Transit card is linked to your credit card which is linked to your identity. Unless you pay cash and obtain a new cars/pass each time.

It seems that comment went right over your head.

Should is the key word here. You pay a lawyer to find out, which probably isn’t worth it.

If Cortana had copilots LLM behind it, it might have survived.

Same here. That works well for desktop, they also have an electron app that wraps their web ui into a desktop app and it works well enough. Bridge works very well for any other desktop app you’d want to use.

The only trouble is that on mobile your option is their app or the web interface, no ability to use alternative apps. The mobile app is good, but not great.

Overall its a good service and I’m happy bit you need to know these limitations going in or it could be frustrating.

You can’t fix stupid. You can argue plugin hybrids are bad on the pragmatic argument that people don’t charge them and that’s fair, but to say they are the worst is just wrong. The have the potential to be the best.

When its not optional to publish email only, the proposed solution is pretty reasonable imo.

Hiding a camera in person would be actively malicious if the other party doesn’t know. Having a zoom recording leaked is less actively.

Does it actually improve the pairing experience? I am skeptical it will make any difference.

So is Voyager (also on fdroid, but is just a pwa) and its miles ahead of the native Lemmy UI.

You can definitely ‘chat’ with copilot, like other llms as well as the inline editor auto complete.

Its a fair point, and definitely worth pointing out. They aren’t as bad as the others in that very specific way, which is commendable for now while it suits them. The moment they can make more money by selling vs. holding your data, I have no doubts they will pivot.

I have been able to live with everything else, but this is the one that kills me every time.

Yeah. That post has over 900 comments, which is rare even for an Ars article. Mostly negative sentiment, which I get.

I wonder if this is something that will help bring Firefox usage numbers up to what they should be. Since so many Firefox users are privacy focused and resist fingerprinting, a lot of users don’t show up in usage numbers. Maybe there aren’t enough of them to make a difference, I don’t know. Thus is the only non-nefarious usage I could think up.

The OP discusses exactly a solution to the anyone setting up an instance to capture the data, because the users home instance federates their votes anonymously.

There maybe flaws in it, not that’s exactly what it aims to solve.

This is the main thing preventing me, and probably a good amount of other folks, from using alternative roms. If I can get all the apps I need to run, then I can’t use the rom, even if I would prefer it.

Not seeing it on f-droid yet.

I do not like this prediction, because it seems like a plausible reality. Which would be awful.

Such useful features. They should be built-in. But I’m glad they’re serviced separately so we get updates outside windows update cadence.
