  • You want privacy and security but you want it over plain IMAP/SMTP, then you’ll have to manually encrypt and decrypt every message. It’s a good thing they don’t offer IMAP/SMTP support as those protocols are old and insecure by nature - SSL and TLS are bandaids, they can only do so much.

    There are compromises to keeping yourself safe online, one of which is to convenience, and the other is to your wallet - yes, privacy costs. If you don’t want to make those compromises, just open up and let Google in and get comfortable watching your data get siphoned away.

    On the one hand, generative AI doesn’t have to give deterministic answers i.e. it won’t necessarily generate the same answer even when asked the same question in the same way.

    But on the other hand, editing the HTML of any page to say whatever you want and then taking a screenshot of it is very easy.








  • If you watch MKBHD’s video, you see him spinning himself around on a chair. The chair legs are in constant contact with some part of the cone thingies while they’re rolling, which means friction, which means wear. I posted a screenshot from MKBHD’s video in another response that shows what looks like debris all over the surface of the cone rollers; the debris is not uniform and is quite clearly not part of the roller material (I put a screenshot in the reply to another comment, so I’ll just link it here), so I assumed that it was from testing the treadmill with various objects.

    As well, there was no need to be a dick about it.


  • MKBHD’s video shows it moving him around on a chair, spinning the chair, etc etc. In the closeup shots, it looks like there’s debris on the surface of the cone thingies:

    The debris isn’t uniform and is quite obviously not part of the roller material; I just kind of assumed that it was from stuff they’d been testing on it, though I suppose it could be generic workshop crud that fell on the rollers too 🤷
