This all feels like there’s a simple solution. Have scheduled and consistent closed note (or hand written) quizzes and essay style tests. The people that use AI to do all the work will bomb or they will have learned what’s necessary, and the homework was just busy work anyway.
There is a clarification from Google in he article that I don’t believe was there when I first posted. It still by default allows Gemini to have access to things I don’t want it to access, which is anything. It can be blocked through the Gemini apps activity, but I don’t think that was clear in the OG text.
None the less, they claim that it will be completely offline and that no information will be used to train their models. I believe that’s probably true in the short term, but I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them, and I’ve got fucked up shoulders. I’ve little doubt that they will change policy in 6 months to a year so that some data is sent anonymously.
I just want it so if I say don’t allow this thing at all, ever, that stays true and they don’t make me later opt out of that thing.
For sure, as long as that’s a viable option for me, I’ll do it, but if I don’t have that option…
It’s good to know that it’s easily reversible of necessary
I should rephrase. They don’t make cheap bad products. I think iOS, Mac OS, and their walled garden approach makes their hardware a bad product. Compound that with being exorbitantly expensive for what you get, and that’s always been too much to overcome for me to support. Now they are/have becoming the less bad option.
I do have it disabled, but this article suggests that it will ignore that and it will be integrated in apps that I really really don’t want it in. I could stomach it if it was search and other functionality like that only, or even if it 100% ran local with no ability to phone home and train on my data, but it doesn’t. Not that it can be listening to calls, reading messages, etc, I’m definitely hard out.
My old one is a 6, so I think it should be supported. I really just need to bite the bullet and do it.
The title isn’t there to tell the whole story though. It should give a high level summary and then the details are in the article. If you hypothetically put something like what you suggested, it still doesn’t give all of the context, and the title would need to be longer to include the history of Musk, his drug use, his position with Tesla, etc, and you can’t put that all in the title. I’m all for dunking on that Nazi whenever we can, but I personally don’t think that the title of this article deserves any criticism, especially in the age of clickbait titles that don’t give anything, this one is decently descriptive.
I’ve been Android and Windows user for pretty much all of my life. Vehemently anti Apple because of the company and I’ve thought the products are trash. I’ve been 100% Linux for over a year and a half, and if this Gemini stuff comes through, I will not have an android phone either. I have a Pixel and my old still functional Pixel. I need to try installing grapheneOS or something else and trial it to see if it will work for me.
If Linux isn’t an option for me in the future for whatever reason, I will be purchasing a Mac. I will never have a Windows machine for the rest of my life if I have any say in the matter, work being the obvious and uncontrollable exception. The fact that I’m even entertaining the idea of owning an iPhone or a Mac is really telling about how far Android and Windows and enshitified.
I went to Mo’orea in 2023. It was the best place I’ve ever been. Highly recommend.
The headline to me clearly is stating that people are not buying Teslas and are buying alternative Chinese based EVs instead. I think that anyone that’s heard Elon’s name over the past 6 months can read between the lines and understand the causation here.
This is a common misconception. If a person or corporation takes money for charity, like rounding up for bill at point of sale, that entity doesn’t get to write that off taxes. They can claim publicity for raising money for charity, but they didn’t get any direct financial windfall. They would only get something if they were to say, match the donation contribution.
They’ll still fall in line next election and vote Republican though. Ain’t nobody hates an immigrant more than another immigrant.
I’m calling on all Texas children everywhere to vandalize these commandments at every opportunity. Maybe you can’t or shouldn’t march during tense situations on the streets, but you can protest in the class room. Walkouts, sit ins, general malfeasance… Let’s see what this younger generation has.
Are you suggesting that seeing a bunch of cargo trucks on satellites means that it’s would have been able to go from no nukes to functional nukes in less time than it would take comes to vote on striking? Cargo trucks and mobilization in a foreign country is absolutely not a justifiable reason to attack. Especially considering the strikes that came before and the evacuation that Iran went through in anticipation of Trump’s terrorism. There’s naturally going to be an uptick in activity.
There’s absolutely no gray area in this one. There wasn’t an imminent threat and he bypassed the constitution by bypassing Congress to attack a foreign nation.
That says a lot about how worthless if a human he is.
Okay, Hitler.
Most of us can, yea.
They just checked voter registration. Easy pickins from there.
Not with Trump’s cock and balls in their mouths.
