Probably, although they probably can't force you to reveal it's your dick that unlocks the phone.

Honestly their launch announcement is so vague it could be everything and nothing.

"Economics is basically math" is one of the greatest PR stunts that anybody ever pulled. Mainstream economics is pseudoscience sprinkled with some maths so people take it more seriously, it has barely any more predictive power than palm reading.

Don't forget it's also a bit like Hogwarts students fighting the deatheaters.

Was it just EXIF information or was it something embedded in the pixels? If it's just EXIF that's something you can scrub from the file easily.

Agreed, always amazes me what the open source community can do. It's also very humbling, I generally like to think of myself as a competent developer but then I see crazy shit like this being done and I'm like damn still got a lot to learn, I wouldn't even know where to start with reverse engineering a GPU.

How's the build quality compared to other brands, particularly macbooks? I haven't found a brand with even remotely the same build quality as a macbook.

Also I don't think most people understand just how ineffective true vibe coding is. I tried it a few times and could barely get something slightly more complex than a demo todo app working, and even if it was working it was barely prototype level quality of user experience, there is zero chance somebody is deploying vibe coded features into a large, serious production system and not suffering major and immediate consequences because shit just didn't work at all.

The best you're going to get out of it is it shortens the amount of time wasted on tiny adjustment to the UI or something.

Alternatively, you can just decide not to give that much of a fuck about losing hair.
