A little off-topic but important nonetheless: The issue I have has got to do with the River Class Destroyers that Irving Shipbuilding’s building for our Navy.

So everything from the radar to missile launch systems, literally everything is Lockheed Martin. One phone call from Trump to LM’s CEO and those destroyers will end up becoming fishing trawlers!

We’re like sitting ducks here.

Oh tysm! Will Calyx OS work on a Samsung Galaxy phone? Mine’s a cheap model. lol. I looked up their page and i doesn’t list Samsung phones among devices supported. I’ll check Graphene as well. :)

I’d really love for someone to come up with a phone OS that I could use on my cell phone. Mine runs on Android and I want to dump all things Google! I read that they have an exclusive deal with reddit where ALL data on reddit would be made available to them for training their AI algorithms. I went on perplexity.ai to check for this and here’s the response I received to my query: The deal between Reddit and Google to share data for AI training and search purposes will likely have significant impacts on Reddit user privacy:

1. Increased data sharing: Google will have exclusive access to Reddit’s Data API, allowing them to collect real-time, structured content from the platform13. This means more user-generated content and activity data will be shared with a third party.
2. Enhanced user profiling: Google will use this data to improve its AI models and search capabilities, potentially leading to more accurate user profiling across Google’s services36.
3. Potential for more personalized advertising: With access to Reddit’s data, Google may be able to create more detailed user profiles, potentially leading to more targeted advertising both on and off Reddit26.
4. Reduced anonymity: While Reddit has traditionally allowed for relative anonymity, this data sharing could make it easier to connect Reddit activity with other online identities13.
5. Increased scrutiny of user content: As Reddit seeks to maintain its value for AI training, there may be stricter moderation and potential removal of certain types of content or communities4.
6. Changes to user agreements: Reddit may update its privacy policy and user agreement to reflect this new data sharing arrangement, potentially granting themselves broader rights to use and share user data6. It’s important to note that while Reddit claims it does not sell personal information to third parties, this deal represents a significant change in how user data is shared and utilized23. Users concerned about privacy may need to be more cautious about the information they share on the platform and may want to review their privacy settings regularly. P.S.: Ignore the weird numbers as those are reference links. I copy-pasted this stuff.
