There are basically two types of people who are antisocialists, they're either capitalists or ignoramuses. The former are antisocialist because it's against their class interest, and the latter because they've been brainwashed.
I've realized that there are like a dozen apps top that I actually use. I basically just need email, calendar, music player, browser, and a few chat apps for 99% of use cases. I pretty much never download random apps, and when I do need something I always check f-droid to see if there's an open source app that will do what I need first.
yeah it's just pure fascism
yeah seriously
I find it does that with fairly random stuff.
On a random note, I'd really love to see this approach explored more. It would be really handy to have models that can learn and evolve over time through usage https://github.com/babycommando/neuralgraffiti
I'd really love if somebody would make RISCV based Linux laptops that work similarly to Apple's M series where you have a SoC with shared memory. I'm really impressed just how much more performant this architecture is. Also curious if Huawei is doing something similar with their MateBooks.
Incidentally, this is such a great illustration of how fucked up the whole consumerist economy is. The article makes it pretty clear that most people are perfectly happy with the way their computer functions, but they're expected to be buying new ones just to keep the economy going. If people use the computers they currently have that's seen as a negative economically.
Yeah, I found this for firefox that's similar https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/page-assist/
Reminds me of a funny story. I moved into an apartment one time, and it had cable hooked up from previous residents. And then one day cable guy comes in and goes you have free cable, and we're gonna turn it off if you don't subscribe. I'm like yeah go ahead, and he just had this look of incomprehension, like how could somebody live without cable. 🤣
