I’ve always theorized that it should be possible to have multiple wake words with different functions, some invisible to the user.

It has to be “always listening” for the wake word to function at all, so it clearly is doing that, what’s to stop them from having another wake word like “bomb” which it then starts recording and sends to the NSA for instance, or even “clip the last 30 seconds” like an xbox could be feasible. Or even have corporations pay to get on the “list” of secret trigger words, like Toyota pays and it hears “Toyota” or “new car” and starts serving ads for 2026 Celicas (I wish lol). It doesn’t even have to send much data back for that, just “ohp, said word, check box to join ‘toyota’ ad group.”

I’m not saying they do that, but like, it sounds totally easily possible and I can’t be the first person that had this idea, why wouldn’t they?

Hell to be fair I don’t trust most of the brands I do recognize either lol.

The problem there however is it would disable your electronics too though, and everyone is using them.

I’ve heard tell of this, I’ve been wondering something. Can you change your wifi password, give it the new one for setup, and then disconnect and restore your typical password and continue to use the TV, or does it need an active connection?

Probably why they got hacked,

Which time lmao, weren’t there like 4 gigaleaks?

FedoraKDE, or Mint.

Either way you’ll probably be able to search and find answers to your problems (and answers for ubuntu may work), and with mint you know your friend can possibly help if need be, and they work well.

No u

I’ve had that happen with one of those exact same cards and it was a bad card, could be your issue too.

Sure a spreadsheet could work too, but yeah I also clearly don’t keep track lol.

I suppose that makes sense, honestly I just go with “more/less than last time” lol. If I went more in depth with it I’d probably use a pen and paper.

I can’t help, I wish I could, but I’m curious. Why a smart scale? Why not just any dumb scale from Bed Bath and Beyond?

Oh, you mean lemmy! Lol are those losers who post links to the communist wiki as a rebuttal to everything still at it? I blocked them years ago.

That may be true tbh, I’m more techy so I can’t yet but maybe for someone who isn’t they could.

Keep at it for sure! If this place really ends up thriving and getting bigger for niche interests and stuff it’s in no small part because of your efforts to do so! I genuinely appreciate it, even for stuff I’m not personally interested in.

That’s good to know, I’ll keep an eye on it, thanks! But tbh the reality is that .ml is still too integral to defed yet, until your decentralization efforts take hold (and btw I try to sub to the other communities whenever I see you post one I’m interested in and will sometimes unfollow the .ml one if I can, thanks for all the recommendations!)

But another question, “are you ok with sitting at the bar with nazis, but they’re wearing red shirts with a hammer and sickle on them and espousing the same propensity for murder?”

Lemmy is fine with murder and genocide so long as you wear the right shirt while doing it.

An idea being “bad” is power agnostic. If I want to blow up orphanages, wanting to do so is bad whether I’m the president or a homeless dude, the ability to follow through may change with power, but the ability to follow through isn’t what makes “wanting to blow up orphanages” bad, the idea itself is bad.

Thing is you never will see that here. Even if those people are here (more reasonable right wing people are here in fact), they speak up less (typically once, before they learn what this place is) because the second you say “actually I don’t want to murder all landlords, my old landlady is so nice, she baked us brownies and let us put on illegal punk shows in the basement” you’re called a literal nazi that deserves death for having compassion for a nice old woman. So all you see are the ardent conservatives that are here to fight, not the reasonable ones that learn to just roll their eyes and block anyone with an @hexbear uname to save themselves the trouble.

Honestly I’m kinda one of those on linux, but not in a “it’s morally imperative that you do” sort of way, in a “it’s a good idea to eat fruits and vegetables” or “you should leave your abusive partner” sort of way. It’s just better. I’m not going to call anyone a Nazi for using windows, but also if someone is complaining about windows doing windows things, often the solution is “linux doesn’t do that.”

It’s not too far off already, considering .ml, grad, and hexbear’s propensity to advocate for violence against others for being “liberals.”

Basically it’s already a nazi bar with some red paint and a star on the door. The people who I told about lemmy all left pretty quick because of it and I’ve stopped recommending it to people entirely.

Tbf, that’s by iDesign. They want you to stay in their iEcosystem and spend more money on their products, if they allowed interoperability you might say go with Linux instead of Mac, or something. So take out a loan and buy another iProduct, good iConsumer!
