Entire tech industry does this over and over again. The only way to stop dancing along is to switch to Linux instead of praying to Microsoft or Apple corporations.

I think its not just kids anymore, it’s adults too. Everyone is glued to their screens these days. But kids are more vulnerable to influences from “social” media and don’t have any defences to the psychological warfare going on. Of course they feel like shit.

Don’t think so. Havent you met kids feeling shit because of social media? It’s everywhere.

Yeah, for me I don’t use any Google apps except Maps, but they are still on my phone, and can’t be removed.

It’s sad that all of us are carrying around all these apps that we didn’t choose, and that we don’t want or use.

Makes me again consider cyanogenmod… But had some issues without the Google shit on it.

The need for something like this will only grow, as more people realize the damage it’s doing.

More like the brick disables your ability to use or see any disturbing apps, and you can’t even re-enable it without the brick.

The majority of 25 year olds I know would not mind being with an 18 year old. Why pretend it’s not like that?

Calling the 18 year olds children is just trying to make it sound like it wouldnt matter of they are 14 or 18. It matters very much to any normal person.

If you don’t believe me, ask any 18 year old girl who wears tight clothes, what age are the guys looking at her body when she walks around? And then you don’t have to trust me.

It’s biology, you can’t change that with political correctness…

It’s horrible for the body. Don’t understand why people eat it, and on white bread sandwiches!!

May as well sign up for fat camp discounts.

Healthy breakfast is tea, oatmeal porridge, greek yoghurt, some fruits, eggs, vegetables. If you are going to eat bread, pick ones with dark bread and fibers.

The fuk? Please help me complete this insane captcha (lemmy.world)

Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck… ??? What’s the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn’t? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what’s the blue thing? I answer and it refreshes with the same icons in different places. I AM HUMAN!

We need laws against AI torturing people with this shit. Now it’s just playing with us.

@1984@lemmy.today avatar

It’s frankly ridiculous. Ai is useful but the only company that deserves to get this much gains on the stock market is possibly Nvidia, because they make actual sales of actual hardware.

Everyone else puts out AI that is much worse than open gpt with tons of marketing to try and make up for it.

There is aws summit now in a couple of days where I live and there was more AI breakout sessions than you can shake a stick at. It’s definently overhyped.

I actually say no to hiring more devs because it takes like a year to get someone up to speed, with lots of effort and time invested from the team.

I’m not a manager, I’m one of the devs. Don’t want more people because of the burden of training them.

Just 30 mins to an hour. It’s really nice to be able to drop it so easily. It has very little addiction feeling, and it’s easy enough to just open the app and go through what’s new and then close it.

Judging by how things are going, what we write will be sucked up by AI and then sold back to us as a service to pay for later.

Humans creating content for free to be sold by corporations in the future, pretty much.

Kagi… It’s so good you forget Google.

And what do you mean “even mozilla”… There are money deals between these Google and mozilla. Google pays mozilla a lot of money to set Google as default search.

I agree. I would recommend duckduckgo for a free search engine.

I don’t feel the need to tell every stranger my life story. :)

Nope. Just want to say that there are many people who don’t have the need to put on a big show about themselves. It’s fine to just exist without broadcasting it to the world.

How Google ranks content is a black box: websites depend on search traffic to survive, and many will go to great lengths — and great expense — to beat out the competition and rise to the top of results. Better ranking means more website visits, which means more money. As a result, website operators hang on to every word Google publishes and each social media post by employees working on search. Their word is taken as gospel, which, in turn, trickles down to everyone using Google to find things.

This is the problem, and also why all centralized search engines will be tempted to go down the route of Google.

What is the solution? Maybe a decentralized open source index. But those exists and are not as good as Kagi. It seems there will always be a need for companies to pay skilled employees to create a good search experience. Just having the index is not enough.

Google's "Manifest V2" Chrome extension phaseout next month is expected to impact the original uBlock Origin extension, which still uses the V2 framework and has 37 million users (www.theregister.com)

The new MV3 architecture reflects Google’s avowed desire to make browser extensions more performant, private, and secure. But the internet giant’s attempt to do so has been bitterly contested by makers of privacy-protecting and content-blocking extensions, who have argued that the Chocolate Factory’s new software...

Samsung phones are full of adware and shit. No accident they are “chosen” as top phones by reviewing websites.

Consumers don’t get the best phones in those reviews. They are paid for.
