Kagi Translate is not revolutionary - it's simply a better translation service.
Try it for yourself, and access 244 languages with zero tracking: translate.kagi.com/
Also: we will be bringing Kagi Translate soon inside Kagi Search as a widget for instant translation inside search results! 🪄
I am originally skeptical of @kagihq ‘s new Translate when I read the changelog since it’s using LLM, but damn I was wrong.
I used a piece of Chinese news to test the translation, and Kagi is the only one that translate 副總統勝選人 to “Vice President-elect”. Google Translate translated it to “Vice President Candidate” (副總統候選人） while DeepL only translate it to Vice President (副總統)
featurewise: interaction controls and sandboxed media preview generation just landed, the main big missing feature at this point is message edits, which is coming in the next release
the main usability downside is that normal clients (enafore, phanpy, etc) all do regular timeline stuff but you still need a separate GTS-specific web UI to do some operations including editing your profile
compatibility is top-notch; haven't run into an issue yet

Dazu wird es einen Beitrag zu Hubzilla von @pepecyb geben.

Lang lebe Fediverse! 
Danke für den App Tipp.

The problem is that I don't want to submit every single part of my life to AI engines for analysis. Maybe it's on-device, cloud, whatever it is, if it has more sensitive data like a timeline of all sites I visited, no thanks. Some other things, like Meta glasses, I'm OK with pictures used for AI training if it means we get more representation for the way those with disabilities use that device, because I know I won't be using for sensitive data like credit card numbers, just stuff I see in public, labels I read, ETC.
In the end, this AI will be (already is) the excuse companies use to feed data from your most sensitive parts of your life into their models too, unless you yourself take control and understand the implications of the data they're asking you to feed their AI.

This article discusses how to protect privacy, amidst concerns of increased government surveillance.
The article is aimed at Asylum seekers & immigrants to the US, but it's solid advice for anyone, really.
Recommendations include using encrypted messaging apps like Signal, Apple iMessage, and WhatsApp, and setting messages to disappear.
It also recommends minimizing data sharing and deleting data when possible, particularly from Google.

I've also had issues with this site today.
In Welsh myths, pigs originally came from the Otherworld, a gift from the fairy king Arawn. The Welsh point to all the many different kinds of marvelous food one can turn pigs into (bacon, sausages, pork chops, etc.) as proof that pigs are magical creatures.

That being said, I do still use OneDrive but I also regularly back up files to two external drives which are not synchronized with a cloud service. That way, if I unintentionally delete something that I later decide is important to me, I still have it available on my external backups. As long as users understand this, services like OneDrive are fine to use and are extremely convenient.
Thanks for such an excellent podcast and for everything that you and Kim do for the community.
Be like coffee - hot and invigorating, but leaving some with headaches and others exhausted and asking for more.
Sometimes, when I try to sign into PayPal using Brave, I get an HCaptcha challenge with no audio challenge. It's very tricky getting those "accessibility cookies" to play nicely with Brave and it's a step I shouldn't need to go through, anyway. What usually happens is that I give up and my second authentication attempt, for whatever reason, results in bypassing HCaptcha. Blindness organizations like the NFB or @ACBNational need to engage in advocacy with HCaptcha with the goal of getting them to be more inclusive and less discriminatory. If that fails, there needs to be a law suit filed against them.
