«So does it matter how many questions you ask an AI chatbot, or AI search summaries you generate? Yes, but not as a tally of your sins. It doesnât matter whether each prompt costs the energy equivalent of nine seconds of television or nine days. Instead, what matters is that each prompt is a signal to the AI provider and its investors to grab more energy, period, from whatever source they can»
Great work by @dawnnafus about the "dispersal trick" of big tech et al.
According to Google, #Conversations_im is now also collecting usersâ email addresses.
Pretty much the exact same thing that happened to Quicksy about a month agoÂč is now also happening to Conversations.
An app update I submitted ~48 hours ago passed review without any issues. A subsequent update just now, which contained very minor bug fixes, was rejected because I failed to declare that Iâm collecting email addresses.
Iâm so tired of this bullshit.
In Julia Klöckner sieht unser Kolumnist Christoph Ruf einen klaffenden Gegensatz zwischen Substanz und Selbstbewusstsein â vielleicht sogar noch mehr als bei Helmut Kohl. Gespickt wird ihr Auftreten von politisch gefĂ€hrlichen rechts-links-Gleichsetzungen.

Habe kĂŒrzlich eine Websuche gemacht und ein Ergebnis von "EIKE" (AfD-nahes Fake-Klima-Institut) angezeigt bekommen.
So konnte ich es aussortieren.
Im "AI summary" wÀre das wohl einfach mit reingemixt worden.
"AI summaries" - nein. Einfach nein.

My #Fairphone 4 is draining battery like crazy over the past few months. Surely, I should buy a new battery for it soon (software says, a full charge is around 3350 mAh instead of 3900 mAh it had back in 2021 when I bought it), but this cannot be the only issue here...
Not using it at all drains around 2-3%/h and simply web browsing or a short YouTube video sometimes drains 30%/h (extrapolating). Sometimes, the device is warm even when I haven't used it for hours. The Energy-consumption settings page lists cellular connection as the top consumer next to display (when using the phone). That is, even when the device sits motionless at a spot with perfect 4G or 5G connectivity. It is only bearable in energy-saving mode (1%/h).
I've been researching online, and it looks like a bunch of people have that issue. People are speculating it is a non-functional deep-sleep in some circumstances. I wonder if a factory reset (or switch to #LineageOS?) could help.
Did anyone have similar experience with #FP4 or even other #Android devices?
Hereâs a little tip if youâre using (the latest version of) Helix Editor:
Add the following keybinding to your config (if you donât use Ctrl+b for page up, that is; otherwise, change the key):
[keys.normal]
C-b = ":echo %sh{git blame -L %{cursor_line},+1 %{buffer_name}}"
Now, when you press Crtl+b in the editor, youâll see the git blame for the line youâre on. Very useful for seeing which commit the line last changed in and, for teams, who committed the change.

Bring back the #2000s vibe, listening to music on a fully offline device. Yes, I bought a freaking #MP3Player. Mainly for sports and commuting.
Comes with an old-school, awkward UI, a battery for almost three days non-stop listening to #music, Bluetooth and USB-C. đ€ About the size of my thumb, even a little bit smaller than that. Pretty neat!
