  • Your help needed: PhD research on why people choose to self-host

    Jump

  • If I have a file, I have it.

    If google has my file, they say they have it. I'm told it's there. For how long? I dunno. Private? Hell no. Forever? Likely not.

    This small discrepancy is the entire drive behind me selfhosting.

    I'm a minimalist with selfhosting, a raspberrypi with a vpn connection, syncthing and a samba share is all most anyone really need-needs.

  • I have a friend at work who openly confessed to not being able to mentally create images when discussing why he wasn't into reading books.

    I was like "Wow, I can't really imagine your reality for myself, that sounds strange."

    he said, "Now you're getting it, as I can't imagine it, either."

    Video games and film though? 1000X more entertaining for him via his testimony. He can't conjure those images so seeing someone else's interpretation is often thrilling.

  • I didn't think an old nazi with 32 felonies would be the leader of the free world, I've been surprised a few times in my life but nothing really does it anymore.

    Can you say your statement could hold up against 50 years of future trends? Transhumanism? Fanatics who want it so bad that they make it law?

    For that matter, who's regulating Ai right now?

  • ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard

    Jump

  • I feel like I looked into a bag labeled 'everything Alexa has ever heard' and gone, "I don't know what I expected."

    On the other side of the coin, the shock shouldn't be what it knows, but what every single other device you own with a micrphone might also know.

    Anyone here that isn't as equally distrusting of a stock, off the shelf cellphone is lying to themselves.

    They do, so far as anyone is aware.

  • it's Gaben

    It's a new technology. The product will be bigger than Gabe or Valve and won't take long to become duplicated in function and form, then become commonplace.

    Gabe is starting a fire, it may spread and do things against his or anyone's goodwill, Pandora's box.

  • Gabe spends a lot of time at sea since the pandemic, and kinda comes off like he has some soft libertarian vibes about self sufficiency and governance.

    For me? He's human and rich. It's reason enough to be suspicious.

    Would I get it? I won't be first, that's all I know.

    That sounds like a nice mix where nothing terrible could happen. Tons of black and brown people surrounded by the poor white rural idiots that disenfranchised both of their lives.

  • more insulting and immature fit-throwing

    The absolute worst kind of lemmy user. You can't just start an argument without something concrete to back it up. We aren't going to just assume you're right by default. Who the fuck do you think you are?

    and you're wrong

    https://www.prri.org/spotlight/breaking-down-the-differences-between-voters-and-non-voters-in-the-2024-election/

    "Voters are also more likely than non-voters to live in suburban (46% vs. 41%) and rural areas (20% vs. 16%). However, non-voters are notably more likely than voters to live in urban areas (43% vs. 34%)."

    The cut is hardly clear. That 30% is further cut by 43%, while it is a slight lead, it isn't the whole stack, and considering Trump still won due to rural, Republican voters despite every city being blue, with way higher concentrations of people? nah

    That's all you had to do, man. Why did you make this hard?
