That’s not what they’re using. Apps that sell location data is the source.
Oh, and I have a removable battery for avoiding triangulation if need be.


Laughs in root level location spoofing module


Likely not. This is a spectacularly dumb move, the product isn’t that good and Samsung / SK Hynix are high if they think they they’ll get paid if the market so much as sneezes and things go sideways


Fair enough, that’s true. I guess my gripe is with the narrow use case and the debugging and/or prompt/context tuning to get what you want. I still feel that if you don’t get what you want on the first try, it’s faster to write it yourself than spending time “debugging” the input and maybe get a 60% chance on correct output, which in most cases, still needs debugging. And god forbid, a framework is rewritten.
I just wished it was a bit better before we hit the plateau of diminishing returns.


TBH, it’s not really that great at that. Is average at best and grossly misleading and flat out wrong at worst. It may bring slight speedups for average development on boring legacy enterprise code, but anything really novel and interesting? Detrimental.


safer than ever 👍📘.
Not great, not terrible.


Yes, Christian monks in europe are a thing and often they specialize in productive activities such as gardening, beekeeping and prominently, beer-brewing



The implication here is, if they implement this, is that they volunteer to assume liability, should e.g., your bank account be drained despite undergoing their forced strict lockdown on paid and owned devices.
Fat chance, because laws are meaningless to crime syndicates


It would seem like that when reading news, but it’s really not that bad. Enshittification is an issue though, but mostly being driven by the us oligarchs worldwide. A lot of the outrage/opinion manufacturing “media-news” never becomes reality on the ground.
The issue with nonsensical invasive surveillance tech is, logic and facts usually and eventually prevail, for instance backdooring systems for one group is backdooring for everyone, it just puts a huge target on your system and is ultimately ineffectual in its purpose, because the people of interest will adapt almost instantly (see examples “war on drugs”, “ending piracy”). In the end it is a losing battle, akin to trying to legislate wind to blow only in one direction.



Yeah. Nah. Not the bitchboy.


Qubes OS ?


Alrighty then, every MB of EU-user-generated data transferred to servers of US digital services now incurs a fee of 0.1€.
If you don’t pay, or during ongoing proceedings, the packets are not forwarded to the IP range of that service.
I bet that would resolve all problems very quickly.


Well, it’s a bit better than that, simply because you can train AI with solar power. Probably nobody does that currently, as it’s easier, faster-to-market and probably (for whatever corrupt reason) cheaper for business to let it run on burning fossils/nuclear. Currently there’s an insane amount of waste, often 1000s of models are trained and only the best performing one is deployed - and then it’s just a fancy autocomplete. The better use is for prediction of material failure, new medicine and protein folding, generally improved processes.
With asbestos you get some convenience, but it’ll be for eternity a pain to find a waste management facility that will accept it.


The spice must flow


So… then host your own instance and set up your own rules and mod /de-federate how you see fit?
It’s an offer you don’t have to take as-is, and this shows it’s the exact opposite of a failure: you can be the change you demand from others.


Yeah, but the astroturfing botfarms are only activated to foment “oohh aahh yeah gotta be responsible with our children’s debt” opinions when it’s the other way around. And of course all big “news” entertainment papers and shows are in on it because of access and money. I mean, they’re all doing what they’re paid for and the general public can’t be arsed to be smart about it, call bullshit and cut off the value extraction because of perceived inconveniences (data harvesting = ability to manipulate/steer public opinion = value to sell to those seeking power & control). the populace is the commodity being sold here.
We are all cooked


Make political advertisement / political messaging illegal on entertainment platforms. There’s precedent for highly regulated TV advertisements, why is there such a broad exception for unregulated manipulative online advertising? Why is cigarette, religious, drug advertising forbidden but political lies and agendas allowed, endorsed even? Fines need to be 50% of monthly worldwide profit and increase by 5% for each month of noncompliance.
This simple legislation would instantly solve a lot of current issues with what’s wrong and protect free, democratic nations.
