That may be exactly what I need when searching for some highly technical problem lol

Huh I didn’t notice that. That does sound a bit weird :/

I see your encourageMint and raise you

Commenting so you see your post one more time

DISINGENUOUS COUNTER-ARGUMENT WITH SLIGHT PERSONAL ATTACK

EDIT: TYPO

Uhhh…it’s the only [top] comment here. Are you seeing something I’m not? ( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°)

Soo… you’re implying that correlation does equal causation, right?

While I somewhat agree with your point about the upcoming wave of invasive AI, I don’t think adopting a digital hermit lifestyle is the best way through this. Think of it as the wave of PCs and smartphones: did a lot of people get negatively impacted by it? Sure, but did all (or even most) people who completely shunned the technology come out any better? Not necessarily. As this new technology became a central part of society in the past decades, the people who did the best were the ones who actively used it while simultaneously preventing themselves from…idk, developing a sort of mental dependence on it (though the degree to which most have succeeded in doing the latter is variable, the point still stays).

Now, is the upcoming AI wave the same as the smartphone wave? Well, not really. But are our options of tackling it the same? I’d say, basically yes. And that’s my point: it’s better to make use of this technology in ways that are less likely to backfire. Since the premise of your captology argument is that more invasive AI will be better in convincing us to buy products, this is, I’d argue, one of the perfect spots for FOSS alternatives. What if we do end up becoming addicted to some new AI app(s) that we know is (/are) manipulative? Look for alternatives not controlled by a corporation. It’s not the perfect option, but in my opinion it’s certainly better than completely boycotting the technology.

I thought that’s the is/am/are (I forgot the term for these)

Sheesh! I mean, I did get a token around 100k when I signed up, but they definitely need a better way of screening if it takes an average user more than a year to get through the screening :/

Yeah if they had a way of trivially adding the bridges to any other matrix client (on android, that is), that’d make things super convenient.

Making the work easier for casual folks is all I’m in for in the case of Beeper. I mean, I could manually set everything up, but I’d rather support methods that make it easier for everyone else to access the fediverse more easily.

I’ve been waiting for almost a month now, and I’ve seen a few people complaining how they’re in waiting list since multiple months (recent ones, i.e. after they announced lesser waiting time)

You got access to Beeper? Lucky bastard

4 might be pushing it, it’s still just GDDR7

Been using it for about a month now, and I quite like the repertoire or keys it gives. The only feature I personally find missing here is a clipboard history (it has its own buffer for copying text as far as I can tell, but users can only copy and paste through it, not see its contents)

It’s a lot like beehaw, if that helps clear things

‘Vader’ does mean father in Dutch, sooooo…
