for decades now
You should drop that S. The company has only existed for a little over 2 decades and Android hasn’t been around for much more than 1. Yes they’ve become an evil fucking corporation but let’s not exaggerate for how long.
I mean, you can set DND to be on at certain times so that, short of an emergency that is sent tagged as such, you won’t get notifications during certain hours of the day or night. Y’all don’t need to get all bohemian self righteous with the whole “I’ve disconnected from the world through my phone and have never looked back”. Seriously, get over yourself. We all have our crosses to bare and DND is a great feature for some “leave me alone” time but there’s no need to become a virtual hermit in order to have some peace and quiet.
It’s a good way to be pedantic on social media.
Well, now I have something fun to do over the weekend.
Yeah seriously just look at Sam Bankman-Fried and that Theranos dipshit. Both bullshitted their way into millions. Only difference is that Altman and Musk’s bubbles haven’t popped yet.
Can someone explain to me like I’m a Windows user why Arch is so great? You know, over something like Ubuntu.
Halt excess spending. Don’t spend a single dime more than necessary to survive. You are gonna need every penny in your bank account if you hope to make it the next 2 years.
Oh, and don’t count on democratic politicians to do anything about anything. They fear progressives more than a fascist Trump regime because they are all in the pockets of those tech billionaires.
If you’re a person with brown skin, I hope and pray for you and am donating what little I can to organizations who are trying to protect immigrants and non-whites.
iOS or maybe Android is their PC, all through apps and feeds.
So they’re already using BSD and Linux.
Obvious to whom exactly?
That’s why I avoid them like the plague. I’ve even changed almost every platform I’m using to get away from the AI-pocalypse.
Problem is you can’t shut down your account with the government because that’s your everything. That’s your identity, that’s your retirement, that’s your unemployment. And he’s been given carte blanche to fuck with it in any way he feels like by the giant orange douchebag who thinks Elmo’s a fucking genius. And the Republican Congress is either unwilling or too scared shitless of his billion$ to get in his way.
The more this dipshit talks about programming the more I’m convinced that he’s got absolutely no clue how any of it works. Like, he’s famous for creating PayPal, I’m really wondering if he paid someone to code that shit and just took credit (and all the money from its sale).
It’s no longer available on FDroid for some reason.
the cars are fucking solid.
Try driving through a car wash without activating “car wash mode”. 😂
It’s actually part of the Sirius XM package. So I think that all you have to do is not bother with Sirius XM.
A more useful thing would be to do as much damage to Twitter as possible. In fact, why they haven’t attacked Twitter while Musk has been disarming all of its safety protocols is fucking beyond me.
when the data used to train the AI is copyrighted, how do you make it open source? it’s a valid question.
It is actually possible to reveal the source of training data without showing the data itself. But I think this is a bit deeper since I’ll bet all of my teeth that the training data they’ve used is literally the 20 years of Facebook interactions and entries that they have just chilling on their servers. Literally 3+ billion people’s lives are the training data.
Yeah all that bluster in Congress about TikTok collecting people’s data and yet not one single privacy bill materialized anywhere. Not even from Democrats. It’s almost like the privacy concerns were not even real.
I’ll also reiterate that they flat out will not even use a TV sometimes because they’re defeated by the smart TV features that prevent them from getting over to their Comcast box.
Yes I did read your comment and here you just proved my point. And my solution was not for old people. Point I was making in my comment was that old people are already lost cause. They don’t understand technology and therefore will not benefit from it. So yeah they get suckered into buying these TVs and then they never use them properly or they get somebody younger to set them up so that they can use either Netflix or Disney+ since those are the only things they know of to watch whatever programs they can pull up or they pay someone to get a cable box plugged in and surf like they did in the '80s, '90s, and early 2000s.
My “fix” is for younger people, twenties to '50s, who don’t want to deal with the ad-pocalypse. I have been able to set it up multiple times with various sized computers right down to a Raspberry Pi. And yeah, of some ain’t tech savvy enough to plug a computer into an HDMI port and use it to watch stuff on their TV, I have no sympathies. We live in a digital age and if you’re younger than '50 years old and can’t work a computer, you’re dead out of luck when it comes to digital entertainment and you might as well get used to having ads shoved in your face the rest of your life.
You’re mad cause they started putting ads into your search results? Like that was always going to happen. Having ads doesn’t make them evil. The shit they’re doing right now, and have been doing for the last half a dozen years or so, that makes them evil.
