  • Considering they’re being actively and without denial used to fuck us over, yes. I’m not going to play the censorship card. The US is now no better than Russia, there’s no reason we should treat them better. US platforms are now literally an offensive weapon, Musk already started riots over fake news and is directly and openly meddling in our politics. This shit needs to stop. Just like we blocked RT news, this needs to go.

    It’s in the same vein like Trump threatening military action against Greenland. Trump is literally committing extortion under the treat of war. The US is an actively hostile nation that targets everyone including their own allies. Like what the actual fuck? How did we get here? We need to decouple from the US as soon as possible. I’d go as far as compare the US to a ravid animal on the international stage, I’m absolutely mortified by what’s going on.




  • I writhe heavily every time I see google spit out half true AI answers. Messed me up a few times when it just blindly combined 2 unrelated paragraphs together as one fact. What is the point, if I have to read the page anyways to confirm the validity?

    It was the final straw that made me never use Google again. I mean come on, you search for something and 100% of the screen is now just adds or half true AI garbage.

    AI art has also largely ruined wallpaper apps and sites. There’s this uncanny look most AI images share and it makes my skin crawl. Then we have the abominations that are AI avatars and emojis…

    OH! Can’t forget AI customer support! What a steaming pile of shit! It barely works and lies! Once I wanted to pick up an order my self, because it was taking WAY too long, and the little shit lied about contacting the restaurant! Not to mention the refund policy is now effectively whatever the AI spits out today. Needless to say, we now always demand an actual human.

    Honestly, besides apps that are centered around AI and it’s abilities, any other place where it has been forced into has beed objectively worse for me.














  • My phone NEVER leaves my side, that’s not a big issue. And thankfully my wallet is 99% obsolete, as most of the cards are already in my phone, and the few that aren’t fit in my flip case. Keys are another story, fuck keys! Bulky loud ass bullshit! I’d love a keychain that could live in my phone or have the format of a card.

    My Renault car has a pretty neat card that auto locks and unlocks the car. I just keep it in my breast pocket (or backpack in the summer) and forget about it.

    After being forced to use an iMac in collage, I’ll admit it’s fine and definitely better than windows. But it’s still annoying. I wouldn’t call not being able to use the F key row, just because I dare to use a non apple keyboard a “working computer”, just as a most in my face example, there’s much more. It works and it does so looking pretty, as long as you have literally zero personal preferences.
