While I doubt that it will wow those on Fairphone's customer support waiting lists anytime soon, the company has now set up a 🆕 "Repair Request Portal".

Reorganized and redesigned, it also adds the option to – if wanted or needed – RETURN the device without live customer support interaction IF the system determines an RMA (return merchandise authorization) can be legitimately issued. Apart from that, the portal also includes a vast array of self-diagnosis options and instructions.

I recommend that if you want your feedback on this noticed by Fairphone, the forum topic is the best place for it. /u

Hours later Yvette Cooper got the drop from the Home Office for someone who will presumable be 'harder on Migrants and harder on the causes of Migrants, boo to Migrants, yayy to white people" and so forth...

A grim week of migrant-bashing, and for what? People will suffer – and Labour will gain absolutely nothing

British politicians’ rhetoric has become increasingly shouty and hateful. And now the home secretary has joined the chorus, says writer Diane Taylor

If these tech companies continue to cut jobs, it will cut into everything from housing to all the other businesses that benefit from tech employees. If you think of Silicon Valley as a company town and the company in general is tech as an umbrella enterprise, pulling rug out of all the employees will devastate the entire area.

OpenAI hat eine Funktion angekündigt, die die Konten von Kindern mit denen ihrer Eltern verknüpfen kann Die Eltern sollen dann eine Warnung erhalten, wenn ChatGPT in den Prompts der Kinder "wahnhafte oder schädliche Gedankengänge" entdeckt. Eltern können die Prompts der Kinder einsehen.

Gleichzeitig unterliegen sämtliche KI-Unternehmen der USA gerade dem politischen Druck, ihre Produkte in Richtung "anti-woke" zu manipulieren. Es ist leicht vorstellbar, dass ChatGPT queere Kinder bei ihren Eltern outen würde, weil deren Informationssuchen als "schädlich" eingeordnet würden.

Ich wiederhole mich: Jugendschutzvorhaben, die die Perspektiven queerer Kinder nicht mitbedenken, bergen immer die Gefahr, diese nicht zu schützen, sondern ihnen massiv zu schaden.
