This one is tricky, because Lemmy hates both Musk and AI.
Let them fight lol
Musk banning Apple devices with how popular iPhones are to use twitter would hurt Musk more than it would hurt either Apple or OpenAI so it just sounds like a win win.
He's saying he'll ban them from his company, like employees in offices. He's not saying he'll ban users from using Apple devices.
I can hate both things, and this move isn't good for either one of them so I consider it an absolute win.
Lemmy seems to hate any new technology, I've noticed.
Personally I've found GPT to be extremely useful as a search engine replacement, especially the implementations that cite their sources. That way you can actually fact check instead of wondering if it's a hallucination. It helps me rely on reddit a lot less to find answers. I love that it's being integrated with Windows. Makes finding files a lot easier, even easier than using Everything search.
Lemmy also hates crypto. They call it a scam, despite the fact that it's now being traded on the stock market (BTC and soon to be ETH). I turned $12k into $36k, just by buying small amounts of BTC every paycheck since COVID started. I buy everything with crypto; there are Visa debit cards you can use to spend it. Crypto gave me enough financial wiggle room that I no longer worry about losing my job. Yet it's a "scam". Give me a fucking break.
Lemmy hates HDR. Every time I mention the reason why I haven't switched to Linux yet is because of poor HDR support in KDE, I get ridiculed. "Why would you want your monitor brighter and more colorful? Mine's bright and colorful enough", failing to realize just how much more realistic "brighter and more colorful" makes an image appear. With a proper 1000 nit OLED display, it feels more like looking out of a window than staring at a monitor. Like going from a black and white to color TV. One of those things that you can't go back on once you get used to it.
And although not a new technology, per se don't even get me started on how much Lemmy hates cars. But I feel like I've ranted on long enough so I'm just going to stop talking here before my inbox blows up.
I think I've mentioned the HDR issue in every comment I've made about my attempts to daily drive Linux, but I've never seen anyone get mad about it. It's also not the make it or break it issue that's keeping me from switching full-time though.
Most of the comments about HDR on Linux is
I've never seen anyone become mad, both on reddit and Lemmy
Seems pretty straightforward to me.
I think AI can be good its just being fumbled so hard right now
Are you saying Musk isn't AI?
