for why using it “responsibly” is super hard, even if you’re an expert. We’re hardwired to take mental shortcuts, so we might not even realize we’re using heuristics or falling for cognitive biases when fact checking the AI.

but used responsibly

That’s like the most incredibly hard part of all of this. Everything is aligned so that you don’t use it responsibly. And it’s really hard to guard against this.

Just a few days ago, I was pairing with a coworker and he was using Claude to do a bunch of stuff. He didn’t check any of it. I thought he was gonna check stuff before pushing stuff… And nope! I said, “Wait, shouldn’t we review the changes to make sure they’re correct?” And he said, “Nah, it’s probably fine. I trust it. Plus, even if it’s wrong, we’ll just blame the AI and we can just fix it later.”

…

Yes, checking the work would have negated all of the “time saved” and he was being a lazy fuck.

People who don’t like coding or engineering use this and they are not interested in using this responsibly.

I currently use the official audiobookshelf app. It’s really slow and buggy for me. Every time I open it, it says it’s disconnected from the server. Then I have to click a button for it to reconnect.

What makes you say that?

They pulled the Signal messages from an iPhone… https://www.forbes.com/sites/larsdaniel/2026/04/10/fbi-pulled-deleted-signal-messages-from-an-iphone-without-breaking-encryption/

I would use a passphrase instead of a password. Make it a meaningful phrase and it’ll be hard to forget.

I had a password that I committed to muscle memory once… and then my muscle memory disappeared and my brain memory didn’t remember it… and… it was not good… 😅

Passphrase 1000% I’ve never had trouble remembering my passphrase.

Master Password hint be extremely obvious

Given that Bitwarden is on the cloud, where the whole world can access it, I’d say no…

you could set up an emergency access

Oooh, huh. TIL https://bitwarden.com/help/emergency-access/

Just ordered a Sony Xperia with SailfishOS! I hope you’re right! 🤞

(FYI just in case: SailfishOS is NOT an Android fork! I didn’t realize this until recently.)

What’s the point of YouTube premium again? uBlock Origin works on laptops, tablets, and phones. Smart Tube works on TVs.

Is there some live sports thing that it’s bundled with or something?

I switched from Spotify to Navidrome+local radio. When I’m in the car, it’s been 100% radio recently.

I actually like a lot of the music on my local radio stations. Yes, it’s 10 songs on a loop, but they gradually change out the 10 songs. So 6 months from now it’s slightly different 10 songs. I also get to spend more time with each song, which lets me learn the lyrics or notice different parts of the song better.

Yes, there are ads and talking, but it’s not all bad. I like the ads for local businesses, restaurants, or events. The talking gets annoying sometimes, but most of the time it’s fine or, dare I say, even enjoyable. When the ads/talking gets too much, I just change the station. There are like 4-5 stations I cycle through. If they’re all annoying, then I just turn the radio down for a minute.

I also discover new songs from the radio that later I add to Navidrome.

Overall, pretty happy not paying for Spotify and not having to use my phone.

Tailscale is just more reliable and mature in my experience

What sort of issues have you run into? I’m currently on Tailscale, but was considering Netbird because it’s open source. (Also, I hate that Tailscale requires me to create an account with Big Tech to login.)

They seem pretty close in terms of features, at least in the simple cases.

Honestly, yeah. Lots of people in my town would probably be onboard and justify it. “This is a good thing because the radical left is crazy!”

OP, try PieFed! https://piefed.social/auth/register It’s actually pretty good. I’m surprised more people aren’t connecting to the Fediverse via PieFed. I recently jumped from Lemmy and PieFed.

And because this isn’t some corporate hellhole, you don’t get cutoff from Lemmy. Yay ActivityPub!

Can’t do that anymore

What is “that”? I just bought a Google TV and was able to install Projectivy Launcher fine?

Definitely not WebOS. I have an Nvidia Shield that runs Android TV, which is nice because there’s a wide selection of apps and you can install custom launchers, Tailscale, Jellyfin, SmartTube. The downside, as I recently learned, is that your parents probably will have a harder time switching between the TV’s native OS and the Shield.

So I recently got a Google TV, which is (just?) Android TV, and that allows me to install Tailscale and Jellyfin, but since it’s 1 system, it’s easier for some folks to use. I also installed Projectivy Launcher for my parents to get rid of the default ad-ridden launcher. I haven’t yet had time to try to install SmartTube, but I think I read it’s possible…

Curious to learn more about https://plasma-bigscreen.org/ I didn’t know about that. Thanks!

Yeah, not handled well. They’re doing slimy corpo bullshit.

On the other hand, I like that they’re open source and don’t block stuff like vaultwarden.

I hope they can take the extra money and make the product better. Cuz I definitely don’t love Bitwarden, but it’s a better alternative than 1Password.

I thought the Iranians specifically chose Legos because the US bombed a girl’s primary school. Seemed like a fitting way to fight back.

Yes, it should be Nucleus. Them calling it PiedPiper is a propaganda campaign to try to earn good will from people. Fuck Google locking down Android.
