What if it goes the way of facebook, and one day you realize that it’s just you in a virtual space filled with bots.
- Comment on Who the fuck needs an x axis anyway 1 week ago:
For some reason, that doesn’t look like a GPT-generated graph, which means… sadly… that someone had to make that thing… and somebody had to approve it.

Sounds like a philosophical question.
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 4 weeks ago:
IIRC, I had a PC (since sold) that had secure boot permanently enabled from the factory. That is, in spirit, a PC with a “locked bootloader”, but you might not even notice because many Linux distros have that Microsoft-blessed Linux loading shim… but it is still Microsoft inserting themselves between you and your hardware; they could decide in the next few years they no longer “support” Linux, hypothetically.

It was not immediately obvious from the image (though you might see the starfish for scale), but these things are huge!
- Comment on Environmental Damage 4 weeks ago:
It makes you wonder if they have a whole bunch of training data in this style, or if it is the mathematical average of all cartoon styles mashed together.

Are you suggesting I should have asked it to reprocess the image, or ask it to try again?

- Comment on Apple Envy 4 weeks ago:
To be fair, unlockable bootloaders seem a bit exceptional on the Android side too…
- Comment on NOTICE: 4 weeks ago:
At first, I thought this was a “flash forward” reference.
- Comment on Apple Envy 4 weeks ago:
I would agree insomuch as Google’s privacy issues are better known.
Nonetheless, we are comparing two jail cells. One has a finger-puzzle that opens the cell-doors than the secure jail (and an obvious surveillance camera), and the other one is securely locked with a less-obvious/hidden camera (iphone backups)… and the issue at hand is they want to remove the finger-puzzle because the captives keep opening it to let baddies join them.
- Comment on Apple Envy 4 weeks ago:
Splitting detected.
Are we seriously going to pretend that a single person can be wholly evil? Much less a company of 200k people.
Even if Google takes this huge step of requiring their blessing for every Android developer (which Apple has ALWAYS had on their side), they will still be better (by my estimation) along the freedom dimension than Apple. Maybe too far removed for my involvement, but better nonetheless. For example, one interesting metric may be the number of useful open source projects they publish.

Noticably? I imagine their skin imperfections would be twice as large… or maybe √2 as large?
