Seriously if you are this concerned about how you are using an LLM then just run one locally. Llama3 is available is a bunch of different sizes for whatever machine you have. Even the small ones are decent.

Is Seedsigner an impelentation of the von Neumann architecture?
From what little I know about this, I guess the answer is 'No', but I would like learn more about why it is not a von Neuman architecture.

I am migrating to #qubes and I want to dump my entire Linux system into a standalone Qube, but so far failed doing this.

I would appreciate some hints about how this could be done.

The idea is to have the old system accessible from withing the new Qubes system, for occasional use when I find the stuff that's undoubtedly still missing in my Qubes setup.

I have managed to install a different OS into a standalone Qube from a .iso file, just to test/troubleshoot, but have not been able to figure out how to turn my old Linux installation into a .iso file.
#dd lets me write some sort of image of the entire old drive (using of=/dev/sdb/nameofoldinstallation.iso) , but it seems that dd maybe only calls it an ISO file. I don't know.

When I try to "Boot qube from CD-ROM" , it results in some error message that it cannot read the .iso file that I made using dd.

Thank you very much! 😁 So...... that 'hashtag-asknostr' just gets added by typing it in the note itself, that makes more sense to me now....I have added it to my home page! One of my pet hates is indeed that I have
to 'un-sort' facebook replies every time I use it for a minute.

I’ve been off Twitter and all social media except for Nostr for a month now, and the results are hard to argue with. I’ve started reading real books again (4 this month) and have noticed both my...

I understand why you don't like Twitter, I have always been allergic to it. Every time I followed a link to a Twitter page and read a few extra replies, I got the emotional equivalent of hives and nausea. Since these links to Twitter post now only expose the single post made by someone, it's much better! But what I don't get, yet, is what Nostr is supposed to be good for. I don't feel like I can search for Nostr content to educate myself, nor can I get my questions exposed to the right persons so they can answer them, nor can I get exposed to questions by others which I might be able to answer. It might just be a matter of time until I find a reason, but so far it often feels like a waste of time to scroll around Nostr, just because I like Freedom Tech.

🚨 Announcing SeedSigner 0.8.0 ! 🚨 Our release notes have gotten so good that one of my release announcement threads doesn't make sense! Just go and check out all of the details for yourself: ...

Thanks for your ongoing work on this! Where is a good place on Nostr (or a good way) to ask questions about how to use the Seedsigner to build multisig solutions?
One thing I want to know is this: Can I make a multisig x out of y wallet, where the majority of the y's can ONLY sign, but they cannot generate the address list? So that they cannot be used to determine the value of the target if they are found by the wrong entity. Or so my ex-lawyer cannot follow all my transactions for all time, etc etc

New enough that I don't think I know for sure, don't know that anyone has tried running it on a Pi 5. We do have a release image for Pi4.
