  • What? I own an EV and it has 0 self driving. It doesn't track anything more than a normal car because it has exactly the same system (basic automatic lights and 'keeping in line' alarm). Just say you don't like modern cars all of which have those features, getting angry specifically at EVs is silly.

  • If state actor would create it it would be a backdoor. Exploits are by definition bugs/security issues that can be.... well, exploited and state-level actors are really good at finding them. Still, if it takes resources of state actor to find an exploit I don't think it's a massive L. Yes, it's totally possible they had some other serious security issues recently and I haven't been paying attention. That's why I'm asking.

  • Finding an exploit created by state-level actor is not a massive L. They have shown in the past that they are able to hack air gaped systems, weaken commonly used security standards and implant vulnerabilities into commercial software. I don't think you will find a company that is immune to this. Other than that, did they really have so many security issues recently?

  • Get some live distro first and check it out without installation. You will be able to test some basic desktop environments very easily. Most of the distros will have live image. Even better run it in a virtual machine and play around. Test KDE, Gnome, Cinnamon and XFCE. Look at some themes and plugins. I think customizing your desktop is a nice, visual way to see how flexible it all is and get the feel of how configuration files work. If you will like what you can achieve with a bit of work you will just keep going. If you will find it 'stupid and useless' it's probably not for you.

  • You go girl, milk those stupid rich people for all you can. I sure hope they are just pretending to transport ice and are actually selling them frozen tap water. Getting rich people to pay lots of money for stupid shit is basically wealth redistribution.

  • Yes, I did and I think she absolutely can be "concerned" or "worried". I just doubt she's "terrified". If she's that empathetic to those in need what is she actually doing to help them? Her wikipage says that "In 2021, the former first lady announced that she has been "moving toward retirement".[90] Though she continues to be active in political campaigns, the former first lady has said she is reducing the amount of work to spend more time with her husband." It doesn't mention any actual work she did since 2007. I don't know them but for me she and Obama just look like another rich couple enjoying their lives and not engaging at all with common people. But now she's terrified for them? I don't buy it. Just my opinion though.

  • I don't really get the point of all this. Sci-Fi movies are trying go convince us for a very long time that interacting with a computer by standing and waving your hands around is the future but for me it just looks tiring. I prefer my keyboard and mouse. We'll see how many people Apple can convince. Maybe they are right and you just have to use it to believe it...

  • I like John Oliver's take that he really didn't like the orders to shut down factories during pandemic and got a lot of support from 'mah freedom' nutjobs over this causing not-so-slow fall into the extreme right rabbit hole. It actually makes a lot of sense. He clearly craves attention and approval. He used to get it from the left because electric cars are green and SpaceX is cool technology but eventually the left began demanding more regulation and he started getting some criticism (which he doesn't like that much...). At the same time he noticed that the right is ready to accept him as the 'free speech savior' and love him unconditionally as long as he will help them 'own the libs' so he switched sides.

  • Yep, that's the bug I'm talking about. I had it and I'm not using GrapheneOS so for me the app was 'read only' and I stopped using it. And it was exclusive to Jerboa for me, all the other apps work fine.
