Don’t threaten me with a good time!

If anyone ever did this with my likeness after death, even with good intentions, i would haunt the fuck out of them.

marketing hype is pushing anything with AI in the name, but it will all settle out eventually

Agreed. “use it or be left behind” itself sounds like a phrase straight out of a marketing pitch from every single “AI-centric” company that pushes their “revolutionary” product. It’s a phrase that i hear daily from c-suite executives that know very little of what they’re talking about. AI (specifically generative) has its usecases, but it’s nowhere near where the marketing says it is. And when it finally does get there, i think people are going to be surprised when they don’t find themselves in the utopia that they’ve been promised.

If fake experts on the internet get their jobs taken by the ai, it would be tragic indeed.

These two groups are not mutually exclusive

And to what end? Just to have a misinformed populace over literally every subject!

This is a feature; not a bug. We’re entering a new dark age, and generative AI is the tool that will usher it in. The only “problem” generative AI is efficiently solving is a populace with too much access to direct and accurate information. We’re watching as perfectly functional tools and services are being rapidly replaced by a something with inherent issues with reliability, ethics and accountability.

Anyone who opposes mass surveillance should.

I personally use Obsidian, but I know that other have suggested logseq. Might be useful to have in your table. Also, Obsidian does have an Android app.

From the linked article

But VRT NWS said that 153 of the 1,000 recordings it listened to “were conversations that should never have been recorded and during which the command ‘OK Google’ was clearly not given.”

15% of the recordings these reporters listened to were “inadvertant.” I’d say that’s pretty high.

You seem to be operating under the assumption that Trump isn’t an over confident idiot with terrible ideas. Unfortunately for your narrative, he’s straight-up said that he wants to annex these places. So, Trump seriously believes that the USA can colonize Canada.

My vote is:

1. Button layouts that have worked for 20-30 years
2. Heads-up displays for readouts of current values. Mph/kmph is displayed by default and the display temporarily changes when something like volume, heat, radio station, track, etc. is adjusted

Best of both worlds

Ah, missed that

I’m in the same boat, but it is worth mentioning that the screen folds back on itself. It can be used as a tablet and has stylus support.

I’m still trying to wrap my head around fingerprinting, so excuse my ignorance. Doesn’t an installed plugin such as Canvas Blocker make you more uniquely identifiable? My reasoning is that very few people have this plugin relatively speaking.
