Artwork

This is not just a Linux distro. It’s a satellite drifting through the universe of code and possibility - for you, for everyone, forever free…
Built with ❤️ by one developer, for the entire world.

I believe you are an artist, who uses their own hands, and this is already an incredible miracle… This is wat Thank you, heartfelt, for being and artist!

Meanwhile, please consider sharing about it at !modabuse@lemmy.sdf.org; it must be a misunderstanding. I had a relatively similar case, but still no response, too: https://lemmy.world/comment/22144335 (Yet, Lemmy is sure a place, too… where you may get inhumanly banned…)

Please don’t worry much, it will be alright… You just keep doing what you do, practice, and draw/express your experience, brilliance!
Something whispers, that you’ll be eventually fine and successful.

Oh! I see! Just in case, Traefik has great options for debugging, and logging (e.g. TRACE log level)! Not to mention custom plugins! There’s a great Discourse based forum, and there’s both IRC and Discord Communities, too! Though, you might have already checked those!

For the reverse-proxy you may find Traefik marvelous, in case if Nginx/HAproxy is too featureful for the case.

Thank you… heartfelt… for an actually mature and adequate attempt for rationalization of the state of events…
Unfortunately, it seems the propaganda and children raising through local movies and socials with history retelling is too deep… some just do not care and consume, sorry, what they got used to and were raised with - lies, to the point they deny anything unmatching.

His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.

The essential English leadership secret does not depend on particular intelligence. Rather, it depends on a remarkably stupid thick-headedness. The English follow the principle that when one lies, one should lie big, and stick to it. They keep up their lies, even at the risk of looking ridiculous.

I did not ever initiate any such discussions, but expressed my opinions in comments only suggesting people to do their actual research. If they would, they would not say a word knowing how it’s all unobvious and intervened, where every single action is done with utter seriousness of calculation of required political, social, economical outcomes.

Yes, I did step on fields, with numerous colleagues I share my gratitude, support, and love to. Please do stay safe, dear every single Hero…
This is me:

Thank you! Fixed!

There are numerous options to choose from already existing… Yet, some should just consider that the recent “age verification” were initiated for another purpose than a general age verification process. Have you checked out the recent Persona source code exposed?

Regardless, some civilian approaches to be mentioned is how the verification is handled in Baltic countries, that is Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, for example:

Smart-ID is the easiest, safest and fastest way to authenticate yourself online, register in e-services and sign documents…
Smart-ID can be used to log in to e-services, for online banking and for signing documents.

Smart-ID itself has no age restrictions for its users – but age limits have been set by identity providers and depend on the Smart-ID account type and authentication method chosen…

Creating a Smart-ID account for a minor requires a parent/legal guardian to authenticate their account…

For the API, for instance:

# Where can I find users date of birth?

Birth of date is encoded into personal identity code. Latvian new personal identity code format is exception though. Special birth of date field will be added to Smart-ID certificates in stages and only for Qualified accounts.

For convinience smart-id-java-client and smart-id-php-client have special function getDateOfBirth… for that. For getting that info directly from certificate see getDateOfBirthCertificateAttribute and getDateOfBirthFromCertificateField.

Source

Similar to Latvia, the number of Estonia and Lithuania has the date of infinitely magnificent event as someone’s date of birth, too!

The ways in which such a system is implemented vary among countries, but in most cases citizens are issued an identification number upon reaching legal age, or when they are born…

In Estonia, a Personal Identification Code (Estonian: isikukood, abbreviated as IK) is formed on the basis of the sex and date of birth of a person…

In Lithuania the Personal Code (Lithuanian: asmens kodas) consists of 11 digits, and currently is in the form G YYMMDD NNN C, where G is gender & birth century, YYMMDD is the birthday, NNN is a serial number, C is a checksum digit…
/* ... */ C = lt_nin_checksum("3840915201");

Therefore, there should be an option to verify the age without the personal identification code. And if not, just a personal number got within the age verification scope, transferred within secure government session channel, should be enough. The government, in turn, won’t share such information with untrusted services - access to the API.

Wait… there’s no LLM/AI nonsensical utter bloody-void horrible mess?
My gracious holy smokes… THANK YOU!!! Thank you… from the very depths of my heart… and soul… for making something that is actually important… that is for human…

Thank you, dear @expyth0n@lemmy.world for the marvel… art… you do…

There’s still belief in effort, education, human, art… in the purpose…

In order to not get the “meter collapsed”, some do suggest to actually not trust news as the raw source, where every single word in line is designed for its specific reader. Regardless the amount of true intel inside, everyone will see its own, and behind the lines, too.

In this case, I would suggest to actually personally investigate more about the situation from Russian’s, Ukraine’s, US’s, and yours country government’s side, without relying on “news” you seem to doing much, sorry. Please do consider the presence of Overton windows and opportunities to manipulate the flow of reader/nation decisions.

Politics rarely create friendships, if compared to business benefits in long term, unfortunately.

The origins of my 20-year art career were not that different from many other artists. I started learning the craft by seeking out inspirational artworks, and it is something I continue to do…

Inaccurate reproductions of art can betray the intentions that artists had for their works. Inaccurate reproductions of art can betray the intentions that artists had for their works. Artists use their passions to create original art, with the intention of offering the viewer a unique vision and experience.
As an artist, I spend a good deal of time determining the best way to approach my work. Coming up with the original idea is just the first step. I also have to consider which medium would be best to explore the idea, materials to use with it, and the size of the work. Imagine how insignificant a landscape would be on a postcard, or how ridiculously terrifying a wall-sized closeup of a single human eye would be. I also consider if I want to paint in a lot of detail, or leave the brush strokes more open.
All of these thoughts, and many more, are planned in an effort to get a reaction emotionally from the viewer…

A reproduction can show the general idea of art, but it can not offer the unique experience of reflecting on the full story that an original piece offers. Original artworks feature textures, lighting differences, and environments evoking the emotions that the artist intended.

Seeing an original piece of art in a museum is a unique, transcendent experience, substantially better than any reproduction could possibly be. With reproductions being produced with the wrong resolution, terrible and inaccurate colors, and of bad quality, the experience of seeing reproduced art betrays the emotion and intent that the artist wanted to create.
The original artwork can educate about techniques, colors, and even movements within art history. Original pieces offer admiration of the artist, and reflection for the viewer, in unique and environmental ways that simply are not possible online or with printed reproductions.

To truly see artwork, to find the experience that the artist wanted the viewer to have, finding the original piece of art is the best way to live through artwork.

We show that large language models can be used to perform at-scale deanonymization.

With full Internet access, our agent can re-identify Hacker News users and Anthropic Interviewer participants at high precision, given pseudonymous online profiles and conversations alone, matching what would take hours for a dedicated human investigator. We then design attacks for the closed-world setting.

Given two databases of pseudonymous individuals, each containing unstructured text written by or about that individual, we implement a scalable attack pipeline that uses LLMs to:
- 1. extract identity-relevant features,
- 2. search for candidate matches via semantic embeddings, and
- 3. reason over top candidates to verify matches and reduce false positives…

Our second dataset matches users across Reddit movie discussion communities; and the third splits a single user’s Reddit history in time to create two pseudonymous profiles to be matched. In each setting, LLM-based methods substantially outperform classical baselines, achieving up to 68% recall at 90% precision compared to near 0% for the best non-LLM method.

Our results show that the practical obscurity protecting pseudonymous users online no longer holds and that threat models for online privacy need to be reconsidered…

This application is a must to have in these countries, since there’s just too many limitations without it. For example, in case you need to access a Bank abroad without the “PIN-Calculator” and SMS. Otherwise, there’s digitalized ID Card option, which then supports NFC and common card readers you could connect to a portable USB card reader. Yet, it also requires a biometry to create one: https://www.migracija.lt/ (I want to get the personal identity card and/or the passport of the Republic of Lithuania…)

Perhaps, we travel or live in too different regions, and where I usually adventure it’s already required to have an ID, also frequently backed by biometric data, to be stored at Government’s databases.

Using Smart-ID for personal identification is free, totally unlimited and you can download the app on all of your Android and iOS smart devices…
Or, if you feel more comfortable doing it in a bank, take your national identification document like a passport or an ID-card with you and visit your local bank office for identity validation…

What’s more, you can use Smart-ID to access e-services from your other devices too. Say you prefer to use a computer for your online banking and you have Smart-ID on your smartphone. No worries, you can use Smart-ID on both. You can login to e-services using your computer and the smart device, or the smart device only…

Oh no no no no no…
Please, God, Gods, or whoever, no…

I absolutely don’t want my descendants to talk with some void-empty limited bloody-meatground utter nonsense… I don’t want that freaking awful mess of terribly limited data to talk with my children or their children possibly framing and damaging their true memories and genuine confidence in me I had been developing the whole life… I don’t want them to remember the algorithm or some imitation of me talking with a machine or some chat bot… no… never… please no… PLEASE NO…
No…
No…
Never…
No…

Some limited inhuman stupid chat/voice/avatar/anything bot? No…
Some bot that may erroneously represent me behind my back?
Never…
Some nonsense that may reshape memories of my ancestors?
No…
Never…
No…

If I am dead, I am dead. I want my descendants to just remember me, talk to me in their memories, real videos, audios, and photos, my effort, my ideas and love in artwork if ever they’ll be interested… and once in a while visit the grave, at least 2-3 times per their life, if ever possible… and that’s it…

If I am dead, I am dead as my ancestors are, who are not dead for me being alive but in my memories or something more magnificent/supernatural, and how I remember them, where they wanted to be the best they could, respected, glorified, and admired, without disturbing them in memories, soul, and the heart they gifted me, who I will always appreciate, respect, and love…

Since end-to-end encryption is still relatively new in commercial services, it seems that no one had ever examined it in detail before…

Oh really?! Tell me about it!

In addition to KeePass, some may find “Pass” interesting, that is based on GnuPG - https://www.passwordstore.org/

Microsoft said this new variation of ClickFix uses DNS as a “lightweight staging or signaling channel,” enabling the threat actor to reach infrastructure under their control, as well as erect a new validation layer before executing the second-stage payload…
Using DNS in this way reduces dependency on traditional web requests and can help blend malicious activity into normal network traffic…
The downloaded payload subsequently initiates an attack chain that leads to the download of a ZIP archive from an external server…

Self-hosted deployments won’t include any traces of Plutonium, and nothing is paywalled. You can still configure your own tiers and limits in the admin panel.

Thanks for bearing with me. Development on Fluxer is about to get much easier, and the project will be made sustainable through community contributions and bounties for development work. Stay tuned – there’s not much left now.

I thought I could take it a bit easier while shipping this stabilising update, but Discord’s recent announcement has changed things.

As soon as the refactor is live, I’ll interact more actively and push updates to this repository more frequently. The remaining parts of the refactor are currently being worked on and are being tested by a small group of testers before I’m comfortable pushing everything publicly. After that, all work will happen openly in public.

To support the case, I moved when got shadow-banned and never received any response:

Yet, Lemmy is sure a place, too… where you may get inhumanly banned just like a biomass, too… For example, relatively recently, I was banned on some Community for literally odd reason, and never got any response from their moderators in 2 private messages I sent regarding it:
