You honestly seem obsessed with that adam dude.

I think your problem is that you seem to think that "perfect" mathematical models will ever work in real life.

Can you point to a few examples of economists using it? Obviously I won't count Lemmy users.

And why should I listen to someone that defines a word differently than everyone else?

Keep in mind that this doesn't necessarily mean that recall itself is actually doing recall stuff or even running a process (I haven't checked if it does but not necessarily) like it would on a copilot laptop.

It is however very stupid that you can't uninstall recall without messing up the file Explorer. My guess is that it's a bug or some weird dependency needed with explorer.exe that handles the file explorer and a bunch of other stuff like the desktop and taskbar. It could also be spying but this seems like a stupidly obvious way to do it if they wanted too.

What definition are you going by?

Being free to innovate and keep your own ideas to yourself sounds like it should be part of the free market though.

Forcing people to disclose their (mental) secrets seems bizarre.

The playing field won't be level without patents or copyright. Why would I an average idiot make or invent something if the exact second I show the world my invention someone takes it and mass-produces it within a week? I have no chance to raise capital to make the invention myself if you can already buy it in every store. The Chinese manufacturing industry essentially does this already but to a lesser degree. Imagine if every company did that. No small companies or individuals would stand a chance against Goliath.

And again the word monopoly is very misleading in this discussion, especially when it comes to copyright. There is absolutely nothing stopping anyone from making superhero movies just because Marvel/Disney owns a lot of superhero rights. You are just not allowed to make an exact copy of their movie but you are allowed to make similar movies all day long.

Another example is a professional photographer. Do you really think that they should be awarded no rights whatsoever to the photograph they took?

The same obviously applies to huge companies as well. Why make a movie if it's available for free download literally everywhere.

How do you propose that the makers of content, inventions and products get paid? Donations? Get real, that won't happen.

Really? Calling it a government enforced monopoly seems very disingenuous.

Good luck trying to make a movie without Disney stealing it or making an invention with really effective solar panels or something without the biggest companies stealing it and bankrupt the original creator.

Copyright and patents protect everyone involved in creation and while there are a LOT of problems with the systems. Removing it entirely seems like the biggest overcorrection possible.

Yeah, the huge companies would dominate over small companies even more than they already do.

I also use sync but the formatting and a bunch of other stuff is unfortunately pretty broken.

I don't think we will ever get a fix either ;(

If you just want to be aware, you could often read the headlines for free or follow news sites like Reuters, AFP, or AP.

They are primarily wire news companies and are a great way to get reliable, truthful and often free news. If you want to read longer articles, you should pay if you want to have articles to read in the future.

As they said the app needs ongoing maintenance.
