If the product has issues it should be legally required to either have a warranty extension, recall, or both. Heck they shouldn’t be selling more units until it’s figured out and patched.
It’s absurd to say: “it might have problems but we’ll keep selling it as is”.
We have safety recalls. There should be product degregation recalls.
Sometimes I wonder: for a PC sitting behind a consumer router with no extra ports forwarded: How important are OS updates?
I mean if everything works for you on this version, why rock the boat? The idea is supposed to be security, fixes, and new features. We can throw out new features and fixes if you’re happy with everything as is.
Security is very buzzy and kind of vague to this type of user, but they also probably don’t tread far off from popular (likely … hopefully … safe) websites.
So hmm, if not accessing unsafe websites, and hidden behind a router NAT, and with physical safety of home, I wonder if the benefit of rocking the boat (and getting more ads and crap) is worth it.
Like definitely risks are there for any internet connected device but weighing it would be interesting. Someone in infosec should do a real analysis of this situation.
Maybe tasker can do something like this. In theory I could tell tasker to POST every 5 minutes or so, then use that data… hmm I guess this is the next thing to try. Thanks!
Edit. Just found this gem: https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/13i9p3l/dev_tasker_62_beta_were_back_in_business_i_can/
I think this would do exactly what I want! Will give it a whirl in the coming days.
Thanks folks for ideas, but I was talking about just basically ‘hiding’ the conversations by pushing them to the ‘archive’ folder. (I already backup with SMS Backup/Restore).
I decided to write a quick/dirty (no guarantees) tampermonkey script to do exactly what I wanted. If anyone else needs something similar, they can take a look here: https://gist.github.com/csm10495/47c900978866770cdff934f6cd783665
I hope we get better content. I’m really tired of all the posts on the frontpage being meta. Like i had to scroll to find anything about the student loan news. I go to reddit and boom I get actual content still.
… i want conversations about things that aren’t lemmy or reddit. … memes are cool but man most of the frontpage that isn’t meta is memes. … Fingers crossed it gets better soon.
You’d be surprised to hear that most software devs i talk to think the benefits of ai are overrated. The problem is the bubble keeps growing and growing.
… also leads to worse for all in the meantime.
We’re getting it shoved down our throats too. We get asked to use ai to enhance things… that no one wanted fixed with ai.
