No different than the Amazon Echo devices, Google Assisstant hardware and other such devices being sold at a loss just to squeeze all that juicy data.

And people willingly put these spyware always on mic devices in their homes.

We need more awareness on privacy…

Hey, it"s not bad if it’s the US doing it… freedom for everyone

When you put out photos of yourself on the internet you should expect anyone to find them and do whatever they want to them. If you aren’t expecting that, then you aren’t educated enough on how internet works and that’s what we should be working on. Social media is really bad for privacy and many people are not aware of it.

Now if someone took a picture of you and then edited it without your consent, that is a different action and it’s a lot more serious offense.

Either way, deepfakes are just an evolution of something that already existed before and isn’t going away anytime soon.

Exactly. At the end of the day, naming is not that relevant as long as it conveys the message of what the app does. It only gets confusing when you have a bunch of apps doing the same thing

Unfortunately, as much as I like and use firefox on both pc and mobile, chrome and chromium based browsers dominate the market. It doesn’t help that they come pre-installed in both cases.

I wish it was 600 when it came out. In Europe it was 900€ and still is in many places, although it can be found around 800€.

As for features around the same price, for example Samsung s24 offers 7 years of software support compared to 4 at most I guess from Sony and 1 generation newer snapdragon.

But the s24 has several drawbacks for me: shitty bloated software likely with e-fuse blown if u try to root it, larger screen (6.2"), crappy underscreen fingerprint sensor(I love side-mounted capacitive), no jack, no sd.

I guess I will be stuck with the s10e for little while longer.

Kinda pricey when you look at what competition offers in that same range

Not sure if you know, but there is an app called gadgetbridge, open source that can interface with many wearable devices including pebble. I use it with an amazfit bip and it works very well. You should give it a try.

It was the last <6" flagship smartphone. Not sure what to replace my s10e with. The battery is failing and I didn’t get any security updates in a year. I could unlock the bootloader and put a custom rom on, but that blows the e-fuse in the SoC so bye-bye decent camera and possibly mobile banking too

Meh, I was actually planning on getting a zenfone, but the limited software updates kinda put me off

They also fail the jerry rig durability test. They are very bulky too.

Beep boop ah shiet… They done got me this time… runs away leaking oil and steam

Not all bots are bad, the piped bot is nice and there are others too

You know what didn’t die yet? My 8 year old earbuds that have a wire and plugs into the jack. And guess what, I don’t even have to charge them or worry about losing one of them.

Fuck wireless headphones.
