It’s because CEOs don’t play cyberpunk, but they did try chatgpt and got an immediate boner thinking about all the people they could lay off.

That’s the scary thing. It can easily create more code than it can understand, and do it faster than human understanding can keep up with.

Furthermore, a peer review process is planned, through which the consortium members will mutually check and certify their operating systems and smartphone or tablet models. “This is intended to create transparency and replace trust with traceability.”

Still doesn’t sound very open.

I should be able to tell my bank to only trust devices running an OS signed by the grapheneos key, and more importantly I should be able to tell them to trust an OS signed by my key.

Edit: I don’t mean to shit on this too hard. It might be the best next step.

The difference now is the machine can churn out way more data (e.g. pull requests) than a human can ever deal with.

When buying a laptop in 2026, you really need to consider how easy it’s going to be to keep it running with parts you’ve scavenged from other road-warriors.

Google already refuse signing releases for GrapheneOS on the pixel.

Do you mean how you get a special boot screen implying you’re doing something sketchy?

Google signing things is not something we want. We want phones that don’t care if your OS is signed by Google, and banking apps that trust you to pick an OS.

Yeah, honestly this is the default car shape now and I hate it. At least the BYD looks like a big estate, which id much rather have.

I’m like this too. I can go back to a city I’ve been to once, years ago, and I know the way around. I remember the layout and location of my childhood friends houses, even when I don’t remember their names.

I’m terrible at remembering exact quotes from books, TV, etc, but I have pins in my mental map for where the scenes took place, even in fictional worlds.

Why do I feel good when I avoid stepping on the pavement cracks?

It’s one of the most mind blowing man-made things I’ve ever seen. The only thing I can think of that was similar to walking into it was walking into the building at Kennedy space centre with the Saturn V in it.

I was never as into Ween as some of my friends were, but The Mollusk is a masterpiece IMO.

It’s kinda like Mr Bungle - California. If you can casually make an album of pop music that good, you have my eternal respect, even if I never fully get into the less approachable work.
