I’d rather my Signal not be federated sigh Facebook at all. I’d be fine downloading a secondary Signal-owned app just for Whatsapp contacts (that way I don’t have WhatsApp on my phone), but I do not want my standard Signal traffic routed through Facebook’s data-guzzling, privacy-eroding servers.

Sounds like a good use for asset management. I’ve used SnipeIT for asset management, and it works amazingly well for this.

Get ready for a bunch of unskilled people making the shittiest apps imaginable.

We currently have skilled coders making the shittiest apps imaginable, due to shitty direction by management.

Here is a list of the other 34 countries

So, I called it Rule 34. It was a joke.

I didn’t know USA law extends to Japan…

Super interesting!

I don’t disagree [with your comment (I absolutely disagree with what ms is doing)].

However, like with all technology in the past, where the civilian market received the obsolete military technologies (think, internet, cellphones, gps, and wifi), the consumer facing LLM/AI capabilities are likely nowhere near what the bleeding edge is in the military sector. The consumer facing Copilot is a product to make it “legal enough” to harvest your data, and the EULA people agreed to without reading is the nail on the coffin in that defense. The end product has nothing to do with copilot, office, or even us civilians. We’re just the vehicle.

Ah, yes. Rule 34 of the TikTok ban.

It’s not for you. It’s for them. Copilot digests everything you type into the Office apps, and it provides them with millions of real writing examples that are free from copyright (read the new Office EULA).

I need to try onlyoffice again. The last time I tried, was the original beta, and it was faulty (being a first release beta, and all)

So, it’s win win. Good scenario.

Saw this on Sunday. I think it fits here…

It’s the guy walking next to you, isn’t it?
