I feel like everyone is getting you wrong. I know what you mean. Your point is that nowadays meat consumption is already a taboo.

It almost appears like there's no chance Trump won't go to jail.

I was thinking of the cradle level in Goldeneye 64.

Where is the leash?

It still perfectly and visibly demonstrates the big point of criticism in AI: The tendencies the the training material inhibits.

Currently playing the original on a GBC emulator and it holds up incredibly well. Love the game!

Tolerance has its limit.

More like techno feudalism.

It’s “let’s believe that google and apple wouldn’t let this data be misused."

This is only valid for your specific voice commands. They're of course transmitted to and processed on their servers. That's something they could misuse, yes, but that's not what the article is about. The article is about whether your phone always listens to you, and there's no proof of it. People are repeating this claim all the time, but no one has come up with a proof. If you think about it also doesn't make any sense at all. This would cause so much data usage, people would have definitely noticed that at some point. The storage and processing requirements on Googles / Amazons part would also be ridiculous. But no matter how you look at it, it's up to someone who makes a claim to prove that it's true, that called the burden of proof and no one has managed to come up with a proof so far.

When money is tight you might use your phone for a year or two longer. 1000 Euro phones also don't help the matter.

It is essentially a no. Read the article.

a phone with a voice assistant enabled has to listen all the time

Yes, but this doesn't happen online. Your voice is not constantly being sent to Amazon or Google servers for activating the voice assistant. It's an offline feature that only reacts to the specific word. That's also the reason why you can't change the activation word.

Well isn't it great that Google is going to implement web DRM so I don't have to worry anymore about what ad blocking App is working.

Netflix, Reddit, Twitter, YouTube, Google...

The enshittification is going full steam ahead.

I dunno how you feel over there in europe.

EU is protecting our rights as customers while trying to implement laws to spy on all of us.

I don't even know what I'm supposed to feel.

I don't think it would be a direct competitor. Photopea is an ad-financed application that runs in the browser. I doubt that it's trying to cater to professionals but rather to average users who wouldn't buy Photoshop anyways. The goal of Abode is to provide a Photoshop alternative that can be purchased without a subscription, which is indeed intended to be used by professionals who don't want to or can't bear the monthly subscription costs anymore. See this part of the article:

“I noticed how expensive the subscription was and so many designers wrote to me and told me they could no longer afford to use Adobe for their work. I thought I might be able to help so I launched the crowdfunder to make us all a software suite that was truly ours.”

In the end he could possibly make more bank by contributing to Abode's products.

It's actually "Herz eines Drachen" ;)

"der von deener Nasenspitze tropft"

Truly lovely!

A few subreddits are still private. The mods of the most big ones that participated in the protests either complied and went back to normal business or were removed by the admins. They're currently searching for new mods in lots of subreddits:

Fair point.
