DJT got rid of the middlemen (lobbyists)?

Quite fitting, as Jassy loves hockey.

ahhh... 5 whys... having horrible flashbacks of that place.

Brave Search + Google Scholar for me.

> Give me a way to filter out results with ads on them please.

Use Brave Search with Goggles (https://search.brave.com/goggles/discover). It's great.

For me, quotes no longer are exact match. Google Search is kind of a bust.

Selling off your data privacy... duhhh. :crying:

My favorite is these "vibe coding" situations that leave SQL injection and auth vulns because copy-paste ChatGPT. Never change.

Use Mullvad + Brave Search. Problem solved.

This equates to "Mic popping at-will." "Hyper-surveillance state."

Unplug those things already. Alexa devices are spyware.

yes. that was the original design actually. and it worked. latency was a bit much though.

Love FrameNet. Awesome to see it's alive and in-use.

I remember when Alexa in a household appliances (e.g., microwaves) and nearly burned people's houses down. This should be interesting.

Brave Browser works (Chromium)

works on Brave Browser

is X susceptible to DDOS?

Humans get things wrong too. Humans are not 100% accurate; not by any stretch.

Smart move.

Perhaps DJT took a liking to Altman after Altman's own sister came out with the sexual assault allegations[1], and Altman's business continues to be hit with an ever-growing list of lawsuits[2]. "One of us! One of us!" style.

Altman clings to the presidential coffers, while DJT clings to Altman's presumed innocence until proven guilty (because DJT is a convicted felon, guilty many times over of sexual assault, abuse, and fraud). Quite the villainous duo.

Also reminds me of Amazon being sued for giving employees access to Ring data: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/01/08/ring-ha...

The welcome back message was quite ominous. "Thanks to president Trump...". It's giving "Hitler's Rise to Power."

It's too late. Pack your spyware up and go home already. I don't understand why people allow Alexas in their home. It's such a violent breach of personal privacy and security.

Do keep in mind, they only kept "the essential ones" when they laid off many of the Alexa teams in November 2022. What a joke.

Don't use Meta platforms anymore. Too little, too late.

ahh, Democracy...

You mean educated, grounded in facts, inclusive to more groups than white male incels?

Done. I also deleted Instagram. Meta is awful.

If this was actually true there would be a mass drop in accounts across Meta.

Sounds similar to Amazon Sidewalk...

But for people who were undecided/somewhat pro-Trump, it was MAGA nation nonstop. Similar to the alt-right pipeline Google supports via Youtube. It is scary.
