Seeing as how this is hurting usage to the point that monetization is hurt, maybe they should actually just let the privacy-concious users be...

Couldnt agree more, the 'make technical arguments' nonsense when WEI, and many similar issues, arent problematic for technical reason is ridiculous.

People also dont like to mention that even the current, far from 'green', extraction is because we currently only mine the easiest to access deposits of uranium. There are not many of these and we would shortly need to start acces

"This is the missing piece to speed up development for the exciting Star Trek-like future." Unbelievable misunderstanding of ST to think markets, or 'economic drivers' in their terms, would lead to anything like ST... Th

According to the UN declaration of human rights, Article 13 specifically, which the US signed onto, we actually shouldn't even be able to block people at the border. "Everyone has the right to freedom of movement and residence wit

I hate to say it but yeah, like smartphones are maybe the only thing I feel I've really experienced in my life that made a big impact. And even those came with way more downsides than I would've hoped.

God if this is the future, I dont want it... Despite so much technology we still have so much precarity and poverty with new massive destabilizations happening every day. What a nightmare

I think Uber is a prime example of what to avoid. Sure when it started it seemed nice, it was an affordable, fairly reliable, much more convenient alternative to taxis. Now its expensive, its drivers a new impoverished class while the previ

The problems with LLM are numerous but whats really wild to me is that even as they get better at fairly trivial tasks the advertising gets more and more out of hand. These machine dont think, and they dont understand, but people like the C

Just a shockingly bad idea... Europe has phenomenally dollar potential already, on the ground, and what it couldn't get there it could much more easily compensate for with arrays in countries to it's south. God forbid it might hav
