- Comment on OpenAI sees human interaction as a competitor to ChatGPT's super assistant ambitions 1 week ago:
What I am telling you is that while that sounds like an amazing idea in theory, in practice almost no stores offer it. How can we do that if its not even an option? I have literally never seen it done anywhere here or in any of the other places I’ve traveled to (I’ve been to about 5 different states this year alone).

Most stores dont let you take the hand scanner, and it would consume that kiosk the entire time you’re shopping.
- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 1 week ago:
Its just whatever is built into copilot.
You can do a quick and dirty test by opening copilot chat and asking it something like “outline the vulnerabilities found in the following code, with the vulnerabilities listed underneath it. Outline any other issues you notice that are not listed here.” and then paste the code and the discovered vulns.

That seems to be the direction the industry is headed in. GHAzDO and competitors all seem to be converging on using AI as a force-multiplier on top of the existing solutions, and it works surprisingly well.
- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 1 week ago:
Having actually worked with AI in this context alongside github/azure devops advanced security, I can tell you that this is wrong. As much as we hate the AI, and as much as people like to (validly) point out issues with hallucinations, overall it’s been very on-point.

Agreed. Until we get full, 100% complete UIs like in Pantheon, this is just Photoshop and a voice synthesizer on crack (not literally, this is an analogy).

I wasn’t trolling, but okay. I probably should stop arguing with a bot designed to astro turf for big corporate data ownership.

Getting a little touchy are we? Try deep breaths, it helps with the anger issues 😉

Ahh there it is, I knew you’d do that.
I abide by my own lectures, I am actively putting effort into it and am 99% of the way there, which is 100% more than you.

Been slowly chipping away at those for the last decade (could have gone way faster but I’m lazy), and I’m almost completely google-free. I dont use any microsoft products at home (work forces me to), and Apple can eat my ass. My phone is a completely de-googled GrapheneOS device (I don’t have an issue relying on companies for hardware, just software), and hopefully in the future a Liberux or Pinephone linux phone.
I self-host my own movies, music, and cloud storage. I also host my own chat service for friends and family, built on top of XMPP. The services i do use are generally very privacy respecting like Signal for people outside of my social sphere, or freedom respecting like Lemmy (mostly weaned off of reddit).

Any time you rely on another company to handle your data, you are beholden to their whims, end of story. Don’t like what they’re doing? Too bad. Give up the convenience and host it yourself, or continue to be a slave to their corporate interests.

You can stream remotely via jellyfin if you expose your server to the internet. VPN is safer but not the only option.

There are only giant pickups here due to our stupid laws and regulations. They can’t make tiny pickups because the restrictions say there has to be so much thickness in certain parts of the body, and to be allowed to have poor gas efficiency there has to be so much space in the cab, etc.

Too much to retype here but they were basically gloating about how they verbally “destroyed” people whose opinions they didn’t agree with, and patted themselves on the back for being a typical toxic reddit debatelord.

Well no, we are going from first to like… Seventh gen tegra, which comes with a whole slew of additional hardware support. They are likely going to be hitting 120fps using DLSS, which is both neat and really sad.
HDR and 1080p on the device’s screen itself are big improvements. A lot of people will bellyache about no OLED but LCD tech in general has gotten pretty good and will last 30+ years instead of 10-at-best.
Most of the external hardware changes seem superficial, but things like the dual USB C and the larger joysticks (which hopefully means they won’t drift) should be noticeable quality of life enhancements.

- Comment on Eight years later, new but familiar-looking PebbleOS watches appear 2 months ago:
The pinetime using infinitime basically does that, albeit without always on and the heart rate monitor only fires off when the screen wakes up or when you go into the applet and click start. But i usually get around 2 weeks of battery life with it, maybe more.
Its probably not as good, but on the plus side, it’s like a $25-35 watch before shipping.
