When Chatgpt 1st shook the tech world, I said thanks and please. Then at some point I stopped. I've just wanted to enter my prompt very fast. Grok 3 and Claude 3.7 sonnet (extended thinking) have been my go-to llm but when in a hurry, I just use the Gemini voice assistant or Meta ai – I have the Messenger app.

Me too. If Chatgpt is like this, it won't be as controversial as Google's glue pizza.

Found your 5-month-old comment by searching zero dark thirty on Lemmy.

It showed that torture didn't work. Ammar didn't say crucial info after the waterboarding and during the 🐕 collar torture. Faraj didn't say crucial info after the waterboarding.

Torture is 👎.

I viewed 0 dark 30 twice minimum. Great direction and acting.

Jessica – Jennifer Ehle – seemed dumb when she met the al-Qaeda 👨‍⚕️. I think no Cia person is that dumb.

Lately I viewed Close encounters of the 3rd kind. Hasn't been my cup of tea. Boring plot.

But I've liked the time dilation aspect. The previously missing didn't age. Maybe their velocity was so high relative to Earth's velocity before landing on Earth. Maybe they were near a supermassive black hole. Maybe both?

It's a flick so maybe it was magic, not time dilation.

1 reason is that they want as much data as possible. They sell the user data. Or they use the user data to improve their targeted advertising. They want more ad clicks.

Re app versus site, many know how to block ads on browsers. With an app, the firm is hoping they can show you ads. Ads can be removed from some apps but the layperson doesn't know.

He can post here and on another platform (like Instagram) so the users won't think of switching.

Your Sync is still 👍 so I suggest staying.

My Voyager's been smooth. Also, I finally have the crosspost feature. Sync doesn't have it. I prefer Voyager's implementation of crosspost over the Lemmy site's implementation. By "Lemmy site" I mean going to lemmy.world on my 💻's browser.

Phones are like 💻 now. The year-to-year improvements are tiny. Some factors related to this –

At least for folks like me who sometimes read re chips, chip improvements are 👍. But big year-to-year improvements are probably hard. If it was easy, Apple or Qualcomm may have already designed a chip that was 2 or 3 times faster than the old 1.

So hard to have a clean implementation of under-screen cam and face recognition sensors. Hence, hole punch. Samsung fold has an under-screen front cam but the implemention wasn't clean and the pic quality is below average.

So hard to make a 🔋 that's 2 or 3 times better than the old 🔋. The tech world has been so hungry for a 🔋 innovation for a long time. There was optimism re graphene. Idk if it'll succeed in mass production.

Is this the word firms use to kinda hide their error, which was moving to the cloud?

A traditional soldering iron in my nation costs about PHP 450 (about USD 7.95). The portability, accelerometer, temp control, easy repair and the ability to solder while charging a phone are 👍, but USD 250 is so high.

Ublock origin – best ad blocker

Aside from Firefox + Ublock origin, I have Firefox focus. Its ad blocker has let thru disappointingly many ads.

Been using my Samsung a70 for almost 3 years and I knew re touch sensitivity only lately. I don't want scratches on my screen so I've always wanted a tempered-glass protector. I'm on my 3rd tempered glass.

I've noticed that more and more apps are requesting my location. 😑

Yes, it doesn't mean much if the fine is 0.0001% of Android's $.

I read that pairdrop.net was 👍 too.

Sponsorblock's been epic! Props to the coder and the contributors.

Why is Firefox getting involved in ads? 💵? To reduce their dependence on Google's payment for keeping Google as the default search engine?

Real estate investment scam. I wonder if Coffeezilla is working on it.

That Bill Burr clip was 👍. Dogpack has 👍 taste.

Exfat if you wanna use your usb drive on Macos or Linux.

I have Windows so I'm OK with Ntfs.

About 10 years ago, my usb drive was Fat32 by default. I changed it to Ntfs due to Fat32's 4-GB cap, which I've disliked. I'm still using Ntfs.
