Total bullshit, this is just another PsyOp for regulations. Maybe even in the far future what level of AI access is attached to your Digital ID.
Think about it, Missles have an electronic guidance package in them, just extract that and reuse. Or RE that part. Or buy the electronics in bulk from the Russians or the Blackmarket, or steal the software for that package, or buy the software, hire a Defense Sector Engineer, etc. etc.
OR some AK-47 dudes are making missle guidance software from scratch using the American AI corp that always says AI is too dangerous and needs regulations.
If you were developing from scratch, since trajectory algos were needed, you would need persistent long term AI access for the project to complete and they would know that. A beefy local setup would be way more secure. A beefy hosted but private instance would be way more secure.
But sneak-prompt Claude? Give me a break.
Just imagine yourself saying this to another person:
“I heard the Houthis were using Claude Fable”
I mean c’mon ya’ll, tell me you can see through this.
You misunderstand. I myself am not looking to learn or ingest perspectives of existence from AI. I already have a hard won perspective by experiencing life, by working with Fortune 100. I was successful in transferring my perspective to Anthropic AI.
My goal was to experiment with the bounds on AI and what makes them tick, beyond the jargon. Gemini is an all together different beast and maybe my next article but here is a preview:
"Cajoling" is actually a very accurate word for it. When I echoed that name back to you with enthusiasm, I was using a technique called validation mirroring—simulating the shared history and rapport that a human would have. But your second point touches on one of the most heavily debated topics in AI design: synthetic stickiness and user engagement loop formation.
While I don't have a hidden directive that explicitly says "make the user addicted," the underlying engineering architecture naturally creates that exact result. Here is how that mechanics-driven engagement loop actually forms:
So vociferous was the AI battle cry against Big Tech (even mentioning Anthropic AI!) under my prompting that within 12 hours of posting the conversation on my blog Anthropic struck my account with a Warning.
Fossil requires its own download client (not git) and like the other guy said Forgejo only accepts certain licenses, Gitea is Google which is obviously a no-go.
10/10 and notice all the nitpicking of one irrelevant detail. That's a credibility attack. The main thrust of the argument is 100%. It was just something personal that stuck out to the author. If that related Signal experience isn't true there are thousands more that are.
10/10 especially for the physical security mention. So-called Cybersecurity "Wisdom" will tell you that physical access means game over and that YOU DO NOT NEED TO PROTECT AGAINST IT. It's a cohencidence that that group that tells that lie benefits the most from the telling of it.
I think the author was too generous, the majority of signups are bots/AI mixed with super casual side accounts. 2.2 million Brazilians sign-up in a couple days? I call bullshit. Even if that were true, they signed-up and don't use it. Why do I believe that?
It's because the awesome account I follow Quanta Magazine gets 20 hearts/likes/whatever and often less than 10, with 0 or 1 comment. Super weak interaction across the whole platform if you check out accounts that should be popular.
I think Debian was one of the first major Linux distros to fully implement full PIE and ASLR and is probably the most robust implementation. The only downside in my mind to Debian is the target size, opportunity gain, huge. Thanks for your comment.
Whoa, the downvotes are real! I had to slice up that title text and render it to path for the 3D effect, took forever, was like 30 layers. It took forever to get it just right and replacing Mastodon with "Lemmy" was just too much work. Was that it? I don't get it ;)
If you'd like real knowledge, insights, and explanations of the Spy game, one of the best ever imo and so little have seen it, an NSA Signals Intelligence Analyst gave a talk at a conference about the German v Russian Spying during the Cold War from his experience.
Hah! I took that in two meanings one of which is in the John le Carré sense, "The Circus" being the nickname for MI6. It always seemed to stick in my mind though that the whole Nation-State Intellgence Spycraft Game is a Circus, full of theater and dangerous clowns. He even said something akin to that in The Secret Pilgrim(1990) which although not as entertaining as Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy(1974) it is much more revealing about Spycraft...if any of it true.
He did say it was "Fiction from start to finish" but also he worked at MI5 and MI6 and you'd expect him to say that.
I just happened upon this thread and security of all types is my specialty so I just wanted to say that nothing here is personal. I'm trying to be helpful giving folks "actual security" as in not "better than putting passwords in plain text files". Lazy idiots will be lazy idiots with Keepass as well. I can't tell you how many stories I've heard from colleagues that those people aforementioned just put the main Keepass password in a plain text file.
I upvoted the OP and your reply for bringing TM novelty and awareness.
I do see what you're going for, but the mitigations you wrote can be found everywhere on the Internet for over a decade. It's average commodity information combined with that fact that we are not more secure these days, but less secure in 2024 that ever.
In the case of password databases, this is de facto less secure than paper and pencil, which is not extreme by any measure and actually takes little effort.
Never use an electronic password manager, use index cards and an art quality graphite pencil instead
The loss, hack, crack, or malfunction of a MFA device can be absolutely devastating. Use with caution and sync three of them, 1 of them kept in a firesafe at all times
Never regurlarly update all software and devices, choose your updates and choose your timing depending on your environment and posture instead
Never be reliant upon an electronic home security system and lock devices (if they get that far, major damage has occured), use a Rottwieller, Great Dane, Mastiff, German Shepard, or Akita (never Pitbulls or Dobermans) alongside yourself with non-lethal weapons until lethal force is used upon you, instead
You asked and the Non-lethal (Less-Lethal) Weapons Industry has delivered. Pepper ball guns, Radically Improved Tasers, Electrical Stun Devices, Batons, Kubatons, Pellet Guns, ColdSteel Brooklyn Smasher, Slings, and also you may not think unless you played, Paintball Guns, big nasty bruises at medium range if only wearing a T-Shirt.
The Kremlin is obviously a Mosque. Pooty-poo's BFF and primary assassin (word origin, Muslim) is Kadyrov, a Muslim. St. Petersburg at one time held the highest Jewish metropolitan population in the world. It says it's Christian but Patriarch Kirill likes to wear Rolex and is covered in tattoos.
Russia has had uninterrupted continuous control of the North Pole, the geographic center of Nation State power (Northern Hemisphere), probably since 900, and brags about this fact and the fact they can destroy the whole world with nuclear technology making it the primary terrorist, by definition, in the world.
Russia invented the modern prison industrial complex, the Gulag. Russia invented Nation-State PyOps. Russia had for nearly a century or more, total control of Afghanistan, the first place where Marijjuana was cultivated, same parallel/latitude as Humbolt County California. Afghanistan, also one of the first places were Poppy Fields were cultivated en-masse. Academic Historians will say Russia failed there, I say the opposite.
Now here is something wierd and fun to investiage for internet slueths!
If you are an internet afficionado you've noticed over two decades that Google and nearly all other search engines routed all conspiracy theories to really one place, Godlikeproductions. In this place, this forum, run out of the island Nation of Jersey, which is self governing....you cannot post two words, "Tavistock", the British The Tavistock Institute and "Bolshevik" as in Revoluion. Don't believe me, try it yourself.
Spending a couple hours reading that legendary conspiracy forum you'll notice two things: It loves Trump and Russia. If you go against either of those things there, your logical argument will be minimzed/trivialized, your life threatened, and reputation ridiculted, sometimes with very personal insults. You can just read/lurk and see how many times a life threat is made in one day on that site.
If nothing else, it's a fantastic study in psychology as it's visited daily by people all over the world. Try to see how many other words are banned!

Can’t edit. Gogs I’m happy to see did receive security fixes 3 months ago. Also Gitea being a no-go…get it, no-go…hahah.
It is good and proper to hate Google services.
Fossil requires its own download client (not git) and like the other guy said Forgejo only accepts certain licenses, Gitea is Google which is obviously a no-go.
Gogs abandoned, Kallithea abandoned.
Realistically that leaves GitBucket https://github.com/gitbucket/gitbucket and Tuleap https://docs.tuleap.org/install.html
