CEO keeps job after profit hungry investors tried to remove him because he didnt milk IP for profits. maybe i like this ceo.

i hate this admonistration, hate the app but these are wprk phones. what are people expecting here?

oh if i wasnt clear, its bad, its stupid, its a fucking mess but you cant unustall work apps from your work phone. congressneeds to step in

100% of tiktok is slop. ai or non-ai

i like to point out that companies are using ai to be a boogeyman to distract you. take every article tou read and remove ai from the text or replace it with automation/algorithm.

even the jobs. 5 years ago it was "company lays off 10000 employees" response was "fuck management" -- today they are doing the same thing but add "because ai" and everyone now says "fuck ai".

even if cloudfare was 100% secure and orivate they are trying to be the trunk of the web. its a single point of failure

holy fuck. this is horrible. google is an Advertising company. why would you want an ad company listening to all your conversations?

let me soapbox a bit.. AI is not the problem. i honestly think companies use the term AI so thats all you focus on. its a tool.

"google is going to ambiently track your conversations".

everything is going to shit and most comments on lemmy are about ai. ai is like trump putting his name on the kenedy center. its a distraction. they created a boogey man for you to focus on.

focus on palantir, meta's age bill, flock, tech companies (ai or not) capturing all your data.

epic had always made okder versions available. takes years to make some games. upgrading to a full new version is very risky. you finish the game in the major version you started with.

i thought kde connect worked very well

encryption. i dont know anything about the launcher but anything requiring encryption pops it up for me.

what in the world are you playing? maybe broaden your horizons? i know loot boxes exist but to think it the majority is weird. Alan Wake, Metro, Satisfactory, Life is Strange, Planet Crafter, Baldurs Gate 3, Soul Mask, A Fisherman's Tale, Into the Radius, and Outbound are just a few games i have played recently and they dont treat me like a spread sheet.

This blog is on the malwarebytes website. Malwarebytes says in thr post thst its not fair to call this spyware. This was brought up on the windows side as well.

What is really going on: claude desktop is installing the hooks for the claude browser extension. If you install the browser extension, claude desktop can control the browser. This is the intended behavior so you can have an agent do something like "in the morning, access these three sites, pull down the data and create a newsletter for me" or "please check flight costs throughout the day on these sites" or whatever you want to access the browser for.

This is the whole reason you install claude desktop, to automate your computer.

the person who wrote the article is... not a great thinker but you get some good answers from Cerf, so worth a read.

The first mistake the author makes is thst Tim Berners-Lee is not one of the fathers of the internet but of the world wide web. it runs on the application layet of the internet and came decades later.

The second mistake is corrected by Cerf. the difference between a discovery and an invention.

this is a decent read. theres honest criticism and not a "m$ sux lol" rant. a someone who can agnostically enjpy tech history, i would like to see how this plays out.

i honestly thought amazon went electric everywhere but good for him

i am so tired my glasses are starting to fail me and i read:

Major Zohran Mamdani is going to live (short i) on twitch in new streaming series.

so i pictured a netflix show where he lives on twitch 24/7 in a big brother type living room.

they arent laying off humans because of ai

they arent laying off humans bevause of ai

they have been laying off people in cycles for over 40 years

this last uear they tell investors its because of ai and investors are happy.

i just learned that gitlab is publicly traded on the nasdaq.

no one is getting laid off by ai. its the firing cycle whovh has been going on for decades but now they get to say its ai and watch investors salivate.

because the NSA doesnt give a fuck about hegseth's tantrums. but anthropic is sniffing glue if it thinks the nsa isnt spying on americans.

I once again return to my soap box. The psu is the most important part of your computer build. So many people build computers and say "power is power" but so many crashes and it seems even fires (this one ia new to me) can be related to bad power management. Spend the money on the good psu.
