Jackass.

I just meant xmr but https://localmonero.co/lolks closed.

But it’s the same for any crypto here.

I wanted to start using Monero. But found I have no way of buying it in my country without giving gov ID to the exchange.

Some Know Your Customer legalities. Fucking sucks.

The only other way is sketchy P2P trade sites where you have to trust the person at the other end.

What’s with the A in this font. Kinda looks AI generated.

Even if it’s not. I don’t wanna live in a world where I question this shit.

Concrete the washer into the wall.

When I watched about 5 maker videos in a row. Each one was struggling with a build. Then they all say “now until this point I had being using AI and realised it was lying to me/from the start. After searching the web for 20mins I found the answer” I genuinely said wtf out loud.

Shamefully I’ve also done this myself.

Its gernly not faster to seek information via LLMs even when they give you links to the data they’ve referenced.

I’ve also seen a high level exec use it to make a 10year department plan in the 5 minutes before a meeting.

Also both staff and managers using it for their relevant parts of performance reviews. They could just skip the review altogether and save time.

One thing we can do is stop calling it AI. It’s just a LLM and complex guessing machine.

Somethings (like performance reviews) need to be explicitly declared to NOT use AI.

SmaetTuhe sorry. https://github.com/yuliskov/smarttube

Its YT front end that works on big screen format and can easily navigate with a remote.

It has sponsor block and other things built in.

Can logon with YT account if you like.

The annincment on the GitHub is quite old.

Lemmy has spoken.

Tubular is NewPipe with sponsor block. PipePipe is Tubular with more features and faster updates, I belive it’s a hard fork but incoperates NewPipe/Tubular updates.

NewPipe < Tubular < PipePipe

Shout out to SmartTV for all of the same on Android TV.

Could also be that and 15yrs old. Just a theory.

The one on the right is patent.

Where do I get this app.

Are questions memes now?

Can you elaborate on how to get get Monero and hide then transaction from BigData/Gov?

I’ve seen some of the basic steps but I imagine the Gov/Bank see me transfer money to a Monero.

They see that Monero account pay for ServiceX. They then see ServiceX coming from my IP (a VPN might precent this). Or they see ServiceX used by an account that is linked to me. Or they see a number of services paid for by the same Monero account.

Using a VPN is not always possible.

I’ve also seen machines that take cash but imagine these have CCTV to prevent theft and many link to me even harder.

Dominated by popular culture, brands, platform-speak, and non-words. Tokenization is, therefore, a political act: it defines what can be represented and how the world becomes computationally representable.

Welcome to 1984

I’m glad for the switch. Buuuut it doesn’t work like that.

You search cars heavily. You and your Mum have FB/social media. You have Bluetooth or location or WiFi on. Social knows your hanging out and likely to discuss cars. It shows them ads.

A tech podcast did a dive into this. It even works if your partner and mum arnt connected on social media. Imagine your Mum lives interstate. Mum searches plane tickets and is coming in a month, during the time she searches perfumes but doesn’t buy. A few days before arrival your partner gets perfume ads from a place nearby. When mum lands she talks about getting perfume. Partner has been primed where to go.

Its insidious. Graphine will help a little but if you use the internet there is still tracking.

My phone carrier requires an app to change plans. I installed it in a separate profile then the next day got ads for it in FB.

I thought the us takeover was only for the app in us, and other countries were not affected. But I don’t use it so haven’t been flowing closely.
