Yes but you can’t always disconnect. For instance, my healthcare provider requires in order to access your account you:

1. Get an ID card with Google or Apple Wallet, which I don’t have.
2. Verify over text message, except they refuse my phone # bc it’s VoIP.

I will quite literally die without this so I had to get a new phone and a Google account.

If you don’t know what samurai wallet is then that title would be less informative.

No.

Replacing samurai with crypto can only mislead the reader into thinking that the issue was the crypto and not the privacy part.

No.

It also doesn’t tell you anything about why he’s being imprisoned

Neither does the current title. But at least then we know it’s something to do with a crypto wallet instead of a “privacy tool”.

it’s implied why (because he built a privacy tool)

A “privacy tool” could be an infinite number of things. A “crypto wallet” is super specific.

At this point I think it’s pretty clear you’re just being disingenuous so I’ll bid you good day.

What details are being withheld? His name, the tool’s name, the crime, the sentence? What title would be more informative?

…yeah? That’s absolutely much more informative

Samurai wallet dev sentenced to 5 years

Is that better? Only if you already know what samurai wallet is.

Correct again. I mean it’s infinitely better than the current one where it doesn’t matter if you do know what Samourai is. Also replace Samourai with “crypto” and baby you got a stew goin’.

You can’t condense an hour long video into a single sentence beyond the basic premise

You don’t have to. You just try to make it as information dense as possible. That’s the entire point of a title. It’s not supposed to be just a bunch of random filler words. You’ve just provided several great examples yourself.

Sure, and we’ve always compromised on the 2 as a society. But we continually trend more and more towards prevention rather than privacy and sovereignty.

They’re deliberately withholding basic details of the story so that you have to click the video to get them. That’s clickbait.

Ok but that is a separate discussion.

Whoa, okay that is pretty cool.

Honestly everywhere sounds like an awful place at this point. Freedom is a thing of the past. A thing from a time whence literally everything we did wasn’t tracked, and in order to exist in society, you’re expected to submit to the tracking.

I’m not disagreeing with you but what would happen back then is that they simply wouldn’t stop the crime.

At some point we need to decide if giving up all semblance of personal privacy is worth stopping some of that. I vote no enthusiastically. We just have to accept that some of that crime won’t be stopped and law enforcement will have to work harder.

Why wouldn’t you?

This integration will likely require some level of effort to get working, and what benefit do you get from that that you can’t get from opening the application in a window?

Perhaps HA can use that big GPU of yours for local LLM type stuff?

…huh? HA is typically run on a server. If you want to use your GPU to perpetuate AI disinformation, you can plug it into the server. But KDE is a workstation product…

Yes I did read that. What kind of integration? And why would you want such a thing?

I’m confused. What does KDE have to do with HA?

Thank you! WTF

Have you tried looking for the driver for your wireless card?

AI search is useless for the same reason search engines are useless. But at least search engines force you to look at the source information and the context around it. So AI search is even more useless.

Making a better search engine solves nothing. There are several dozen of them already but Google remains on the top for a variety of reasons, including continued anticompetitive behavior and overwhelming consumer apathy. Most of the other ones aren’t sustainable without using the same shady advertising Google is using. Kagi being the exception. Mozilla could definitely offer a similar paid solution.

Yeah I received similar wrong numbers. I am nearly 100% controller at this point but I got ~25% also.

I understand the existential pressure Mozilla faces. Their lunch is being eaten by AI browsers

It’s there any data to back this up? Last I checked Firefox was still the 3rd most used browser, by a wide margin.

Their statement is “we’re incorporating AI into your browser”. What “agenda” do you think this author has? Other than informing users?

Mozilla already has limited resources. Using them to incorporate features into their browsers that their users have already made it abundantly clear they do not want, is bad.

Vivaldi is like the only tech company in the world that has come out and stated definitively “we will not use AI”.

LOL the Samsung fanboys crack me up when they try to insist there’s no bloatware on these devices. I haven’t bought one of those pieces of shit since the S6.
