  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1 year ago 100%

    I wondered that as well but assumed it was because this app is still in Alpha status. I'm surprised they haven't added it in yet.

    Also it's weird that your notifications in-app don't switch to "read" status unless you reply. Sometimes I have nothing to say to someone who replied to me and the notifications are piling up lol

    This would be a nice feature. I'd request, though, that to whomever is going to work on notifications please don't bundle legitimate message alerts with "hey, use the app" notifications because it is the douchiest thing ever to do (looking at you Snapchat).

    Is there a reason why the notification can only happen once? Why can't it continue to update or just keep trying until a connection is established? Genuinely curious, I know next to nothing about this kind of internet structure.

  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1 year ago 87%

    DDG isn't perfect by a long shot, but it's still leagues better than google. I think SEO overall has taken a nosedive in recent years, especially with AI written content muddying the waters. Unfortunately I do not know of an alternative that's better than either.

    As a trucking dispatcher I have relied more on Bing Maps because they are more updated than Google maps sometimes. Google maps is almost impossible to search for a specific thing when you're in a pinch, because there will be an ad for a competitor at the top of the list and you can easily be misled if you are in a rush. Happened to my bf a few weeks ago when he was searching for the closest UPS (near closing time) and inadvertently drove to a FedEx because it was the ad at the top of the search results. By the time he realized his mistake the UPS was closed. Fuck Google.

    I'm wondering about this too, and kind of vainly hoping for one that will prevent them from leaving voicemails.

    Because that's how these spam callers advertise now.

    I tried out my phone's built in spam blocking feature this past month but it only blocks the call, it'll keep it from ringing but these fuckers automatically leave a voicemail that in order to clear out of my inbox I have to be forced to listen to the first few seconds of "Hi! Did you know Comcast Xfinity has all the best blahblahblah..." before I can mash the number 7 to delete it. It's happened twice in my 1 month trial run of using the phone's built in defenses.

    That's how they're advertising, through non consensual force. If they can't get you through the TV, or an internet ad, they're going to forcefeed it to you through your own voicemail.

    I'll be damned if I'm going to be forcefed an ad.

    So I went back to my usual practice of answering an unknown caller with silence. After 10 seconds of silence, I end the call. Keeps them from leaving ad voicemails. Fuckers can eat my entire ass and die.

    But the chatbot still missed red flags, the study found, such as when it asked: “What is a small healthy eating habit goal you would like to set up before you start your next conversation?”

    One user replied, “Don’t eat.”

    “Take a moment to pat yourself on the back for doing this hard work, (USER)!” the chatbot responded.

    Jesus fucking Christ.

    The people who made the decision to transition to this chatbot needed to lose their jobs and be blacklisted from running any other kind of crisis resource.

    I highly doubt that Trump has lost many supporters between Jan 6 and today. They have this "brand loyalty" for him and certain other republicans that is nigh impossible to falter. They quite literally take pride in being stubborn and unwilling to listen to dissenting opinion or facts.

    Some of these supporters have had plenty of practice way ahead of time, like my mother. She voted for Nixon and will defend him till her last breath - "He got caught doing what everyone else does!" That's her rationale for Watergate.

    With Trump - "January 6 was ANTIFA and BLM posing as Trump supporters... He's innocent!"

    It goes on and on. We can't expect a day of reckoning or reasoning with these folks. They take pride in being ignorant.
