FireWall?

Setup x2 rules for each .exe,
one to block inbound connections,
and another to block outbound connections.

Correct, ChatGPT is proprietary spyware.

If the interface would support self hosted (local/offline) LLMs, then I'm sure people would be much more interested.

Citra, internal resolution x9,
and you've got yourself an early access to this :)

No need to pay Nintendont, the law-suit company that makes games on the side, again for a game you already bought in the past.

Well I'm not against No-Log VPNs,
I use them on the daily myself.

However using a VPN of a spy-ware company kinda defeats the purpose.

Check which devices are supported under the LineageOS(forMicroG) device lists:

If it's under there,
then LineageOS(forMicroG) will be supported officially.

Magisk (root) should work on any of these devices:

Additionally, I like to use the compare functionality of GSMArena to compare device hardware specs (battery, camera, nfc, etc):

Curious if they will manage to create a game more fun/refreshing than Palworld.

Legends Arceus definitely was the most fun/refreshing Pokemon game in years though, and they're taking their time with the release by waiting till 2025, so my hopes are up.

Glad to see Mega's bringing a return,
instead of whipping up some new Gigantamax/Terastal bs..
hope they will expand upon the amount of Mega's!

SearXNG

To prevent getting rate-limited I use it through SearXNG instance randomizers:

These enhance the privacy even further.

DDG is not recommended anymore.

Hurt the spy-ware giant,
by using Invidious.

Free leeches their bandwidth,
without the spy-ware and ads!

Still up for better alternatives.
But for now I've been using TheMovieDb.

https://themoviedb.org/movie

Then use the Filters section:

  • Select Genres you want to watch
  • Set User Score between 7 - 10
  • Set Minimum User Votes to 50
  • Alter the Filters more if you desire
  • Click Search

For power users, I recommend to use a plugin like NoScript though, to block Google/CookieLaw's hidden JS spyware on the site (they're on 2/3th of the web tho).

https://noscript.net

Beware, NoScript will break some sites,
and will require you to manually enable/whitelist JS (JavaScript) sources for sites + CDNs to fix this again.

Google software = Spyware with some features on top.

I hate any form of spyware.
I hate how they pampered it with a euphemism and called spy-ware "telemetry".
I hate how sheeple are sticking their head in the sand regarding the spy-ware a.k.a. "telemetry".
I hate how we still don't have enough laws protecting our digital privacy.
I hate how the world appears to be turning into a massive surveillance state...

Please come up for your rights for privacy,
by saying no to spy-ware.
