Privacy@lemmy.ml•Zerion: a privacy-focused messaging app based on Briar's protocol
15·11 days agoThis looks like a really cool project with a lot of well selected components for good security/privacy, but it also appears to be significantly vibe-coded as there are only 2 contributors and one is Claude. I’d really appreciate some sort of validation audit from a trusted 3rd party before using it seriously.
Hopefully it can collaborate with existing privacy focused orgs as this could be very useful for journalists and other folks needing robust communications and secure vaults for sensitive data.

Not able to successfully post an image so far, maybe something broke with iterations going on. They never show a thumbnail after upload and disappear from the post.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Working on my politics-free lemmy experience, what words should I add next?
11·1 month agoSemiotics is the study of signs. It is an interdisciplinary field that examines what signs are, how they form sign systems, and how individuals use them to communicate meaning. Its main branches are syntactics, which addresses formal relations between signs; semantics, which addresses the relation between signs and their meanings; and pragmatics, which addresses the relation between signs and their users.
I wonder if memes are collections of signs with meanings in relation to each other and their users. I’m sure that’s NOT the case tho.

The cat is CIA, DEA, DHS, CPB and US military personnel. They operate the most successful drug smuggling and distribution networks. This is why they oppose any legal change on prohibition.

If anyone still thinks the “opposition” is not entirely subservient to western interests at this point, they will never learn otherwise.
His favorite game to play outside was cowboys and Indians. Tales of the American West were very popular among boys in Austria and Germany. Books by James Fenimore Cooper and especially German writer Karl May were eagerly read and re-enacted. May, who had never been to the American West, invented a hero named Old Shatterhand, a white man who always won his battles with Native Americans, defeating his enemies through sheer will power and bravery. Young Hitler read and reread every one of May’s books about Old Shatterhand, totaling more than 70 novels. He continued to read them even as Führer. During the German attack on the Soviet Union he sometimes referred to the Russians as Redskins and ordered his officers to carry May’s books about fighting.


Still better than capitalism according to them though.
And I’m sure the polling methodology by the Institute for the Investigation of Communist Crimes and the Memory of the Romanian Exile was completely nonbiased, and respondents still view it more positively.
So what was grandma doing in the 1940s?
