The keyboard looks unusable. Even in her demo there were several mistakes. Handwriting recognition one letter at a time is slow, tedious, and error prone. An on screen keyboard would be better.

The mouse functionality looks interesting though. I want to see how precise it is. Maybe use the button to adjust sensitivity.

As others have said, it doesn’t seem very ergonomic. By moving the ring to the tip the index finger would work but at that point I might as well have a Joy-con.

I think it’s cool and needs more prototyping. A smaller size would be the next logical step.

Would be interesting to be paired up with something like Google Glass or Apple Vision. That way you can control something without having having to lift your hand like you’re trying to use your Jedi powers to convince someone that these aren’t the droids they are looking for.

Reminds me of the astroturfing AI bots on Reddit and agruing against each other. Lol

Drake uses an owl for his logo. Are you Drake?

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

Can Russians still buy stuff from the App Store?

Last year, I heard so much about the EU forcing Microsoft to allow users to choose a browser and a search engine.

Did that not happen?

Losing privacy for convenience has been happening. We use GPS on our smart phones for better directions. We install listening devices to add things to shopping carts and to play music by voice. We install cloud security cameras at home. We accept free WiFi in stores which gives them our cell phone info and our location. We use digital cash instead of physical cash. We buy things online rather than going to the store. Every device, like a toaster, has a MAC address.

No thanks. As long as companies send literal shit to homes, I’m good.

I’m going to hope for the best and assume this has nothing to do with their browser. Mozilla has a lot of other products.

FreeBSD doesn’t have desktop environment built in. So maybe running from command line or installation is a lot faster.

BSD might be faster but companies choose BSD because the BSD License is much more flexible than the Linux General Public License. Apple was even able to create their own license, the APSL. They would not be able to do that using Linux.

I use Catima and I am happy with it but it doesn’t have the feature to crop images and use it as a logo. It’s easy enough to image search logos though.

Starbucks in the US have asked me to create a login to use their WiFi already. I’m in the US. I guess half way there already.

Machine learning steals copyrighted material from artists and authors. Those servers have IP addresses too.

Why is a company allowed to track people from taking pirating their copyrighted content, but artists aren’t allowed to do the same to companies making a profit off their work?

Yes, that is adding controls and using a database from the SponsorBlock server.

What I mean is a plugin cannot see the video. Like you can’t write

if(screen == adScreen) {
     then skipToNextSegment();
}

The plugin isn’t reading the video, it is getting info from a database. For AI or machine learning to work ad injection, which might change for every user, doing what SponsorBlock is doing is not enough.

This is so stupid since several thousand devices can use one IP address. NAT exists.

If I download music in a Starbucks, can they fine the Starbucks CEO then?

Anyway I hope I hope online artists, and authors are able to use this to sue AI companies for stealing their copyrighted works.

Plugins can add controls and it can download videos, but plugins can’t interact with videos directly I think.

Maybe use the Youtube API closed captions and figure out the patterns for ads that way?

I don’t need a new laptop but when I do need one, I’m definitely going with Framework.

I said one was more valuable. That doesn’t mean they don’t go well together.

Anyway you can use data to nudge users. For example, Google can change search result orders. They can promote one company/research/ideology/party to the top and demote others.

Finding out where certain people are important for law enforcement or press.

Stores give out free wifi to track your MAC address and see where you go in stores. They sell this data, use it to track theives, or use it for better product placement.
