I'm with ya on that one. I'm curious to try PieFed, but hesitant, because it'd mean installing Interstellar and using that instead of Boost. It'd be nice to have all accounts in Boost, even if it means forgoing some of the exclusive PieFed features to begin with.

And in this future scenario, even if it isn't all fridges that phone home, or you somehow manage to disable it on a fridge that does, I'm sure that'll make your premium go up too. It'll be advertised as a cost-saving measure - "Give us access to this data, and you premium will be less! (Until we see you buying something outside of your plan, in which case, you'll have to pay more)"

Det lyder meget rigtigt at det er noget for Kræftens Bekæmpelse, men også super vildt at der bare ingen info er at finde om det. Men så igen, så er det jo også minimum 17 år gammelt! Haha. Jeg prøvede endda lige at bruge Ruffle, en flash emulator, til at få afspillet flash hjemmesiden, men det virkede desværre heller ikke.

Yeah, I never thought I'd be a vertical tabs fan, but I am really loving it in combination with their compact mode. Really nice layout with the containers, pinned tabs and essential tabs! Also really digging the Glance feature and floating URL bar. I'm really looking forward to folder support!

Yes, it is. I have no idea if the guy is telling the truth though, about being the guy responsible. Unfortunate that he shares a name with the Ubisoft executive.

EDIT: Alright, looking at the rest of his responses, he has got to just be a random guy, joking around, hahaha.

Good question, wish I knew too. Although I didn't even notice at first, because Ive always clicked the comments link.

I have yet to find a paywalled article, where putting archive.is/ in front of the link, doesn't solve that problem.

Doing that for this article, gave me this link: https://archive.md/KBTlE

Although in the case of this article, you'll have to request the desktop version, if you're using a phone, because otherwise their Read Next box will cover some of the text at the end.

El Salvador’s Prisons Are Notorious. Will They House Trump’s Deportees?

President Nayib Bukele has offered to jail deported criminals from the United States. His prisons have earned him a reputation as being tough on crime, but have raised alarms over rights abuses.

But the article doesn't really make it clear how much AI is involved in the textbooks, just that "Digital textbooks that make use of artificial intelligence are being adopted throughout South Korea.", emphasis mine.

Other text from the article, relevant to your question:

South Korea, the 2025 APEC chair, held the group's first education ministers' meeting in nine years, the theme of which was innovation in digital education. Education ministers from 21 countries and regions participated.
[...]
Private companies and government-affiliated organizations set up booths at the APEC venue to promote their efforts. They exhibited software in which generative AI writes student evaluations on behalf of teachers or assigns homework and applied problems tailored to each child's level of understanding.

The road to implementation was not a smooth one.

The government's original goal was the world's first rollout of AI digital textbooks to all schools nationwide. But teachers worried about the burden that making full use of the technology would place on them, while parents questioned whether the textbooks would actually improve student performance and whether they could lead to digital dependency.

After heated debate, lawmakers made last-minute changes, including requiring continued use of paper textbooks for subjects such as Korean and home economics and delaying implementation for other subjects. The government also made plans to provide advanced training to more than 160,000 teachers as well as dispatch 1,200 digital tutors as support staff.
