@deadsuperhero Part of the problem is that the Echo Dot is subsidized by marketing data. You will never be able to match the price without scale.
I live on scavenged ebay/kijiji/dumpster dross to support my tech needs, but it's also not approachable, because it's not one size fits all.
You can't have approachable, cheap, and private because the reason it's not private is to make it cheaper. F/LOSS CAN'T compete with things that sell *you* on price.

♲ @Adam H. Johnson (adamjohnsonNYC@twitter.com): reminder that 100 corporations are responsible for 71% of global greenhouse gas emissions and presenting the crisis as a moral failing on the part of individuals without noting this fact is journalistic malpractice. https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1049510036588900352

OK, seriously. I want to talk about this.
Senators kept talking to Christine Ford as "your'e a teacher" or talking about how impressive the basic concepts of encoding she knew were. And... need I say, HOLY FUCK. She's a DOCTOR and PROFESSOR. OF COURSE SHE KNOWS PSYCHOLOGY.

@pamela I just want to steal this for Shadowrun

@qwazix I think mine uses too much CSS

@lordbowlich I want that so badly. I want my own style sheets. That sounds so much better

@feld So it's either badly thought out security policy, which hurts consumers. Or it might be monopolism. Or it might be a dislike of getting back devices that have been fucked up by bad repairs. But all of this is bad for customers.

@feld I agree, except for the fact that this is entirely not a threat model that Apple's target market has.

@feld Sure. Fine. And maybe you're worth that. That's fine. But I would rather be able to fix my devices and experiment with weird tech, than defend against the NSA. Having this be an unavoidable default isn't security, it's DRM. If you need that level of security, it should be at the buyer level, not the vendor level.
Accepting different levels of risk, types of environments, and levels of risk acceptance is IMPORTANT.
