Have you considered the possibility that the majority of people are shitty and/or psychopaths?
Like most people will hear about companies using child slaves in impoverished countries and the biggest reaction is what, a boycott? Even that's a minority of people, most just keep on truckin' as if we don't live in a disgusting fucked up world.
When's the last time you heard about that Apple factory where people were regularly committing suicide? Why does Nestlé still exist despite widespread public knowledge of all the horrible shit they've pulled?
Did they say "Fuck Israelis"? You have to be either really thin-skinned to take offense to "Fuck insert country here", or you support the thing that's being criticized (which in this case is genocide).
Like, I'm Canadian, and when First Nations people say "Fuck Canada" because of the centuries of oppression and genocide they've faced, I don't take personal offense because I do not support the genocide of First Nations people. They're right, fuck Canada.
I didn't have a phone until I was 16 despite most of my peers getting one around 12/13. I didn't get bullied for not having a phone, in fact no one really made any comments on it other than an occasional "wow, I couldn't live without my phone!"
Granted, this was over ten years ago, and was probably the first generation of teenagers where cell phones were near-ubiquitous. I don't know if kids nowadays would get bullied just for not having a phone, but it would severely limit their social interactions. Riding your bike and knocking at your friends' doors randomly, or going to the mall and expecting you'll find some people you know there, these are from a bygone era.
You can run commands, so systemctl poweroff should work to turn off your computer (on Linux, not sure how KDE Connect works on Windows, but I'd assume there's an equivalent)
I'm just sitting here trying to figure out if I've ever eaten cereal in public.
I guess maybe in a hotel that offered "free continental breakfast"? If I did make a habit of eating cereal in public, I can't say I'd have a second thought before picking up my bowl and drinking the (oat) milk leftover. Do some people not do this? What do they do, throw it away? Scoop milk into their mouths with a spoon?
Life's too short to be self-conscious about how you eat cereal.
I type things in for her because she’s a really bad typist, but she tells me what to write…
At the risk of being that asshole who tells a parent how to raise their child based off a single post online, how do you expect her to become a better typist if you do it for her? She's 13, she's probably not gonna be that good at anything, she's at the age where she's supposed to be learning things (and that includes skills like typing).
Maybe I'm just projecting my own parents' shortcomings onto you, but they often just did things for me instead of helping me learn. I think I would be a better, more well-rounded human today if they had pushed me to be a bit more independent. I'm sure you're doing this out of love for your daughter, but I think you might not be doing her any favours by doing a portion of the work yourself. If she decides to pursue post-secondary education, are you still going to type her essays for her? What about if she gets a job that involves typing?
The media coverage of the current surge in right-wing attacks on the queer community is so fucking frustrating to me.
Is this really the level of analysis we're at after a year filled with protests against our rights and our legislators enacting laws and policies to appease the right-wing assholes?
"Right-wing extremist homophobes and transphobes could inspire violence against the 2SLGBTQIA+ community", like no fucking shit. You don't need "experts" from CSIS to tell you that, ask literally any queer person. These people are trying to convince people that all queers are paedophiles for fucks sake.
I saw an article the other day that said "anti-trans laws hurt the queer community". Wow, such journalism, I'm glad someone was there to tell me that fascist legislation drafted specifically to oppress trans people would hurt the queer community!
We're gonna start putting people in concentration camps and the news is just gonna be like "Putting trans people in gas chambers could inspire and encourage their deaths".
The most reliable way to remove unwanted system packages is using adb. I'm not familiar with this package though, so don't blame me if this causes issues on your phone :P
Really? Maybe it works better for some languages than others, but the majority of what I type on my phone (outside Lemmy) is in Frenglish and Heliboard handles it really well. Have you tried switching which one is set as the primary language? With the most recent update, I was having issues until I changed my primary language to French and the secondary to English.
This was what kept me on Microsoft's keyboard for ages, I've been using using this fork for the past month or two and it's by far the best FOSS keyboard for multilingual typing and autocorrect. Maybe not quite as polished as GBoard or SwiftKey but more than good enough.
I really suggest you give it a try! I admit setting up the multilingual support is slightly convoluted compared to proprietary options, though. This comment was typed on Heliboard, et je peux facilement changer en français aussi and even avoir des sentences that changent between les deux without beaucoup de difficulté.
You know what, you're completely right. Thanks for pointing that out, my brain just auto-completed that detail because of how prevalent "AI" is in the news these days.
Honestly though, if it's a more traditional chatbot that they had to program themselves, it's all the more embarrassing for Air Canada that they were trying to weasel themselves out of this.
A quick search led me to Passbolt which has multiple user support, native installs for both Debian and Fedora (you'll need to add their repo manually, though) and an Android app, so it seems to fit all your criteria.
Just curious, are there any specific reasons you wish to avoid docker?
I'm not a mod so I can't speak to their intentions for the community but IMO the size isn't there yet on Lemmy to separate topics to that extent. There's a politics-oriented community canadapolitics@lemmy.ca yet there's still plenty of threads about politics here.
We shouldn't be spreading what little community we have too thin.
I wonder how anyone in their right mind would propose the defense "we can't be held liable for what the chatbot we purposefully put on our website said". Did Air Canada's lawyers truly think this would fly?
If you don't want to be held to AI hallucinations, don't put an AI chatbot on your website, seems easy enough.

Seeing "Ubuntu" and "strong stance on Free, Libre, Open-Source Software software" in the same sentence is confusing to say the least.
