It’s not good.

But it’s leagues better than crypto.

I hate typing ‘asymmetric key cryptography’, and GPG is just three letters.

Those blog posts explain a lot, but one use case is missing (at least I don’t see it apart from git commit signing), and that is verifying the source of a public message.

And I do wish we tried using the private keys more. Specially now when anyone can deepfake anything.

If I ever release my nudes, never trust them unless they are signed and you can check them with public key in my profile.

Just like the rest of us

Just fucking sign it. With your private key.

And publish your public key.

Then everyone will be able to verify it’s your work, and no deepfake will ever pass that test.

Sorry for blowing this on you, but fuck blockchain, fuck NFTs.

What we need is better understanding of cryptography.

PGP has solved this problems decades ago, and crypto has just borrowed some parts, but made it worse in every possible way and into incomprehensible depths.

Again, fuck crypto, fuck NFTs.

I should make a guide on how to use GPG.

Altman is a megalomanic psychopath, lying to steal even more money and break everything just to feel better about himself.

Many (probably most) jobs are bullshit jobs just to make the economy roll.

If we skipped the middleman, and just fed everyone, we would cost environmental costs by 90%.

That’s oddly specific…

In Europe we pay like $6-8 per gallon, some countries may be paying even more.

We just need to build trains everywhere. That will solve all of our problems in this category.

I agree with you!

You just have a weird way of agreeing.

Yes, and so may BYD. I have no idea what are you arguing for.

Even big companies ran gigantic losses for years, just to undercut the competition and emerge as the only winner.

Some do it because they have other cash cows Epic store milking Fortnite), others have VC funding, like Uber.

How in the fuck is Rafael Cancun Cruz still in politics?

Like how much more proof do we need to see that people are fucking stupid?

The problem is the owners don’t pay their fair share, nothing else.

Productivity has risen to cover everything.

LLMs only hallucinate.

Sometimes those hallucinations correlate with reality.

Oh man, can you imagine that??

Glad none of this ever happened before, right???

It’s so sweet that we want to act like anyone cares about our Lemmy history.

I mean if there was anyone harasses IRL for posting here, hit me up with a link.

But comparing Facebook to Lemmy is kind of funny.

What you seem to not understand is that weapons ARE a security net.

Just look at Palestine.

The ‘better’ is not giving US more money.

Yes.

I dream of that every night.

But you know what they say, don’t let ‘perfect’ be the enemy of ‘good’.
