What downsides are there?

If an LLM can save me 30 minutes writing nice emails and responses and help me brainstorm, debug, or elucidate my thoughts then it is very useful.

I thought it was some sort of chess joke lmaoo thx

Boots theory doesn't really apply because it is the exact same phone/hardware. Plus most people don't really care about reflashing their phone.

As for the privacy stuff I don't really know much about it in the context of locked phones so I'll take your word for it.

I don't get it?

I don't really see why people are against it, personally I never buy locked devices but they are usually a chunk cheaper and there is always an option for a locked device.

If telecoms were making certain phones exclusively locked (as in not selling unlocked phones) it would be a problem. But rn it seems that it is an easy way to save money if you like a carrier.

We don't have the bones of gengis khan either

I mean i get that matrix is used by bad people, but that doesn't mean that matrix is bad.

Any decentralized platform will have this issue with csam, but that doesn't make ot bad. Matrix is basically what TOR is to browsing the internet, people use TOR for CSAM but that doesn't make tor bad.

However he does raise up a big concern and thats that homeserver admins are unable to change what they are hosting which means that they are forced to host CSAM which is a really big issue

Overall tho, matrix is still a good platform. There's nothing wrong with government contracts, its all open source. TOR was developed by the us military but that doesn't make it bad or even less effective

Ah yes the ass dick

For those wondering the three things are
