schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 10/10/2026You can do as many as Google accounts you have, so your/parents names, emails, phone numbers, addresses etc. It won't prevent a determined individual, but it will slow them down. It also is a step you can take against data brokers. 000
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 10/10/2026You can suppress/remove Google search results with "your" personal information. It takes 5 minutes to set up with a Google acct and you can set any names, numbers, email addresses you want. 100

schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 27/09/2026This could have a horrendous impact on mobile ecosystems. not to mention they are already trying to sell the "individualized app" as a feature. 000
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 27/09/2026But if you have a local bot that can just brute force through DRM, why would there ever be a client side app again? You couldn't possibly make any long-term revenue. All of the logic and assets have to stream, or else the dev can't pay rent. 110
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 27/09/2026The business models for apps has been: a creative has put time and effort into creating a thing that can be sold an infinite number of times. With ads and MTX it continues to pay the developers bills or be sold as an asset. Cool, that's fair. 100
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 27/09/2026It took maybe three autonomous hours and an APK and it did it. If a comparably capable local model was able to do this, even in 60 hours, autonomously, what's the point of paying $5 for ad free or $3 for in game currencies? 100
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 27/09/2026To test a bot I decided to have it decompile a mobile app to bypass advertising. I did this for two reasons: 1) mostly out of curiosity to see if it could decrypt the app, get basic code etc. 2) I hate ads. 100
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 27/09/2026The effect of local bots is going to be a problem for mobile app development. 100

schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 12/09/2026that in itself is neat, especially if the information is probable, but it's not sentient. It doesn't take actions beyond the information provided. It doesn't wonder; it doesn't create beyond what it has baked into its probable outcomes. 000
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 12/09/2026why not just say what they mean, a probabilistic text generator is decent at ingesting information and adding information to the end. 100
schmoogen @schmoogen.com · 12/09/2026a probabilistic model is being claimed as sentient, but is incapable of growth 🤷 seems sketchy 100
