I checked Proton Lumo, it’s private, but not very good, answers mostly BS, AI is not a strong side of Proton. DuckAI is a nice and usable one, Brave not so.

Download an AI isn’t a so good idea, because to be reliable, it need a huge amount of data and processing power, which a normal PC don’t have. Downloaded AI which work locally are by definition very basic and limited. When selfhosted versions use online sources, they need a huge amount of bandwith. An reliable AI need an huge datacenter and webaccess, because this, the question for the user is the privacy of the AI service. The mencioned Apertus fullfit all the aspects of reliability and privacy. History of questions and results are stored locally, easy to delete, answers by own knowledge base or by permitting web access, with answers including the links of sources. 100% free to use and EU made.

Swiss PublicAI by Apertus, FOSS, made by the Swiss National Supercomputer Centre (CSCS) also used by the CERN. Possible selfhosting (~90 GB basic Data), up to 70 billion parameters, trained on 15 trillion tokens across more than 1,000 languages. Strict privacy centred.

Good sound to play at midnight

Well, until now almost all articles I read in AJ are well contrastable, less biased as much other western media.

I never trust what people say about what they are or what they are going to do, only what they really do. But I think that Mamdani is an advance and better as Rpublican alternatives. Despite this, as Major he is very limited to do anything with a whole country gov, media and corporations against him.

The word National Socialism is misleading, it was invented by Hitler, which has nothing to do with socialistic philosophy, it’s the idea of an society of the elite, the most extreme version of capitalism neo-liberal, feudalism 2.0. If it had something to do with socialism, big corporations and billonairs wouldn’t foment and support it. Trump give the best example of National “Socialist” policy, emulating step for step the policy of Germany in the 1930th, cooking the frog with propaganda and misinformation, until it was and now it is almost to late to change. Even when Mamdani honestly try to change something, he has to defeat first all the media, judges, police forces full in the hand of these nazis, with a huge support of stupid (and armed) MAGA hillbillies, yihaaaa. That he won the ellection as Major are good news, but he’s alone against a country, even with people of the own party against him. Hard times with a little sparkle of light at the end of the tunel.

Well, power measure the rate of energy transfer, anyway Ws is not the same as W.

But real OpenSource, not OpenSource made by Google, M$, Fakebook, Amazon & cia, which are spawning everywhere to spread their inbuild tracking APIs.

Only summarized correctly, for those who don’t want to leave Lemmy to read the article without knowing about it.

Watt is an Energy unit, period, as electrical unit, as in this case, it’s W=VA(δ), only as work/kinetic unit it’s W = J/s = Nm/s = kgm²*s^-³

Summary

Microsoft has admitted it cannot protect EU citizen data from U.S. government access, even when stored in European data centers. In sworn testimony before a French Senate inquiry in June 2025, Microsoft France’s legal director Anton Carniaux stated “No, I cannot guarantee” that French citizen data would never be transmitted to U.S. authorities without explicit French authorization^[1].

The admission stems from the U.S. CLOUD Act, which compels American companies to hand over user data regardless of where it is stored^[1:1]. While Microsoft claims to resist “unfounded” requests, they must ultimately comply with legally valid U.S. demands^[2].

This revelation has significant implications for European data sovereignty, as U.S. firms control 69% of Europe’s cloud infrastructure^[1:2]. The issue affects all major U.S. cloud providers - Microsoft, Google, and AWS must all comply with U.S. surveillance laws including FISA, the CLOUD Act, and Executive Order 12333^[2:1].

European officials worry this creates dangerous dependencies, as sensitive government, healthcare and business data could be accessed without EU oversight^[3]. Some experts advocate shifting to EU-based providers operating solely under European jurisdiction^[2:2].

Well, it’s clear that the EU can’t avoid leaking data to the US, when they continue using US Cloud providers, irrelevant if they use MS, Google or any other. They can force MS to have OneDrive desactivated by default, let the choice to the user if he want to use it or any other EU provider, if he can’t o won’t to use Linux, but there is the same problem when he use US cloud providers, is there where tha data are property of the corresponding company and the gov “to protect the childrem and making America great again”

EU sovereignty in soft an services, better yesterday as tomorrow, FTUS

Well, if they want to emulate Hitler, than, please, in all.

Yes, but dangerous

I remeber an eyeball on a stick, used in some movies for biometric scans.

Naturally, because it isn’t encrypted, not so good for sharing sensible information, that is the only risk. Despite that you see my message in your console, it isn’t possible for me to access through this to your PC, nor that you can access to my data with it, apart of the sended text, which can see anybody with the finger link. But it’s a curiosity and the ancestor of the P2P, nice to prank your friends and for fans of vintage computing, because it’s way older as the internet we know. Apart it’s so old, that it isn’t anymore in the focus of govs and hackers, it’s like sending messages with Morse or with an FAX.

It’s not true, certainly can restrict the installing of certain apps which need admin privilegs, but it’s a malware scan beginning with the boot sector, avoiding root kit malware.
