PySkyWiFi: completely free, unbelievably stupid wi-fi on long-haul flights | Robert Heaton

The plane reached 10,000ft. I took out my laptop, planning to peruse the internet and maybe do a little work if I got really desperate.

Some of the advancements in AI are genuinely cool. Sophisticated autocomplete, “magic eraser” type features, neat. But the assistant stuff has got to go. It’s dishonest and dangerous. The LLM technique is inherently flawed for anything that is supposed to be *true* and the tech industry deliberately lying about this is a scam basically on the level of cryptocurrency if not worse. I can’t wait for it to end.

@52fighters how do current requirements compare to historical requirements?
@Airout12 I don't think Mastodon will ever catch on among people who aren't at least a little bit tech savvy. Needing to go around and copy paste URLs all the time just isn't friendly. Bluesky has potential.
@Airout12 yeah, way less splintered and a much smoother experience.
@ancientprawns only one way to find out, log back on and see if it comes back
