Counterpoint: sometimes it's difficult to tell if something is surveilling you, especially for laypersons.

Good news! Has the time finally come for us to buy a Dacia Sandero?

Nobody can stop you from spending your money as you see fit, 24/7/365, from anywhere, to anywhere, instantly, and for free.

Except it's not.

Lemmy in general hates Windows.

Where I live, I consider nothing I do on my phone private at all, and I have to act accordingly. I would be in breach of Chinese law were I to do the same in China.

both technologies are interesting

AI has uses that aren't about covering your tracks or evading law enforcement.
Edit: bring on the downvotes, cryptobros.

I am in full agreement with your view on privacy, but I don't think that cryptocurrency is a solution. People far more eloquent than I have already fully described why elsewhere, so I'd just like to thank you for your civil response.

A Microsoft representative (?) opened an issue for Explorer Patcher:

Hi Team,

This is to let you know that Win10 taskbar code is removed. And if use continue to use ExplorePatcheron Windows GE Build, they will see a crash. You only need to adjust the setup exe name to get around the block in your new version. We will continue to block ANY version that crashes Explorer.

Please let me know if you have any question.

Thanks
Michelle

Makes sense to me.

Is there a privacy conscious keyboard that offers a floating mode like Swiftkey does? I'd love to switch.
