Might have more luck suing the company running the camera software which flagged it.

The ones at a price you wouldn't pay.

Ma Bell had several decades to gain good ROI with POTS, while the rate of technology change today shrinks that outlook to just one to two decades. Plus the most profitable high income areas to be installing fiber now often have local laws requiring much more expensive underground installations so residents don't have to see the ugly poles with wires hanging between them.

He's got disposable income

A key difference, especially of late.

Nailed it. The cost doesn't really make sense when you can have two functional laptops when you upgrade, so the prior one becomes a backup, a home lab server, etc. I know they have ways of making the prior pieces functional, but again at increased cost.

Never mind the fact I just plain almost never need to repair anything on my laptop because I take care not to damage it in the first place. The last laptop I had to repair anything on was one I bought in 2005, and it wasn't even anything essential - just a pretty piece of the exterior that became unglued.

The article is probably paid propaganda by Microsoft.

How about Clark & Batman? Extra Internet points if you've got Clark dressed as Batman (for a Halloween party, or something).

Face obscured, no proof that's Bruce Wayne.

Since everybody wants AI cancelled nowadays, that'll just be... Weird.

I guess that's fair. At least until the combination of AI & robotics are perfected to their liking, anyway.
