AI’s really just getting started, isn’t it.
- Comment on Mercedes is trialing humanoid robots for ‘low skill, repetitive’ tasks 8 months ago:
I believe we in Norway and Denmark identify ourselves much more as socialists than Sweden.
- Comment on Mercedes is trialing humanoid robots for ‘low skill, repetitive’ tasks 8 months ago:
This guy just drawed out socialism and it sounds amazing. Still, people are afraid of it even though the most well off countries in the world are socialistic countries (northern Europe)
- Comment on Mercedes is trialing humanoid robots for ‘low skill, repetitive’ tasks 8 months ago:
Why won’t anyone think of the poor shareholders!!!
- Comment on UK starts early trials of World's first pothole preventing robot 8 months ago:
It’s a fair guess, but my guess is the opposite. Prevention is far cheaper than repairing.
And technological advances almost always comes out on top in terms of costs in the long run.
And this is saving money for the government, not some CEO.
- Comment on UK starts early trials of World's first pothole preventing robot 8 months ago:
This guy acting like US invented cars and have divine knowledge from this experience.
Dude, Europe got 10x better public transport and are far less car dependent than the US.
Our cities are too old to be build with cars in mind.

Haven’t seen this in the EU. Anyone knows if this is prevented here?
- Comment on ASCII art elicits harmful responses from 5 major AI chatbots 8 months ago:
Researchers surprised it very rarely got harmful responses do to their more harmful questions and requests. More at never.

Seems like this practice is banned in the EU, yeah.

Thank you so much! I was just about to list up all my services to get the right architecture, and I’ve added Portainer to my list.

Our man is hard flexing on us mortals right now.
- Comment on [Question] RaspPi5 with Pi-Hole, Tailscale and Traefik 8 months ago:
The Pi-Hole is mostly for my phone. Can’t really block ads in apps with uBlock.
Laptop is mostly for remote access to my other services.

Thanks for also recommending docker! I’ve read about it, but I was not sure if it would be useful here.

- Comment on TikTok faces calls for ban amid claims of anti-Israel ‘indoctrination’ 8 months ago:
I’m not sure what you mean. FDA is protecting consumers, right?
From their website:
The Food and Drug Administration is responsible for protecting the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy, and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products, and medical devices; and by ensuring the safety of our nation’s food supply, cosmetics, and products that emit radiation.
I can’t see how this is related to propaganda. FDA is protecting, propaganda is hurting and misleading.
- Comment on TikTok faces calls for ban amid claims of anti-Israel ‘indoctrination’ 8 months ago:
They ban it because TikTok won’t do western propaganda exclusively. You can’t even say in the media that Israel is wrong, even if you use 100% documented sources.
- Comment on Apple backtracks, reinstates Epic Games’ iOS developer account in Europe 8 months ago:
Of course they do. They have acted like they got a choice for too long, so it’s good to see they won’t get away with it.
- Comment on Is the Fediverse truly decentralized? Not exactly. 8 months ago:
Whoever wrote this blog post missed the point in the way the fediverse is decentralised.
It’s not about hosting. It’s about ownership. And that means hosting can change at any moment. Because no one company decides anything.
That’s why we really want the fediverse. Because it’s not build for late stage capitalism and monopolies.
- Comment on Apple is working to make it easier to switch from iPhone to Android because of the EU 8 months ago:
Amazing work by the EU.
- Comment on AI hiring tools may be filtering out the best job applicants 8 months ago:
I don’t think you know how LLM’s are trained then. It can become racist by mistake.
An example is, that there’s 100.000 white people and 50.000 black people in a society. The statistic shows that there has been hired 50% more white people than black. What does this tell you?
Obvious! There’s also 50% more white people to begin with, so black and white people are hired at the same rate! But what does the AI see?
It sees 50% increase in hiring white people. And then it can lean towards doing the same.
You see how this was / is in no way racist, but it ends up as it, as a consequence of something completely different.
TLDR People are still racist though, but it’s not always why the AI is.
- Comment on EU to hit Apple with €500m fine over antitrust music streaming complaint from Spotify 8 months ago:
I wouldn’t call it hate by any means. We more feel sorry for them. Even though over 50% did it to themselves.
- Comment on EU to hit Apple with €500m fine over antitrust music streaming complaint from Spotify 8 months ago:
You’re welcome back if you like.
- Comment on Are there any genuine benefits to AI? 8 months ago:
This already happened with the industrial revolution. It did make the rich awfully rich, but let’s be honest. People are way better off today because of it.
It’s not perfect, but it does help in the long run. Also, there’s a big difference in which country you’re in.
Capitalist-socialism will be way better off than hard core capitalism, because the mind set and systems are already in place to let it benefit the people more.
- Comment on Are there any genuine benefits to AI? 8 months ago:
Very true. I learned how to code surprisingly fast.
And even the mistakes the AI made was good, because it made me learn so much seeing what changes it did to fix it.
- Comment on Apple is officially dropping iPhone support for web apps in the EU - The Verge 8 months ago:
The probably couldn’t afford the development /s
But on the positive side, Apple is now forced to allow other app stores on all phones in the EU.
So that’s probably a bigger win than this is a loss.
- Comment on Apple is officially dropping iPhone support for web apps in the EU - The Verge 8 months ago:
“Finding the application is half the innovation”
- Comment on Apple won’t be forced to open up iMessage by EU 9 months ago:
RCS only increased the meta-data the cellular providers and messaging apps is selling on you.
They don’t care about the content in your message, so e2ee is useless in this case.
They’re selling who you message, when, and where you are when you do it. They collect data on which cellular tower transmitted your message. And now with RCS they also know when you read the message.
Which means RCS is just as useless in terms of privacy. They only enriched the data. So it’s probably worse.
- Comment on Apple won’t be forced to open up iMessage by EU 9 months ago:
I don’t know why people have more faith in cellular providers. They have been selling all of your data before Meta was a thing.
- Comment on Apple won’t be forced to open up iMessage by EU 9 months ago:
US is still stuck on SMS, so much that they even made an upgrade to it with RCS.
It felt like an upgrade to the DVD disk when you have the Internet.
- Comment on Who makes money when AI reads the internet for us? 9 months ago:
Unfortunately, most people don’t care. That’s why most get their news from Facebook or TikTok, and only read headlines.
