intergalactic tour guide: now if you look to your left, you’ll see the natural habitats of the Xpheno217 species. This is the only location in the whole universe they can live. And to your right, a brand new residential community fit with Walmart and their very own Chick-fil-A.
Something something, capitalism innovates and Integrates technology … something something, a “one-dimensional” society … something something, gadgets keep people docile … something something, technology serving corporate/military power … something something, higher military spending driving technological innovation … something something, capitalist accumulation requires expanding markets/resources … something something, military power instrumentalized to secure economic advantage globally … something something, technological/ military capacity dominate others … something something, cycles of innovation, capitalization and domination continue while underlying imperatives unchallenged.
There was once a time when people educated themselves not because they wanted a particular job in the economy, but because they saw value in education and wanted to participate in the human tradition of advancing the specie’s ability to understand and use nature. You didn’t need school to be a blacksmith, for example, but perhaps just an apprenticeship (experience).
There’s a point to be made here, about how this degrades the value of education. It’s great for capitalism, making survival—or “living well”—contingent on qualifications derived from paid education. But what have we lost in this process? It feels, to me at least, like we’ve created a culture where education is a mere lineitem on a checklist. How might that change what education is, what it’s expected to be, and what sort of innovation comes from it?

There you go. Local, serverless passkeys in the software of your choice.
Not to kiss the boot of the Tim Cook led, fascist supporting corporation that is Apple. However, the IOS ecosystem does this. That “Ask App Not To Track” is deceptive in that it actually prevents a lot of data collection, though the “Ask” portion is hinged on the fact that Apple can not control everything an app does on their server side. You can configure, via your device settings, to always and automatically respond with “Yes” to this regardless of which app is asking.
You describe a future with truer security guarantees, not a façade of trust and legal obscurities. A future where the consumer stands up to the bully by preventing their extortion, not by trusting the bully to fall in suit. That’s a future I can get behind, it sounds much less volatile. It sounds like consumers have some smidge of control for once.
Lest we forget, the platforms we build and use should prioritize security and transparency. It’s not like everyone will need to be an expert on protocols for secure peer to peer communication.

Will I fall into this obvious trap for discussing the grotesque volume of time spent on the Olive Garden app? No. No i will not. … fuck.
(Cries in Big Mac sauce.)
Sorry for asking, but what are the chances this gets an IOS release?

We stand atop, adjacent to, within, underneath, and around foreign surveillance. But stand for? You bet your momma there’s no room for that.
We understand the universe as complex. Honestly though, I wonder if a True understanding of how the universe works—from the fundamentals of which all things may emerge—is rather simple.
For example: within U0, you would control the spacetime simulation of U1. Therefore, what could be a single moment of simulation by U0s standards, could be experienced as trillions of years from within the perspective of U1. They control the frame rate.
They could simulate the fundamentals, fast forward to the end of the universe, and here we are somewhere in the very early part of that having no idea someone hit fast forward because everything is relative for us.
The open source community could really shove it to Apple and Google by figuring that out.
Last I recall, a lot of mobile hardware requires proprietary firmware and drivers that make OSS work here really difficult.
I’m supposed to be watching Haunted Hotel right now. It’s on, but here we are…
PC gamers under 30 would be considered a significant minority compared to other <30yos?
Hmm… I don’t know. 30-50yos are raising kids right now. That’s a whole lot of 0-21orso year olds living in the bracket where people have PCs.
Then you have college students filling the gap, who likely have a laptop at least.
