A drop in a bucket compared to what already exists via algorithms and the media at large.

The latest Samsung updates (and Pixel too I imagine?) baked it into the OS and made it difficult/impossible to disable. It’s probably that. I also agree, aside from that I haven’t seen anything about Gemini at all, I think their market

But if it’s production code then surely you are scrutinising it heavily. That’s hardly “vibe coding” it’s just using a LLM to aid development.

I refuse to believe “__vibe__ coding” (I hate that word) is even a thing outside of startups and hobbyists. It just seems like a cute phrase coined by Karpathy now solely exists to create articles for clicks.

It’s crap in comparison. It’s not flexible at all. It’s still SEPA even though it’s “instant” and not all banks support it yet (although they are supposed to).

It’s just bizarre since they seemed to be the only ones designing their hardware for AI, which was a huge part of their Apple Silicone marketing.

Last week Trump targeted Pix and Brazil for discriminating against Mastercard and Visa[0]. Also last week there was the Steam debacle involving the same two companies which brought attention to the power that this duopoly holds all across t

Open YouTube on an incognito tab and watch the Shorts. You’ll be in for a laugh if you think Netflix is bad.

Is this those ethics and safety they were talking about?

iPhones autocorrect this all the time for me. I Just tried typing the title there and it autocorrected it as “it’s” too.

So what? They’re right. Japanese are a million times more civilized than us foreigners/tourists. They also have a vastly different culture with many possible faux-pas that one can make, which all tourists inevitably make, which they ha

I felt awful about being in Kyoto last year. Had I known how bad it was for the locals I would never have went. I can’t imagine how frustrated and angry if my home town was the same. The infrastructure can’t support the number of tourists u

It was probably K2/Spice. The same thing happened to me as well as a panic attack and borderline disassociation. I never touched weed, real or otherwise after that.

Ads shape opinions. Why do political parties spend so much on them? Carefully curated ads can control you on subtle levels. Read the Propaganda book that another reply cited and also read Elul’s. Also read the works or experiments by B.F Sk

YouTube without an adblocker is borderline unusable. I would have no problem paying for premium if they didn’t also steal your data. They can’t have both, not from me anyway.

I’m pretty sure Samsung did the same with their S series phones a few years back. Nobody seemed to mind.

All of this can be done with a simple script for Tamper/Grease/Violentmonkey if you don’t want to install an extension or are concerned about it not being supported in Manifest V3

Just write a simple user script with Tamper/Greasemonkey. You can even paste it into ChatGPT and it will give you one.

They don’t care. Every single one of them toe the party line. There was the Pirate Party, but not anymore.

First FreeNow and now Deliveroo. So much for European independence from US companies. It’s a wonder why these sales were approved in this climate.

by Argonaut998 1y ago
This matches up with my exact thoughts too. My old phone was an Android, and it was quite old in that the manufacturer hadn't updated it in a while. There were times when speaking about something would give me ads relating to it on Goo

Agree completely. I was referring more about entry to the US in the first place. I suppose the current admin doesn’t believe the first amendment applies to non-citizens. I think I saw that judges are trying to block it. Do they have a point

by Argonaut998 2y ago
Well it depends on what you are referring to. If it’s people not being allowed into the US for various reasons I don’t think that has anything to do with the constitution. But yeah obviously these people being rounded up and being sent to E

I have to wait 3 weeks for a doctor appointment in my utopian European nation. I also have to pay for it since I earn too much money after being taxed >40% on my slightly-over-us-median income. Thankfully I’m not in need of dental surge

I’m trying to move there. And that is a hyperbole. It’s a tiny amount of cases being reported by the media as being de facto what’s happening. It’s the same with all of the so-called travel warnings issued by some Western countries. The “wa

Even accepting that as true (it’s not — it’s the cost of having soft-power in Europe.) it means that no European, and probably Turkish, Korean, Japanese and Canadian cash will be flowing to the USA defence industry.

It’s par for the course for this union. It’s just comical given the very recent political events.

I switched to an iPhone for the first time in 2022 with the 14 Pro. I got it on the release day and immediately there was a glaring visual bug when running a timer on their “Dynamic Island” (a huge flop). Ever since then I’ve encountered so
