  • I used to think he was just a broken-clock idiot with good intentions, now I think he's insane and has no idea wtf he wants or is doing.

  • Bribing people with technologies that do nothing. Since cost and worth aren't really quantifiable with some of these technologies, all of these actions might as well be seen as just shallow bribes and favors to those in power.

  • spying on them sounds likely to me.

    Grok is going to be a fascist taddletale for everything done on a computer or phone.

  • Download wikipedia, store water, canned food, rice and beans. Get a capable pistol and some ammo.

    buckle up, buttercup

  • It was there before he showed up.

  • Roll Out Grok ASAP

    Ok, LLMs aren't really my bread and butter, but what exactly would it be rolled out to, and to do what?

    Is it all just smoke and mirrors to cut Musk a check?

  • I loathe Cracker Barrel.

    Why? I'm a Southerner that knows Southern food, knows what a good, family resturant is, or in some town's cases, was, and I blame them for the systematic deletion of small family restaurants across the South.

    Make the food good enough and intice people with fake antiques and candy and you too can run everyone out of business with tacky crap in place of anything anyone would consider soul.

    Ugh, fuck them. So tacky, fake and greedy. I feel wrong being in one, like oil and water.

  • I'm glad I voted for Harris and I'm not complicit in shipping someone's family member to a concentration camp or helping a pedophile get elected.

    Some would argue this as a bad move, but considering Gaza will be a parking lot by December anyway, congrats, benchwarmers. You played yourselves.

    Some lawyer on Capitol Hill: "Hmm..."

    Not if, when.

    Who knows, the same demand may be given of certain other federated social media sites in a few months.

  • Don't feel pressured by me. If you feel pressured yourself, it may be a form of projected guilt.

    If you don't find privacy and security important enough to give up your connectivity or usability, that's perfectly fine. I don't have to live with it.

  • Or just someone chasing the internet identity dragon, who never stopped to think for themselves about who they wanted to be, endlessly chaining to the next wave of trends and goings-on.

    What a horrible way to live. It's like disappointment-maxxing.

  • You always have a choice. You can ditch your morals entirely, give up, be subservient to the capitalists and give your identity over fully to the system like the good little consumer slave you are and enjoy your normie life looking at your normie phone and toss us all out as tinfoil-hatted weirdos who almost convinced you to make your life worse for the sake of self-sufficiency, independence and privacy.

    No one in the real world will ever know, care, or judge you. Only you will know that you gave up, that every location you exist in is known about by someone behind a monitor being overseen by fascists. Every day! You can live with that, right? That's a small thing to give up in the grand scheme of things, isn't it? At least Youtube loaded today, right? It's all worth it, lol.

    Just remember to type "thanks" in google keyboard whenever you want them to know you appreciate them. They log it.

  • There is an interesting new breed of flip phones that can be tethered to for internet access. I could imagine a flip-phone + laptop setup being perfect for a lot of users here.

  • I'm going to try all of them. I've always wanted to just go to ebay, buy a 6T and try some of these operating systems. It's the target phone for about half of them. What interests me the most is Plasma Mobile on PostmarketOS. It looks slick and not too dissimilar from Android.

    Linux on mobile is very model specific. The 6T isn't even perfectly supported by anything, it's just supported enough to be functional.

    Why the 6T? Just the right mix of hardware that released with the right mix of software to make it ideal. the Pixel 3 also had a lot of Linux compatibility.

  • This sucks for the average person but, well, everything tends to. If you don't look for avenues around literally everything "default", you're being scammed. They don't, so they will be.

    I do, so I'll be carrying a Oneplus 6T and slapping a mobile Linux OS on it for my needs.

    that's not usable!

    For you.

  • you there, what temperature does this read?

    "What temperature does Trump want it to read?"

    you're hired!
