Yeah that's what I meant by sometimes

Its becoming a trend where game companies are now making single player games require a internet connection just to play. I saw some games on Steam where single player games come with anti-cheat, like wtf.

One big reason people still play on consoles to this day is because they own a physical copy of their games and can play on their consoles even offline.

I checked the CalxyOS site, I didn't even know they had support for it and thought it was limited to Pixel devices. Thanks

I agree, but these researchers/scientists should be more mindful about the resources they use up in order to generate the computational power necessary to carry out their experiments. AI is good when it gets utilized to achieve a specific task, but funneling a lot of money and research towards general purpose AI just seems wasteful.

I find it insane when "tech bros" and AI researchers at major tech companies try to justify the wasting of resources (like water and electricity) in order to achieve "AGI" or whatever the fuck that means in their wildest fantasies.

These companies have no accountability for the shit that they do and consistently ignore all the consequences their actions will cause for years down the road.

I wish fairphone could be compatible with GrapheneOS or CalyxOS. So that way I wouldn't need an unrepairable phone.

Twitter should just merge with Truth Social at this point. So that way people will know what kind of platform they are engaging with.

Only a matter of time when these robotaxis become a trend and start populating major cities. Eventually roads and infrastructure will get built for these cars for the sake of "convince", thus leaving out any kind of investment for public transportation and walkable roads.

I helped my parents migrate to linux mint and they are very happy with the transition. No more ads, dumb bing search suggestions, or MS edge.
