I think my philosophy when making software is that it should work for people with zero money or no bank account / credit card.

I know it's not a popular mindset to be in since money and profit is everything in the tech world.

I think it comes from growing up as a kid with no disposable income or access to anything but my shitty computer.

I'd rather support people with almost nothing than people with latest and greatest tech gizmos and spare cash for subscription services. 😅

It's hard to be invested in the moral superiority of shooter game protagonists as they commit mass murder on "the bad guys". Like, sure this "devil rider boss" had done some crime, but my "protagonist" character has killed thousands of people compared to robbing a bank or whatever tf the bad guys do.

ArXiv is going to ban researchers for a year if they are caught submitting AI slop. ArXiv told us it's a one strike rule: do it once, you're out.

I would like to have a new electric car but the whole data collection part is the main thing keeping me away from it.

So I liked this article quite a lot. Forgot where I found it, likely here somewhere on the fediverse...

Without control of your food, you have no leverage. Period.

You can't strike if you can't feed your family.

You can't protest if you're spending all your waking hours finding enough to eat.

You can't build an alternative economy if you're dependent on the existing one for the most basic requirement of biological existence.

Low key might be following the three laws of robotics over here (other than following orders 😎👉👉)

It's pretty scifi that I can see a concert for a world renowned digital pop star. We're honestly close enough to making her "self aware" enough to play back the events of William Gibson's Idoru.

Looks like Chromebook is being replaced with something called "Googlebook" and it is full-scale Microsoft-style Surveillance PC. Apparently anytime you "wiggle your cursor" anything that is underneath the cursor gets fed into Google's surveillance AI blog.google/products-and-platf

One of these things that makes me consider detecting the platform from my webserver and blocking it entirely because the probability of whatever I wrote becoming an LLM input is too high

I swear code would be easier to navigate as a 4d graph of some sort. (or 3.5d?)

I don't really drink alcohol anymore so when I go clubbing I order water bottles to stay hydrated. For some reason it's a 50/50 split on whether the bartender will actually charge me for it and the inconsistency is painful to navigate. 🤪

Redditors have caught Google secretly updating its Chrome terms of service to remove a line that guaranteed that local AI models won't send data to Google servers.

That's now gone, meaning your local AI sends data to Google, so it's not that local.

Comminity is when one person assembles the mesh node hardware, another 3d prints a mount, and a third gives it a high enough mounting point to cover a region

Once again I prove to myself I am smarter than an LLM. 🤷 I kinda wish they were smarter so I wouldn't need to be. 🤪
