ajjahs··on The U.S. Is Driving Away Young Scientists
and which metric per capita is this? i could not quickly find any metrics per capita besides this one, where the us does infact not outperform per capita.

ajjahs··on Elon Musk Just Gave Europe a Reason to Replace American Technology
ah yes, the security provided by the US lmao, as in the endless wars that destabalized the middle east completely and cause countless issues for europe since forever, not to mention that as soon as security is actually needed in ukraine the us actually doesnt provide any

and cheap energy from russia ?? lmao

the only true thing in this is the stolen resources from africa

americans live straigth up in some fantasy land while they are quite litteraly the ones that got the free ride on the cost the rest of the world. Pollution, Wars, debt fueld by dollar as reserve currency, stolen labor from aborad (which europe does aswell tbf).. the list is endless

ajjahs··on Apple Security Research Device
what an insane comment.

You can litteraly build and sign GrapeheneOS yourself and you can audit it, if this is your concern. While in the chain of trust there is still Google Root key first, is this far away from "run any software they want on your device at any time, and even remotely brick it"

(and ofc you could also block updates on grapheneOS, which would also prevent this aswell)

And a black box is not something that you dont understand, applying that logic anything becomes a black box.

Also what setup are you using then ?

edit: and i mean i understand the idea of not trusting devices, but this is just a false equivalence. While at the same time, if you dont want to live with technology from like 100 years ago, at some point do you have to trust a black box, if you want to call it that.

ajjahs··on Shutting down our public encrypted DNS
