@lily this is I think where the important criticism of AI really lies - not a narrow focus on some specific tech, but refusing to budge on the older, more important battle over "the cloud"

@lily @terminaltilt I think it's hilarious that they are still trying this shit when they haven't fixed or addressed the very fundamental issue at hand.
Internet access. It's not cheap, it's not easy to get, it's not available every where, especially at reasonable speeds and has more outages than there are back orders on insulin!

Good luck with that. People can computer with 2 strings and a bit of sticky tape if they want to (yes I exaggerate hugely). The fundamentals are known. Mostly computing got physically smaller, which then allowed for more bloat. But a logic gate is a logic gate, even if you make it out of matchsticks, or bottletops or whatever. -

@lily @terminaltilt Yes that's where it's moving towards. Apple and amazon both want you to use their cloud, hough microsoft has went further to make it default for everything, even your login. As amazon has big cloud business....I'm sure Bezos is all for it. I recently moved my cloud to self hosted nextcloud. I do still have icloud...but that is more i device convenience on some files and Apple one for my wife and I to stream apple music and few other things it provides.

Nothing ever changes. In feudal times you gave 50% of your produce to the land lord.. essentially you had a land subscription to the land owner. The rich will always make their power work one way or the other to extracting wealth from the poor.
