I would assume all data that companies can get their hands on. Fun fact, I installed Windows 10 in a VM a few days ago and it had like 5 "do you want to send us optional data or only the required data? Y/n" screens in the installer alone 💀
kept, and used long term
Probably until you request it's deletion using a law like GDPR. Data is valuable because:
it's used in targeted advertising
it can be sold to data brokers
it can be sold to government agencies
depending on the type of data, it might be usable for AI training/can be sold to AI companies
I avoid AI content because it's sort of an intellectual goo. It looks like there were some thoughts behind it, smells like it, and then you notice the distorted letters or certain writing style patterns. The AI we have currently is not sentient, so if there are no humans in the loop doing quality control then you end up with an AI telling people to eat rocks while citing The Onion. I lose trust in anything when I spot that a part of it was AI generated - without being explicitly marked as such - for this reason
Then there's AI's heavy association with corporations/VCs/tech bros, giant waste of electricity, bias in the training data, legality and ethical implications of training AI on data from the entire internet, people losing jobs, companies running sweatshops of people in 3rd world countries to manually classify said data, the list goes on and on
Idk. I feel empty inside. I don't really feel joy. I don't really feel sadness either. I just kinda persist. There are things I want to do. I don't have the mental strength to do them regularly. Or like at all. Usually I tell myself that's because I'm tired after the day/week. But deep down I know that this is not it. Or at least not the main reason. I don't really do anything even during holidays. Every day feels the same. I know that this isn't good for me, but I don't care. I don't worry about the future. Society is fundamentally broken, and always was/will be. I just go with the flow
In other words, it’s fine to defend vigilantes when they kill unarmed Black people or anti-racist activists, but when a CEO’s life is taken, we must solemnly stay silent on the reasons why such a person might be targeted or why bystanders might not be crying.
I like what GrapheneOS is doing, but it's focused on having the absolute best security rather than supporting a lot of phones. If you aren't wanted by three letter agencies then LineageOS is good enough
I bought my current phone specifically because it was supported by LineageOS. Before that I used an unsupported Samsung phone, which was such a shitty experience that I made a promise to myself that my next phone has to have custom ROMs available
Yeah, it did. That feature has been there at least since when Mozilla enabled "Firefox labs" section in settings by default a few months ago, and maybe even earlier than that
They hated him because he told them the truth
No way, Fediverse drama
I'm a bit out of the loop, can anyone explain what @moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone meant by "moderatorial and ideologial differences"?
I'm in this photo and I don't like it

That's a subjective question. I personally like Material You more, but Fluent is good too
Lmao, I love the diss at that AI post. Merry GNU/Christmas 🎄🎁🎉, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Christmas 🎄🎁🎉
From the article:
I use Helix. It's kinda like a preconfigured Neovim. I really like it, my only complaint is that it (currently) doesn't have a filetree
So... what does this partnership actually mean? Will Ecosia be the default search engine once the deal with Google ends?

I just install LineageOS. It doesn't have any bloatware or Android modifications that the manufacturer added
LocalSend - like AirDrop, but cross platform
This reminds me of the Bussin programming language
Yes. No thoughts, head empty
