I’m sure that’s a comfort to the families of the two kids who died and the two adults who died.
Make sure to tell them that everything will be fine now across the nation since there will be panic alarm systems instead of, you know, FIXING THE FUCKING GUN PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.
The price of freedom: murdered children.
Thank you for this reasonable response.
Perhaps when things mature, I’ll give it another look. YouTube for me, when not signed in, does not have the sheer plethora of MAGA nonsense like this site does. Maybe it’s some regional algorithm, I don’t know, though I live in the south where MAGA idiocy runs rampant.
I take the path of least resistance when it comes to filtering out lies and garbage from my life. For now it’s simpler for me to just not browse the site than to weed out such content.
Yep, and Android also suffers from plenty of malware within the Play Store. I’d rather a company focus on combating that than worrying so much about minor features.
Edit> Yeah I figured I would be downvoted. People are very tribal and base their identity on such which means they will disagree with me. I am a pragmatist and don’t want to deal with malware and a shitshow of fragmentation — so while it does suck to be within Apple’s walled garden, it at least fits my needs.
Just love all the ChatGPT ads embedded in the article.
And before all the “jUsT uSe An Ad BlOcKeR” messages, I’m on a phone using the main browser and have nothing set up where I’m at (DNS/etc) to block ads.
It’s amazing how many poorly-written articles are being posted about Linux lately, and on top of it, has ads for the very thing they’re talking about switching to Linux to avoid. Almost as if it wasn’t written by a human.
EDIT>> And there they are. Get a life.
iOS user: That’s a shame.
But seriously, this sucks and is why Google needs more rigorous vetting of apps that go into the store. Sure, you sideload, that’s your problem. But if on the Play Store, the general Android user would think there’s some good level of governance.
Of course there’s a measure of caveat emptor here. So hopefully it’ll teach people to be wary of what information they freely give out.
LOL, well I guess the Reddit masses are on Lemmy full swing now. Enjoy the malware, I’ll continue laughing about it.
The problem is that you’re still not learning, then. Maybe that’s your goal, and if so, no worries, but AI is currently a hammer that everyone seems to be falling over themselves finding nails for.
All I can do is sigh and shake my head. This bubble will burst, and AI will still take decades to get to the point people think it is already at.
