I’m unsure or not if this is true but I did see some people saying that that checkbox when off only anonymizes your data, but it still may be trained on. Someone correct me if I am wrong
The young people are probably on to something. They are the future after all.
Soon enough these will start showing ads - I pray for our night sky.
> It is not so simple a problem. Should people have the right to do whatever they want with hardware they buy? Yes.

It's actually so simple you answered it right here! It's John Deere's problem to comply with the regulations we as society require of them - that is the cost of doing business.

If you asked 100 people which question is more important, yours or mine, I don't think I'd get 100, but I'd probably get 90+. IMO, asking the dollar value of our rights isn't the "right" questions to be asking ourselves.
Bananas that stuff like this needs to get litigated in our society - if you asked 100 random people "should farmers be able to repair their equipment", you would get 100 yes's.
Absolute disgrace.

I use gpt 5.5 at work (because they pay for it) and DeepSeek at home (because I pay for it) and while I do agree one is better than the other, I think you’re really overstating how far apart they are. Just my take.
I truly don't understand why our society is so hung up on naked bodies.
> It's absolutely not the slightest bit crazy

Imo, speaking like this normalizes their behavior - it was crazy then and it's crazy now.

I cannot open this link.
Twitter links often do not work for many people, please dont post them.

One of the best ways to get better at something difficult is to do it a lot.

> The packages for departing employees will include the equivalent of their full base pay through the end of 2026. Healthcare coverage is different across the globe, and if you’re in the United States, we’ll continue to provide support through the end of the year. We are also vesting equity for departing team members through August 15th, so they receive stock beyond their departure date. And, if departing team members haven’t hit their one-year cliffs, we are going to waive those and vest their pro-rated equity through August as well.

The announcement reads as pretty heartless to me, but this is a very, very nice departure package

This is great news! I use mise everyday - it's basically muscle memory to type "mise" before a command in many of my projects now thanks to mise tasks

If a headline asks why, then the answer is money.
Re:US cities are axing Flock Safety surveillance technology on Wednesday April 08, 2026 @01:33PM (#47693518)
Surveillance tech can alter peoples behavior. I know I'm personally more stressed when I know I'm being filmed, even if I'm doing nothing wrong.

I wish people would stop posting twitter links, they're a coin toss if they're even viewable
Accurate.
Really depends on the application, no? I wouldn't want my IDE opening every file in a new window.

Thanks for clarifying - I think some of the wording was throwing me off. What a wild time we are in!

I just actually can't tell, it reads like satire to me.
Re:Claude Code's new hidden feature: Swarms on Saturday January 24, 2026 @04:31PM (#46747901)
Is this satire?

This happened to me too, you need a phone number unfortunately
Ah! I misunderstood your product :) Notifications would be an awesome feature to add
