Yeah I don’t know, that’s a whole bunch of unnecessary surveillance.

Make the device work locally, make it in any way tamper resistant and mandate a yearly check up at a certified autoshop.

The solution to problems does not have to be “control every possible thing at all times”.

People deserve not to be monitored around the clock.

I guess “lovely” was a typo? :D

The thing with signal on iOS is simply that there currently is no way to back up your messages.

And I’m kind of going to be a bit pissed if the only way to back up my messages will be to use signal’s servers after this feature is released.

Seriously, using something devoid of thought as “a sparring partner for your thoughts” seems to me like it’s a serious entry point to losing one’s grip.

Especially since the behaviour of those machines is steered by large corporations whose only goal is to get your ressources, be it money, skill or attention.

The problem being: Why pay you, if all they’d need is an AI agent?

Technology like this will not be used by the workers to prevent having to do bullshit jobs, it will be used by employers to prevent paying people.

In a world that lets everybody profit from the advances we make, that would be a good thing, but in the world I see us living in, that’ll just grow the gap between poor and rich.

Interesting, that’s a name I didn’t hear in a long time!

I’m wondering if matrix support is planned at some point (maybe even natively, I’ve seen that there is a plugin for it but the last commit to that was 2 years ago)

Man I really want to get into the playtest, but can’t find anybody who can invite me.

I’ve always loved dota but I’m more of an FPS gamer so it might really hit my vibe.

Unironically neomutt
