  As would I, but where exactly are we going comrade?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple's Greed Is Finally Backfiring⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought this was a really fascinating video, since Apple Explained is one of the biggest Apple-Stans on youtube. He finally realized that his favorite company is wrought with greed, and was willing enough to make a video about it. The content or his ideas don’t necessarily matter; it’s his revelation that’s intriguing.

  So can my 12 year old ThinkPad. You do not need brand new hardware to run ai models, average hardware can do the same.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Women Dating Safety App 'Tea' Breached, Users' IDs Posted to 4chan⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The Tea app is agnostic. While its purpose and main use case was made for the safety of women in the dating scene, it was inevitably used to spread exaggerated or misleading information about otherwise innocent men. Imagine being a privacy-conscious individual, and breaking up with a toxic woman. She could go on to spread lies about you and even upload pictures of you to the reverse image search/ai. So even if you were doing everything right from a privacy standpoint, you’d still end up in someone’s private database, subjected to ai training, shared with the government, or who knows what. While I do see the purpose of apps like these, they can effectively take away someone’s privacy/dignity without them even knowing about it. Now imagine being a 4channer, someone probably even more privacy-conscious than lemmings, and possibly experiencing mental disorders like paranoid schizophrenia or autism; of course they’re drawn to hacking an app that would destroy their privacy. They are not sane individuals, so this event really was inevitable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brave browser blocks Windows feature that takes screenshots of everything you do on your PC⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can’t block all of Windows spyware. The best case of action would be to install an alternative operating system like Linux or a BSD-derivative. It’s counter-intuitive to “fuck Microsoft” when you are still using their OS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefox 140 Brings Tab Unload, Custom Search & New ESR⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes I’m pretty sure that this has been an option. For example when I go to imdb.com and right click on the tab, it prompts me to “add imdb” for search. Many such cases on many different websites. Maybe they changed the term or function.

  You’re not making sense, please elaborate. Are you agreeing or disagreeing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In 2025, Apple still makes it hard to play your own MP3s, so I wrote my own app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You need to use an external device to do that, making it extremely convoluted and annoying to do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crazy idea, a phone setting that when enabled changes touch sensitivity settings to be more selective of touch inputs while in the shower..⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d be too paranoid to use my phone in the shower, it’s covered with cameras and microphones and may be full of backdoors as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you're still on Lemmy...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t think about that one, I’ll have to check it out later

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you're still on Lemmy...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So what’s the alternative to Lemmy? IRC? It seems like every social media platform has problems.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forbidden weapon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He had been training for that moment his entire life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I kinda do know but I'm posting this as a joke.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I took a small hiatus from Lemmy and came back to this- what is happening?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This would be awesome, but something else I thought of would be DRM. If you don’t have the correct version (like Linux and a few android custom roms) then you would stream at really low quality. So if you even came up with a free smart tv os, it would lack quality streaming

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So you think it is from the manufacturer?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My blog now has Lemmy comments⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What an awesome implementation for Lemmy!
