I have the same phone stock os. How’s graphene?

I wonder if it has anything to do with the hurricane.

A company called Clearview AI broke that unwritten rule and developed a powerful facial recognition system using billions of images scraped from social media. Primarily, Clearview sells its product to law enforcement. Clearview has also explored a pair of smart glasses that would run its facial recognition technology. The company signed a contract with the U.S. Air Force on a related study.

Just another reason to not post all your images to social media. Share with family/friends who care but thats it.

What does the article say? Its asking to sign up.

NVM got it: https://archive.is/a2VYP

https://tilvids.com/ has some nice videos.

If only there was a berg for code with this repo. Too bad there isn’t.

Ah gotcha. I’m on cell so it just looks unformated text.

What did you use to do so?

Yeah my positive take is this might be a good excuse for people to think of repairability again.

Because, you know, if very little new chips being made in the near future, we are going to have to.

Im a dev. But you do you. GL!

Excellent! Thanks. Ill take a look at it sometime. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

Last time I checked, there was still discussion on how people want this to work. Because its easy to say, but hard to get everyone to agree.

I would love to get a fairphone. Its just 4x the price of everything else. I cant possibly afford it here in the US.

Community collections should be a thing. Something like /cc/Technology could pull in lemmy.world/ other instances and collections of communities. It makes it easier if one instance dies, an instance de-federates itself, or just wanting to consolidate all the different /c/Technology communities across instances.

It would also be nice if communities had the option to vote on their admins once in a while. Having individuals lord over different communities is a problem in reddit.

Ive done that but just wifi. It works. Its more of a “for fun” kinda deal. I cant get rid of my smart phone because of a couple of necessary apps for work.

The CPAP lockout is something I went through. The company behind my CPAP does not allow you to get ANYTHING off the device. But there is an SD Card that you can get all the info you want from your old system. Its arbitrarily locked out.

You are also unable to repair anything on the device without insurance getting involved. And insurance is often at OEM prices (think 200+ for a basic mask). Thankfully, people have illegally added STLs/chips/parts/etc… online that you can basically reverse engineer the entire device nowadays. As long as you use medical safe materials, it saves you literally thousands of dollars. Ive replaced quite a few parts and the device is still working after many years of usage.

It has had a huge increase according to the statistics. I wonder where they are getting their numbers from. Both fedidb and other sources say the number of users are only going up.

Note, different websites have different total user counts. fedidb kinda goes up and down and I dont understand why.

But for example fedidb states 7,494,053 total Mastodon users whereas https://mastodon.social/@mastodonusercount states 15,467,187 accounts Pretty big difference. So there is probably much more accounts than what fedidb has. Or other counts are off by a large factor. Either way, lots of new faces in the fediverse! If anyone knows why theres such as discrepancy, let us know!

Lemmy is almost at 400k users alone. (391,247 ATM of writing). Its probably higher as there are servers that dont federate.

My last bastions of Google are:

1. Email. Its rock solid stable, but I know they are using it to mine data. This is a good service…but im still looking at proton at some point to make the switch. Or coming up with a solution myself.
2. Maps. Maps is also another really good service they give out for free. I have tried a huge number of alternatives, but still have no real alternative. OSM+ is the closest and works really well in emergencies but its pretty terrible at searching for anything specific to get to.
3. Youtube. This is the one I think I can possibly remove at some point. Some creators have their videos on other sites so it might be a mishmash for a while. But the best ones dont. I might just get into audio-books or some other sort of entertainment. Peertube is also a great alternative. And throwing money at !tilvids@mstdn.social might be better in the long run.

Ironically their search has taken a turn for the worse, so other sites are much better in my opinion.
