Yet not uniform in its appearance, nor present for 50%.

It looked wrong as I wrote it. Thanks.

Yep, the dems need to hold him accountable. As do the beurocrats. They always seem to let him get away with it. It’s infuriating.

Vote.

On the flip side, so many apps these days keep data local, but the master copy is all on their servers.

You want to back up SMS, photos and any downloads, documents, files or data. It pretty much needs to be manually done.

A soft-fluff factory is dangerous if there aren’t safeguards. It’s not that ai or llms are dangerous as a concept. It’s that they are being given authorities and access that they shouldn’t as there are inadequate safeguards built in and there are inadequate punishments for the neglectful development. Make the companies and users liable for the errors and they will work hard in that rather than chasing investment and PR with all their effort.

Its often the case with new technology that the law doesn’t match how they are used. However, as technology progresses, thinks are scaled and rolled out at a much more rapid pace. Hence the term hyperscalers. The law needs to catch up. Instead the law seems to give concessions. Partly due to regulatory capture, partly due to economic reasons, partly due to lack of understanding, partly due to corruption.

Parties are a useful shorthand for their beliefs. It would be an unreasonable burden for voters to have to do the level if research required for all elections if there were no parties.

Further, national, statewide or even local government would not function as efficiently as there would be groups of people without agreement at every level.

Trans means across, beyond or other side of, also. It’s used when describing someones gender, like the chemical meaning, to mean expressed opposite, but it is a complex topic. Its whybcis is used also, like the chemistry meaning, being a scientific term.

Wouldn’t a reverse trans surgery still be a trans surgery? That’s themselves point. Gender confirmation. In this mythical case, confirming the gender they want the person to have rather than the gender they are.

So clearly any previous claims about safety, child safety and surgical regret are completely ingenuine. Quelle surprise?

Yes, and if you’re able to work and only have months to live, that’s the best use of your time. For the benefit of society, of course. But also to keep your dignity and not be a freeloader. Without those 200 or so extra hours of work, the share market might dip. Or worse, you might get to spend some time with friends or family. Or going to medical appointments.

Yes, when ads companies did surveys to match ads with your interests, I’m like, no, irrelevant ads are even easiest to ignore.

Which is why open source is important. Holes can be found and software telemetry can be avoided.

A lot of the telemetry is sold to people as being in their benefit. Monitor installed software for updates, location data for weather etc.

If the companies had to document the amount they collected in cash for each user based on ads and send it as a mk though report, it might be eye opening. The source if the cash would also be good. So did companies pay directly or dodgy intermediaries and data brokers.
