Careful, they’re not ready to hear this one.

Canceling Disney subscriptions: because fascists tried to silence criticism against the idiocy that is the trump regime.

Canceling Netflix subscriptions: because conservatives hate trans people…. who could have seen this coming

This country is a joke, man. What are we even doing at this point? Are MAGAs seriously looking at this and believing this will “save” America?

I switched my last windows device to cachy os, and chose the plasma desktop. Not only does it look pretty, but all my games work great! Windows is no longer needed, suffice it to say.

There was a thread of people pointing out biases that exist on Lemmy, and some commenters obviously mention anti-AI people. Cue the superiority complex (cringe).

Some of these people actually believe UBI will become a thing for people who lose their jobs due to AI, meanwhile the billionaire class is actively REMOVING benefits for the poor to further enrich themselves.

What really gets me is when people KNOW what the hell we’re talking about, but then mention the 1% use case scenario where AI is actually useful (for STEM) and act like that’s what we’re targeting. Like no, motherfucker. We’re talking about the AI that’s RIGHT IN FRONT OF US, contributing to a future where we’re all braindead ai-slop dependent, talentless husks of human beings. Not to mention unemployed now.

Caveman humor

Not all AI is bad. But there’s enough widespread AI that’s helping cut jobs, spreading misinformation (or in some cases, actual propaganda), creating deepfakes, etc, that in many people’s eyes, it paints a bad picture of AI overall. I also don’t trust AI because it’s almost exclusively owned by far right billionaires.

I’m joining the linux cult. I’m switching my main gaming pc this week. I’m sick of seeing news of Microsoft aiding in atrocities and destroying game studios.

I got excited at “Microsoft is killing off Windows 11-“

Using a bazooka to fight explosions

I think Jesus’ backstory plays into the manipulative auntie strat where they made 1 singular sacrifice in their life and because of that you have to be grateful and mow the lawn, Willy.

ADB tools —> remove google services and other spyware apps —> oops, you bricked your phone

I’ve gone 3 years without ordering a single thing from amazon. I never intend to give them anymore money.

This still won’t make me pay for Netflix

Me, who never had a Netflix era but still never experienced this.

This would be a very easy self defense case for armed protestors.

AI becoming much more widespread isn’t because it’s actually that interesting. It’s all manufactured. Forcibly shoved into our faces. And for the negative things AI is capable of, I have an uneasy feeling about all this.

Do Orbic devices* run anything aside from stock android?

And that’s their choice to. But some people are sick of planned obsolescence and wish to use their phones for as long as the hardware doesn’t give.

This is what makes me excited for Linux phones to finally become viable. Every major phone manufacturer is making their UX worse and expanding their hidden spyware for the sake of profits.

Graphene os is great but you can only install it on a Pixel. But they give extended support for older devices which is nice. HOWEVER, people are making Linux builds for even older devices, including the iphone 6. Getting a new phone after 7 years might not be necessary in the future.
