Imagine doing an antitrust violation when you don’t even have the market clout for a payoff in the first place.

I forgot about that angle. That should be an amusing lawsuit. Hopefully it takes another few bi££ion from his $orry a$$.

Tizen in the corner: “Pick me, pick me 🥺”

dinckelman ,

Even Samsung have practically given up on Tizen. In smartwatches, the plug has been pulled, and for smart TVs, it’s not updated anymore, because they probably realized that it’s a waste of effort

balder1991 ,

Is that even a battle worth fighting at this point?

I think they all know the safest option is to leverage Android’s ecosystem and add your own extras to it. Starting from scratch is like 90% chance of wasting lots of money and have no profit at all.

That’s why these massive projects aren’t usually started by companies, but by passionate individuals or orgs. They require a different incentive than the next quarter earnings.

dinckelman ,

Starting from scratch is a worthwhile investment, if you can carry it to completion. Samsung never do this, so it was a waste of time from the start. Admittedly, their Tizen watches were leaps ahead in performance, compared to the Android alternatives, but they completely gave up on attempting to improve any of them

atocci ,

What do their TVs run on now if they aren’t updating Tizen anymore?

dinckelman ,

The same shit, just not updated

Watching people struggle to choose between the tesla t and the apple apple would be so satisfying for me.

What are they going to use instead? Windows, which also has an OpenAI partnership? Android, which had Gemini and probably even worse privacy?

Or is the whole company switching to Linux and Linux mobile

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Switching to Linux Mobile would be a welcome change, imagine them heading a FOSS Linux distro to run on phones

Alphane_Moon ,
@Alphane_Moon@lemmy.world avatar

Not going to happen. Elmo is too self-centered to develop a phone in the spirit of FOSS. And then there are reputational issues to consider; many would be opposed to working for the benefit of Elmo.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Yeah that’s probably true

someguy3 ,

Don’t think it’s about privacy. It’s about that he wants money from openai because he tried to buy them out or something, or was involved a long time ago, or tried to get involved, or whatever, but he thinks he should have a big payday from it now that its stock is up.

locuester ,

He was a founding partner.

halcyoncmdr ,
@halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world avatar

That left. And far as I remember it wasn’t a situation of being pushed out, he left on his own. Probably because he disagreed with everyone else about something.

Ironically with all the hubbub about Sam Altman, it seems like he somehow might have not been the clear worst of the bunch. Somehow.

locuester ,

Yep

And what about Gemini and Copilot?

Elon Musk making his team to roll out XOS, a Linux distro with Grok integration…

Etterra ,

I wish more people would point out how we totally stole the word grackity thinks it makes him sound smart and well read. Also like he’s from the '70s lol

I wasn’t born until halfway through the 80s and know exactly where the word is from…but my reading habits tend toward that type of sci-fi, so I’m probably an outlier…

StaySquared ,

lol yeah I’m going to stick to Apple… As long as Apple cares about security, I’ll continue to use their products. IDGAF about Tesla or X, quite frankly.

elgordino ,

He called the software integration between the two companies “an unacceptable security violation,” and said Apple has “no clue what’s actually going on.”

I’d be very surprised if corporates wouldn’t just be able to disable it in MDM for their worker’s phones. Not sure it’s Apple who has ‘no clue’ here.

thebeardedpotato ,

Yep, this seems like the exact kind of thing companies would enforce with MDM.

I know one of my previous companies would enforce certain settings were changed if you wanted to install the MDM profile on a BYOD phone (like minimum 8 digit PIN), so requiring you to opt out of OpenAI Siri integration seems like a policy MDMs would offer.

(Though I would never install a company’s MDM profile on my personal phone lol - if they want me to be accessible and have work apps, they can provide a separate work phone)

Dju ,

Hopefully Apple counter-threatens with Xitter ban from their devices

Lucidlethargy ,

That would actually be a figurative nail in the coffin for X. Apple idiots love X.
