I wonder if we'll start to see more things where AI is banned in the same way that steroids are banned in sport. Where and how the line would be drawn and you'd enforce it would be interesting discussions though.

Fully aware AWS and amazon are different, but my point still stands IMO. Not sure why some people have so much trust in massive corporations who utlimately are all about making money for shareholders. For some people it's like supporti

A better than google has existed for a while now. A new generation of web tools is what we've been asking for.

Recently wanted to know what day a particular date was, so on Samsung, I opened the first calendar app I could find. On opening it asked for location, I denied its request and the application shut down. WTF. I understand why a calendar migh

Depending on your POV, is it sad that societies and cultures are becoming more homogeneous? Isn't there less diversity as time goes by in the modern world. The speed of development is good but is it at a cost to diversity?

I know half a dozen family members and I can do rudimentary stuff. Maybe you mean people who do or used to do it professionally?

What a great result for and use of the world resources. We do need to rethink what we're wasting before we act.

I would be more inclined to say the US lacks more than Europe has excess.

I'm not talking about drive specifically, although now it seems it too can be added to the lists of shitty giggle practices and decisions.

Blows my mind people still trust them TBH. How many years of poor behaviors and bad decisions does it take for people in the know to move on. Understand there are a lot of non tech savvy users who wouldn't know, but I would expect hack

To you maybe, to lots of people it is. I wouldn't use a messaging app to send encrypted content in the first place. But I do want trusted privacy control which telegram provides

Agreed, if I need to send encrypted data, I won't be using a messaging app to do it.

Many reasons. Telegram is less evil then Whatsapp and it's best in class UI/UX. It's a compromise. Signal is horrible to use and inconvenient for most people but with e2ee.

Home is never far away. If something like that happened 99.9% of things can wait until I've been home to collect my wallet. Just as much chance if me loosing my wallet as most of the things you mentioned.

Bank App, NFC bank card payments? Tap and pay or paywave are the best thing to happen in mobile IMO. I don't even carry a wallet anymore. I had having to carry a phone and wallet. Now it's back down to only have to carry one thing
