Yeah, and I’ll appeal the case all the way up to the Supreme Court. I have a constitutional right to not say a goddamn thing. The founding fathers knew what passwords and cyphers were. If they wanted to allow the state to compel you to give them access to information that they could use against you in court, they would have written that into the fifth amendment.
My understanding was that most of them got got because their cell companies knew where they were, not because of the contents of their phones
But also, I’d rather let every Jan Sixer go free than imprison one innocent person because they looked up textiles.com two years ago and found out how to make meth
I’m sure if the government was doing it’s damnedest to house soldiers in our apartments, there’d be more people against it. Unfortunately they’re just doing their best to jail anyone they don’t like.
Totalitarians try to use cases like this to take your rights away. Never forget how this impacts the innocent. If they can force this man to unlock his phone, they can force any innocent person to do the same. If the police think you’ve committed a crime, accessing your phone will never make them think you’re innocent. The absolute best case scenario is that they don’t find anything useful to their case. The worst case scenario is that they find your social media account where you called arson based last year, and they will use that against you.
Some people have jerked it to fully clothed women. Ought we ban every woman from twitch? Maybe enforce hijabs?
Telling women what they can, can’t, must, or mustn’t wear is the sexist part
Legitimately could be a use case
“Attend this meeting for me. If anyone asks, claim that your camera and microphone aren’t working. After the meeting, condense the important information into one paragraph and email it to me.”
You’re not wrong. I would say they’re functional junk. They’re definitely cheap, but they got my prescription spot-on , and it took me like 4 months to notice the slight warping on the lens. If they weren’t all I can afford, I would buy from elsewhere, but they aren’t the worst thing I’ve had to compromise on for price. I wish my cheap junker car worked as well as these glasses.
Zenni as well here. Overall I’m happy. To answer your question: the website has a semi-functional “virtual try-on” that works well enough for checking the look of glasses. I only used to it gauge the size of them, because I have a big head.
Worth noting that if you have a strong prescription, you’re going to pay more wherever you buy them. I have a -4.5 cyl number, and the glasses I wear now cost around $100, despite the frames starting at like $25
But nobody is burning books, we’re just saying don’t be a piece of shit on our website. If you feel like being a piece of shit, https://boards.4chan.org/b/ is right here, perfectly safe and unburned.
And also that time you refused to finish a book series because it had a gay and a nonbinary character in it
Definitely do. Sometimes it’s the only way to know whether someone just had one bad take, or if they’re genuinely awful and not worth your time to reply to
I’m pretty sure I heard a story about an open source Minecraft hack client that was openly stealing discord authentication tokens, and nobody noticed for weeks because the only people who check the source code are people who plan on modifying it
Whatever you do, it’s important to support app developers. Definitely don’t manually set your DNS to dns.adguard.com on your phone, to block all ads in apps
Super don’t use 94.140.14.14 and 94.140.15.15 as the primary and alternative addresses for systems that don’t accept URLs to DNS servers. You would block (some of) all the ads on any Internet connected device!
“What’s the best company to give control of my thermostat to?”
I’m extremely skeptical of medical diagnosis AIs. Without being able to explain why it comes to a conclusion, how do we know it won’t just accidentally find correlations? One example I heard of recently was an AI that was extremely good at detecting TB… based on the age of the machine that took the x-ray. Because it turns out places with older machines tend to be poorer, and poorer places tend to have more TB.
The only positive use I can think of is time saving measures. A researcher can feed a study to ChatGPT and have it write a rough first draft of the abstract. A Game Master could ask it for inspiration on the next few game sessions if they’re underprepared. An internet commenter could ask it for a third example of how it could save time.
But for anything serious, until it can explain why it comes to the conclusions it comes to, and can understand when a human says “no, you’re doing it wrong,” I can’t see it being a real force for good.
Aaargh it looks so cool and futuristic but I know it’s impractical as hell
