Yup its exactly this. And with supply shortages, itll take a while to filter down in price unfortunately.

Why? Its a phone that supports Graphene where Google isn’t trying to kill it?

“GrapheneOS has supported Pixels because Google’s Tensor chips provide the necessary security features, but not all Qualcomm chips offer the same capabilities. Only Qualcomm’s most expensive 8-series processors are comparable from a security standpoint, and those only go in expensive flagship smartphones.”

The price has to do with cpu types. As long as those particular chips remain expensive and top shelf, it won’t reach more budget devices. Its not a malicious choice.

Lenovo is just always killing it. Guess I’m getting one of these next.

In a sense, its the system functioning as it should. If you have a healthy democratic society with good principals, juries should acquit people for things that may be crimes but are perfectly reasonable and justified.

Meta is absolutely aware its algo is pushing content from sexual predators for other sexual predators. I’ve been flagging some stuff for months and Meta’s system repeatedly refuses to do anything about it. It’s sickening. I was really close to start letter writing different politicians in my area to get it banned in Canada.

Its genuinely the worst platform I have ever seen in my life. The worse subreddits or 4chan pages were not this blatant.

I don’t think people understand how bad Facebook has gotten. It is full to the brim of criminal activities of all kinds.

May be an orange, but you sure have a smart system to alert you if the kibble is late.

An app is always a red flag, especially if it’s the only way you can interact with the device.

They literally all brag about not being educated, it’s not like they didn’t tell us. lol

We could live without anything that uses ads to “sustain” itself. Nobody hosting ads on their service is doing so to “maintain” themselves. They just want profit for their labour… they are entitled too, but its a business choice, never a necessity.

And yeah if I use something, I’ll always pay for no ads. Ads cost so much more of our lifespans and contribute so fucking little to those that host them. Garbage.

I respect your take, but I think it is wrong.

Who’s houses are the datacenters being built next to?

I think Ai hate might be the single most unifying position in the west right now.

Most people didn’t even trust algorithmic automation before agents came along. lol

Some transit channels have uploaded mirrors to PeerTube but the numbers are minuscule compared to their Youtube channels.

Feel free to read those scholars if you want to be unimpressed. I am unconvinced by the faint evidence.

I’ll grant them it’s more historical than Atlantis.

Nope, its not because Schliemann was a Homer otaku that his discoveries were what he said they were. Guy had a worldview and made the evidence fit it.

There are many cities that were looted and rebuilt several times in the ancient world while having large walls.

TIL people still believe ancient Troy existed.

Mass Effect was really just Bioware not wanting to pay for Star Wars again. Why not do the same and make a new Mass Effect worthy IP?

The trilogy told the story. Andromeda didnt really add much.

They actually don’t take them down even if reported. I’ve been flagging stuff like this for 6 months. They refused. I appealed the refusal, a human supposedly reviewed it and it still was refused. The algo thinks I like that shit, so it shows me more and I report more of it. Nothing ever comes from it.

I’m talking about obvious CSAM or allusions to it. Accounts run by cybercriminals using images of minors to lure marks. Fucking shit that anyone with a working morality would remove.
