This reminded me of the Jar Jar Binks is a Sith lord theory

"once you're paired up, you're going to delete your account"
woah woah woah, I never said that.

YouTube recommended this video, and based on the thumbnail alone it looked like sensationalist garbage. I didn't watch it. I think it's because i watched a single video about "de-googling" and now the algorithm dives straight into the rage-bait deep-end of that topic.

Governments told kids they shouldn't use it. So it naturally became more popular.

I feel like the type of person reading your comment on Lemmy isn't the type of person that stays on a platform after it pulls shit they don't agree with.

Zerfallen , 1 month ago to Technology in People want 'dumbphones'. Will companies make them?

It's great, but a bit too small and thick (...let me just stop you there), and the design is just not really modern or elegant. I didn't have problems typing on it, personally. But it's either the Jelly Star, at 3", or you basically jump straight up to 6" minimum.

Zerfallen , 1 month ago to Technology in We have to stop ignoring AI’s hallucination problem

It would be a great comment if it represented reality, but as an analogy it's completely off.

LLM-based AI represents functionality that nothing other than the human mind and extensive research or singular expertise can replicate. There is no already existing 'second, better calculator' that has the same breadth of capabilities, particularly in areas involving language.

If you're only using it as a calculator (which was never the strength of an LLM in the first place), for problems you could already solve with a calculator because you understand what is required, then uh... yeah i mean use a calculator, that is the appropriate tool.

If this is about the recent AI demos, I'm not worried at all. Seemed completely artificial, and if anything, patronisingly expressive. I guess you could instruct it to tone it down, but even so, i think you're either a person that thanks the chatbot, or you're not (no judgement).

Zerfallen , 4 months ago to Technology in How Google is killing independent sites like ours

I moved from Google Search to Kagi, and I really like it. It's a bit expensive though the experience is really nice, and you know where you stand with them as a customer, regarding their priorities/motivations.

Zerfallen , 4 months ago to Technology in Sustaining Proton’s mission over time | Proton

I am not asking for a replacement to Google Drive, since that's clear, I'm asking for a replacement to Google Photos, which means I'm referring to the functionality that makes Google Photos a separate product to Google Drive (aka, the fancy AI features, automatic image compression, automatic sorting, albums, search, etc).

I don't know if it goes against Proton's philosophy, that's kind of besides the point. I'm just saying that for me to move from Google's suite, as I would like to, this would be a blocker for me with Proton. It's fine if Proton doesn't want to address that market, it just means I personally would find it difficult to make the switch (and likely wouldn't) even though I like a lot of what Proton is doing.

I'm sure it can work well for many others, so thanks for the recommendation, but personally I'm not interested in self hosting.

All the things that make Google Photos a separate product to Google Drive... that's what I'm talking about.

I hope they might consider a Proton Photos, since Google Photos really holds me to Google Drive. And Proton AI for working with documents on Proton Drive.
