This is different than my understanding of Google and Apple. Could you provide links to sources showing what Apple collects about its users?

Yes

Darwin. Their BSD and the foundation of MacOS and therefore all the current OSes they produce.

MDM would have been used regardless of OS.

I see what you’re saying. I agree that users should be able to remove device locks remotely. You can with iPhones. Hopefully that moves to all devices.

I still prefer this to not having the lock at all.

Your post details how it isn’t possible for IT professionals to wipe a Mac without the consent of the owner’s account. How is that security theater?

Your computer generates two keys. One to encrypt a message. One to decrypt the message. The encrypt key is public. The decrypt key is private. Your computer shares the public key with YouTube. The private key is never shared.

YouTube does the same thing for your computer.

Your computer will have YouTube’s public key and your computer’s private key…

Your computer will be able to encrypt messages to send to YouTube that only YouTube will be able to decrypt. Even your computer will not be able to decrypt these messages after it has encrypted them using YouTube’s public key.

Since the decryption keys are never shared they can’t be snooped. That is why it is only possible for an attacker to encrypt new messages but not read any messages from either sender.

Exactly. It isn’t hard to spin up an LLM.

I agree corporations will lobby for a legalized monopoly so they’re able to extract rent.

Generative AI will only grow to replace more and more labor. Labor is most corporations largest expense. Participating in the economy as labor is how most people make their living.

If AI replaces labor, regardless of who controls it, it will change the world’s economy by putting most people out of a job.

We are in the infancy of generative AI. For you it has already replaced an entire sector of the workforce: artists. For others it has replaced them wholesale. For others it just assists. Hollywood was trying to legally own actors voices and likenesses to replace them.

This technology is not standing still. It will be great at a lot of things in the future. It could be next month. It could be next year. It could be in a decade. Whenever it arrives for your job it will be cheaper than you. There will be no going backward on this technology.

Is that a bullet from a BB gun?

I suspect next year’s base will have a revised version of this year’s processor. The iPhone 15 Pro has an A17 Pro. This is the first A Series chip with a “Pro” label. I don’t expect something “Pro” to make it into the base model.

What will change between the A17 Pro and the A17? Who knows. It might include the upgraded USB controller though.

Threatening to have his kid taken away and the other officers letting him arrest Guessford even though they know Guessford did nothing wrong. In fact the cops destroyed Guessford’s property.

Horrible.

I use Athlytic daily as a Whoop replacement. The free version gives me my recovery score. It knows my body better than I do.

Slopes for skiing.

Overcast for podcasts.

I used to use Strava for activity tracking but now use the built in Workout app.

Liking it so far. A social network is only as good as its community. The community is small but high quality. I’m excited to see Lemmy grow.
