HIPAA also only covers specific types of information medium. It’s not a generic “you can’t share information” law like most people think it is, it’s a “if you’re storing information you need to follow these rules about who can see what, and have these safeguards in place to prevent access” law.

Ok. Cool story, bro.

Edit for clarity to any observers: take a look at this guy’s comment history to see how seriously you should take him.

I took a class from a local organization on it and it really provided the motivation and support I needed to make the switch. My wife and I switched together and we both feel a lot better and our blood work showed radical improvement over just a couple of weeks. Been at it for several months now and I think it’s a life change for us now.

If you don’t have a class in your area, the book “How Not to Die” by Michael Greger is the next best thing.

Also, you do you, but I advise staying away from vegan communities. They can attract certain kind of person that does not provide a positive experience, at least for me. Also fun fact: you can be vegan and eat like absolute shit; Oreos and McDonalds French fries are both vegan. Plant based, whole food is stricter in terms of providing actual nutrition.

I recently switched to a plant-based, whole food diet, and seeing the phrase “chlorinated chicken” makes me feel so very validated about this choice.

What part is so difficult to understand?

How in a world filled with a rainbow of search engines, you didn’t bother to use one of them before posting that. Even like a cursory hit on Wikipedia.

Recall’s release immediately caused controversy, with experts warning that the feature could be a “disaster” for security and privacy, particularly since there was initially no option for users to disable it. This backlash prompted Microsoft to postpone its rollout. Microsoft then changed the feature to opt-in and provided instructions for how to remove it.

Backlash against Recall was centered on both security and privacy. Upon its release, Recall was described as a “potential security nightmare”. The initial version of Recall saved all data to a plaintext database, making it easy for the data to be stolen.

In response, the privacy-focused messaging app Signal published a feature for Signal Desktop that includes a “Screen security” setting, blocking Recall from taking screenshots of Signal chats on Windows. The setting is enabled by default when using Signal Desktop on Windows 11. Brave and AdGuard added similar functionality in July 2025. Later versions of Recall added full database encryption.

Wow, that’s a lot of anger to feel while also being wrong about nearly everything you posted. Maybe there’s a causation there?

People got really mad about recall because it was:

• a system that recorded everything they did
• using screenshots
• that was turned on for them automatically
• and was difficult to turn off
• and did not properly respect being turned off
• and has already been out for like, a long time.

Just going to add an edit here to say: spot on username there though buddy.

Did you just like miss the whole “windows recall” saga?

Yeah I get it, not trying to attack you but rather help you understand that what I think you’re missing may just be the scale of the problem.

You made an assertion that AI “gave us” expedition 33.

The article explains that the e33 dev team did try genAI and didn’t like it so they didn’t continue using it.

Ergo, genAI did not give us e33.

“Just tracking and stuff” is a ridiculous understatement. The web of today is primarily a surveillance tool used to cram advertisements down our throats at the cost of anything else. The big players have become so good at it that they can identify you uniquely even if you don’t use their service, because the data collected is sold everywhere else.

It has turned us all into products.

Some of us still remember the glory of the early 90’s internet. The tooling needed to surveil wasn’t there yet, and most content was about being creative, expressive, and fun. Corporations have robbed us of that and it feels like every fucking website now is just another tool to commodify you.

That your comment doesn’t reflect the contents of the article at all.

Someone didn’t read the article.

Even JS had a golden period where it was generally used to make the web a bit more fun.

Corporate greed really robbed us all of a lot.

It’s too bad this isn’t actually “DIY”, because I have been mulling over building a dual screen e-ink sheet music reader for a while. Dual screens definitely have a place, it’s just niche.

Bullshit. “Everyone” in your comment was a clear “appeal to popularity” argument, made to other anyone not on the bandwagon.

It deserves to be called out for what it is.

They did seem to go all in on genAI, but I think the claims that they’re ineffective are fairly weak.

Duolingo is a fantastic companion app to additional learning, it provides a great way to build in repetition.

I’m loathe to admit it, but the genAI voice calls actually are pretty good, especially if you don’t have any native speakers to work with. All it really does is force you to come up with the words to use rather than parroting words on the screen, which is what Duolingo has always been missing.

My entire post was a rebuttal of the “functionally no different than humans doing the same thing”.

Humans take inspiration and use it to express themselves uniquely, genAI just steals and replicates. They are in no way “doing the exact same thing”.

I see no link to GitHub, but I do see two links to crowd supply.
