  3. I notice the craptions (auto-captions) getting worse on YouTube and presumably other places that use them. It's not just a video or two.

    There are some really bad mistakes that aren't simply "mishearing" something. And it can often give something a VERY different and sometimes even opposite meaning from what the true meaning is that hearing people get. #Audism #Accessibility #FuckAI #FuckGoogle

  5. Estoy usando mi Redmi 15C sin cuenta de google ni cuenta de Xiami. Todavía existen formas de desactivar la optimización de sistema (eufemismo de las restricciones de MIUI) y con eso se puede hacer un debloating bastante salubre sin root, desde la PC.
    Pero, aún así, muchas apps piden una cuenta de Google para iniciar o para registrarse, y MicroG se queda corto.

  8. I know Google sucks rancid demon jizz, but this is next-level cunty.

    Me: Put this list in 2 columns, separating the Title from the URL, to paste it in a spreadsheet.

    GEMINI: Sure thing! BTW, I injected my Goo, changing all the URLs into a Google search query for each one instead.

    Me: Redo the list without google links.

    GEMINI: Sure thing!

    Me: The URLs are still Google links.

    GEMIN: Sorry! Here you go—just the base URLs you need!

    Me: They're still google queries...

  10. Death by AI

    "This is the future of the internet. No websites, just a chat box with ads."

    And people still seem surprised that I don't want to use LLMs for... anything, much less coding. I want these companies to all go out of business in the most spectacular way possible.

  11. 10% to go until I can delete my Fitbit account, completing a Googlectomy on another area of my life. #fuckgoogle

  12. CW: computersnak / linux / samsung tablet

    Nå, jeg fik aldrig Debian op at køre, jeg kunne ikke få fut i hverken Firefox eller andre browsere. Så jeg endte med at lave en 'factory reset' på min Samsung Galaxy. Denne gang uden at logge ind på tabletten med min Google-konto eller oprette en Samsung-konto (... hvilket jeg gjorde sidst).
    Nu kører jeg uden adgang til Android-apps via Google Play Store, men hip hurra for F-droid! Det har sine begrænsninger, men nu er tabletten endelig MIN!

  13. RE: mastodon.social/@matthiasott/1

    Here, read this. Matthias:

    "The infrastructure being built – a deeply personalized agent ... generating natural-language recommendations with no visible boundary between organic and paid content – is a monetization engine.

    Vidhya Srinivasan, VP of Google Ads, put it plainly: 'The best ads must be answers.' Ads are already running inside AI Mode. They’re not banners next to the output. They’re generated by Gemini to read as part of the conversation. And advertisers... must hand over creative and targeting control to Google’s system. 'You can’t choose keywords anymore.'"

    The answers in Google's new AI-based search _are_ the ads.

    More at the post, give it a read.

  15. I need to find spoons to start hard blocking Google after this latest step forward with the ensloppification of the web, but that also means I need to figure out other ways to get my websites in front of people who will give a shit.

    I already automagically cross post to Fedi when new content goes up (infrequent though it may be), but like, what are the other alternatives? Like, any recommended web rings? Other options?
