  • I think that’s a different discussion.m. We can make excuses all day for how people end up with extreme views. It doesn’t change anything. The reason it occurs is part of human nature, a weakness that one has to choose to overcome on a daily basis or not. Choosing wrong too often and there might be no way back.

    I find this most evident in people who suddenly shift right when they end up in some sex scandal, they move towards the group that is most forgiving of such events and lose themselves in the shift. Russel Brand and Musk are two examples.

    Knowledge seeking for the sake of knowledge seeking is something totally different. It requires accepting one knows nothing and despite all the knowledge gather now knows less. It requires a humility that can be uncomfortable.

    Few end up adding significant new knowledge. Those who do maintain a humbleness as the recognize the efforts who came before them.

    Those who pretend become exploiters, it takes little effort to reveal their search was only ever for loopholes. Those people are another form of extremist.

    If you don’t like being called out for a both sides argument, doubling down on the both sides argument isn’t going to progress the conversation.

    It only serves to illustrate your lack of intelligence and knowledge. You’re so focused on Palestine you don’t give a fuck out the war on women that is also taking place.

    Anyone who’s main focus for this election is Palestine is best case scenario, a moron.

    Currently, mainly just cooking.

    In the future, I’m hoping to leverage it to create video content. I’ve actually been disappointed in its usefulness for writing sci-fi, it tends to want to argue. But based on the surreal images that it can created I am hoping that can be translated into creating 3D scenes that can be used to extract video.

    Google is free to use. It still is. There is no price.

    Facrbook, fee to use. Still is.

    Both have been enshittified. There is no price being gouged.

    The services they do sell are to advertisers, those costs are not being cut, they are focused on improving their targeting to attract more revenue.

    Enshittification is a very simply concept; only product quality is measured. There might be price gouging but turn doesn’t have to be.



  • Why is android superior then iOS, why, and how is it safer then iOS

    It isn’t superior or safer. Whatever you did to your phone to install spyware will not project you any bette by using android.

    I’m not even sure what you could have installed that would break out of the app sandbox. It’s likely to I have some device management profile installed, but even that seems unlikely. It’s also possible your phone compromised but that’s typically requires a state level attack.

    I’m actually leaning towards drug use or carbon monoxide poisoning. Yeah, it is that weird and you sound that paranoid.


  • This is copying a similar feature Apple added a while back.

    Given androids hardware situation and love for collecting all the data l, I understand why people don’t want to give biometrics to their Android devices.

    With the data and access our smartphones have, a numerical pin regardless of length, should not be an option anymore.

    I am surprised that neither platform is allowing voice authentication as a biometric. I’m not sure if Google supports it but Siri can already tell who is speaking.


  • Microsoft and Nvidia are investing but they are both positioned to gain a return on investment by cloud hosting and hardware sales respectively.

    Apple dropping out indicates they saw behind the curtain, did the math and realized they can create their own platform for less.

    There is no path to profitability for them. Unlike other recent billion dollar tech companies there are no human workers to squeeze. Hardware doesn’t work for less than minimum wattage.
