Sounds like proton is building a complete and centralised ecosystem, kinda like Google. Sure, they’re not the same as Google, and you can probably trust them as far as security is concerned. But, for me, decentralization is key to privacy.

Technology@lemmy.world•DVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical mediaEnglish
37·5 days agoThe future is self-hosted digital media. I’ve got no qualms with pirating media. But I am an advocate for buying digital media from artists directly.

Technology@lemmy.world•20 Years of Banning Phones. We Don’t Have That Long for AI.English
1·6 days agoThis article reads like it was written entirely by AI, and I’m willing to bet the “Promt Author” won’t deny this either given their promotion of AI. Its not just the em dashes, there’s a particular AI vernacular that’s becoming more and more obvious.
I don’t disagree with the idea that we need to prepare our future generations for the rapidly changing world of technologies etc, but like most others in the comments, I’m sceptical about embracing these technologies without careful consideration for what it means for generational knowledge and human intelligence in general.

2·17 days agoYeah, true. But I saw people mentioning XMPP in the comments and thought the link might be helpful for some. It’s not like it’s wildly unrelated to the topic… I stand by it.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•I just halted a job interview process - due to self respect.English
23·2 months agoYou did the right thing, and you did it gracefully. I would have told them to fuck the fuck off, and probably would have reported them to the department of consumer affairs and to the fair work commission (aus)
Totally agree. The docs don’t talk back and can’t clarify specifics or uncertainty. I always read the docs first (probably should have noted that in my first comment), but often I’d have specific questions or concerns regarding unintended affects on other services on my sever etc.
I’d never JUST run with AI to set something up. But it’s like having someone sit with you who knows what they’re doing, but dont know anything about your existing setup. So asking questions while also explaining my current setup, and pasting in and errors or warnings, is what made it useful for me.
I know some people think you should just learn from docs alone. That’s fine. My anecdotal comment was only highlighting how I was finally able to do something outside my knowledge and skillset because I had specific contextual help from AI.

Don’t take it personaly. This just isn’t the community to be posting your little life updates in. In my opinion, you’d get better engagement over on mastodon. Plenty of neuro-diverse peeps and it’s generally better suited to micro-blogging then Lemmy.
