  1. Privacy or Security ?

    Too many hardware and software companies are forcing consumers to choose one or the other.

    This is a false choice. Choose security and they install malware that erodes your privacy. Choose privacy, and they compromise your security, which ultimately destroys your privacy anyway.

    An excellent investigation by Gamers Nexus. Smart devices should be banned.

  6. Because real service where you deal with your customer face to face can't accept "You are absolutely right! I have incorrectly identified you as a criminal and was about to fine you..." as a valid response.

    AI is not ready for all products. Certainly not products where quality matters. Maybe as clippy 2.0 or an IDE suggestion engine or a documentation reference engine.

    Great technology but greed is making us use it won't.

  11. Wonderful. An entrepreneurial boostrapper is already putting the smartglasses technology to magnificent use.

    - Notice how BBC wants the sensational headline and the eyeballs, but refuses to name the manufacturers.

    - More such innovation please. More toys for rich techbros !!

    - This is the inevitable march of technology towards a bright prosperous future for humanity.

  16. Wow! This is nuts. So, LLMs that are destroying our planet as we know it, are for 'entertainment' purposes only.

    Articles like this expose Si Valley's savage disregard for the user. And of course, codebro users who love their illusion of 10x productivity with LLMs couldn't give two shits about ethics or the planet and god forbid the poor.

    Programming needs to be bombed back into the stone age ?

  31. This appeared on my android phone. I don't know what any of this is. No option to opt out of what to me seems like entirely unnecessary and alarmingly invasive technology.

    Come on phone manufacturers! Make a model with opensource software!

  40. Western Digital has zero hard drives left for 2026. It’s February...

    AI companies are deliberately creating physical memory scarcity so your data only lives on their infrastructure.

    The goal is not innovation. It's holding your memories hostage and forcing you to rent space and useless AI compute that serves no real purpose.

  44. Ah yes. Sony PS5 now on payment plans with infinite installments. Sounds like a good deal !

    We are steadily moving from owning things to merely subscribing to exist. spotify, netflix, cars, dresses, consoles.

    Your income will run out (unless you own yachts). That's the point. You're meant to pay forever.

    Now get back to scrolling so your favourite celebrity can tell you what to buy next. I mean rent next !
