People want convinience. You’ll never get people to do it, unless it personally affects them. Realisticly, you can convert a few.
But most importantly. It shouldnt be that hard to have privacy. THATS the problem. People shouldnt need to do alot of things to get it.
Do something about the problem (political, legally change privacy laws) instead of every single person.
But I know that can be near impossible depending of where you live.
Imagine if we end up a place, where this tarrif shitshow actually ends up with EU and the world being independent from big tech corps on Maps, Office (Word, Excel), Windows etc.
Sometimes all we need is a wake up call.
If Mozilla’s programs keep being more privacy friendly than Googles, then no.
If the enshitification continues, yes.
But something is bound to take Mozillas place, if they get worse, and that might be the best scenario.
I think you would assume OpenAI and Microsoft had the backing for doing it though.
Cant find anything in there thats worse than today tho.
The best news from this is that the EU is willing to go these ways. Incredible for consumers in the long run and to combat monopolies.
Yes, they could sponsor something else, but what we also really want are choices and competition.
The presidental candidate from a few years back, Andrew Yang, even championed thorium reactors in the US, and now here we are.
Pathetic.
In modern EU contries, the water going through data centers is hooked up to the central heating system, which means the central heating provides cold water, and in return they get hot water back from the data center.
This provides the houses with the warm water needed, and everyone benefits.
Instead the US is out here wasting massive ressources and achieves the same goal with alot of waste of money and a great environmental impact.
And now they also expand this stupidity to the rest of the world. Nice.
Maybe I don’t know enough of this, but would it be possible to install Kodi and use that and it’s plugins for satellite? Plex also had this, and maybe Jellyfin is a good option?
In that way, you can show your satellite channels but in their interface.
Maybe that can do the trick?
I don’t think it can backfire just because there’re rules. Backfire will be possible if a rule actually made it even more legit to use AI for this.
But it might end up changing nothing for some use cases.
And my understanding of EU bills is often that it will get reviewed and changed before it will go into voting again. In that way not only the proposer of the bill have something to say.
Still I agree with you - better than nothing and let’s hope it will get bulletproof.
Didn’t the EU just made this illegal? Or what was the new AI bill about. Can’t find the article.
The US is losing power for sure, but not slower than it’s allies. Europe can’t just plug and play the US immediately, but they have considerably less problems than Americans.
And just to be clear: I’m not advocating for a US boycott. Just less cooperation than today.
Agreed. At least send the link shared to Twitter then, if there’s any. A screenshot is better than nothing.
We already met it.
It said that Taiwan was a part of One China, and it even used the phrase “we” when discussing it, as it agreed with the CCP policy.
This is a 100% noob question, I know.
But can someone who used Lineage and Graphene say why they prefer the one they do?
I’m standing between choosing one.
It’s never been a question if we could do it. We just straight up won’t. (or rich people won’t, don’t think many of us would care that much)
I think that one is universal
Probably not, but it might be worse in terms of brutality against police.
This time there will be massive security at place in critical locations. So probably no invasion of government buildings, but it might end worse in terms of violence.
They probably “only” need to break the deal with Apple. I think that’s the big one being a problem.
Mozilla could be overlooked in the grant scheme of things, and Google would want to get as many users as possible.
Yeah, they really do throw money around to keep control…
And I know it doesnt help to always say “we need political change” because it’s also an easy escape to just say that.
Im also trying my best moving me and my friends to other platforms, and we shouldnt stop. Be the change.
