Why would advances in AI make autocorrect worse? I don't use it because it sucks, but it's always been like that.

Holy shit, it does. Good catch.

Per Wikipedia:

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

I don't know why you went with something that individual internet neckbeards do.

A self-replicating swarm of fighter drones would be far more devastating than almost all of the weapons we see in the Star Trek universe. You could send a few off to some random uninhabited solar system to suck it dry and come back with literally trillions of small unmanned drones capable of overwhelming entire civilizations with ease. Of course, there's always the threat of them going rogue or being taken over by someone else.

What if your bookmarks are end to end encrypted?

Experience-based vendor lock-in while getting bait'n'switched with increasing amounts of ads is not a consumer choice. To assert otherwise is extremely ignorant of the power dynamics between individual consumers and the duopoly that we have in the phone market.

I do block ads on the DNS level. You're probably running a modded version of the client without realizing it.

At this point, the play store has such a monopoly that they can do whatever the fuck they want. That's why there are so many ads.

In my opinion, software that can be considered required for hardware that you've paid for to work (OS/system level apps) should not be allowed to have ads by law. It's also a double infraction when they bait'n'switch you by slowly rolling out more and more ads on a phone you already bought.

That's a fair point. It's so strange that it does that, especially when the ad is functionally identical to a normal piece of content for that medium.

The terminology isn't really logical, but it does exist.

America: United States of America

North America: A continent

South America: The continent right below North America

The Americas: Both North and South America

Oh okay, that's good. So if you could show that you were trying to block it, you'd be safe.

Oh, that makes sense. Interesting that it wouldn't tell you what happened and prompt you to switch sellers.

I don't know what the Hexbears would have to gain from attacking lemm.ee. It's one of the mainstream instances that hasn't defederated from Hexbear, so there also wouldn't be anything to retaliate against unless I'm missing some news.

How is that not extremely problematic? What stops someone from using Tor and a bunch of dummy accounts to send CSAM to someone else and get them arrested?

I didn't like Apple's idea of scanning private images for such imagery, but I think it would be a fantastic technology to use for social media. If they open sourced it, it could help Lemmy a lot.

You're probably right from what we saw with Trump. I meant more that you could stop that specific 2024 plan by voting.

How the fuck is that even legal?

I suppose he does. Idk why my original comment got downvoted so much, I was just trying to be funny by pointing out a grammatical error in a message about correcting someone else's spelling and grammar.

Why?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you need a comma before the beginning of the quote?

I wrote under it, "Yes, you do."
