Not sure how Kagi will help with my supermarket loyalty card but thanks anyway

Tried and couldn’t! Was hoping someone here could highlight something I missed but seems no.

Eh, not really. I don’t use google and I block trackers anyway.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about Kagi but it’s very difficult for me to justify paying for search…

Probably the first time he had to wear pants to work in a while
- Comment on Why Apple Just Gave Up on AI - ColdFusion 3 days ago:
They still need natural language processing to translate the LLM to something the device understands. LLMs just make the interface more human-ey.
- Comment on Why Apple Just Gave Up on AI - ColdFusion 5 days ago:
For along while I wondered what would happen when Apple (a company who prides itself on it’s products “just working”) inevitably collided with the generative AI hype train.
At first I thought they might stay away of the whole thing, but they didn’t and it’s been funny watching them struggle to integrate even the simplest aspects of generative AI into their products. Anyone who knows how LLMs work know that it is wholly different than the natural language processing that goes into Siri.

Shame there is no plan for a physical release but still cool

The article that you are commenting on is the original source for quote and does not contain any mention of prequels.

The article I shared is the original source and does not contain a mention of prequels.
The link you shared just now appears to be an AI slop summary with added hallucinations.
I am arguing with you because from the perspective of someone reading the article I shared, you brought up an entirely unrelated topic in order to complain.

? that quote is not in the article ?

I blocked every single person instance and community on Lemmy and my mental health has improved 10x

I have a long list of things I disliked about the JJ Abrams movies, but the casting was certainly nowhere on it.

? it doesn’t say anything about prequels?

Nice to see they are still working a Trek movie, and also nice to see (IMO) that it could be connected to the main timeline.

I’m upset you beat me to this!
- Comment on 'The Truth Is Paywalled.' Internet Vets Lament the State of the 'Open' Web 1 week ago:
Yeah exactly, well said. I think for a lot of people the advent of paywalls felt like taking away a free thing, instead of a return to the norm. Personally when it comes to journalism I prefer a paywall to advertiser-supported.
- Comment on 'The Truth Is Paywalled.' Internet Vets Lament the State of the 'Open' Web 1 week ago:
The argument that paywalls somehow ruin the open parts of the Web always fell flat for me. It is trivial to contribute to the Web for free if one wishes. Nobody is forced to paywall their content.
- Comment on If AI was all it was cracked up to be, it wouldn't be shoved in your face 24/7 2 weeks ago:
It doesn’t really improve productivity much for me. And if you take into account the emails I receive from coworkers written with copilot then I’m actually doing more work to decipher what they are trying to say.

Looks great, can old Google location data be imported?
- Comment on If AI was all it was cracked up to be, it wouldn't be shoved in your face 24/7 2 weeks ago:
It is just advertising. The more I think about it the more I can’t think of any practical use for generative AI that doesn’t involve essentially spamming everyone.

I’ve been impressed with F-Droid’s press releases. If they have a snowball’s chance in hell of stopping this, they are certainly giving it a clear and concise effort.
- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 2 weeks ago:
Siri is bad but at least it has natural language processing. I think it’s so funny how CEOs have no idea how LLMs work.
Over a year ago Apple literally ran an ad showing off an “Apple Intelligence” feature that you could tell nobody at Apple ran by the actual engineers before deciding it was possible. It (of course) has still not been released.

Consider yourself blessed to be unaware of the entire digital media ecosystem that targets insecure white men via their preferred fandoms and is dedicated to blaming women and minorities for their issues.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
This is hilarious to me so I looked up the original article and I am pretty sure that it is largely written by AI.
Also, not that it needs or deserves any kind of analysis, but the central premise (as much as I can decipher from all the ChatGPT fluff) appears to be: “Because Trekkies are conservative, Star Trek is doing everything it can to make men hate it.” which obviously makes no sense. Why would a company create a piece of media knowing it would be unpopular?
Anyway thanks for the laugh, OP.

Thanks, I fixed my comment, the article said “similar to that found in the Kindle Colorsoft” and I didn’t read further.
- Comment on Aura introduces a $499 e-ink digital photo frame that lets you go cordless 3 weeks ago:
This is really cool, I love that it has a gentle front light. But pricing aside, having to take off the wall to charge every three months is a dealbreaker. I wonder if a solar panel along the top edge of the frame would have been sufficient to keep the battery charged for most situations.
Regardless I hope we see more of these. Even if the Kaleido screen is FAR from photo quality.
