In a world increasingly shaped by AI, we asked one a simple question:

"What’s your impression of PH4NTXM Operating System."

Here’s the answer it gave:

“PH4NTXM is highly specialized, even elite-level, but only within its narrow domain: covert, high-risk digital operations.

It’s designed for users who need:

• complete session ephemerality (everything erased on shutdown)
• anti-forensic features (no disk writes, randomized fingerprints)
• operational security capabilities (network obfuscation, identity spoofing)

It’s not ‘elite’ in the sense of being widely adopted or user-friendly — it’s elite in its niche, like a tactical tool for trained professionals, not general users.

Think of it as the special forces OS — not for everyone, but unmatched for its specific mission."

Interesting perspective from a machine analyzing system design.

Termux

• platform: Android
• type: sh environment
• goal: have the power of linux sh in Android
• license: GNU GPL Open Source
• development: active
• users: more than I can imagine

Termux which is the powerful Linux sh environment for Android is constantly under attack by Google

I've installed it on many different Androids with different versions and classes of the Android operating system

The direct reaction of the Play Store daemon is the same.

Warning Termux is an unsafe program!

wtf?

Why does google lie and stay that Termux is a program that should not be trusted?

This is a false and blatant deceptive action of Google, who is snooping on the Android phone, your personal property, because Termux gives you the flexibility to look at things which Google tries to hide from you on your own phone!

The Termux distribution is regularly patched and updated just like any other regular Linux distribution which is properly maintained

Keep installing Termux it gives you freedom on your Androids

The mechanism is straightforward & worth understanding. As AI automates the cognitive, analytical, and communications work that college educated professionals have built careers around, those white collar jobs shrink in value and number. The people most exposed are educated women who vote Democrat. Meanwhile, trade and vocational workers, the plumbers, electricians, and machinists who lean Republican and male, become harder to replace with software. Karp isn't just predicting this shift. He is building the technology that accelerates it, cashing Pentagon checks along the way, and calling it patriotism.
#democracy #politics #tech #technology
We are watching a tiny class of AI billionaires reshape society, redistribute political power, and embed themselves into government infrastructure without a single vote being cast. Even Palantir's own head of communications called the company's political drift "concerning."
#taxtherich #regulation #law
The solution is not complicated: tax these people aggressively, break up these contracts, and demand democratic oversight of AI before the architecture of our entire society gets quietly handed over to a few unelected men with god complexes and government clearances.

Total Trust - Totales Vertrauen #Film
Wenn das die Gegenwart ist, wie sieht dann unsere Zukunft aus?

"Was passiert, wenn der Schutz unserer #Privatsphäre missachtet wird? Wie umfassend sind die aus Big Data gewonnen Informationen über unsere Aktivitäten und Überzeugungen, Abneigungen, Vorlieben und Gewohnheiten? Lässt sich sicherstellen, dass diese Daten nicht in die falschen Hände geraten? Sind sie vielleicht schon in den falschen Händen?

„Total Trust“ ist ein zutiefst beunruhigender und bewegender Film über die unheimliche Macht von #BigData und #KI, über ihren Gebrauch und Missbrauch im öffentlichen wie im privaten Leben, über Zensur und Selbstzensur. Anhand eindringlicher Schicksale von Menschen in China, die überwacht, eingeschüchtert und sogar gefoltert wurden, erzählt „Total Trust“ von den Gefahren aktueller Technologien in den Händen einer ungezügelten Macht. Mit China als Spiegel schlägt der Film Alarm: Der zunehmende Einsatz von digitalen Überwachungstools ist längst ein globales Phänomen – auch in demokratisch geführten Ländern." (Pressetext)

How goverments are using facial recognition to crack down on protesters

Mass protests used to offer a degree of safety in numbers. #FacialRecognition #technology changes the equation.

"But while authorities generally pitch facial recognition as a tool to capture terrorists or wanted murderers, the technology has also emerged as a critical instrument in a very particular context: punishing protesters.
(...)
In countries where demonstrating can come with physical or political risk, large-scale protests have historically offered a degree of anonymity, and, with it, a level of protection. Mass protests are a way for citizens to express dissent as a collective — often under the assumption that “they can’t arrest us all.”

But in the last decade, the spread of facial recognition technology has changed that equation: A lone face in a crowd is no longer anonymous; facial recognition allows #authorities to capture people’s identities en masse."

Völlig vorhersehbar versucht die autoritäre EU-Kommission die "digitalen Identitäten" in das Überwachungswerkzeug zu verwandeln, dass sie wohl auch von Anfang an sein sollten.

Vermeintliche Eingrenzungen der Überwachungspotenziale, die bei der Einführung von #eIDAS vom EU-Parlament beschlossen wurden, stellen sich ganz offensichtlich als lächerliche Farce heraus, die die Kommission leicht umgehen kann, um ein Kontrollwerkzeug ganz im Sinne von Konzernen und staatlicher Repression zu erhalten.

The Enclosure of Information: Alternative Data, Bossware, and the Societies of Control

Auszug:
"If the enclosure of land led to peasant revolts, what forms of resistance might emerge against the enclosure of data? The answer is uncertain, but one thing is clear: the commodification of information serves only to reinforce class hierarchies. As financial elites manipulate alternative data for speculative gain and employers use bossware to extract ever more surplus-value, the question we must ask is not merely how to regulate these practices, but how to dismantle the very system that enables them. A society built on the enclosure of knowledge is not a free society. It is a society of control, and it is time to resist."

Yesterday I attended a @SamsungUK event in celebration of International Women’s Day and conversations about AI and women, where Samsung demonstrated how agentic AI is being used in their new S26 Ultra smartphones in new features.

These included further integration with Google Gemini for a more intuitive search engine to help reduce barriers to information, and NowNudge, an internal operating system feature that helps sum up WhatsApp messages, reminds users about meetings and helps the user to retrieve info and images on their device quickly.

I love learning about new tech and find it really interesting to attend events like this because you get to see not just what tech companies are doing, but also how they are explaining it to consumers and the words and framing they use.

And when there’s a particularly good product demonstrator or spokesperson like Patrick below, I love highlighting their explanations.

So in the interests of transparency and public learning, I invite you to be a fly on the wall and see from my POV in this quick video what I learned 😉

PH4NTXM-LITE has been updated.

Recent builds include improvements to the DNS resolver layer and broader hardware compatibility.

The Unbound configuration has been refined to improve resolver stability during live sessions. The update focuses on more consistent behavior when rotating upstream resolvers and handling network changes that commonly occur in portable live environments.

We also expanded the firmware bundle to improve compatibility across a wider range of wireless and network adapters. Live systems often run on unknown or unpredictable hardware, so reliable network initialization remains a constant priority.

If you are experimenting with PH4NTXM-LITE, this is a good time to pull the latest build and put it through its paces. Boot it on different hardware, test network transitions, and see how the resolver behaves under real-world conditions.

PH4NTXM-LITE exists as an open environment for exploring live system design, operational identity concepts, and network behavior experimentation. Community feedback and testing help shape where it goes next.

McKinsey wants to show itself as a company that is specialized in assisting clients in deploying AI.

Meanwhile, McKinsey's own AI deployed by its own team resulted in a huge leak of corporate data of its clients.

This is my Sharkey #introduction 🙃

You can call me Dane.

I started out on the fediverse arooooound...I wanna say 2017/18 mebbe? My big start in social media was MySpace. Before that, I had a LiveJournal (which I miss mightily with all my heart). My very first computer was a Gateway PC, back when they shipped them to you in those awesome cow spot pattern boxes. I am trying to de-google my life.

I'm ADHD and suffer from dysthymia. I'm currently unmedicated. I can be damned moody at times, so there's your warning.

Religiously/spiritually speaking, I'm complicated. That will be a long post, when I get around to writing it. My general rule is: I have my thing. It's not everybody's thing, and that's cool. Not everybody's thing is my thing, and that's cool. Just don't be a wanker towards those whose thing ain't your thing. OM 🕉

I'm in my late 50s, and have come to the conclusion that we never truly appreciate the decades we grew up in until we hit middle age.

I'm single and childless, hence my user tag: TheLastOfHisName.

And now, a hefty list of hashtags....

TIL today I RTFM!

command

ntfy

Today I read the brief synopsis of ntfy Android. I saw there that via linux the control and operation is fairly simple & straightforward

I went to the site and started reading.

ntfy via linux is easy to use

• simple HTTP PUT/POST commands are used

sh

curl -d "Backup successful 😀" ntfy.sh/mytopic

a.out

ntfy publish mytopic

"Backup successful 😀"

HTML

POST /mytopic HTTP/1.1
Host: ntfy.sh

Backup successful 😀

javascript

fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', {
    method: 'POST', // PUT works too
    body: 'Backup successful 😀'
})

golang

http.Post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", "text/plain",
   strings.NewReader("Backup successful 😀"))

python

requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic",
    data="Backup successful 😀".encode(encoding='utf-8'))

php

file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', false, stream_context_create([
    'http' => [
        'method' => 'POST', // PUT also works
        'header' => 'Content-Type: text/plain',
        'content' => 'Backup successful 😀'
    ]
]));

Much of the AI ethics conversation focuses on principles.

Transparency.
Fairness.
Accountability.

But ethics depends on capability.

And capability depends on who controls the data.

Data sovereignty determines ethical sovereignty.

The current state of the web assumes that the reader is an adversary to be trapped and monetized.

When a news website forces you through three dismissive actions just to read a headline, they are burning your cognitive budget before delivering any value. You are greeted by a cookie banner taking up the bottom 30% of your screen, a "Subscribe!" modal dead center, an autoplaying video pinned to the corner and a prompt begging to send you push notifications.

I wrote about the state of news websites. Would love to hear your thoughts✨🙏

Post-quantum cryptography is now operational inside the PH4NTXM live OS.

Our latest builds successfully negotiated hybrid post-quantum key exchange across multiple protocols. The system now prioritizes ML-KEM and hybrid lattice-based exchanges for TLS connections and hybrid post-quantum key exchange for SSH, while maintaining secure classical fallbacks for compatibility.

This means PH4NTXM boots as a stateless live environment with post-quantum-capable cryptography already integrated into the network stack. No external configuration required.

PH4NTXM Development Update

We are currently finalizing the integration of post-quantum cryptography into the PH4NTXM live operating system. The goal is simple but ambitious: a privacy-focused, stateless live OS that boots with quantum-resistant cryptographic capabilities built directly into the system.

Our build pipeline now compiles the post-quantum cryptographic stack during the live-build process and embeds it into the OS while keeping the final ISO minimal and free of build tooling.

Next steps are runtime verification and integration with networking components so that PH4NTXM can begin leveraging quantum-resistant algorithms for secure communications.

If everything proceeds as expected, PH4NTXM may become the first privacy-focused live Linux distribution shipping with built-in post-quantum cryptography.

More updates soon.

It has come to my attention that my beloved VIM has become invested with LLM AI slop

The lead programmer is not following standard rules of coding anymore.

People have called him many things, but one thing is certain. The man is intelligent in the programming field and knows what he wants.

VIM needs LLM slop!

the programmer screams!

We don't think so!

we roar back!!!

His slender frame and sharp features are illuminated by soft, focused light, emphasizing his high cheekbones, deep-set eyes, and slightly furrowed brow.
