- Comment on Support dips for U.S. government and tech companies restricting false or violent online content. 1 week ago:
Example?
- Comment on Governments identify dozens of Android apps bundled with spyware. 2 weeks ago:
Isn’t every app that’s not open source assumed to be spyware nowadays?
Wake me up when this sort of thing is actually illegal. Preferably punishable with jail time.
- Comment on Amazon is testing a Buy for Me button powered by agentic AI that will let users purchase products from third-party websites without leaving Amazon's app. 3 weeks ago:
Actually, this is a great idea in principle, because the inverse is possible.
We could use Amazon’s resources for search, then use an AI agent in a browser plug-in to replace the buy button and buy the product from somewhere else.
- Comment on Commentary by german Climate Impact Research Institute: Why investing in new nuclear plants is bad for the climate 1 month ago:
In the decades that people have been screaming about nuclear plants “taking too long to build” stalling progress, we could have built many nuclear plants and significantly reduced emissions.
We’ve kicked the can down the road for far too long. We are well past the point of preventing the devastating impacts of climate change we were warned about 20+ years ago.
If this institute is so convinced wind and solar are the answer, I hope they also have vast amounts of lithium pre-mined or a novel approach to energy storage that isn’t so damaging.
- Comment on Upvote RSS - Generate RSS feeds from social aggregation websites like Reddit, Lemmy, and Hacker News 2 months ago:
Reddit natively supports RSS feeds as well. The major feature here is comment support IMO.
- Comment on What is everyone using as a HTPC? 2 months ago:
Is there any way to fling YouTube videos to SmartTube from a smartphone?
That’s the one thing locking me into Kodi.
- Comment on YouTube is a hit on TVs — and is starting to act like it 4 months ago:
This is a hit on my TV, because it includes ad and sponsor blocking
- Comment on WhatsApp is adding the ability to save contacts within the app independently from your smartphone’s address book. 5 months ago:
Or reinforce your walled garden and strengthen user lock-in?
- Comment on Syncthing Android app discontinued 5 months ago:
This is sad. Google Play should never hold this weight the self hosted community. For Android users dedicated to open source software, F-Droid is the target.
I don’t think SyncThing users would have much issue with the app disappearing from Google. Doing away with Google is the goal.
- Comment on Mystery creator of Bitcoin identified, new HBO documentary claims 6 months ago:
Hal Finney, no?
The software engineer, cryptography expert, and cyberpunk who received the first ever Bitcoin transaction and had a neighbor named “Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto”?
- Comment on Someone Put Facial Recognition Tech onto Meta's Smart Glasses to Instantly Dox Strangers 6 months ago:
Surely the original “someone” is Meta. Good to have a redundant system I guess /s
