Reminds me of when Ted Cruz twitter liked incest porn on 9/11 memorial day

they’ve got all the telemetry to infer what you’re doing and what your screen looks like

But for some reason, they still need to screenshot dudes fucking up excel spreadsheets and lowballing people on Facebook marketplace for 8 hours

Telemetry is such a sinister term.

Can I make notes of what you’re doing from a distance?

definition of surveillance

enable telemetry?

teleme if I can dip my balls in your mouth

Lets say they don’t use private data for training

(Continue reading when you’re done laughing):

Eventually, victims eventually run out of “free” storage.

The humble corporation will do a bunch of psychologically unethical tricks to basically hypnotize users into forking over those three digits at the back of the family credit card.

Now the victim’s data is effectively held ransom. Keep paying or lose it.

But they won’t stop paying. They paid for a year’s plan at a discount and the peaceful megacorp conveniently hit autorenew for them at checkout.

12 months roll around and oopsie, they already have the money. They could go through the refund process, but they’ve got shit on their plate, might as well keep it for another year.

I could keep rambling, but on Lemmy, I’m probably preaching to the choir about the first verse of genesis.

Then Windows tried to push their cloud backup on me… twice

This is major boundary respect by Microsoft’s standards

Do you snort it or is it a pill

The stories from Abu Ghraib alone make my skin crawl.

That was 20 years ago. I can only imagine it’s a lot worse for people detained by ICE right now.

I stole this from the other thread

A kernel, in computing terms, is the computer program that sits between applications and the hardware, facilitating their interactions.

This is the GNU/Linux operating system’s kernel (the part that is technically Linux) showing its architecture.

The columns represent the areas of functionality the kernel offers, the rows (from top to bottom) representing the level of abstraction from the hardware.

From the top; user space, where users barely have to think about the hardware enabling their applications. To the bottom; the hardware itself and the interfaces that enable the kernel to talk to them.

The lines represent the relationships between the various Linux kernel functions and structures - the text - that interact with one another directly.

The diagram is interactive in the sense that you can click the functions/structures and be taken to relevant resources to help a Linux kernel developer navigate the humongous amount of code that comprises the kernel, to accelerate debugging etc.

This diagram has been continuously developed for well over 15 years at this point and is somewhat iconic in the Linux world as it makes tangible the kernel and its thousands upon thousands of lines of code which I doubt any one developer has or could read and comprehend as a whole without the use of tools like this map.

You make a very good point and are clearly a lot more knowledgeable than me.

I’m going to rephrase. Windows 11 was shitty from the start. I can defend that statement, which we both agree with, to save my ego from internal bleeding.

They keep adding shitty things to it.

I skimmed an article on enshittification yesterday

It mentioned Windows

Can something be enshittified if it was shit from the start?

A lot of people have trouble getting motivated.

Your comment made me chuckle a little bit.

I ask myself that same question every day. What’s the point of anything? Do I really need to get out of bed, get to work, eat food, climb out of the debt trap I’m in or even browse Lemmy?

Something like this could help ease that daily question from myself. If it doesn’t work, it’s fine. Worth a shot. Free is cheaper than recreational drugs.

Very cool

get a cheap decoy phone and exclusively use it for watching mukbang videos and messaging “your ex” (you) to take you back

all while they clockwork orange your eyes and show you nothing but ads

I see that fifth puppy u aint slick

Must really have been super shit if you remember how awful it was 20+ years later

Anything in particular that sent you over the edge?

Sending nudes to your partner counts as production and distribution of pornography

This obviously deserves the death penalty
