Even non-American CSPs with assets in the US would required to cooperate with US regime and affiliated oligarch gangs.

Why not a $400 billion round?

No disrespect to sane Americans, but I feel like Mozilla needs to move its HQ out of the US. Keep developers, lawyers and representatives for government/public relations, but find leadership that can think different and come up with truly novel solutions.

US tech scene seems too vapid and corrupt (I am not American, but I have lived there and I have perspectives from multiple close friends working in the US tech industry) and fundamentally unsuited for the challenges of our time.

I see no posts when following the link in Voyager.

An actually useful feature in a new Android release!

Google and messaging app is whole story on its own.

Although MS isn’t that great with messaging either. There was MSN Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, various Skype services and finally MS Teams.

And feels like all of them were bloated and badly made.

“Microsoft 365 Copilot app (formerly Office)” (at Office.com?)

This is hilarious! Microsoft branding has always been borderline random. “Games for Windows Live” What kind of a brand name is that?

Why does Proton come off as a vapid American technology company that leverages privacy themed keywords in their PR copytext?

I say this as someone who has been using their email services for many years (I am a subscriber too).

I also don’t necessarily oppose a privacy focused cloud LLM from Proton. It’s more the tone of the blogpost, the misleading service comparison table under “Compare Lumo with other leading AI assistants” and where their priorities lie.

So this is what all this “kiss cam at Coldplay concert” is about. Pretty dull stuff.

One thing to note with facial recognition and security cameras is that you can’t put the genie back in the bottle.

Another thing is that there are legitimate uses for extensive surveillance (catching spies, assasins and collaborators when your country is being invaded). While this is a somewhat extreme example, there are legitimate use cases outside of war time too.

It’s up to us as voters to elect governments that do not abuse surveillance technology.

It’s a fun read if you’re into this type of thing.

I am not a pro with Linux, so people are welcome to correct me, but these would seem to be the viable options.

1. Try and find a Linux distro release that can run on the last Kernel 3.4 LTS release.
2. Search for a workaround/fix for the stuttering and/or reach out to the developers of the open source driver for the 3850.

I am not the author, just sharing.

Don’t think this an OS issue per se. Both timed and sunset/sunrise work great on OneUI and Nova Launcher.

I like Firefox on Android, you can run full uBlock and Dark Reader.

I would argue it’s not a good alternative and it’s fundamentally tied into the US oligarch system.

Brave got investment from the A16Z VC fund, they’ve been involved in multiple crypto pump and dump schemes (e.g. Axie Infinity).

I agree. It also means that you can spend $300-$400 on a smartphone and it does everything without lag and at a high quality level. What’s more, you can use it for 3-4 years.

There are some niche use cases like specialist smartphone photography and high demand gaming where you might need a flagship, but IMO a relatively small part of the market.

iOS has a design change, but otherwise there is nothing interesting. Smartphones have been around for a quarter of a century, both smartphone hardware and software are extremely mature.

Depends on the news site, in-demand US based articles get a full copy pretty quick. Somewhat more niche content can take time or it even never gets an archived copy.

I believe this sort of paranoia and delusional thinking are extremely common with schizophrenia.

The motifs in his word salad likely reflect his life experience.
