You know that AI/ML is not only LLMs, right?

I wish I didn’t see this article, but if you feel like losing all faith in the future of humanity for the fifteenth time today, here you go.

on Looking for a secondary cheap phone for travel, any recommendations? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 7 Sep 2026
Camera was working sometimes and when it did it had a strong green hue. Calls were working well, but the secondary microphone for noise cancellation was not used so the sound on the other side was rather bad.
As I’ve said, it a bit rough but getting very close to useable for me at least.

A bit rough around the edges in the ui/ux department. Otherwise if you don’t expect much more than Firefox and calls its certainly usable for a daily.
Definitely worth a try on a cheap phone imo.

I recently bought an OnePlus 6T in almost pristine condition for about £40. I got it mostly for playing around with postmarketOS but it handles lineage perfectly fine. CPU is fairly snappy both under lineage and postmarket and for that price you can’t buy just the OLED display, let alone anything else.

Time to start shooting nudes on film I guess.

Do you have a link to a list of the 65 advanced technologies? I’d be quite interested in checking it out.

Like working on open source projects?
In light of recent mass layoffs I’d be quite interested what options of making (plenty of) money you think exist for developers that don’t actively make the world worse.

on A Chatbot-Free Childhood Will Be a Status Symbol in c/technology@beehaw.org · 9 Aug 2026
In most countries by the age of 6 or 7 most kids would be in school and sat in a chair for most of their waking hours. What sort of Captain Fantastic utopia with with sunshine, rainbows and developing muscles do you imagine contemporary childhood to be?
If by the age of 15, as the original comment suggested, a kid has never touched a screen they would be ostracised by their classmates and most likely have lasting trauma.
Of course it’s nice to spend weekends and holidays outside, but a blanket ban on screentime is something else completely.
Then again, parents are entitled to their own opinions and as I’ve said, it’s none of my business what these opinions are.

It’s none of my business how you decide to raise your children but I firmly believe screentime is not such a big deal. Engaging with corporate apps designed to be both addictive and extremely easy to use is.
I think giving a kid their own beater laptop with some linux distro to tinker with, break, learn how to type, play a few games, draw or whatever else interests them especially at an early age would help the child to engage with tech in a creative and productive way and not be afraid of messing with it.
My bet is that the most tech illiterate people that view LLMs and computers in general as some sort of magic are the most severely affected ones.
While I completely agree with you, I think we should give him a break on this one. The man’s 85 after all.
