Considering the unrelenting data snatching capacity of the desktop app, there are only 3 plausible reasons Facebook, a company so maliciously money hungry that it might just prove the absence of god, would choose to deprecate it

1: something is fundamentally wrong with the app and they feel they are liable for greater damages than their potential profits

2: they’ve improved their data collection on browsers to the point that both methods are equally profitable

3: they don’t believe they need the money. (This one sincerely terrifies me)

Huh, so he’s attempting to create a caste of conspicuously president-aligned workers. That seems like an interesting and not-at-all dangerous idea

This sent me down a small rabbit hole. As it turns out, agi was “coined” by like 20 unique projects and people over the last 70 years according to poorly sourced news articles on dozens of sites. Some of them seemed almost reputable. Looking at you, Forbes and medium.

Why even throw that in there? They must not offer their writers anywhere near enough time to properly research anything, and that really casts a shadow over them, in my eyes.

Niche history and mineralogy topics. Just looking for threads to tug. I found that it offered me threads but they often did not lead anywhere relevant or outright did not exist. Which is fine, but kinda removes my need for AI. If I have a general purpose question, I check certain websites. I already know how to serve myself everyday information. AI’s just not helpful for my use case.

Overall, It’s time neutral. But it raises my blood pressure when it hallucinates, and dying of a stroke is undesirable for me.

I don’t know about you, but my results have been wrong or outdated at least a quarter of the time. If you flip two coins and both are heads, your information is outright useless. What’s the point in looking something up to maybe find the right answer? We’re entering a new dark age, and I hate it.

I noticed it a few months ago. It feels like a sudden, inorganic shift. Either all the good people have trickled off to a better basin, or someone or something has influenced Lemmy users

You’d be a fool to leave them!

Ninja something, muscle something, and a game that looked a bit like prototype. All incremental games. As you can tell, I wasn’t particularly invested in them. I don’t imagine you or your son begged in global chat for several minutes at a time with intentional spelling errors.

To get items in Roblox for a relative, I used to pretend to be a child and find users who would groom me. They were entirely unaware that I was quite probably older than they were. I saved hundreds of dollars on gifts, and it didn’t cost me all that much time. Roblox is not safe for kids

I forgot that he exists. I’d like to return to that state

Back camera, cruise control, no radio (data, fm, or am), no stupid fucking touchscreen interface, a dedicated phone holder, and I’m happy. My phone has plenty of sounds to play while I drive and I’ve literally never needed anything a car touchscreen has offered.

It’s official, god is woke

AI politicians might be the move after next.

Corporate personhood(you are here) ->
Corporation self advocates ->
Corporations run for office

I don’t like this future. I’d like to go back.
