I am aware. I have been a Thunderbird user for at least 15 years which is why I am unhappy with their general treatment of it over the years as a second class citizen. But at least it is in a better place now.

They are a for-profit company including laying off staff but their CEO still makes CEO money even while the company is struggling. Not to mention if you are trying to degoogle that is where Mozilla makes the bulk of its income. That's just a few things of many, they've also made stupid decisions like leaving Thunderbird out in the cold for years or that whole Colorways thing they wasted time on. Not to mention I don't actually even like Firefox the browser. I use librewolf strictlty out of principle and not because I actually prefer it over chromium. I think it is inferior in most ways but I am opposed to the centralization so here we are.

Hardened by default, no telemetry, no Pocket, virtually everything Mozilla-related removed, and timely updates unlike some other forks. It is like the Ungoogled Chromium equivalent of Firefox. Since I do not like the company it is the perfect option for me.

He uses Arch BTW

Also eventually we will (if not already) be able to generate brand new fake people anyway, so they won't even need the extras. Obviously that won't work for the actual main cast, but for background actors it makes sense. Crowds and far away people have already been done in CGI for over a decade now.

I recommend Jellyfin as well. Open source, local accounts, and no features locked behind a pass. The Jellyfin TV clients are a little more bare bones but the server software itself is pretty much equal nowadays. I have the lifetime Plex Pass but I have moved away from Plex completely now after the direction they've been heading in the last couple of years.

Yeah my comment wasn't a knock at the software or devs. I just think libtorrent v2 is not quite ready for widespread use yet. Since OP is talking people migrating to I2P then it needs to be more stable before that can happen. A few years from now I'm sure it will be a great option.

libtorrent 2 also has some issues. On unRAID for instance it causes crashes so I am forced to use v1 builds. And on other systems it has high memory usage so it's not exactly ready for prime time.

Theoretically they could take those two characters + a salt and then also store that hash. So there it is technically a way to do it although it'd be incredibly redundant, just ask for the actual password at that point.

Theoretically they could hash the the two characters with a salt and store it that way, but extremely unlikely they'd actually do that. And also fairly pointless. But still technically possible.

It is impossible for an AI to cite its sources, at least in the current way of doing things. The AI itself doesn't even know where any particular text comes from. Large language models are essentially really complex word predictors, they look at the previous words and then predict the word that comes next.

When it's training it's putting weights on different words and phrases in relation to each other. If one source makes a certain weight go up by 0.0001% and then another does the same, and then a third makes it go down a bit, and so on-- how do you determine which ones affected the outcome? Multiply this over billions if not trillions of words and there's no realistic way to track where any particular text is coming from unless it happens to quote something exactly.

And if it did happen to quote something exactly, which is basically just random chance, the AI wouldn't even be aware it was quoting anything. When it's running it doesn't have access to the data it was trained on, it only has the weights on its "neurons." All it knows are that certain words and phrases either do or don't show up together often.

The good ol' United States. Most of the major ISPs have caps here and you do not really have multiple choices because they basically have monopolies in their respective areas.
