Because coreboot is the only way for us to be in full control of the hardware. Any other way there is microcode which is closed source and we have no idea what it is doing. It has full control to everything.

What do you plan to do on that graphics card? Is that 20GB VRAM? That sounds nice, but not being a NVIDIA it lacks at least the CUDA cores which are necessary for many AI use cases which I have.

So how would you make a homage at an old jobs by bringing it into the now times without copying the joke and replacing parts of it?

Munich did it before and then they crawled back to Bill Gates and begged to take them back: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiMux

I’m hosting my own server and my own bridges. Some of the bridges are rock solid and I never need to do anything other than keeping them updated like the discord, the signal, the Telegram and Slack ones.

Others I installed but they are breaking now and then and I have to fiddle with them like FB messanger, WhatsApp.

The third category is the ones that theoretically should work but I can’t get them to work like WeChat or Kakao Chat, because they are in a bad shape, outdated or like in WeChats case my account is flagged to not be able to do that for some reason.

And then there are the chats which have no way to be integrated like Instagram I think.

From what I understand beeper is just a matrix server with all those bridges installed and they configure update and run them making shire that everything works. And to be honest, that is a lot of work and it’s a good value proposition.

But yes you’re right they need to decrypt your chats on their server so that the bridge can deliver the messages. Actually I made a video explaining it a while ago about Element One which is doing it in the same way: https://tube.jeena.net/w/rYhp4ZT5Ykw1aBGqMr62KG

Keep it just in your head until Elon Musk forces Neural link on everyone, then you’re fucked.

Yeah, no migration available, which is a potty but that would be quite difficult to do it right.

I’m doing it and I like it. But I switched to PieFed which is easier to maintain.
