No no, I disagree I think that shoving AI into all these apps is a solid plan on their behalf. People are going to stop recall and shut it off. So instead they put AI components into every app, It now has the right to overview everything you’re doing and every app collects data on you sending it home to update their personalized models for you so they can better sell you products.

Microsoft Teams: Awww, come on, you just motioned all of me.

“wife”s nudes on state sponsored news?

I doubt he cares about that at all… kinda shocked he doesn’t just come out and say yeah, that’s what I’m fucking.

Then again, that was just their warning shot that they’re serious. If they have something more substantial…

There are photos of him hanging with Epstein.

Ghislaine Maxwell said in court that he frequented Epstein’s Manhattan mansion, where she would introduce him to her friends and acquaintances.

If there was anything to that, and the KGB had some media to support that fact. Certainly, some decent part of his base is unshakable, but not the whole base. It would have to be some pretty gross crap, but I don’t think it’s anywhere near impossible.

So the story goes, they have blackmail against him. Then he made some comments that he might not pay up after getting in. When they released blackmail, it was in order to make sure he pays, not to just call retribution. They have more, he’s their sock puppet.

Elon Mush: too rich to care.

ok ok, Mostly too rich to care, he’s pretty thin skinned.

Seriously though, when he was forced to complete the purchase of twitter, I thought he was just an idiot who couldn’t run a company. Over the years, I’ve come to believe that he’s an idiot who doesn’t care about anything but staying rich and none of the really stupid stuff he’s doing pushes the needle.

He’s still an idiot, but if it doesn’t break him, he just wants the attention and more opportunities to make more money.

It’ll run on 3rg gen if you patch out the install limiter, who knows how long they’ll let that work.

It’s not my main but I do have edge installed on Linux. I keep it around That’s both a vanilla Chrome install and the GPT-4 interface.

I keep most of my AI local but once in a while I need something that’s outside of the llama realm

They’re better at smelling cancer than humans.

I’m not sure we can definitively say they hallucinate less.

Hmm, I swapped FB with Lemmy for my quick dial when the elections heated up, guess I’ll just leave it that way.

Don’t weld me to the wall mommy!!!

Some people want convenience of accessing the data between devices.

It’s okay to store stuff in the cloud just make it’s encrypted deeply and thoroughly and that the user is the only person with the key.

There’s absolutely no reason for them to have access to this data.

How often do you want to see these? Everyday? Once a week? Let me know!

These are fantastic, even if they’re not hard, too hard, doesn’t matter. Every day is fabulous, 4 times a week, whatevs, show us what you got!

Well, the idea would be for one of them to get a business class connection, then they all split the price.

People have done this. That was a story I read maybe 6 months ago about a guy that couldn’t get FiOS at his location. They kept jerking him around on getting the business class connection then the fiber contractors kept drinking around it’s kind of hard to pull this off in a way where the companies don’t jack you around.

yes indeed, was preparing to write something more complicated, then decided to use a less than and didn’t pay any attention that I needed to change the number :)

Oh, let there be no mistake, Trump doesn’t give a damn about manufacturing inside our borders. Trump wants to do what the companies pay him to do. It’ll be the US corporations that have to allow the invasion of Taiwan, I suspect that he’ll have a vested interest in keeping Taiwan around.

Dunno, I’d say they’re working pretty hard on this already:

Windows 10 is about to expire

Windows 11 has extra ads and telemetry.

Windows 11 has invasive AI recall

Windows 11 won’t run on hardware < 8th* gen Intel or without TPM chips

All the new apps are getting AI components that can snitch on what you’re doing. You can’t even post something into notepad without it being aware of what’s in your content and calling home.

edit per: @goodtoknow@lemmy.ca

It won’t trigger or accept my Bitwarden passkeys, and on google, if I do the use other device, it pops on my phone for bio auth, but the browser just never accepts the credentials.

I’d try it if I were you, I do a lot of strange things. just check to make sure they work for you first.

Long live the Duck

or SearX, which by proxy uses the duck and whoever else :P
