I agree that it’s probably a sensational article. No matter what the numbers actually are - it’s too early to draw a line to Trumps policy decisions.

It’s cherry picking, but I’ll point out the 15% increase in the cost of eggs due to Avian flu. I mean, if we blamed Biden for inflation over the last several years then we can place this at Trump’s door step surely?

In any case, I look forward to seeing the MAGA-splaining in the coming months.

Yeah.

I mean I didn’t buy $15 in bitcoin 15 years ago (have never bought any, never will), and I’m not obsessed about it.

Is it really any different for this guy?

As someone who’s out of the loop may I ask what the story is?

What I’m getting is that he’s a wealthy has been who has some unmedicated mental health problems which manifest in these spectacular public brain farts.

Is that all there is to it or is there some explanation for the antisemitism?

That doesn’t mean that reprisals are a realistic possibility.

People manage all sorts of risks every day.

It’s not a question of whether some infinitesimal risk exists, it’s a question of whether removing names is an appropriate mitigation.

Obviously you think that it is, but I think most people value transparency and accountability. The elephant in the room here is that anonymity would hypothetically allow service members to act with impunity.

I’m sure you can see the risks in having service members escort detainees with no accountability for their actions.

Is this a realistic possibility?

Why would a cartel kick that hornets nest?

The top level comment says it’s not legal.

The comment you replied to is saying that’s not true, and that hyperbole doesn’t help.

Your comment says that legality is not morality.

Settle down, take a deep breath, and think about what you’re saying.

I dislike it.

Pretty sure my instance blocks it.

I believe it’s counter productive and stifles engagement.

Yeah. They waited till sales had dropped off then pulled it.

I don’t necessarily dislike “AI” but I reserve the right to be derisive about inappropriate use, which seems to be pretty much every use.

Using AI to find pertoglyphs in Peru was cool. Reviewing medical scans is pretty great. Everything else is shit.

If it doesn’t work then quick cheap and easy I’d pointless.

I’ll make you dinner every night for free but one night a week it will make you ill. Maybe a little maybe a lot.

Yeah.

I’m sure that shopify is a shitty company, but this doesn’t strike me as any more shitty than any other retailer.

I mean, you can’t have your staff telling people to reduce the amount of plastic they buy.

That’s only true in a general sense. Regardless a key component of “doing science” is to reproduce the results of others.

You raise a good point.

I’m much the same in that I just refuse to watch anything with ads. They really are dystopian and weird.

I also get that same feeling when I see someone just grinding through youtube ads, but people that do that just don’t seem to have any awareness of the interaction - it’s just part of the show.

The weirdest of all is when people (usually brave browser enthusiasts?) try to claim that “some” ads are actually a good thing because it makes them aware of some product they actually desire which they wouldn’t have been aware of otherwise. I’ll take blissful ignorance thanks.

So yes, I can imagine people doing this stuff without really thinking about it.

Because I’m not concerned that the google hardware constitutes a security risk.

It’s trivial to monitor packets a device is sending over the network, the Graphene team would absolutely be on top of this.

Yeah this is me. It’s been just perfect for many years now.

There’s just no way I’m ever going to do this.

Honestly, I’d rather go forage for twigs and berries than interact with ads.

Naming things is complicated.

It’s not really a case where some organisation has the authority to name something. Rather people just call something a name, and organisations adopt that name.

That’s not how science & research works.

We test the things we think we know and publish our findings.

Nah. If it’s a choice between GrapheneOS on a pixel or an iPhone I’d take my chances with the pixel.

It would be pretty easy to detect if there was unexpected traffic with any google services.

You do you but IMO Graphene is your best chance in 2025.

On a phone ?
