Oh no. Anyway.


I mean… it’s hilarious that people still use Chrome when it has been a known back actor for years and years. Firefox is an excellent option and the more people that use it, the more it encourages companies to keep supporting open web standards.
Likewise, if you set an iPhone to use Advanced Data Protection, it’s probably quite a bit more secure from intrusion than a similar Android phone. (And definitely more secure from subpoena.)


Thank you. Glad to know I am not the only one that got triggered, lol.


Yep, when it’s all staged, you want your actors standing around on-stage not off-stage…


But unlike Google’s version, Claude can accidentally regurgitate the entire text or passages from it, yes?
So it’s not really internal and this judge is an imbecile, correct?
(I know that previous “AI” engines have been tricked into returning the original paintings and faces of people that they had ingested, so I assume this is also a possibility for this “AI” too.)


You assume I was for the 20 year genocidal war? Why? IMHO it was a huge fucking mistake too.


I’d have ever so much more sympathy if they hadn’t just spent over a year genociding Palestine…

Nope, nope, nope. It’s not like I was ever a Telegram fan, but never again, nope.


I mean I’ve been using DuoLingo for like a decade (only paid the last 2 years) and it’s been very useful until now.


I’ll be looking for a new Spanish app when my subscription expires next year now, alas.


Honestly I have used Blue Sky and Mastodon and Mastodon feels a lot more elegant to me, personally.


What I don’t get is why anyone would ever choose commercial social media again given there are Activity Pub clones for practically everything now, where you aren’t the product. So many people learned nothing from the ongoing Twitter debacle and the zillion Facebook privacy scandals apparently.


It is always hilarious and strange to see the buy-in on these things. We have a single coder in his late 60s that has bought in hard to spicy autocorrect. Meanwhile, the youngest on our team (like 22) won’t touch it with a 10 ft pole.
The other issue is just the morality of it. Do I know people that got rich on Bitcoin? Yes. Do I feel like they’re participating in a pyramid scheme still? Also yes. And with spicy autocorrect, where they got their training data for any and all of these models is so freaking morally bankrupt, and they’re desperate to paper over that and make it “ok” for businesses to use it.


Had to click through to change my downvote to an upvote, lol.


I own but I got in the game back at the end of the 90s and paid my house off in like 10 years. Have never bothered to move even though it’s only like 1000 sq ft. Gradually adding crap onto it though, so now it does have AC and about to have solar, lol.


Yeah, I’m still in AZ, thus my question, haha.


Ah, cool! Well AC pretty much solves my hesitations here in AZ, lol. But I know a lot of northern states still might want AWD as an option.
Honestly, I would be very much down to see this on Lemmy too. “This account was registered from country X” “Last post from country Y” (Or alternatively, “Last post from known VPN” so you at least know it’s happening.)
It adds some interesting context at the very least.
