  • If you want true privacy, don’t use technology, stay hidden, don’t hear/speak/see anything. Of course, then you’ll inevitably be a statistic of people trying to achieve true privacy, which often ironically puts you on lists of people who might be suspects of allegations… Just hope they don’t ever figure out a 100% accurate way to telepathically read your mind :)







  • I get good mileage out of the Jan client and Void editor, various models will work but Jan-4B tends to do OK, maybe a Meta-Llama model could do alright too. The Jan client has settings where you can start up a local OpenAI-compatible server, and Void can be configured to point to that localhost URL+port and specific models. If you want to go the extra mile for privacy and you’re on a Linux distro, install firejail from your package manager and run both Void and Jan inside the same namespace with outside networking disabled so it only can talk on localhost. E.g.: firejail --noprofile --net=none --name=nameGoesHere Jan and firejail --noprofile --net=none --join=nameGoesHere void, where one of them sets up the namespace (–name=) and the other one joins the namespace (–join=)



  • Yeah, I see what you mean. That makes sense. After reading through some common OSS licenses, I can see the difference between licenses that require you not to modify the license notification, versus software that explicitly forbids certain changes. But, given how little funding OSS projects get, I’m not bothered by the idea that they want to make sure people financially contribute to the original creators. After all, if someone does fork it and do a better job, they could easily just put their own donate button higher up above the original one.
