I have bad news for you.

The audience who enjoys this theater isn’t exactly sophisticated. Pro wrestling has more complex plot and believable characters.

Bloated? AI? You must be talking about Google or bing. Kagi has no such issue.

I do. I’ll turn it off and see how that goes. Thanks!

Yeah, but I guess I was hoping for a way to only do the unlock check when I raise the phone or interact with it. A notification coming through triggers the check, which I was hoping to avoid. Thanks for the suggestion.

I’ll save you a click: AI bullshit.

Oh no, a guy has an opinion! Get him!

Sadly, it is.

I thought it was a good read about the current state of technology, so I posted it in a technology community.

Fuck me, right?

Uh… it’s a guy’s blog.

stop diluting yourself.

I hate to be that guy, but… it’s “deluding” in this context, unless OP is adding water to their body.

Yep

Nothing but a net-negative to society, across the board.

Not this guy. I just use Apple because the devices and experience are better for me. I’m under no delusions, nor should anyone else be.

No, I know exactly how Google makes money. And you’re giving it to them. Sure, you avoid their tracking, but if you think they sell their phones at a loss, you’re a fool. Good day.

I’m not denying that, but your original comment was that especially Apple customers are bad.

If you buy a Pixel, you’re still supporting Google. So miss me with that sanctimonious shit.

Ok, but the implication of your post is that we shouldn’t give Apple money because they’re a bad corporation. So is Google. Yet we require these products to function in modern society. So, what do you suggest?

Oh cool I’ll just get my phone and mobile OS from this upstart named “goggle” or something?
