It would be logical to work less and get our own community. A lot of people work hard all their lives and die soon after retirement. That’s not logical.

We had the same propaganda with books, radio, and TV. Should we ban those things too?

I remember that, it was all the stolen code https://github.com/aenu1/aps3e/issues/1

It’s a lot of problems that I would never solve on my own, and both politicians and citizens don’t want to change: social media and AI are destroying humans, shitty parents dont want to take care of their kids, and climate change is destroying the world. It’s inevitable but the smartphone that I use is not responsible.

Smartphones are fine, it’s just a small computer that can make calls and is connected to the internet. You’re using it wrong.

If people can’t control themselves or their kids, it’s not my problem.

I remember when the Nexus was the open reference device that you could play with. The Pixel is now as closed as an iPhone. Thanks Google!

Access Denied

Nice article bro. Without reading it, I still know it’s a stupid idea.

Oh I understand. I guess bots but its pretty limited by the lack of karma. It could destroy accounts on reddit but not here.

I could downvote because we’ve seen this a lot: underpowered phone that does nothing and costs as much as my Pixel that does everything. Its not technically a scam, but it feels like those magical paper notebooks that supposedly boost your productivity for some reason.

I read the article: $500 and the same battery as my phone. Definitely a scam. I would get one at $100 though.

Or moderators. Why would they need those people when the AI can fix everything for free and even improve articles?

It’s automated and exponentially worse. It’s not the same thing.

destroy open source projects

I do believe that too. The AIs are stealing all the code and remove the licenses, and the OSI recently classified “binary blobs” as open-source. LLM companies need fresh content and will try anything to steal that.

GrapheneOS has reproducible builds.

Microsoft is not even close to a walled garden

Were you in a coma for the past 40 years?

IIRC the Microsoft TOTP has an (obviously) incompatible format that you can’t store in Bitwarden.

Bitwarden being the only acceptable application for me, I would ask for a work phone if I had to use the Microsoft thing.

I have a Google account at work with the domain name of the company. The AI is annoying and I wished they used something else.

For me it was: Gmail to Tuta, Drive to Filen.io (some cheap German guys). But Sheets would be the most difficult. Maybe Zoho or Infomaniak? Infomaniak has the complete package IIRC.

It depends which local branch. CA and the Caisse d’Epargne lied to me about it. BoursoBank is good though.

What do people even do in there ?

In France some banks illegally force users to use the banking application to approve online transactions as a security feature.

They could implement OTP as an alternative but they don’t because they are lazy.
