Passionate about cooking, traveling, nature photography, animals, technology and privacy.
Addicted to coffee and spicy food.
It’s all FOSS. Whoever gets doubts about the devs can check the source or have it checked by experts. They sell out or die? Switch to other frontends or forks. I’d never trust any dev blindly, but if I can choose between these ones and Google… well.
Switched to piped/invidious. There are even a few good apps like Libretube or Freetube. No need to waste time with scripts and stuff.
Good thing I’m running my LLMs locally on a heavily encrypted PC with no network capabilities at all. Only way to not have my data siphoned, be it by hackers or big tech.
Time to dig out my old horrorpunk discs again.
This. The more popular it gets, the more people come, the more trolls and idiots are beneath them, the more toxic everything gets…

The last one is just a grumpy old guy trying to look badass while realizing he farted a bit too hard in his diapers.
Doom, Wolfenstein 3D and Elite back in the mid-90s. Jagged Alliance 2 and Fallout 2 a few years later got me finally hooked.
Soy proteine, boiling water, some wheat flour, eggs and whatever spices you like. Makes for great burger patties. Don’t have the exact ratio of ingredients in my head right now, though.
I myself find all those industrial meat alternatives pretty disgusting, especially considering what stuff they put in it to make it taste and feel like the real thing.
I’d rather mix my faux-meat myself, even while I’m not completely vegetarian, just almost.
I guess then we have to agree to disagree.
