And enshittify their “basic” models so they can charge premiums to not watermark text.

I agree. Make a pop-up and tell the user Facebook is determined to monetize and track every moment they’re on the site. If they want to continue they’ll get an unfiltered experience and may God have mercy on their souls.

“Bio break guys. Can we just pause the air traffic for 10 mins?”

All I’m hearing is, “You get a data center! You get a data center!”

Grok: I can’t access that article. Which Teen USA contestant did you want me to nudify for you?

Short of a major change in management and fair compensation for artists IDGAF what Spotify does.

And I bet right-wing profiteers pastors would have nothing bad to say about human-machine hybrids that can’t technically be slaves because they don’t have souls.

If any apps, preferably open source, could do a search of services to see if one has “American Beauty” (or whatever) streaming for free AND launches the app directly I’d have no need for my stock launcher.

The power went out in my house for 2 hours the other day. Felt kind of nice.

If I could bet on nobody getting fined or indicted over this… easy money.

Sounds like something a Flock camera could solve… upp, awwwwww. 😭

I can’t boycott any harder you guys. It’s been 10 years since I’ve bought an EA game!

Changing tech is usually a lot harder than adoption. Better methods and protocols will keep emerging to fight new digital threats but with physical threats usually don’t change. Only exception is social engineering (e.g. attacking a locked door by tricking someone into opening it). Even then a physical presence is required and someone can’t enter a locked room from 2000 miles away.

It’s called paying people to watch the systems during off-hours. It’s often way cheaper than setting up firewalls, setting up alerts, maintaining patches, paying a VPN company to manage connections, paying another company to handle authentication, and so on. Security constraints are getting so bad at my office I’m seriously thinking of how we can do more things with pen and paper.

Are they working with any kind of union organizer like Tech Workers Coalition? We could donate to them instead.

My employer does this too. It is a layoff technically but employees are given the opportunity to interview for another position in the company if they want to stay. If it was a “restructuring” the employees would’ve been moved to another department and possibly a new role without their consent.

I’m sure there are right and wrong ways to apply digital learning but I also think adoption has been driven by tech companies and anyone that is starstruck by the “potential” of these devices. I can almost guarantee there were no long-term studies performed prior to sticking all kinds of screens in front of kids faces. Humans have been learning and teaching for millennia using physical mediums. It’s very foolish to think we, as a species, can suddenly shift to a new medium in a single generation with no ill effects.

If it so much as has a button to change text size I know kids would rather mash that button and watch the screen go crazy than to pay attention to the lesson.

Sounds like the best of both worlds.

I just replaced by deadbolt that had home automation capabilities. Couldn’t be more confident in my choice.
