Salesforce is so fucking AI-pilled its insane. I hate having to use their shit-tier CRM.

The stone age = any time before 2005 apparently 🙄

I have to use Discord Canary for that but yeah. Flatpak all the way.

You can use the Aurora store for apps. You can also use Google Play for apps if you’re not super privacy minded. The beauty of GrapheneOS is that it doesn’t have to be a locked down security privacy-minded OS if you don’t want it to be. It can be just as functional as anything else with very few exceptions.

It just gives you the option to pursue security and privacy if you want.

I haven’t had issues with my banking app either but I don’t use the NFC wallet functionality and never have. I prefer to just tap my physical card.

It’s like everyone is eating the same meal, even though there’s other restaurants everywhere.

So fucking apt. Thanks for framing this the way you did. Really clears up my thoughts on how to discuss this with others.

Running GrapheneOS on a Pixel is incredibly easy. You don’t need to be technical at all to get it set up. The instructions and the process are simple. Get on it!

Developers all love to preen about code. They worry LLMs lower the “ceiling” for quality. Maybe. But they also raise the “floor”.

And this is how the human element of this industry dies. This dev is the last of a dying breed, the senior dev. He’s also loading more bullets into the gun that’s pointed at the heart of the role that got him to where he is in the first place.

You don’t get to become a junior dev if that role is occupied by AI and you don’t get to ever ascend to senior dev unless you start as a junior dev.

For as analytical this person seems to be, he has a massive blindspot related to the path he himself treaded to get where he is. He’s pulling the ladder up behind him and condemning the people on the path behind to finding another way or giving up entirely.

AI is brain rot. It’s actively and aggressively atrophying humanity’s ability to reason and problem solve.

Honestly, I’ve always thought the best use case for AI is moderating NSFL content online. No one should have to see that horrific shit.

Isnt it “actually Indians”?

Radicalized is a really good collection of shorter works. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radicalized_(Doctorow_book)

If you actually view the site, I think it’s pretty clear that its a well intentioned site with a genuine interest in providing travel tips and info to people. There’s no reason that site should have had its traffic obliterated.

I doubt a kid with tremors would be unable to get an exception made for them. I have tremors and in the mid 2000s my teachers were offering me test taking options like computers and other methods.

I always refused because I was stubborn.

1990’s Canada vibes.

Does anyone onow if there is a NOYB equivalent in North America?

You can click “Do not recommend channel” or “Not interested” on these recommendations to filter them out.

You might be interested in giving Nobara Linux a try. It has a built in automated NVIDIA driver manager that you can run on first boot.

Yeah, depending on its age an NVIDIA GPU can be a non-starter. That said, I had a 2060 when I first transitioned to Linux last year and had no issues.

There are clowns in every community and they are typically the loudest ones. Sorry Linux didn’t work out for you this time around. Hardware variables are hard to account for which if I had to bet, hardware weirdness is likely to be the root of your issue.

REAPER rules. I started on ProTools in 2010. Ditched it for Reaper in 2012 and never looked back. Best $60 I ever spent. I’ve gladly bought multiple licenses for my devices over the years.
