The harm of "AI" is barely in the technology itself, it is in the hype around it. The narrative.
Maybe we wouldn't be putting near so much water & energy into it if it weren't for the hype.
The hype which says we all must want chatbots.
The hype which says its wrong to hinder this tech.
The hype is what leads companies to fire people in place of subpar automation.
The hype clutters our digital tools with misguided help.
Buries human art.
The tech isn't new, its just larger than ever before.
lmao
My mom is definitely conservative and she loves quinoa
I'm an anarchist who hates it
(Although I do agree that sushi and quinoa aren't really suitable for school lunches)
i hate phone manufacturers so much at times
why the fuck did you install 1.3gb of updates, only to remove features i actually liked, make the home screen overexposed, add more bload apps and forget the fucking login that will now fire a notif every minute wtffff
and i didnt even upgrade from android 13 yet???????
tf u smoking
i hate phone manufacturers so much at times
They also more and more frequently lock their bootloaders because most consumers don't give enough of a shit about stuff like this
Someone in ISS just shared with me a method to enable dev mode on the school Chromebooks
So guess what I'm doing today during driver's ed
(Yes, I will be backing it up and installing proper Linux on it)
That moment when you need to write an email to someone at school but only know their first name
Currently guessing based on when they joined the school district :/
So apparently my parents are surprised that I want CDs for albums
My main rationale behind getting CDs is because I can use them when my parents take away my phone lmao
(I also just like physical media)
My personal experience with koreader has been pretty great; I don't know what the stock Kobo software is like (I run a Kindle Paperwhite, myself), but koreader has a bunch of features like easy rotation control, good highlighting, and lots of configuration options
It's even got an SSH daemon!
God, I hate OS-level key managers getting in the way of my security keys
On Linux it's just "plug in & tap the key," on Windows it's like 4 clicks for no goddamn reason
They do the same shit on Android
After 13, I couldn't be assed to figure out how to get my goddamned passkey to work, as they make it look like the only option is to attach it to your Google account or some shit
