You already can have that :) Ironfox (Firefox Librewolf-style android fork) is the easiest option (uBlock origin integrated), but you can also use the normal firefox browser with full extension support.

Yeah that seems about right.

The ELIZA effect, now proven in blood.

How long until someone creates a plausibly convincing fake of these drones and uses them to perform a false flag or massacre with no chance of culpability?

I doubt you will find many religious people on lemmy.

And for the sake of providing an entertaining answer, DOOM had the most intriguing philosophy: shooting demons with a shotgun.

This, 1000% this.

Former education IT contractor, it’s majority chromebooks now, with physical books generally being either stationed inside classrooms or held in long-term storage “just in case”. (USA west coast classrooms)

The main issue is that Chromebooks, especially ones used for public schools, are largely “built to cost”, and are locked down with frustrating amounts of bloatware and software/network restrictions, and are usually beaten to shit by the previous year’s student body (about 40% of the chromebooks I looked at had to be sent to “reclamation” because they were not worth repairing nor were usable for spare parts).

When I was going to high school, I bought a second hand chromebook off eBay and installed a Linux distro (forget which one now), and it was an amazing experience, with a much easier time accessing materials and completing assignments compared to my peers. These machines really can be great, but if left to the school’s requirements for being “locked down”, and handled by careless people, they’re guaranteed to suck.

Backpack for me was a lot lighter in high school than middle school tho XD

When RIF died, Voyager became the new forum app for me.

Ai bait used to be believable…

Yeah, but you can’t circumvent this on iOS. It’s incredibly easy to spoof information on android.

Because they pay apple? I’d imagine that’s obvious. It’s more useful metrics for the developer. I would be surprised if they didn’t tier the information access about users behind closed doors.

Android’s not perfect, but at least permissions can be set per app, you can root your device, or install GrapheneOS or Lineage to bypass this crap entirely.

Welp, goodbye all non-corporate RND in almost all scientific development.

Talk about a short-sighted admin.

Still more credibility if you cite it rather than copy+paste XD

(And we can laugh at the poster who decided that was a valid source)

In US English classes at any level above middle school, the importance of finding valid sources and providing citations is emphasized, although that’s mainly for essays and the like.

I could imagine it would be possible to adapt that mindset towards social media as well. Provide your sources, so you can prove you understand what you are saying. The foundations are there, they just need to be applied.

Linking to sources, that is a big one. Even something as honest as “I read it off this Wikipedia page [link]” goes a long way in showing that the poster is not pulling an idea out of their ass.

I will always prefer having debates where both sides cite their information, even if there isn’t a satisfying agreement at the end. Plus, faulty sources can be debunked when more eyes are able to scrutinize it.
