What choice? There is no real choice when a democracy is based on money - campaign funding, "donations", lobbying, etc.

If AI becomes good at doing that and fixing bugs, then sure. But there is no evidence pointing towards that as of now. Mostly only slop.

It's all so tiring isn't it? It's become a meme, but everyday more and more, I yearn for living in the middle of nowhere, unplugged, with just my friends and family around. Very unrealistic, but still.

They intend to normalize requiring ID to use certain websites. How fast will we go from "it's fine as long as they do zero knowledge verification" to most websites on the internet requiring some government ID proof?

If the code is indeed not AI generated, then that's great. But the AI generated readme is not doing the reputation of the project any favors. Also, as others have mentioned, I would definitely want to see a screenshot of a tool like th

Governments just want to normalize ID verification for using online platforms. Children's safety is always the go-to cry for assimilating more power.

LLMs writing code, and then LLMs reviewing the code. And when customers run into a problem with the buggy slop you just churned out, they can talk to a LLM chat bot. Isn't it just swell?

My point still stands. How many non tech people do you know that will switch to a Librem Phone? Or know it even exists? Or will muck around with Waydroid? And eventually we might not even have a choice to switch banks.
