Photoshop as in the general concept of editing photos? Sure. There are a lot of decent tools out there, including for mobile devices.

Photoshop as in use the proprietary Photoshop UI? Probably not.

With tungsten cubes apparently. Lots and lots of tungsten cubes!

I fucking loath LinkedIn! I don’t go on there much, but every time I do it’s 99% shameless self-promotion using vapid, one-dimensional content that’s wrapped in a thin veneer of motivational speech bullshit.

How do many people can’t see through it (let alone tolerate it) is beyond me. LinkedIn embodies so much of what’s wrong with modern society.

JavaScript, AJAX, and modern web frameworks have pushed us away from displaying information in a pure and clean way. We need to go back to a better time!

Looks at no-HTML websites

Shit, we’ve gone back too far!

Exactly!

Screw that. Give the government a way to track my vitals 24/7 and sell that information off to their cronies in the private sector? No thanks.

That’s not how knowledge works. You can’t just have an LLM hallucinate in missing gaps in knowledge and call it good.

The bombing actually makes the chances of regime change even harder. There’s nothing like being attacked by a foreign adversary to galvanize support for an authoritarian regime.

Pretty good advice. Although they are probably recommending that for more than just it being a Meta data farming scam.

Awesome, thanks for the tips!

I started down the Jellyfin path after they made that announcement. It’s super easy to install, and in many ways the UI is nicer than Plex. But I ran into challenges getting my server safely accessible for users outside my LAN. And I haven’t had the time to look into that further.

Would be great if there was a clean, easy way to set up the webserver portion so it’s as easy to share content entirely as Plex. But I get they are a volunteer project with a lot on their plate.

Good news good Signal.

I’m actually surprised they apologized. I’d have expected them to threaten the family and charge them for their time.

I hope it’s going to get maintained each year.

Accelerando is such a weird but excellent novel.

Okay, that makes more sense. Thanks for the explanation.

TIL Ghostery had their own browser.

Sell them for pennies to the US military. They can use them as incendiary devices.

“Good news kids! You are being adopted by my shitty, invasive LLM! You won’t need real parents or a home because you will each have your own virtual ‘mom’ who can you give shallow encouragement and inaccurate, hallucinated data. And all you need to do to keep your new moms alive alive is do data entry drudge work for 20 hours a day to feed them!”

Oh maybe it is only FOSS.
