Why do you find it so cool? Genuinely asking. I find this technology repulsive.

It's blatant regulatory capture.

There is no room for nuance. AI is capitals access to our labour. It's evil. The end.

I don't think it's a tired argument. It's the everyman trying to regain their time while being constantly reigned in harder by tech giants. You sacrifice convenience and privacy, so you kind of always feel somewhat like an asshole buying this stuff. Mostly because you have to. Many people don't move off of things because of the inherent time sacrifice and potential for future time sinks from things not working correctly and the knowledge required to troubleshoot it. If you make it easy people will switch, articles like this are the beginning of the right direction.

For example I moved off cloud services for my media in favour of fixing up a $25 BDP-CX960 400-disc bluray player with a few bucks in parts and a few weekends. When someone complains to me about modern tech, I can't in earnest recommend it though because its not easy. But I can write about it or tell them about it to expose them to the mindset more. Articles like this help IMO.

How about it only works when I'm smoking?

I've combined my scrolling with my smoking to get two birds stoned at once. I'm currently trying to combine working out, scrolling, and smoking, for ultimate productivity.

Of course, but presumably if you're launching something you want people to adopt it so spend some time on documentation.

That's incredible. Had do idea this existed. I'm listening to it right now and I can fully understand it as polack! I might actually want to learn this as it'll help me communicate to all my different slavic friends.

It's the principle.

I refuse to learn esperanto, sorry.

I'm a seasoned developer and I frequently come across OSS projects where I spend half an hour or more in "how the fuck do I actually use this"-land. A lot of developers need to take the mindset of writing the documentation for their non-tech grandma from the ground up.
