All these MBAs that learned about the advantage of first movers in school and have so little domain knowledge they operate 100% on “we just cant be late to the table”

I am explicitly against the use case probably being thought of by many of the respondents - the “ai summary” that pops in above the links of a search result. It is a waste if I didn't ask for it, it is stealing the information from those pages, damaging the whole WWW, and ultimately, gets the answer horribly wrong enough times to be dangerous.

It has a separate llm chat interface, and you can disable the ai summary that comes up on web search results.

In the non tech crowds I have talked to about these tools, they have been mostly concerned with them just being wrong, and when they are integrated with other software, also annoyingly wrong.

It’s always been the case that propaganda only works on the target audience. Thats why it’s so interesting to look through historical propaganda - it seems unreal and is easy to see through. Bots are just personalized propaganda machines.

Google doesn't care about that kind of money, they care about the discovery process.

This is happening now because the national security hawks are suddenly (and temporarily) on the same side as open source/ privacy advocates on this specific threat.

If switching email providers, always consider the option of buying your own domain name and using it with that service. That makes switching services possible in the future, without having to ever change your email address again.

Is this generated programmatically? It would be much cleaner if you had the option of posting one or two "causes" -so you don't have to post about "Canadian tech" and include so many American alternatives. It would be less overwhelming to the target audience, and/or would have space for more options.

There is nothing this technologically advanced that the manufacturers cant brick or severely impair if pushed to do so (if not by remote command, then by support neglect), and you can be guaranteed the Americans know of remote vulnerabilities as well. Thats a given. We can 100% expect they would be tarmac bricks within weeks of the USA breaking hard from NATO or Canada.

Fyi, they could also brick nearly every modern large tractor in the country right at harvest season, and most of our street vehicles. All via standard remote update infrastructure.

Thats just the reality of modern tech. It would be the same with other options, but we should pick a country not threatening to annex us to buy from.

Pretty important to show that nearly everyone outside the circles of power are against it, to demonstrate how evil all the people with power are, who have collectively shrugged it off.

I wish more people were like us on this matter, but they don't appear to be. People are using video for everything, regardless of how bad it is. One of the most popular genre of short form video is some well manicured person pointing up at some text that appears in the top of a video, set to terrible music. 20-100 words at most.
