I’ve included the main first section of the blog post, but more information provided with the link. I downloaded the zip files and the MindTheGapps file to sideload per the instructions, and it was pretty painless on both of my…
It’s funny the liberals get bent out of shape with Flock helping ICE, but no concern for the privacy of actual citizens. And this behavior of Flock not removing the cameras until the contract was up, and even removing the…
This has been a developing story and I hadn’t seen good reporting, with this video taking you through the highlights, though the blog post linked in the description has pictures and lot more detail. This is nation state level hacking…
This is kind of funny in that they don’t have a great product, and they won’t provide a way to remove it. Apple, Microsoft and Google are working towards controlling what software you can install, digital ID and agentic AI…
This article has a couple hilarious points. The robots failing leading to Walmart spending more on the repair technicians verses lower salaried warehouse workers. And the $2.6 billion write down by Kroger of a failed automation project. And Kroger is…

For those of us that want nothing to do with AI hook enabling Wayland, staying on XLibre (X11) while also prefering the KDE Desktop, October 14th is a precarious time as KDE is dropping X11 support and going Wayland only…
People seem to be getting caught up in AI laziness, trying to find all the ways AI can do things for them with no idea of what it’s really doing, and no concern for what personal information they’re allowing it…
