No no, I disagree I think that shoving AI into all these apps is a solid plan on their behalf. People are going to stop recall and shut it off. So instead they put AI components into every app, It now has the right to overview everything you’re doing and every app collects data on you sending it home to update their personalized models for you so they can better sell you products.

Microsoft Teams: Awww, come on, you just motioned all of me.

In support I say we should make a national registry of 6 ft deep holes with no logs and the ability just to remove one of the holes with a click. We don’t know how they get there, we don’t know how they go away…

There’s not enough information supplied.

Business Insider has a substantial paywall version. It’s an essay from Brittany Patterson read to a Jane Ridley, verified by Business Insider.

It’s much more detailed and less flowery than Reason.

Mother of 4

Soren (tween in question) is homeschooled

Had to take another 1/4 to the doctor

Soren could not be found so they left him, they have 16 acres, she assumed he was outside

She took 1/4 to the doctor

Soren got bored and went to talk to a friend’s grandmother that worked at a gas station, she wasn’t there, he went to the Dollar Store, police brought him home.

Was stopped by a concerned neighbor, he ignored her and kept walking. She called the cops.

Deputy hauled her off, booked her and locked her up under arrest on a charge of wreckless conduct. Out on bail.

wreckless conduct: Daring or bold, but also irresponsible Willfully disregarding rules, norms, or social conventions Showing a lack of concern for consequences or potential harm to others

The deputy said it wasn’t safe because it was a dangerous road. She said all kinds of things could have happened, including being kidnapped.

30 MPH road

Maybe he was doing something he REALLY shouldn’t have been doing.

Maybe they had it out for her for truancy vs homeschooling

Maybe she REALLY pissed in the deputy’s Wheaties,

Maybe it’s not the first time?

Smalltown shenanigans, police overreach, nanny state neighbors are friends with the cops.

Take your pick; it might make a nice bingo card.

I’m surprised someone hasn’t made a list up of right-wing drivel to ‘ban’ and have it disappear

TBF, the level of privacy afforded at work will never be usable in most companies.

At scale, it’s a security nightmare. PII, HIPAA, PCI, If OPSEC can’t at the very least go back and see what happened in private channels, it’s going to be a hard sell.

Elon Mush: too rich to care.

ok ok, Mostly too rich to care, he’s pretty thin skinned.

Seriously though, when he was forced to complete the purchase of twitter, I thought he was just an idiot who couldn’t run a company. Over the years, I’ve come to believe that he’s an idiot who doesn’t care about anything but staying rich and none of the really stupid stuff he’s doing pushes the needle.

He’s still an idiot, but if it doesn’t break him, he just wants the attention and more opportunities to make more money.

A: the driver knows they’re locked from the inside

B: they’re always locked form the inside, they didn’t just stop working because the car lost power

C: lithium fire/smoke makes thinking more difficult than an ICE engine fire

EV complicates it

Tesla made it really bad by electric-only locks.

It’ll run on 3rg gen if you patch out the install limiter, who knows how long they’ll let that work.

It’s not my main but I do have edge installed on Linux. I keep it around That’s both a vanilla Chrome install and the GPT-4 interface.

I keep most of my AI local but once in a while I need something that’s outside of the llama realm

Mostly electronics, pharmaceuticals, medical equipment. Honestly though, that’s probably just a matter of convenience because we import most of that stuff.

Bernie could actually get republican voters

nah, not buying that one. Never seen ANY inclination for them to call him anything but a dirty socialist.

People continuingly act like 1/3 of the country just doesn’t vote.

do you have any data that suggests overwise?

We saw in 08 with Obama they’ll show up for a Dem running a populist campaign,

63.6% turnout. Less white votes, more minority votes than 2000 or even 2004

Neoliberalism isn’t popular enough to win elections

This we can ardently agree on.

edit: spaces for formatting

I’m more concerned that a populist Dem is a unicorn. The closest I’ve ever seen is Sanders or AOC and they’re hardly mass appeal popular.

Anyone with a solid conscience and mass appeal that we actually know wouldn’t want the job.

A little bit of me dies everytime a “moderate” conflates populism with evil.

conflate sure, but they’re not mutually exclusive.

They’re better at smelling cancer than humans.

I’m not sure we can definitively say they hallucinate less.

Hmm, I swapped FB with Lemmy for my quick dial when the elections heated up, guess I’ll just leave it that way.

Don’t weld me to the wall mommy!!!

Because Florida can’t do anything unless they get to piss people off.

Some people want convenience of accessing the data between devices.

It’s okay to store stuff in the cloud just make it’s encrypted deeply and thoroughly and that the user is the only person with the key.

There’s absolutely no reason for them to have access to this data.
