First, train yourself to get suspicious every time you see simplicity. Any claim that the root of a problem is simple should be treated the same as a claim that the root of a problem is Bigfoot. Simplicity and Bigfoot are found in the real world with about the same frequency.

Edit: it looks like there is a voice input only app they make that is separate, that is what I use. https://voiceinput.futo.org/

Did you mean “but”? Helioboard is a full-blown keyboard if I remember, and FUTO is offline voice LLM only, with multiple language support. I only speak English but it works great. It’s not a keyboard that types, you just click it when you want to speak.

Good stuff. Not thought about enough. GPS spoofing random routes also.

Do a lot of reading. Get a cyber informations systems basics overview on your own self-teaching before you try to understand it all.

Stay away from session and matrix. Signal, Nostr, SimpleX (nvm if you use Apple products) and the like are okay, but they are all hobbyist influencable products besides Signal which gets fat government grants and just happens to use the same encryption standards as all other huge name E2EE tools.

Stuff is fun to learn on, but get a good VPN (debates about… mullvad, ivpn, cryptostorm seem okay). here’s something fun for you and free: https://www.thc.org/segfault/

I don’t know why but I’ve got this strange tingling feeling it might just be a human nature group thing.

Then maybe you’re okay.

A number of people can see your IP, people will chime in and add to ane remove from this list:

Can’t see it:

• Random people you personal message with
• Random people you chat with in rooms

CAN see it:

• Server admins
• People you share (send/rcv files with) // this may have been fixed
• People who send you links and you click them, but this isn’t specific to Matrix, it’s a tale as old as time.
• You voice call with someone (may have been fixed)

Some info may be wrong. But having someone’s IP in the days of routers and all filtered ports means little, unless you piss off someone who knows some low level customer support person @ your ISP to pay to get your account info. Or you’re dealing drugs in which case use TAILS and stop fucking with technologies you don’t know the specifics of.

If they knock you offline and you can’t access anything at all, unplug your router AND MODEM (most importantly your modem) for an hour. Go touch grass for an hour. Widdle a wee branch. Plus your boxes back in and you’ll be bright as new.

@possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip this isn’t meant to be a dig at you, although last time you didn’t care to correct or learn if I recall,but often times you leave out the “if so,” “possibly, what and XYZ?'” and it ends up spreading misinformation because you didn’t know enough or care enough to type enough.

I love Matrix but we need to be open about what the fish is before skinning it…

Just something to keep in mind for those not in the security space. When a security company does an audit, its generally a checklist of commercial and custom security software along with a couple people poking around looking for more manual harder to find stuff. But there’s a reason companies like Mullvad have a bug bounty program… Just because cure53 didn’t find it, it doesn’t mean some bored hacker won’t…

Absolutely better than nothing though.

I assume the problem is hardware. Matt’s hardware didn’t work well with LM, therefore Matt thinks LM sucks… I do wish there was better hardware support but it’s the reason apple went with 1 product = 1 OS = 1 general set of hardware. Sure not every iPhone has the same hardware, but that’s why they have the model numbers, and it’s so much easier to test 200 model mixes than 2,000,000 (Android). Windows gets all the debug info sent directly to them like the others but they also have a huge stack of hardware they can use or they can buy it to test.

FUTO is the greatest use of on-device LLM so far. It never gets anything wrong, even my thought markers “…”

This should have been much more well thought out The wording, image, buttons, specific wording for each page.

They really screwed the pooch.

Another 4-6 months minimum before release. But quarterly numbers must be met.
