Maybe for the people who know the technology. But average joes don't allways know if they are using GenAI. So your statement is a bit misleading.

I have never seen a counter-argument to this. Why its being forced on the world? Lets here some execs from these companies answer that. My bet is on silence every time. Microsoft is forcing AI chat applications into the OS and preventing pe

Yep. I hear that "vicious attack" phrase from plenty of people with narcissistic personality disorders in the tech industry in an attempt to try and shift the narrative. Its sick, really.

I hear you. and I think AI has some good uses esp. assisting with challenges like you mentioned. I think whats happening is that these companies are developing this stuff without transparency on how its being used, there is zero accountabil

This is true, I know people personally That think AI agents have actual feelings and know more than humans. Its fucking insanity.

The problem is that its reached a tipping point. Comparing Excel to GenAI is just bad faith. Are you not reading the writing on the wall? These things have been going on for a long time and final people are starting to wake up that it needs

By not giving me to the choice to removing it, turn it off completely? In windows, Co-polit is installed and its very difficult to remove. Don't act like this isn't a problem, its a very simple premise.

If creations like art, music and writing ends up all being offloaded to compute, removing humans from the picture, its more that relevant, and reasonable. Unless your version of reason is clinical. then yeah, point taken. Good luck living o

It sounds like you are trying to label this issue in such a way as to marginalize someones view. We got to this point by not looking at these problems for what they are. Its not wrong to say something is wrong and it needs to be addressed.

I know this will probably not come off very well in this community. But there is something to be said about criticizing the very thing you are supporting. I know in this day and age, its not easy to survive without contributing to the probl

My take on the above, and I might be taking it out of context is that I think what is being said here is that the exploitation and grift needs to stop. And if you are working for a company that does this, you are part of the problem. I know

I feel you. All that time in the beginning of the mp3 era the record industry was perusing people for pirating music. And then when an AI company does it for books, its some how not piracy? If there is any example of hypocrisy, and that we

I'm pretty sure part of the reason of integrating everything on the board has some nefarious reasons, at least on Laptop's. Louis Rossman talked about a design flaw in Apple Macbooks where if the SSD fails, in my cases, your syste

I guess its a byproduct of a faster moving curve with improved technology. 20 years ago you didn't need to replace the entire platform for at least 10 years.

I don't know if I consider Framework laptops poor quality. I wonder if you are considering the impact to the planet though. We have tons of waste everyday from devices that are not built with sustainability in mind. Yes Framework has a

I think the farther allow non-free implementations of technology to go, the harder it will be to bring us back from the brink. We sacrifice our freedom now, because of convenience and feature sets thinking everything is going to work out in

IMHO I dont think people are considering what you lose when you cant upgrade, You get locked in to a device artificially created life cycle that's dictated by the manufacturer. I understand where you are coming from, I guess it just ma

by trinsic2 10mo ago
IMHO I think its not helpful to be comparing Framework's price to whats currently on the market. You are paying for sustainability. If you are doing this I think you are missing the point. This isn't a apples to apples comparison.

I'm choosing not to place the blame on them as I don't see it as something they can control. And I trust Valve to do the right thing over most any large game studio out there. The history of reputation and actions matter. I think

by trinsic2 10mo ago
If you say so. Sorry not see any of this. Valve is a good company and there reputation has been developed over the years as such.

by trinsic2 10mo ago
They have a track record of not engaging in these practices. It might be true that someday, we will get the wrong people in leadership positions at Valve that would entertain this behavior, but so far I don't think its going to happen.

If you want to see how bad this really is, take a look at AAA games like call of duty where they dynamically alter in game loot mechanics to get people to purchase in game items. Value is chump change in this department. They allow the prac

Yea im sorry. Im not buying this. I dont need protection from apps on my system. I know you think we need it, but I dont believe we need it. creating security systems like this only complicates the operation of apps.

I'm not understanding the need for this? I cant believe i'm parroting corporate lobbyists, but this seems like a solution in search of a problem. It sounds more like a way to take freedom away from people. Commercial systems are d

Yeah, im sorry. Valve is the last company people should be focusing for this type of behavior. All the other AAA game companies use these mechanics to deliberate manipulate players. IMHO valve doesn't use predatory practices to keep th

Here is where the pressure needs to be placed: >To reverse this strategy, a more assertive antitrust regime is necessary, but it’s not enough. We also have to reduce the many other public levers of support for elevated returns on capital

One person has more impact than you think. Many times it's one person that is speaking what's on the mind of many and that speaking out can bring the courage to do what needs to be done for many people that sitting on the fence. T
