this is welcome news. kind of hard to believe.
as we speak, Assange is on US soil, not out of the woods yet.
but the Aussie PM is pro-assange, at least in word. we’ll see.
waiting to see if wikileaks will accept monero (or crypto) for the assange rehabilitation fund and will donate there :)

2fa is a pain in the ass - especially for opsec if they require a mobile number or similar.
the onus is fully on the account holder to set and remember a password (a la private keys - you do use monero right?)
though having your genetic code hacked is pretty 2023 vibes

Canada has an ‘Online Harms’ bill, just like the UK (same name, kinda sus). Promises to be extra draconian.
"… platforms would have to inspect all content — including images posted and remarks made by anyone, domestic or foreign, including Canadian citizens, residents, refugees, and foreign students; confidential and privileged communications between lawyers and clients, and between physicians, psychiatrists and other healthcare professionals and their patients; journalists, academics and anyone else — to judge if it crosses an as-yet undefined ‘hurtful’ threshold or falls into any of the five targeted categories.

yes LLaMA got leaked and has opened up a tool for the people. I see the project openLLaMA making headway in putting out a chatbot ‘for the people’ as opposed to the centralised control. don’t confuse it with LLaMA 2, a confab between mta and mcrosoft which is ‘open source’ but you have to let them have all of your data. seems to be an effort at damage control and to try and still harvest some of the data that people are shovelling into machine learning programs these days. I personally don’t think they’re great at all, far from intelligent and I think they’re going to be bad for humanity down the line. but pandora’s box is open so we might as well democratise by at least breaking the corporate chokehold on A"I".
There is now a perk for donating, a custom emoji. Just wondering @[email protected] regarding custom emojis. have the lemmy team patched the vulnerability?
