But that requires actually READING 😖 /j

Ah, close enough. Both are owned by billionaires who have everything to gain from distorting the truth

Isn’t WSJ directly own by Bezos himself, or am I confusing them for something else?

Wait, this is a bad thing?

Wait, browsers still had RSS support? I thought that was deprecated a decade ago. I’ve been using dedicated apps for them

Microsoft appeared to walk back Recall until they suddenly brought it back unannounced and doubled down. So I’ll believe it when I see it

Mozilla try not to anger their user base with their new features challenge (impossible)

Keep taking Ls Amazon!

Good.

Normal citizens actually pay for AI??

Technically we have one. It’s called the Google Pixel 3 XL (literally everything runs on it somehow)

This may finally convince my parents to get rid of their ring camera. Thank you

Why would I trust the big corporations that has been actively helping the Trump Administration? Call me paranoid, but I think there’s going to be a big crackdown at silicon valley soon

You can also disable ai via toggling browser.ml.enable to false on about:config. For now at least…

Copyright can be used to in a good way. Unfortunately, its mostly used by big corporations as a battering ram to extract as much money as possible from smaller businesses and even just individuals

Yeah, if Android effectively kills fdroid, then it essentially becomes like iOS. Whilst you can technically still sideload, apps must get certified by Google themselves and there’s no way they’ll allow 90% of fdroid unless its their Google Play versions.Tbf though, I didn’t know the background thing, which just goes to show that neither of them are ideal. Especially since Apple locks down their devices really hard which turns things like transferring files without a cloud service into a challenge. Therefore, in the future, I might just use a dumb phone for basic phone calls and text messages (meanly just for things like job applications or services like pharmacies) and a Linux phone for everything else. That’s assuming Linux phones have evolved just enough to be usable alongside a dumb phone for what it can’t do, which is SMS.

iOS would be the better alternative, if it wasn’t for the hardware they run on. After all, Apple is infamous for their blatant planned obsolescence on their iPhones since the iPhone 6. Unfortunately, Google seems to be following Apple in this way as well since they launched an update that made the Pixel 6a’s battery so much worse than before. Therefore, we must all have a dumb phone + Linux phone set up…or something

TFW more than half of my phone’s applications is getting thanos snapped and it’s also carrier-locked

I’ve tried applying for jobs that didn’t really require my degree but was adjacent to it like data entry and help desk after graduating unemployed, only to be met with more rejection and failure. It’s as if my degree doesn’t exist. Unless you have any suggestions for a job that only requires a non-specific degree, but I’ve heard having a degree in itself isn’t valuable to employers at all unless it’s related in some way to the job. Either way, I’m trying to stay motivated to make projects on the side to hopefully refine my programming even further, but not only do I don’t have any ideas for projects that don’t already exist, but I’m not fully convinced that it will be worth the time. Especially considering every other attempt that involved working and studying for many hours have blown up in my face so far.
