@lehtimaeki There are some standalone apps/services for this very specific purpose, but personally, I'd take a close look at Feedbin:

https://feedbin.com/

It's an all-purpose RSS reader with built-in email subscription support (using a dedicated address it gives you).

Five bucks a month or $50/year.

The web experience is great, and you can install it as a PWA, too, if you want. If you want a more native app setup on Android, this third-party client is quite good:

@jhpot @ernie Exactly that. Or two years before, even. It's tough to imagine that (a) everything said in this narrative is completely accurate and (b) Bezos could be dense enough to have failed to anticipate this reaction and the way this would come across in its current execution, even if maybe he didn't think it'd be *this* intense.

Something just doesn't add up.

@kevinctofel Ugh — I *just* noticed this in my feed reader and was about to ping you directly when I saw this thread. What a mess. So sorry you're dealing with this.

Do you remember this, from July? https://www.engadget.com/apple-blog-tuaw-returns-as-an-ai-content-farm-225326136.html

I *think* they eventually lucked out and got the new owner to come around to the side of reason.

Short of that, it really does seem like a difficult and likely costly legal struggle — although, as @benfrancis said, the very threat of such action might be enough.

@smach I've also always wondered how much the method itself could skew and limit results — namely the fact that so many people simply won't answer a call from an unknown number at all nowadays, and that alone could presumably cause some unavoidable and seemingly significant selection bias.

Before trusting an AI to tell you about stuff you don’t know, ask it to tell you about things you’re an expert in.

@harrymccracken Found it! Only slightly dusty...

I honestly couldn't even say how I came to own it at this point. I must've either ordered it somehow or maybe been given it when I visited the San Francisco office way back when (which would have been circa, oh, 2009 or 2010, probably?).

@harrymccracken I still have a t-shirt from that! (...somewhere.)

A fine way to spend a #silentsunday.

An LLM-powered chatbot walks into a bar.

The bartender asks, "What'll you have?"

The chatbot says, "Whatever everyone else is having — just mixed up *slightly* differently."

Governments around the world have found exactly this every time they've looked hard at Apple keeping competing browsers at bay, but crikey. The DOJ is not playing around:

@papafitz456 Erm...not great (to say the least!). New report will be out before long.

I want these chairs.

I need these chairs.

The first release of Internet Explorer (1995) is closer in time to the Apollo 11 moon landing (1969) than now.

The Void is experiencing extremely high call volumes right now. Please hold. Your screaming is very important to us.

I miss having to defrag drives. There was something therapeutic about watching it.

@riazrahaman Those were from the Pixel 8 Pro.
