lol. they are exempt from copyright, they will be somehow exempt from this too.

the point still stands. they are allowed, we are not, and we need to hide doing it.

We need to figure out why humans are so quick to all clump up as one submissive blob, who follows the will of whoever claims to have power.

because people like when decisions are made for them, and they don’t have to think to make those decisions for themselves.

they can still impersonate you. the checkmark has lost its meaning when everybody has it.

And the US government is doing anything

isn’t doing anything

plug memory, play games. plug and play.

I am fully aware that trying to be a good human results in bad humans taking advantage of me often. I am not blind to it. But being a good human means that is going to happen for as long as bad humans keep being bad humans.

Being good to bad people does nkt make you better. It makes you be easier to be used.

but it’s asking a little much of users to start direct dowloading apks or whatever

you don’t need to be manually downloading apks. get a proper app store, like f-droid, and install jerboa that way.

I don’t get it though. uploading apps to the play store has already required devs to prove their identity for quite a long time.

I’m very interested in the Slate truck, which might be the only exception. I don’t want a pickup but I do want the lack of gadgets and surveillance they promise

that is not the future that musk is selling

I read this as implying whwt I say does not make sense:

Sue a transistor, see how it conducts itself.

this just proves wunami’s point

I love your writing style, sometimes it even checks out with your username, in a good sense. that’s a win too if you ask me!

I think Mozilla sees there is a bigger userbase interested in AI features than the userbase distancing themselves from it. and they need to be doing something to grow the market share because they are disappearing.

I don’t know whether it’s a good path for them. what I know is that thanks to volunteers like librewolf, I can continue using a browser on my terms.

on smart TVs and such Youtube ads are blocked by using a special youtube app. there is SmartTubeNext for AndroidTV, NewPipe for Android, there is an adfree patched version of the normal youtube app (only available through the Homebrew Channel app catalog, or via manual install). there’s probably something like that for Samsung too. but maybe you could also use Freetube through the PC, or the youtube website with uBlock aorigin on Firefox.

because the point of my example is that neither case works like that. you can’t sue weapons, you sue those who commanded their use. you can’t sue transistors… and what does that mean? it means you sue those that commanded the use of AI assisted weapons.

common sense, really.

does it have apps? or are you going to use a computer with it?

false equivalence. that’s like saying in defense of war crimes, sue the weapons and war vehicles, and see how they defend themselves in court.

I hope you’ll also happily live in an era where the powers discriminate against you, and try to eradicate you. the only comforting thought you will have, is there is no going back.

According to Google, it uses somewhere between 645 and 650 GWh annually, compared to between 150 and 204.4 Terawatt-hours (TWh) for Bitcoin.

sure but it’s also a much smaller operation

Btw I don’t support ads, I block them on all my computers and hopefully eventually on my TV with pihole if I can ever get it to work ;._.

pihole won’t block youtube ads. youtube ads are coming from the same domain.

what is your TV brand?
