It’s a glitch that it rolled out today instead of next week.

That or the dumb fucks in charge of these companies still think it’s the 90’s where everyone thought that machines would suddenly gain sentience.

No I’m not surprised at all. This is necessary for any kind of auto save and auto complete. Not happy about my shit being stored in China, but “collects every keystroke” isn’t really news anymore.

If you’re worried about this kind of behavior, don’t use any website with auto save or auto complete, period.

Definitely. If you’ve got an old car keep it alive as long as you can

The problem isn’t e.g. CarPlay, it’s the car itself, which is usually entirely custom.

For example with Infiniti they have their own Android based OS and the only way to get a new head unit in the car is to have a full emulator. Otherwise you lose access to anything that the head unit controls.

I don’t know if open source custom car roms will be a thing until we have an LLM that’s smart enough to automate porting the rom to different models of car.

The car has its own power generation though so it can do a lot more without risk of killing the battery. They can record and stream the whole time you use it.

The AI was doing that meme

“Humans have horses. Don’t ride them. Are they stupid?”

Oh that’s good to know. I’m gonna go pull a laser designator warning off of a wrecked tank.

But I work at companies and I would like my info to not be hacked. Their fuck ups affect employees and customers

Companies can’t even be convinced to have longer passwords on their wifi. And open office plans mean every computer faces a window

At an office building where other people are inside the building with you? This is going to cause problems if it gets cheap enough

What a strange response.

So how do we fix this? Dumb nerds never think about the consequences of their creations.

Damn that sucks, I’m sorry :/

If possible you should always try to have the email for your real name to use for business and government stuff.

Mfw end to end can be compromised at the end.

That said, they should fix this anyway

I guess we complain as loud and as often as we can. And give our money to companies that support Firefox. Thankfully most of my coworkers, at every company I’ve worked at, use Firefox use Firefox so the website usually works because they needed it to to do their job

Prop 8 was also awhile ago so it’s possible he changed his mind. People forget how common it was to be shitty on this issue in the 2000’s. The public consensus only flipped in like 2013.

I have no evidence either way though

That said, Brave is worse software than Firefox imo so it’s a moot point.

Not really. I’ve gotten plenty of bugs fixed on other sites by just sending them a screenshot of something going wrong in Firefox. For the big companies like Facebook though you’re entirely correct

Because all the web devs optimize for chrome because they dominate the market. If more people use Firefox then devs will start to care about performance in it

(You’re a dev so I assume you know this. This comment is mainly for other people)

Brave is literally a grift. Too many people are falling for it.

Wait shit you’re right. I’m too used to the mobile links that have the ID after the slash

On YouTube links, delete anything after the ?

Someone post the next website

I love your username

The government can already identify you, and your identity is easy to steal. Making a better ID system just removes the identity theft issue.

The other nice thing would be you could use the id number instead of your name so you can stop giving your PII out to every business. Just “here’s my ID number, bill my insurance, you don’t need anything else.”

SSN’s main issues are that it’s hard to change, and it’s predictable. If they know your date of birth and where you were born then they can reliably determine your SSN. And once your SSN is out, it’s very difficult to change unless your identity was already stolen.

I have no idea why you just asking a question got down voted.

We definitely do need one. Right now it’s a hodge podge of crap that wasn’t meant to be an identifier and it makes identity theft easy, and our privacy isn’t even being protected because we still have an SSN and tax ID.

Having worked in the medical space, a lack of identifier is actually a huge issue that causes problems for people daily, especially people changing their names for whatever reason.

I’m gonna be real, we do need an actual id system in the US. Right now we treat social security numbers like one, but they’re extremely insecure.

We’re going to have a number either way, may as well have one that isn’t as easy for scammers to steal.

Android head unit that doesn’t have mobile data. You’ll basically have a full phone in your car but it doesn’t have any way to connect to Google
