Of course it seems wrong when you say it like that.

They’ll be wearing stylish pool noodles on the tusks to minimize furniture and gonad damage.

Or we create them with softer tusks. Maybe that’s better, the. They’ll also be worthless to poachers.

Those are closer to horse-sized, but it’s a good start.

I’ve said this a million times before, but if we’re playing gods anyway, can’t we make them dog sized also?

I would totally get one or maybe two.

This is good news for bot farms working to sow division.

Well, if they didn’t care about being flooded with machine generated trash, they wouldn’t have set the limit to books you can self publish down to a mere three per day.

Here’s a basically fully automated service where you can generate a shitty book for $200. You can even have it printed as a paperback for more useless waste or have it AI narrated as a shitty audiobook.

I hate everything about it.

This can only mean that Google is about to axe a product that people like and instead introduce a new chat app.

I assume by “fail” you mean “didn’t succeed in preventing California from building an efficient high-speed rail system”, right?

You probably underestimate the amount of effort Apple puts into not doing this, to maintain user privacy, and for a good while their services have suffered for it.

As an example I’d highlight the year in review feature between Apple Music and Spotify. “Replay” is significantly worse than “Wrapped” and I believe the difference is data handling is the key differentiator. However, there are some advances in balancing privacy 2ith utility, as highlighted in this post from Apple ML research: https://machinelearning.apple.com/research/scenes-differential-privacy

Stupid headlines like this, are making us collectively dumber.

The era of Google Now and Inbox was a golden era.

Going back to regular Gmail from Inbox was what finally broke my faith in Google and I was a proper fanboy too.

I propose we call this practice “unicorning”.

I was just thinking the exact same thing. Things seems to have accelerated lately, but I don’t know if this is something regular users even notice or care about and it just feels significant to us because of the recent twitter and reddit idiocy.

I am super excited about all the attention the fediverse is getting. There are still a ton issues to be solved here, but decentralization feels like the next evolutionary step of the web.

One of the issues is “who’s gonna pay for it”? And I think the answer is something like “most users are”, in the sense that you’d pay your local instance, the same way you used to pay for newsgroups. Thus keeping it out of the hands of venture capitalists, hedge funds and billionaires in general, because hopefully we’ve learned that that’s a bad thing.

It’s an actual webapp, so no, it probably won’t unless they convert the codebase to react native.

I’ve only found a few things that I’m missing from a native experience and I’m sure it can be fixed.

Most annoyingly is the “scroll-to-top” by double tapping the top of the screen doesn’t work.

Otherwise I think in terms of smoothness it’s better than Mlem.

Well, if the guy really wants to be Elon and follow the example from the Twitter, then shutting down moderation to let the racism, homophobia and science denial run rampant is all part of the genius plan.
