They have had their Store for over 10 years now. I envy you if you haven’t had to deal with Windows for so long. It’s not even user-friendly anymore, it just hates it’s users and constantly tries to scam you with ads and pop-ups

on Where Waterfox stands on AI and LLMs in c/firefox@lemmy.ml · 6d ago
Shitty browser scoring quick points by taking a stance against thing everyone already hates.
I only wonder if they have ditched Microsoft Bing, or it’s still the default search engine.

on GrapheneOS project: pixel 11 no longer supports hardware memory tagging (MTE); GrapheneOS might skip the the whole pixel 11 series in c/technology@lemmy.world · 31 Aug 2026
I managed to squeeze 5 years out of a $200 budget phone. 7 years on mid-range or flagship is trivial.
Especially as new Pixels have lots of features to improve battery longevity:
-
charging only up to 80%,
-
OLED display that turns off pitch black pixels. Many apps nowadays have pitch black themes, and you can set wallpapers to pitch black,
-
limit display smoothness to 60 Hz,
-
battery saving mode,
-
dark mode,
-
turn off background usage for individual or all apps

on Trump says Russia is 'not going to attack' NATO territory in c/europe@feddit.org · 28 Aug 2026
Even if Russia attacks NATO, umm…what will Putin get out of it?
Return on investment. Russia hasn’t switched to war economy for nothing. War economy is unsustainable unless you invade and pillage rich countries, and Ukraine isn’t one

Thanks, this makes sense

Yes.
GOS has compatibility issues, but they are unrelated to the sandbox and can be fixed with some tweaking.

And I still believe in having a curated primary digital fingerprint.
Could you please elaborate? I know what digital footprint is, minimizing and compartmentalization techniques, but not primary and curated digital footprint.

Your argument is extrapolating way too much. You constructed this overcomplicated chain of thought that supposedly proves GOS sold out because… They got a manufacturer to build hardware that meets GOS requirements?
This is no different from ZOG, deep state or Blackrock conspiracy theories.

on Motorola's 2027 flagships will officially support GrapheneOS in c/technology@lemmy.world · 25 Aug 2026
I could have sworn they had plans to ship Graphene phones
They do. They say it in their roadmap:
Hardware and firmware security are core parts of the project, but it’s currently limited to research and submitting suggestions and bug reports upstream. In the long term, the project will need to move into the hardware space.

Most people will still use Instagram TikTok and such.
The beauty of Graphene is it’s sandboxing and exploit protections are built precisely on assumption that the user will install every single piece of malware out there. The OS doesn’t trust anything by default.

on World's largest open library calls for volunteers to scan and preserve physical books as AI companies buy, scan, and destroy them — Anna's Archive says ‘time is running out’ as ‘knowledge is permanent in c/technology@lemmy.world · 24 Aug 2026
Perhaps there is a public library in your area that accepts donations? The one I live by is STARVING for support, they accept books, old computers, anything.
They do good work for the community too, like free tech literacy classes, chess for kids, etc.
But if you are dead set on an online NGO, then maybe archive.org? You have probably heard about their Wayback Machine, but they preserve books and other media too.

on Teen Boys Are Using Meta Glasses to Terrorize Girls at High Schools and Middle Schools in c/technology@lemmy.world · 22 Aug 2026
This has nothing to do with flirting. They harass girls to feel in control and take out their dating frustration on someone else

on Chinese video platform Bilibili is going global to challenge Youtube in c/technology@lemmy.world · 22 Aug 2026
This won’t help PeerTube become mainstream either.
Hosting videos is extremely expensive, thus there is a financial incentive against hosting a PeerTube instance.
Unless PeerTube fixes the incentives, it won’t be sustainable long-term.

Fairphone costs cheapest in carbon footprint and disruption caused to copper mining communities.
It’s more expensive for you, sure, but it’s the least costly option in grand scheme of things.

on Why Normal People Aren’t Using AI Agents in c/technology@lemmy.world · 9 Aug 2026
This article’s title is ridiculous. What do you mean ‘why don’t normal people use agentic AI?’ Were they supposed to?

on Why Normal People Aren’t Using AI Agents in c/technology@lemmy.world · 9 Aug 2026
I think there were already some research findings, how software developers tend to drastically overestimate how much AI helped them, while AI was actually hindering their productivity. It could be the same case here.
What AI is really good at is spitting out plausible sounding garbage, pretending it did some comprehensive research on the topic, and making people feel like it’s helpful without neccessarily being so.
I am surprised they actually didn’t see it. When gamepass was introduced, it seemed like insanity - how is $10 subscription with access to $60 titles is going to pay off, this makes no sense. Well… It didn’t.
