Interesting. Do you remember when people posted some no consent message in their social media posts like on Facebook or even now on Lemmy? Those messages did nothing. But now you just need to add one of the names from this list to your post and it will actually work? Quite fascinating.

I can already hear “The mainstream media is playing tricks on us to keep us from enjoying ourselves by [insert any dumb shit like rolling coal or something]“

Not sure how resource allocation works and how quickly you could be sent back to earth but someone may have to be sacrificed.
I’ve been waiting for them to update the hardware of the Omni’s but they are taking their sweet time.
As it stands I won’t buy a router for that price that is like 5 or 6 years old (or even older?)

SMS is a dead technology as it should be. It’s not private or secure in any way and the apps you listed probably just don’t give a fuck about implementing it in a way that is.
If Signal had just 1 person working on keeping it alive it would still be money that could be spent elsewhere. Like the username feature I had been patiently waiting for, which was delivered recently and is a great addition.
Next up please make a Steam Box. I just want a PS5/XSX equivalent with SteamOS.
And because I know people will say build a PC: No, I want a pre build smallish box with kinda certified hardware so I don’t have to worry about compatibility, cooling, drivers and all that stuff.
Since everything seems to be going downhill right now, how would I harness that power? You telling me the crystal peddling influencers were right all along? 🤣
That’s one product, does that really justify OPs remark “After years of pushing their proprietary and closed solutions”?
Who are you quoting? And which proton solutions aren’t open source?
I’m saying not making each other miserable should be the norm. Being courteous and decent to each other should be the norm. Which includes greeting each other. No need to go overboard with donuts and the killing kind of kindness.
You’re saying things that don’t match up with what I wrote. Not sure why that is.
Pretty sure an LLM is much more helpful in teaching than this useless comment.
I don’t know about bringing donuts or the other reply about killing them with kindness. Both would be too much for someone like me.
Like, am I obligated to bring donuts now? Are we now caught up in a perpetual donut bringing cycle until it becomes the new normal and there’s donuts all the time?
And killing them with kindness is just overdoing it. I’d not feel comfortable.
Can we not just be courteous and decent to each other at this place of -work-? Don’t get me wrong. If you’re having a great day, tell me about it and share the joy. If you’re having a shitty day, I’ll be there to listen. But on the regular, let’s just not make each other miserable.
That is a collection of pieces of media though, op asked about a single piece.
It’s a scenario that Neal Stephenson covers in his book “Fall; or, Dodge in Hell”. Interesting read, although it’s one of my least favorite books of him and I liked the first book in the “Dodge” series a lot better.
Even if you don’t mind your phone number getting leaked because it’s already out there I would recommend to switch away from a closed source software that requires your phone number for no good reason. Even if it’s just to send a signal that this is not ok.
I wonder what the power consumption of getting to the information in the summary is as a whole when using a regular search, clicking on multiple links, finding the right information and extracting the relevant parts. Including the expenditures of energy by the human performing the task and everything that surrounds the activity.
There are real concerns surrounding AI, I wonder if this is truly one of them or if it’s just poorly researched ragebait.
I wouldn’t mind them if they didn’t carry/transmit those awful diseases.
