I don’t want to be a party pooper but I can’t help feeling that buying Google’s hardware to avoid Google’s software might not pan out in the long run.

The sad part is that LineageOS, GrapheneOS and basically all Android alternative OS are built on top of the AOSP, which Google controls, and they’re staling updates to twice a year. These stalled updates may include critical security patches or device compatibility support.

Furthermore many android devices prevent users from entering a boot state which lets the owner install the OS of their choice, making everything more complicated.

If you’re up for some reading be sure to check out the Breaking Free report. Hands down the most thorough, easy to read document about the issue imho.

Oh look, a tech bro pivoting from crypto to genAI. He’s shifting grift a little late but whatever.

I totally get and share your distrust of corporations. I just want to share two points.

Please don’t lose sight that Kaeden Rowland is an actual person, not an ad.

Regarding her gender identity, she has told CNN: “I’m just a trans girl getting her ups […] at a really hard time for trans people to get their ups.”

I’m also wondering how you’re associating USA TikTok’s transfer with Staples Baddie’s success. This isn’t a company nor a creator who particularly aligns with the regime’s propaganda.

Bro you’re on Beehaw here. So please be nice. Objectively pointing out what’s wrong with their comment is good. Simply not engaging is alright too.

Shaming the victim is never the answer.

I’d bet a loony it’s part of a larger attempt at provoking some kind of agressive response from the population so he can justify with his base to crank up the authoritarianism.

I agree with you that this article was deliberately framed to cast AI in a bad light as it is in line with their audience’s general sentiment. What I’m pointing out is that this target audience of AI haters is actually the whole gaming community. Which is massive. Which entails a massive amount of folks don’t like AI one bit. You see where I’m get at?

I don’t think PCGamer titled their headline with the objective of getting upvotes on Lemmy.

This is a spiritual take that has its roots in ancient Greek philosophy. Some centuries before Christ the Stoics had planted a seed for equality: they proposed that all humans possessed a divine spark which linked us together to a greater universal whole. This commends respect and dignity for all without exception, individually and collectively.

The Christians adopted this as one of their founding principles as well. A couple of millennium later we can all see how this piece of wisdom still needs tending. Leo’s really going for the basics of his doctrine here to question generative AI.

I’d go as far as saying that his argument is rooted in an idea that transcends religions and is a critical lesson for our species as a whole, one we have yet to truly fulfill.

“OpenAI will try to guess”, as it always does.

Time magazine going hard making clear on which side of the class war they stand.

Don’t listen to anyone trying to shame you into agreeing with their view about something so profound. You are entitled to your own philosophy on the matter.

And they’ll get AIs to scrape that shit too. And train on it so they can spew higher order nonsense. And so on.

I love these grotesque historical events. The Cadaver Synod is pretty good too: pope hates predecessor so much he has him exhumed, trials the corpse and declares him retroactively not pope. Great Halloween fun!

Wait 'til you see it working.

You’re not dumb and we don’t have a flawless experience… but me and my son aren’t nearly having as much trouble as you. Maybe you’re unlucky with hardware support. For some it does “pretty much” works. I’m genuinely glad you’re sticking to it some more and I hope you continue learning and that your experience gets smoother.

It clawed too 💅
