I’m curious what drives you to record videos using the glass. As opposed to a phone/camera, the POV is very restricted as you cannot move vertically (unless kneel/crawl and look up/down ofc). So I’m sure it cannot be called a replacement to a traditional phone/camera.

So what is your motivation to use it ?

Interesting. A few questions, if I may.

Are you running ollama in the same system as the one consuming it ? If yes does it always run in background ? Does it impact performance of other applications when it runs in background?

I’m not a windows fan boy, in fact I haven’t used one in years, and have no intentions to.

But this is a weird way of thinking about MS shenanigans.

• Hate it or like it, windows update is still an update to your system, to fix security vulnerabilities even. I wish they had implemented it in a user friendly way. But it is NOT a thing that disrupts you with ill intent as you mentioned here.
• That is a task manager running some process. But no indication on what the process is !
• Enabled by default is an horrible design decision no matter who does it. I agree on that. But this is NOT unauthorised access. You signed up for it when you decided to use windows.

Again I don’t like MS. Hate them for their bad decisions, but don’t hate them by misrepresenting them.

Missed opportunity to re-brand clippy

Honestly at first read, the paper feels like a bunch of whining text to prove a point the author believes in without any alternate proposal.

Isn’t web scraping copying ?

Come on. Stop reading the comments. Go check the article.

No longer a minor, but still a kid for not understanding it !

What’s the point of this feature ? If it were not evil, what problem would it solve ? How often do you go to your PC and think “what was that thing I saw but never thought to create a bookmark or save the link/image”.

Even if people use it, it would be for something they missed because they thought it was unimportant or didn’t interest them, which is a very rare use case.

And still it is a highlight feature !

I wonder if it is lack of ideas or lack of commitment to create a good idea , given a technology, when these kinds of useless features are launched.

Only a stupid person would compare rocket fuels to brain implants. Are you Elon ?

Also one or a few people turning it off doesn’t matter much. The tech giants still get their demographic statistics from the ones who haven’t (which is the larger percentage of the population). You could be spending money on things based on targeted ads for your demographic.

In other words, you are creeped out about wondering what they could do with your personal data if you turn it on. But you should be even more creeped out about how your daily decisions are already influenced by them using others data

A wasted opportunity to natively support these features and make the user base happy.

Or just be clear about it - Porn mode.

Not sure if you are talking about your country or generalising all over the world. What you said is not true where I’m from, if the latter.

Stadia was destined to fail though. I still remember the key note in which it was introduced. The CEO started with the lines "I don’t play many games, but … ".

I stopped using reddit after they dropped the bomb on the devs and I’m not a fan of the company.

I understand the hatred towards them, but this is definitely expected from a company like reddit, and any other social media for that matter. As users we must be aware that we don’t own the content in their platform.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the same story comes from Instagram tomorrow, though I suppose there will be a bigger outcry then.

Where did I say it prevents monopolies ?

Where I’m from if it goes public I’m sure the govt is going to take advantage of it with piss poor speeds. When it’s private, at least there are companies competing with decent speeds even though it’s expensive. It’s a choice between the lesser of two evils.
