Why Signal is not in f-droid? Is there a statement from them about it? What I know is only in Google store . And talking to much about privacy and not being in a f-droid repo, is ironic
They also offered their .apk directly through their site with an included downloader last I checked, but I would love it to on f-droid
Thanks for posting this. I haven’t heard her before. She knows her shit.
It will be interesting tracing accountability when AI does something less than legal while trying to implement a legal command.
There are some things it would be nice to have a brain in a jar to do for me.
I do not, however, want that jar sitting in an Amazon-owned server room somewhere, where they can modify the jar to change how the brain works.
Take back your brain-in-a-jars from big tech! /j
Well put
hero material.
my family contributes $5 monthly to the signal foundation. consider doing the same if you are able.
the entire family uses it personally and for business so its among the best montly contribs we make.
I’ve got one of those I’ve been meaning to re target for a couple weeks now, Signal is gonna be it for sure!
Doing my part o7
That’s an AI rendering of her likeness. ;-)
I mean shes not wrong, but imagine I use this to do my bullshit day job so I can work on what I really want to. I would totally use this to get some rube to pay me for a job while I GameDev or something. Or at least some excel sheet monkey could probably do that I know these can’t do my job.
The problem being: Why pay you, if all they’d need is an AI agent?
Technology like this will not be used by the workers to prevent having to do bullshit jobs, it will be used by employers to prevent paying people.
In a world that lets everybody profit from the advances we make, that would be a good thing, but in the world I see us living in, that’ll just grow the gap between poor and rich.
Oh my god I haven’t seen Guy in years! He’s such a wonderful guy (heh). I think our last interaction was on Google’s G+. 😳
EDIT: Wow, that was a good panel.

He has a podcast, seems pretty good.
subscribed. thanks!
huh didn’t know she was this good looking. Also, fair points.
Do you qualify all women you meet this way or only those involved in your interests?
Whats wrong with saying someone is good looking?
It’s weird that you think it’s relevant.
It implies that that’s a quality you should be judging people on, even if their looks have no bearing on the situation.
Of all the things or even subjects you could have made a comment on in this thread, you left one on the looks of a woman.
She doesn’t need your validation. Other Lemmy users don’t need your opinion on who’s attractive. It’s meaningless and detracts from the conversation.
It implies that that’s a quality you should be judging people on, even if their looks have no bearing on the situation.
That certainly shouldn’t be how it is, but there’s a lot of evidence to support that it is how it is. Just because we don’t like it being that way doesn’t mean it doesn’t impact people’s perceptions.

To quote Eddie Izzard from her special Dress to Kill:
That’s taking my comment waaayyy to serieus
It is not a problem in many contexts. For instance complementing people in social non-work gatherings. “Wow, you look great in that suit”, or “You are even prettier than I remember”. Or when talking about someones ability to attract attention.
However in the context of an important message from a person, it derails the conversation and kinda just objectifies a person. As if it is more important than what they are saying or contributing.
It basically boils down to this: Do you want to be remembered for being good looking or your contributions to this world? How does it feel to be unsure if you got the job, because of looks? Or if people are listening because of your looks?
I am glad you asked, and I already saw someone gave a great explanation, but wanted to pitch in as well 😊
I would agree if i was directly talking to the person i was referring to. I would not brought looks up in that context for all the reasons you listed as its disrespectful.
Am i offtopic, very much. But thats what the downvote button is for. This was meant as lighthearted comment. Not about disregarding her statements.
regardless, thank you for your reply as i def can see it but it feels massive overblown.
Yup, it’s overblown. Just wanted to give an explanation, you never know what level of awareness other strangers have online. Wish you the best, and see you around!
