I've never used my phone for anything other than curing at jeets from "the IRS", Matrix and NCD. Also work, but that's besides the point. I've never used any of the AI features on my phone.
I think I can do that on my Galaxy too but i'm sure it is absolute dog shit. If the AI is running on the phone I'm going to assume it's dog shit due to the hardware constraints.
Haha, the Galaxy! I just parked my car here, and the entrance gate issued this ticket. So i scanned it with my S8 Active... it doesn't decipher these stupid codes. So I guess I'm all good. I don't keep financial information on this antique phone...

Scottish Labour MPs are among a group of parliamentarians who have accepted donations from an Israeli state-owned arms firm.
The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Defence Technology has taken money from RUK Advanced Systems Ltd.

We know throughout history that centralized power constitutes such power via information asymmetry. The more they know, the more stable and lasting their power is.

Ford Debuts World’s First Autonomous Car To Leave Factory And Drive Straight To Shop For Repairs
According to upper-level Ford executives, the fully self-driving car is the first of its kind to be able to make a direct bee-line from the assembly line to the nearest mechanic shop.
At publishing time, Ford had released a software update for the car which saved even more time by driving to the dump instead of a repair shop.
DEARBORN, MI — The Ford Motor Company made history once again with its recent debut of the world's first autonomous car to leave the factory and drive straight to the shop for repairs.

I decided to make a new Facebook account to try and get in touch with some foreign friends that I really don't want to lose contact with. This is new. I'm guessing this is Facebook's way of gearing up for the new Australian social media laws.
The Australian government wants to have facial ID mandated as age verification for all social media. The laws already passed months ago but they don't go into effect until December. At which point it becomes illegal for 16 year olds and under to use anything considered social media. Even YouTube. Whole point is to force people to accept the #digitalid I'm sure the age restriction for social media will end up getting lifted, months after going into effect, once a large enough number of people get logged out of all their social media and get a pop up telling them to sign up for digital id, and they will because it'll be soooooo convenient.
This was a busy month, with ~80 pull requests merged, as we're trying to get all the breaking changes we can added before the 1.0 release.
The release is still several months away, as even after finishing up the rest of the 1.0 milestone issues, we still have to add this new functionality to Lemmy-UI and Jerboa, and do extensive testing.
Here are some of the major changes made over the past month:
Added multi-communities (One of the most requested features).
Added a new rate limiting library.
Refactored the API structs and library for better usage in Rust projects.
Improved the migration diff checker.
Using an external library for checking invisible characters.
Votes are now removed when banning + removing data.
Added a GDPR style data export.
Storing upvote / downvote totals you gave to each user, and a setting to display that history next to their name.
Added ability to make a note for a user.
Added an RSS feed for modlogs.
Added an API action to get liked / disliked content.
An open source project the size of Lemmy needs constant work to manage the project, implement new features and fix bugs. Dessalines and Nutomic work full-time on these tasks and more. As there is no advertising or tracking, all of our work is funded through donations. Even so there is barely enough time in the day, and no time for a second job. The only available option are user donations. To keep it viable donations need to reach a minimum of 5000€ per month, resulting in a modest salary of 2500€ per developer. If that goal is reached we can stop worrying about money, and fully focus on improving the software for the benefit of all users and instances. We especially rely on recurring donations to secure the long-term development and make Lemmy the best it can be.

Is #NATO on course for #war because of the “foreign language effect”?
By speaking a second language, we can even become more rational, more open-minded and better equipped to deal with uncertainty. This phenomenon is known as the “foreign language effect” and the benefits may be an inspiration for anyone who would like to enrich their mind with the words of another tongue.
You react more emotionally in your mother tongue because you learned this language as a child together with many emotions that you experienced as a child. You usually learn a foreign language at school where it is not about emotions and very often more about pressure. As a result, you are often much colder and more rational when making decisions in a foreign language.
In most NATO countries, English is the second language and negotiations between NATO members are conducted in English. This allows the participants to make cold rational decisions and their emotions are left out. A bad combination when it comes to establishing a peaceful world order.
Research shows people who speak another language are more utilitarian and flexible, less risk-averse and egotistical, and better able to cope with traumatic memories
@anubis2814 The problem with the US is that they are a big bully that picks wars with sheep herders and has formed the opinion that they are good at it. Given they usually lose against said sheep herders that opinion may be false. The big mistake that was made recently was forcing Russia and China to unite and the US is not the greatest any longer in any way. Just like Israel thinking it is a big boy now because it beat a load of children and then attacked Iran and got it's arse handed to it the US is very close to an extremely costly mistake. Far too many US peeps actually believe their own propaganda. Countries like Russia or China hear everyone's propaganda and know what the real world is like.
China and Russia do have their own propaganda going but it's absolutely nothing compared to US propaganda. The US has a whole oligarch controlled media industry that embeds it on a planetary scale.
@anubis2814 Chinese and Russian people are not as censored as we are and can freely read our propaganada as well as their own so they actually know what we think. The main difference is that they can see the propaganda as propaganda but the average US peep actually believes the lies. The difference is that they know it is all propaganda whereas the average peep over here actually believes Fox or CNN and sees the other as propaganda and all of Russian and Chinese news as propaganda whereas the Russians and Chinese know that it is all propaganda. You would not read Al Jazeera and would probably say racist things because it is Arab but although they are still propaganda they are probably the best globally and do the most to be objective. They were not propaganda until the US murdered a lot of their journalists and threw many others in Guantanamo during the Iraq war. We are already overstretched. The US had to move navy away from Taiwan during the Iran conflict whereas Russia and China have their armies in their bases and yes I did say Russia and am not in error. That is why it is called a special operation as they have not called up the military but you hear "Russia's all out invasion" on your news everyday when in Russia life goes on and the military are still in barracks. In 4 hours I will be chatting with a Russian client and he does not follow the conflict in Ukraine just as you did not follow the conflict that the US just had in Sudan. You just went to work and chatted with your friends but he does see us ranting on on youtube and in the media about how bad his life is while his economy is doing great, althought the price of Mac Books has gone up and he did not like that and he just bought a Volvo which cost him more than last time. Whereas every thing you write on the internet is spied on far worse than in Russia or China but you actually believe that they are cencored more than you.
The US common people are also victims of their own oligarch regime. Bombing them would be monstruous. We need them to wake the fuck up and overthrow their own oligarchs regime by their own will and means. So the only rational thing we can do is to invest our energies into opening their eyes.
@Trocatintas The people of every country are the same. You get around 95% lovely people and 5% carnts. You think of your own people and you look around your friends and think that your people are great. I spent 20 years travelling the world and saw that everywhere. If you visit Iran you will meet the most friendly people you could hope to meet. I have enjoyed my trips to the US but both countries are run by carnts. Russia is a great place, I have been there 4 times and speak with Russians every day but yes, Putin is a carnt.
Half of all EV/Battery/Solar CEO Elon's posts in the past week have been about how horrible it would be to lose his electric subsidies, and the other half have been about how terrible the deficit/debt is. And this is such a perfect example of why the US has a deficit problem.
We don't need solar. Nuclear is better in every way if it's managed correctly.
Batteries still suck for vehicles, and they will never be as energy-dense as gasoline. They are heavy (causing damage to roads), hard to produce (generally requires slave labor of African kids in cobalt/lithium mines to get the "affordable" price), hard to recycle, and horrible for the environment.
Most subsidies to EV/battery companies end up being fraudulently wasted anyway, and I don't think Elon is an exception, though he's not nearly as bad a case as the other Obama-era renewable companies.
We've been dealing with renewable energy corruption for like 15 years now. If it was economically viable without being propped up by the government, we'd know by now. It's time to look elsewhere.
For a couple days, our CO2 detectors in the basement have been going off, intermittently for short periods of time. I had just replaced them last fall and our furnace isn't in use so I checked the hot water heater and it was fine. I was a bit baffled since there is no other possible source. Then, this morning, I woke up a half hour earlier than usual, so I extended my work out. So I happened to be down there long enough for it to happen 2x. 1/2
As a result, I was able to notice that both times it was right after the dehumidifier came on. The litter box, is right next to the dehumidifier and the self clumping litter make a very fine clay dust. Over time that dust built up inside the dehumidifier and when it blew it out, it caused the false alarm. I cleaned the inside of it and moved it away from the litter box. Hasn't gone off since. This is good, the noise was putting me over the edge and it didn't cost me any $.
Glad you found the problem. We don't even have gas, but CO2 still registers on a meter that was bought. Once the windows are opened, it goes away. So...I don't know. You have to be a detective these days.

A "dirty" #USA plan A new report by #US think tank #RANDCorporation, one of #Pentagon main consultants, reveals the deeper strategic aspirations of the US in Ukraine. Under the title "The Consequences of the Russia-Ukraine War" the study reveals that #Washington's goal is not to support #Ukraine, but to break the relations between #Russia, #Europe and #China, strengthen #NATO and maintain US supremacy.
Imagine all #EU 🤡 morons who have been regurgitating western propaganda for 3 years.
This matters because I remember reading one of their big reports from 2019 called "Extending Russia" that outlined pretty clearly the perceived military and power advantages for the US, with a larger war and how interrupting operation of the Nord stream pipeline was a priority in terms of keeping Europe under the thumb for years to come.
It also outlined how extending Russia on their border will temporarily free up the middle east to expand US influence. It's all in there.

I always find it astonishing how small-minded and sensitive politicians react, when they accuse others of #censorship and violating freedom of expression.
It is not often that I find myself describing statements by Sergei Lavrov as empty propaganda, but that is exactly what his latest remarks on Europe’s plans to increase military budgets amounts to.
When we at my newspaper, #FattoQuotidiano, published my investigation on #Italy's complicity on #Israel's genocide,I was attacked, but now the UN Special Rapporteur, #FrancescaAlbanese, confirms which companies support #Israel's genocide against #Gaza

They had announced a full arms embargo on Israel. Meloni and her government had even boasted of taking a more restrictive approach than other countries.
Φτάσαμε στο ανομολόγητο σημείο οι ακροδεξιοί να κατακεραυνώνουν το ισραήλ για την γενοκτονία των Παλαιστίνιων και όλοι οι άλλοι (δεξιοί, σοσιαλδημοκράτες, πράσινοι) να χαϊδεύουν τον Νετανιάχου!!!
Quando abbiamo pubblicato la nostra inchiesta sulle complicità dell'Italia nel #Genocidio di #Israele a #Gaza sono stata attaccata come una poveretta, ora la Relatrice Speciale ONU, #FrancescaAlbanese, fa l'elenco di oltre 60 aziende responsabili
Questa è la nostra inchiesta sulle complicità dell'Italia nel #genocidio di #Gaza. La parlamentare #StefaniaAscari ha presentato interrogazione parlamentare mesi e mesi fa. Che mi risulti il ministro #GuidoCrosetto, a oggi, NON ha risposto.

I would rather remove all legal restrictions to immigration for all other groups then let Kikes, zionists, shabbos goyim and noahides immigrate into the United States and restrict all other groups
But we do not have to fund their transportation to remove legal restrictions to immigration

A new YouGov survey finds that majorities of Americans feel the U.S. is in a constitutional crisis, believe the U.S. is much more politically divided than it was five years ago, and are concerned about white-supremacist extremism.
Okay thank you all, it looks like I'm gonna live toot at least the juicy stuff 😀
Interestingly, the Commission introductory talk included a reference to how the fact that #Android is essentially #opensource software facilitates #DMA compliance. 😍
(Which does of course not mean there is no non-compliance in Alphabet products, there certainly is.)
Yay #Google goes full in, claiming the #DMA would make Europeans "second class citizens" on Android 😆
And they do the same thing #Apple did yesterday: counting the number of meetings with regulators and other stakeholders in n attempt of proving good will. Still think this rather raises the question how the heck Google can still be non-compliant after all that engagement. 🤷🏼♂️
Blah blah blah I'm gonna spare you the list of unsubstantiated bollocks claims by #Google lobbyists like "Europeans already pay more for flights because they can't use Google to find the cheapest." or "We had 3,000 engineers working 2 years full time to be compliant." and the like rather than explaining to us why we still cannot uninstall the Chrome browser.... 🙄
Hmmm, so #Google lobbyists claim "All apps on Android can be uninstalled" but from my testing on #Android 16 with all latest updates on a #Pixel this appears to be false.
Google's own #DMA compliance report from March 2025 says this is wrong:
"Android allows to uninstall apps by: (i) fully deleting apps that are downloaded or pre-installed in the user partition; and (ii) uninstalling apps in the system partition such that they are returned into an uninstalled state."
A UN expert has called on corporations to cut ties with Israel and for executives to be held accountable for enabling and profiting from crimes including illegal occupation, apartheid and genocide in the occupied Palestinian territories.
