Super serious job of CEO for three different billion dollar companies is so time consuming that he has spare time "to work" as a head of a government department, as well.
This makes me think that maybe CEOs don't actually do that much.
That's were the real AI job losses will be.
A chat bot agent to deal with most of managers concerns, and a dashboard of tickets for those the agent can't reply to. The last remaining CEo sits Infront of their dashboard and views tickets, get background and relevant info, and makes a decision based on what's presented.
Seriously, imagine 1 person having the responsibility, being well compensated, and has literally everything presented in front of them like some homer-simpson-working-from-home type thing.
So many VP and CEO salaries could be saved, and let people get back to actually doing useful work.
I'd hate to be the AI "prompt engineer" that spends their day typing "you are a CEO of a fortune 500 company..." type system prompt, tho
Even before... all this... anyone still on Twitter was an asshole.
Stop visiting the Nazi bar.
Just stop using Twitter. I'm so glad I erased myself from the Internet and I would encourage others to do the same. Thought crimes are actually going to be a thing, because America is now fully fascist. Some people will find out what it's like to live in a fully authoritarian country. Don't be one of them if you can avoid it.
Twitter has been a right wing revenge honeypot since melon head took over.
whatever data anyone has (google, facebook, your employer, your bank, the credit bureaus) basically belongs to trump's nsa, fbi, cia, etc now
And the stasi! Don't forget the stasi!
Worth remembering that if you send something to an external website, what they do with it is completely outside of your control.
Trust no company with your information.
I post photos online, and despite the fact that the platforms (Tumblr, and I think Pixelfed too?) scrub exif data, I do it manually anyway.
Pro tip:
exiftool -overwrite_original -All= file.jpgIf it’s a photo on my phone, I have location tagging turned off… but I definitely take a screenshot of the photo anyway. The lower quality doesn’t matter to me if I can easily just remove EXIF data.
Can twatter app not also track location, and use mic & cam at will?
If you’re still hanging out with Nazis you deserve whatever happens to you.
Keep in mind that we're in an echo chamber here. We see and read stuff that most people don't care to know about, and we communicate amongst ourselves without considering the people who are outside of our echo chamber. In the same way people last week were googling about Biden dropping out of the election, a lot of people don't know what's happening with a lot of things around them. It doesn't make them bad people, just ignorant.
I did.
I'm on Mastodon and Bluesky. My family is the only reason I'm still on Facebook.
Interesting, I remember years of libs ruthlessly mocking right-wing users (and the lefties who agreed) for thinking Twitter and other social media was dangerous. Now all of a sudden we all agree social media is dangerous because the guy who owns one of the services is openly a shill rather than quietly like Dorsey was?
I'm a lefty with a working memory who knows authoritarians are not to be trusted no matter what side they claim to be on. It seems like the most obvious position a person can hold but people are struggling with even this...
Now all of a sudden we all agree social media is dangerous because the guy who owns one of the services is openly a shill rather than quietly like Dorsey was?
Yes, people are openly concerned about the world’s richest man making active threats that threaten democracy more than your made up perceived bias. Garbage take.
I guess I at least agree that we were naïve with regards to Dorsey and way too slow to realize Twitter was a threat. Looking back now it seems like it was bound to go to hell eventually, and if we look beyond the west it already went to hell a long time ago. And even in the west the tipping point was arguably years before Musk bought Twitter, it was just that people were too addicted to accept how dangerous it was.
So I guess you could criticize people for only realizing now how fucked up Twitter is. Then again, better late than never.
I hope I live to see it turn into a soulless pile of bots reposting porn clips for D-grade advertising agencies with no human users.
Facebook messenger. Every keystroke is recorded. Go ahead, as for your data from Facebook. Every keystroke is logged.
Facebook Messenger is the worst way to be communicating right now.
Now is the time to migrate yourself and your people to WIRE or Signal. Your messenger people will likely only move once, if ever.
One way to encourage this is by simply refusing to be available by text on anything but WIRE or Signal. They will eventually give in and use it. You can still FaceTime, and for free, via Signal or WIRE.
No idea why anyone that's not racist, sexist, or has a reasonable level of intelligence is still on that site.
My friend was way into it for news directly from journalists and had been on the site since the beginning. As soon as Trump's victory was secure he deleted his account and moved to BlueSky.
Time to leave that site to the deplorables and move on.
TBF, any of the big players are rife to capitulate to fed demands with the admin changes. Keep that crap out of Facebook, X, Google, Microsoft, unencrypted chat.
If you don't think every major US site has been freely giving your data to the government for 20+ years, you're painfully naive. US law has never required a warrant for this type of thing due to the Third Party Doctrine.
What is EXIF data? Location and time stamp? How do you remove that from photos and videos?
Or for a one-off, copy the image in one program and paste it into another. Then it's just pixels.
Exif data can contain everything from the make/model of device used to take a picture, to a gps location of where the picture was taken.
Removing that information depends on what you're using to do it, but can be done with an exif editing tool in pretty much any OS I'm aware of.
Edit: Autocorrect is a pita.
I'm on android, is there software that you would suggest using?
I don't know if there are apps that can't be trusted or take your images or data.
Metadata contained within the image file.
Using the one from this post this is what I can see (exif data has been stripped or wasn't there):
Here's another example where the data is plain as day:
For techies: would opening my photo in MS Paint and doing "save as png" remove exif data?
Maybe but I wouldn't trust MS to do the job even if it appeared true. Use a reputable open source tool made for the job if you can
It is metadata that can include what type of camera took the photo and precise location from GPS. I open photos in GIMP and then export them, taking care to uncheck the exif and a couple other metadata options.
One way is to take a screenshot of the photo. Or load and save in a different format. Or use image sharing sites that remove metadata (imgur used to be the standard one, not sure what's good now)
If you're on Windows, right click an image, and go into the properties. There should be a Details tab where you'll find a bunch of text fields that can be edited.
There's also data that doesn't even show in there. For example, your camera/phone could be set up to save its GPS coordinates in EXIF so that you can keep track of where the pictures were taken. Naturally, unless it's stripped from the file, that data can be seen by anyone who has access to the file.
Most image editing software should be able to delete any EXIF data, but there is also software that can mass-edit all of that stuff to simplify the process.
Scrambled Exif on F-Droid to wipe it.
Photo, share, choose Scrambled Exif, wait two seconds, share screen comes back, share with friend, and it sends the picture but not the privacy violations.
I made a twitter account that I never used and I deactivated it yesterday. I didn't have to, but I did anyway.
There’s no reason to have anything older than 12 months on Twitter, just auto delete anything older.
Even 6 months should be good.
If you’re the type who uses Twitter as a blogging platform, grab that shit and self-host it.
There no reason Twitter would need to actually delete data from their backend.
You can also replace the content, depending on how their system is done.
Also we do have GDPR and CPPA if you want to go nuclear on your data
If you are the type that thinks any of the for profit tech companies are deleting your data I've got a bridge to sell you.
It’s not for the companies, it’s for the keyboard warriors looking for dirt when they get angry.
