The only digital subscription service I want is a subscription to a real-life IT person in my real-life local community who will go into my phone and computer once a month to remove all the new AI features and other enshittifying features that companies have sneaked onto my devices against my will since the last time.
Seriously. If AI is so fanbloodytastic, why do they have to sneak it in and hide any off-switches?
Aye. An all too relevant meme 😔
@cockneylaurie Exactly! The 'Wifi kettle' is my go-to example of how stupid everything got. Even leaving the environmental and energy costs aside, it makes no functional sense. You still have to walk right up to the kettle to fill it and to use it, so there is no useful function at all. At least the Teasmades of the 70s had an actual function.
WiFi Toothbrush! 😉🤷♂️
I am kinda but it's not surprising that it does exist.
@simonzerafa Like almost everything technical, digital and political these days: I am shocked but not surprised.
