  • Stasi 2.0

  • Newegg partners with PayPal to bring AI-powered shopping experiences to Perplexity and beyond

    Jump

  • I canceled my PayPal account a while ago. Guess newegg is next on the chopping block

  • U.S. ready to cut support to Scouts, accusing them of attacking 'boy-friendly spaces'

    Jump

  • They want to preserve the sanctity of intimate relations between boy scouts and their scoutmasters.

  • What's more dangerous nowadays: To not update Win11, or to update it?

    Jump

  • Every new internet-connected feature they add seems to also increase attack surface, so this is a weird dilemma. Still better to keep things up to date in the short term. In the long term, I've made the choice to switch to an OS that respects user preferences.

    Edit: I've also heard that the Windows 11 IoT enterprise edition doesnt come with all this bloat but still gets regular security updates

  • Why aren't you on #NOSTR

    Jump

  • Because projects funded by Jack Dorsey have a track record of going to shit

  • Breakthrough Diabetes Treatment May Deliver Insulin Through a Skin Cream

    Jump

  • It'd be a missed opportunity not to call it 'skinsulin'

  • Your old android phone is begging to be a cheap home server!

    Jump

  • I was considering doing smth like this on my old phone, since PostmarketOS at least partially supports it

  • Annoying dark pattern where no means maybe later

    Jump

  • "Got it, I'll send you fewer unsolicited dick pics"

  • Annoying dark pattern where no means maybe later

    Jump

  • YouTube is also guilty of this behavior. Every month it's "got it, we'll show you fewer shorts". Zero. I want zero.

  • What's the best Online Alarm Clock that's also Open Source?

    Jump

  • If it's for waking up at a scheduled time, why not go with a dedicated alarm clock that only needs a wall plug and maybe a backup battery?

  • Italian pasta is poised to disappear from American grocery shelves. Trump administration is set to impose duties of 107% on Italian pasta imports, among most punitive of tariffs it has levied.

    Jump

  • Time to say pasta la vista (sorry)

  • MORE pressure needs to be applied to the USA population

    Jump

  • I'd argue that it's not the population at large, but the millionaire and billionaire class that needs to experience maximum discomfort. You might have noticed that private jets started getting turned away from busy airports just before the vote to end the shutdown happened. Making the wealthy uncomfortable does more change in the US than making life more difficult for people on the brink of poverty with no safety net.

  • What is your main concern or issue about artificial intelligence?

    Jump

  • Accountability. When the AI causes measurable harm to an individual or group, will the owner of the service be held accountable in the same way that an individual would be? I doubt it. The corporations will just pay settlements and keep doing everything in their power to avoid being held responsible for what their AI says or does. People are too trusting of corporations and anthropomorphized software.

  • Reddit's Ban Evasion Detection Is Fucking Orwellian

    Jump

  • Be the change that you want to see on Lemmy. Make or participate in a community if you want it here.

  • I Have No Mouth & I Must Scream: Stories by Ellison, Harlan 9781497643079| eBay

    Jump

  • Feature parity or get out

    Jump

  • 1 hr old with that many similar sounding comments. It's definitely suspect

  • Flight delays aren't slowing down despite move to end shutdown

    Jump

  • Change only happens fast when the upper class and middle class are inconvenienced enough.

  • Microsoft bets on influencers like Alix Earle to close the gap with ChatGPT

    Jump

  • If the AI was as good as they claim it is, they wouldn't need to pay influencers to promote it.

  • FBI Warns of Criminals Posing as ICE, Urges Agents to ID Themselves

    Jump

  • Those who commit crimes against humanity should also ID themselves to make it easier for justice to find them in the future
