    If it ask for your phone number its not private.

  • You are very naive if you think that a company located un the US can provide an encrypted messaging service that can be used by anyone including terrorists, druglords and US enemies without the government being able to access the messages. Lavabit was a famous case and had to shutdown because its founder rejected to comply with an order from the US government to grant access to information. If you are using centralized communication service located in the US forget about privacy.

    ”Lavabit is believed to be the first technology firm that has chosen to suspend or shut down its operation rather than comply with an order from the United States government to reveal information or grant access to information.[3] Silent Circle, an encrypted email, mobile video and voice service provider, followed the example of Lavabit by discontinuing its encrypted email services.[25] Citing the impossibility of being able to maintain the confidentiality of its customers' emails should it be served with government orders, Silent Circle permanently erased the encryption keys that allowed access to emails stored or transmitted by its service.[26]"

    "Levison (founder) explained he was under a gag order and that he was legally unable to explain to the public why he ended the service.[21]"

  • Is it safe to delete my Google account?

    Jump

  • It almost impossible to that all the data collected from you (by all the apps you used, no only by Google) will be deleted, mainly because it's already out there being traded by data brokers. That's why I think that deleting your accounts is not the best approach for privacy. I think it's best to keep an old phone with all your accounts and every now and then watch a random video, make a random search, follow a random profile, and so on with all your accounts. Over time your true profile will become obsolete and buried under fake data.

  • "Israeli players accuse Italian national team footballers of ‘teasing’ and insulting them for the whole game"

  • So every citizen of a country whose government commit atrocities it's culprit of that atrocities by default. That's a perfect example on how ideology distorts your clear thinking and leads you to the same indiscriminate violence you are trying to prevent.

  • How am I being tracked by Youtube?

  • The only way to escape from that is using a degoogled phone and non proprietary apps/software.

    Jump

  • The problem is that probably many Israeli players also condemn the genocide of the IDF and the government and also are being insulted. That's the problem with attacking an individual because of their nationality, race, etc Basically you are being prejudiced.

  • Are you using any MCP servers? If so, what?

    Jump

  • I use jan-beta GUI, you can use locally any model that supports tool calling like qwen3-30B or jan-nano. You can download and install MCP servers (from, say, mcp.so) that serve different tools for the model to use, like web search, deep research, web scrapping, download or summarize videos, etc there are hundreds of MCP servers for different use cases.

  • Cmake ignoring option and compiling with just one thread

    Jump

  • Both make and cmake are ignoring the j option and some of the software compiled with them also run in a single thread when they shouldn't, it seems a system problem, could it be an env variable?

  • That's not how physics works. If you are really interested in such issues read a book on foundations of physics or history of physics to see how physicists arrived at the most famous equations (Einstein,Dirac, Schroedinger or Newton), they are basically "bets" guided by physical and mathematical assumptions, but that is far from being "proved" or "derived", there are no rigorous proofs or derivations involved. The uncertainty remains until an experiment or observation confirms it or rejects it. There's no such a thing as "proving" a physical theory, for the simple reason that any physical theory works in a limited regime or range of validity. Newtonian gravitation and General Relativity are both valid and succesfull theories within their range of validity, but they contradict each other mathematically, in one theory gravity is a scalar field and in the other is a tensor field, so you could use the mathematics of one theory to refute the other, so it makes no sense the concept of proving a physical theory mathematically. You only try to axiomize a theory once is well established, but it's irrelevant concerning its validity.

  • You have no idea what you are talking about. You can't prove mathematically Einstein's equations. No fundamental equations in physics were proved mathematically.

  • I am a physicist. String theory already unified QFT and GR and that doesn't mean it's a verified physical theory, you need to validate it through experiment. It's physics 101. Just watch some Sabine H. videos to see how she speaks about string theory being a failure besides being mathematically consistent.

  • Although the theory is promising, the duo point out that they have not yet completed its proof

    Physics is not math, you can't "prove" a physical theory. You make predictions and through experiment or observation Nature has the last word.

  • You know that what you said is pure speculation based on personal experience, random publications, ideology or mainstream and social media, which is the only way you can reach that conclusion, unless you have peer-review publications with the statistics of worldwide usage. If you lived in Africa you would say that Bitcoin is godsend, as you can hear it from many africans
