I pretty much agree.

The only thing I would add is that it’s not our place to tell others to lose weight or to point out their weight; people already know they are overweight and that it’s unhealthy. We shouldn’t be policing other people’s bodies.

It’s also possible to be overweight and have body positivity; being overweight doesn’t equate to being unattractive.

There is a Magisk module to replace the Assisted-GPS Secure User-Plane Location (SUPL) provider to something that doesn’t use Google.

So the trump regime still hates trans people and denies climate change, to the point of vehemently working to deny the existence of both. Got it.

Do you remember the model number? I would like to research this.

Crypto is a scam.

‘Hallucinations’ are not a bug though; it’s working exactly as intended and this is how it’s designed. There’s no bug in the code that you can go in and change that will ‘fix’ this.

LLMs are impressive auto-complete, but sometimes the auto-complete doesn’t spit out factual information because LLMs don’t know what factual information is.

New OS versions feel like threats.

Thanks!

This of course requires using a JS management extension.

What’s a good extension for this? What do you use?

Wire.

Who holds the encryption keys? If it’s X/Twiiter, I wouldn’t trust it at all, especially considering who owns it.

I think the law should be changed; copyright law is kind of a mess, but I don’t know how to make it better. It would also need to be changed in a way that’s fair, which these companies absolutely do not want; fairness would mean the end of laws like the DMCA.

Thank you for mentioning that. I am able to see it by clicking through to the post in the Europe community.

Even after refreshing, I still can’t see your additions. 🙁

Yeah Google claims it’s not recording, storing or being sent the conversations or sharing them with anyone, and that this is all done ‘on-device’.

The thing is, I don’t trust them. At all.

Maybe the terms and conditions will silently change. Maybe their definitions of “recording” and “save” will change. Maybe they’re blatantly lying and are willing to pay a fine if they get caught.

Google’s whole business model is harvesting and selling people’s data, so I have to assume the worst intentions.

Exactly. And unless RCS with e2ee is made equally available to companies other than Google and is implemented by the carriers, RCS will continue to be a monopolistic data-harvesting grift.

I’m surprised there is not more outrage directed at Google over this.

And there are no better camera hardware else where

Sony and their Xperia phones would like a word.

I had trouble with it too. The site told me to disable all the privacy settings on my browser, at which point I simply decided that the whole thing was no longer worth my time and data.

Well unlike religion, science supports this truth. Decades of science and listening to trans people and their lived experiences.
