  • Gboard wouldn't need to take screenshots. It can see what you're typing as you're typing it. As far as what your contacts are saying, if they're using Gboard, it's the same for them. And even if Google doesn't admit it, we all know they're correlating every single data point about people they can get, which includes who talks to who. I wouldn't be surprised if they know you're talking to a particular person and tailors your suggestions to fit the conversation. This is an even stronger possibility if you're using one of Google's messaging apps.

  • This always bugged me a little, but when I saw how much support the mobile Animal Crossing game got, it really made me sad. They poured money and development resources into that game, but left the full price, multi million seller behind after a year, and it still lacks many features of its predecessors. I love the game and still play it off and on, but damn. It could have really been the pinnacle of the series.

  • Unless I kissed something, those people he fired are still fired. The people he deported are still deported. What does my belief, or lack thereof, accomplish? "Don't believe him," might be good advice for the people tasked with announcing or carrying out his illegal orders, but those orders are still real and are still happening. If those people don't believe him and refuse to carry out those orders, then we're getting somewhere. But you and me and everyone else in this thread? I don't see how our beliefs are going to counter the damage being done.

  • I wasn't able to disable Copilot in Office without threatening to cancel via my account management page. It's only then that they give you the option to fall back to the originally priced plan that specifically doesn't include Copilot. And even after that, Copilot apparently won't be removed from my locally installed copies of the Office apps until my plan renewal date in April! I'm pretty sure I'm gonna use the time to transition all my documents to LibreOffice and fully cancel my MS Office plan before it renews.

  • I'm one of like 5 people on the planet who still uses his minidisc player. I've bought some of the blank minidiscs Sony was still making. Seeing them finally end production hurts. I have a bunch of minidiscs already, but I feel like I should stock up before prices go nuts.

  • Several years ago, they were bought by Kape (formerly Crossrider), which is a company that started off making malware (browser toolbars that bundled unwanted software and other advertising software). I jumped from PIA to Proton once I found out. I'm paying more, but I can trust Proton more. They're not a malware company, after all.
