  I can understand why parents woulr be wary giving their kids to much access to technology thats why I’m pushing back and saying that going full Luddite returning to a landline is not the answer.

  People in free countries dont have data protection so im not at all surprised that people in an occupied territory during a war are being survelied on unencrypted services like txt and call.

  This is is so low down on the list of isreal bad things to care about. Strike people based on call information thats fine at least you’re targeting based on some intel.

  As for Microsoft storing the data, they are intentionally complicit but what can be done? They’re one of the Largest companies in the world.

  Processing 200million hours of audio data is pretty neat though. I’d love to read a write up from the engineers working on that. I Imagine voice to text Arabic is probably pretty bad and you dont want to have to go over that kind of data twice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cutting sucks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I cook well if I’m wanting to cook a nice meal, however thats not what’s happening here I’m just trying to hit my macros for the day. A bit of salt or pepper isnt going to do shit to improve the meal. Its not even flavourless, it tastes like chicken and veggies. If I dont care about the meal why should i waste any extra time preparing the meal?

  When I’m trying to maintain weight then I can enjoy food and eat normally. But cutting/bulking you got to be strict otherwise youre just dragging things out longer than they need to be. When you have fat person eating habits your entire life requires an eating disorder to counteract it.

  speak with someone about that

  Psy op advice. There is absolutely nothing a shrink could say that would stop me from demolishing an XL pizza in one sitting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cutting sucks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d rather have an eating disorder when I’m choosing to eat clean healthy food in the exact amount i want than eating to much unhealthy food and being unable to control my weight.

  However i dont class that as an eating disorder. Its fine to make the choice to put minimal effort into food. Especially when it becomes such an unenjoyable part of the day. And you have to eat big to get big 💪

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cutting sucks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  From personal experience its because we like food way to much. Its harder to eat less when the food tastes good. I found it was much easier when I treated food like an activity I had to force myself to do. I’d just cook some meat and boil some mixed veggies and then force it down. I was eating like 200-500g of pasta and almost a kg of food for dinner I felt so fucking sick after every meal.

  At that point even if I seasoned the chicken I was so sick of it that I would still not enjoy it.

  We already practice eugenics. Its a term that covers a lot of things. There’s a line between good eugenics and bad eugenics. I’d say secretly bputting birth control in drugs to control population is bad eugenics.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft confirms it made $27 billion after laying off 9,000 people, and its CEO physically cannot stop talking about AI⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Its funny how anti ai people here are. Even if you hate AI which I do you have to recognise it has uses and is disrupting industries. Billions of people use AI every day. Chatgpt has like 500m daily users, every google search gives an ai summary, most developer uses it. This is already here and people are adopting it.

  Even at it’s current state AI is useful. Then when you look at the progress of benchmarks and watch them getting better and better and better. You see the tooling being built out new developments every week. Its moving very fast.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you worried about your child’s screentime? Get a landline⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Its anecdotal at best. Its like if someone was saying “we should give kids school lunch so they preform better at school” and then I replied “I didnt have school lunch and I got top my class” you’d think ok that changes nothing.

  There is a lot of research to support the idea that adults are less likely to pick up a skill if they weren’t exposed to it as a kid. If you dont grow up working with technology to make things you’re less likely to go down that route as an adult or late teen. Thats a huge disadvantage in today’s age.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recommendations for games to play on a treadmill (i.e. not too intense)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Factorio, osrs, rimworld.

  I tried playing games like Tony hawk pro skater or racing games, but every time I’d turn I’d lose my balance and almost fall off the treadmill. So anything i could play had to be slow placed or not have a 3d camera.

  Uh ok mate thanks for your life story. Did computers even exist when you were in the 12th grade?

  I fail to see how this is at all relevant to kids in the modern age being kept away from technology. Not having technology access today is completely different to 30 years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you worried about your child’s screentime? Get a landline⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Who is this person and why should we care about their opinions on this?

  Artificially restricting your child from having a phone only makes them less prepared for the world. Think of all the kids who grew up without a computer and now they have no idea how they work and can’t do basic tasks.

  The middleground is a phone locked down with parental controls.

  Have you tried Beehaw? its defederated from all edgy instances and enforces strict behavior rules. From my experiences its more pleasant than any place on the internet ive seen. But its completely fair if you feel this place is frustrating and stressful to leave.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Like clockwork, Peacock is raising subscription prices again⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think if you’re someone who really enjoys watching movies and likes watching multiple times then buying media is absolutely the way to go. But most people turn their brain off and just zone out to whatever.

  For music I’d there is way more of a case for buying media to be the dominant way to consume music since your always listening to music over and over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Like clockwork, Peacock is raising subscription prices again⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ngl buying movies and TV shows is way worse than paying to stream them. If you buy them you’re left with a library of movies and shows youve already seen.
