I think we’re somewhat on the same page here.

That means going through an exit node […]

I2P doesn’t have exit nodes. Once you load content from outside the network, that won’t be via I2P, only chance is to get it directly via another connection. For example your default internet connection. So either the browser or operating system is configured to block that. Or you’ll leak your IP.

Then you didn’t have ‘Safest’ mode enabled

Yeah, that’s why I said, use a dedicated browser for that. Something preconfigured to not allow any of that.
Yet better: Use Tails like recommended by Snowden.

Those are called bugs and they do happen […]

I’m not so sure about this… Is “safest” mode really all you need? And does it reliably deal with 100% of the attack vectors? Last time I tried it wasn’t too good for example against browser fingerprinting (which doesn’t reveal an IP, but might be bad as well). And there’s a million ways from WebRTC, to trying to get the IPv6 address if all you did is configure an IPv4 proxy, DNS leaks, browser plugins, the webfont system does a lot of weird things, all the things done to do multimedia are very complex and might offer side-channels, I recently learned how to extract some information with CSS alone, no JS needed… Does “safest” really do a 100% job? I mean what I’ve done until now is to discourage people to mess with their browser settings themselves because it’s (a) easy to make mistakes or miss something, and (b) I wasn’t sure if that setting even does all the heavy-lifting without going into detail with all the other changes for example TOR browser bundle has?!

I’d need to look it up but I think there’s a lot of opportunity without resorting to 0-days.

EDIT […]

Yeah, I think that’s why good (and easy to use) pron sites you’d “recommend to people” aren’t really a thing on there.

And there’s the other thing that horny people might just click “allow” on something, because their brain is currently not in logical thinking mode.

First, this was an I2P link not a Tor .onion link. They are different, non-interoperable anonymity protocols.

True. I wasn’t sure what people use to access I2P sites.

first the whole point of Tor and I2P both is that nobody knows your IP address. Not even the website operator.

Sure. And then they load some resource via the clearnet and get your IP address anyway. Or use WebRTC, or one of the several other methods to squeeze an IP out of a browser.

Lastly, if you’re taking the trouble to use Tor or I2P in the first place – turn off javascript.

And now your porn site doesn’t show videos anymore 😁 I have a hunch, this is one of the two reasons why there aren’t any good porn sites around… Despite OP not liking that answer…

I think you need some Agent software. Or a MCP server for your existing software. It depends a bit on what you’re doing, whether that’s just chatting and asking questions that need to be googled. Or vibe coding… Or query the documents on your computer. As I said there’s OpenClaw which can do pretty much everything including wreck your computer. I’m also aware of OpenCode, AutoGPT, Aider, Tabby, CrewAI, …

The Ollama projects has some software linked on their page: https://github.com/ollama/ollama?tab=readme-ov-file#chat-interfaces
They’re sorted by use-case. And whether they’re desktop software or a webinterface. Maybe that’s a good starting point.

What you’d usually do is install it and connect it to your model / inference software via that software’s OpenAI-compatible API endpoint. But it frequently ends up being a chore. If you use some paid service (ChatGPT), they’ll contract with Google to do the search for you, Youtube, etc. And once you do it yourself, you’re gonna need all sorts of developer accounts and API tokens, to automatically access Google’s search API… You might get blocked from YouTube if you host your software on a VPS in a datacenter… That’s kinda how the internet is these days. All the big companies like Google and their competitors require access tokens or there won’t be any search results. At least that was my experience.

Yeah. If you’re clever you use some TOR browser bundle or something like that to access the Darknet. Not only for security. You also void your anonymity / privacy once you use just any random regular browser.

The Darknet is a bit of a mixture of people who use it for legitimate purposes, people who tinker around, and some shady people and trolls. So you’d expect some chance of someone trying to use JavaScript against you, or leverage other browser techniques to leak your IP etc… It’s not a frequent thing by any means, but it’s a possibility.

Thanks! I didn’t know about these. I was just aware of Apertus from the Swiss National AI Iniative. But from my experience, they weren’t great. Might look into Olmo 3, then.

Are you stupid? Why do you down-vote everyone giving you answers to your question?

Yeah, I don’t think porn is where TOR or I2P shines. You’ll find a better selection on Pornhub. Or a clearnet image board / Reddit if pictures are your thing. And by the way: Pornhub used to have a TOR mirror: http://pornhubthbh7ap3u.onion/ Seems to be down, though. At least it doesn’t load for me.

WebUSB and WebSerial are super useful to flash microcontrollers and IoT devices as well. It’s one of the reasons I keep a Chromium browser on my laptop.

Hehe, ja beides Gold 😆. Das mit dem “(dermatologisch) getestet”, hab ich mich tatsächlich auch schon gefragt… Ja und was kam bei dem Test raus? Wenn es ein “sehr gut” und wirksam, von rennomiertem Institut oder Stiftung Warentest war, hättet ihr es sicher abgedruckt… Also das kann schon mal nicht das Testresultat gewesen sein 😒

Na, Werbung soll dich manipulieren. Deswegen nutzt es manipulative Strategien. Wenn jemand das Beste Produkt kaufen wollte, würde er/sie Stiftung Warentest lesen. Aber das sollen die Leute ja nicht, sie sollen stattdessen das Produkt von einer bestimmten Firma kaufen. Und nicht nur das, gerne auch Kram, den sie eigentlich gar nicht brauchen.

Ist auch schwierig da eine klare Grenzlinie zu finden. Also Lügen sind ja eigentlich nicht erlaubt. Aber es liegt sicherlich in der Natur der Sache, dass die Werbenden sich so viel wie irgend möglich rausholen.

We got open-source agents like OpenCode. OpenClaw is weird, and not really recommended by any sane person, but to my knowledge it’s open source as well. We got a silly(?) “clean-room rewrite” of the Claude Agent, after that leaked…

Regarding the models, I don’t think there’s any strictly speaking “FLOSS” models out there with modern tool-calling etc. You’d be looking at “open-weights” models, though. Where they release the weights under some permissive license. The training dataset and all the tuning remain a trade secret with pretty much all models. So there is no real FLOSS as in the 4 freedoms.

Google dropped a set of Gemma models a few days ago and they seem pretty good. You could have a look at Qwen 3.5, or GLM, DeepSeek… There’s a plethora of open-weights models out there. The newer ones pretty much all do tool-calling and can be used for agentic tasks.

Thanks for the link.

I think we’re going in circles now. My previous comments had been addressing the paper and the methodology. Then you wanted to discuss the video instead, I gave you my opinion on the video. And now you want to discuss the paper again. Please read my previous comments, I already wrote it down.

And “correlation of what?” is a fair question

Also, calling it “garbage” without engaging the actual analysis […]

I think it’s the most important question. And entirely absent from the video. And no amount of added word vomit rectifies that. Hence “garbage video”.

Let me phrase it another way: There’s a standing stone in the forest here, 3km away. Let’s measure how it “pushes”. Oh, at 9.81 m/s², just like my human body pushes into the ground. Even the direction vector is nearly the same. My human body and that stone must be linked?! Correlation almost 1.0? Let’s do more measurements, let’s measure the light coming off from the stone and my skin. Wow! Same absorption lines in it! Me and the stone might share a consciousness??!? And even in the temporal domain, if I’m standing in my backyard, both me and the standing stone 3km away get wet and dry pretty much at the same time, same intervals. Non-locality? Are me and the stone the same thing?

Certainly not. And I didn’t invent a new field of science here. You could do the peer-review with middle-school science knowledge. And none of that is “spurious-correlations” or lose relationships. All these three things are hard facts. They’re not spurious at all. They are indeed connected!

You’re doing the same here as me proving I’m linked to my Hinkelstein. You’d now need to explain why an EEG and quantum states. Why this measurement. Why ricci curvature. To a layman like me you’d even need to explain what a ricci curvature is, and why it applies in this specific set of circumstances. And where does this correlation come from? Ruling out “spurious” things does nothing, scientifically. I mean in my Hinkelstein isn’t reflecting random light either, or getting wet, spuriously. I can in fact prove there is a real link and I happen to know the cause(s). That’s where the science comes in.

Not sure how easy it is to sample a digital signal that fast. The specs say it’s 350ns - 800ns. So my calculator says that’s about 3MHz. I don’t think noise etc will be an issue. And an opendrain input should be fine and not mess with the bus. You’ll likely have to find a good approach to read at that speed. Or find a suitable peripheral.

The correct tool might be an oscilloscope / logic analyzer.

But maybe have a look at some projects like “micro logic analyzer for RP2040”, seems it’s possible to sample digital signals up to 100MHz. There’s several projects like that out there. But I think the correct search term is “RP2040 logic analyzer”.

I don’t think a lot of people “sniff” some WS2812 bus. You can have a look at other project’s code to generate all sorts of effects.

Sure. Germany has an arms industry. We sell submarines, Leopard tanks, drones… And they’re used all around the world for destruction and to kill people.

Yes. Thx, I forgot about that. Especially the insides. You probably want to have a look inside, if the outside already looks that dirty. And the case / outside is probably fine with some light zapping. It went through ESD testing and certification. And should be able to deal with electrostatic discharge in some way. But the (individual) components on the inside are way more delicate and not made to withstand it.

Too long for Lemmy’s attention span. People start down-voting again, without reading all the later parts where she realizes she’s been turned into a Tamagotchi?!

Air blower, Q-Tip, Toothpick? And Isopropanol is the cleaning fluid of choice for electronics. I’ve also used my vacuum on Thinkpads before. But beware the vacuum. If anything is just tucked in, it’ll dislodge it and suck it in. And you get to spend the next 20min trying to find some tiny part in a pile of dust and hairballs.

I’ll try to lecture people. I think it’s moronic to just down-vote them again. I mean they’re obviously not getting it. So another down-vote makes the situation even worse. And they’re obviously, actively asking to learn something. So the correct approach is to tell them… There’s one big exception: If they’re baiting. But it’s usually fairly easy to tell by their comment history.

I think last time I did curry, I just added more vegetables. I like for example cauliflower. Added a bit later so it has some texture left to it. Not sure if that goes into karē raisu, but curry sounds like an invitation (to me) to put in whatever I like. Tofu or vegan chicken alternative, probably fits as well.
