My objection is the fact that it's always the technophones that seem to have the most complicated technical issues. Like my mother who managed to uninstall the driver for the embedded fingerprint reader in her laptop,

For when you don't actually want to damage the prop, so you kick it in away that no human has ever kicked anything ever before.

The only thing I use Google's AI for is to get text out of images. Which I'll give it credit for it does very well even with extremely blurry content

That was more or less the original comment back when they started. Bots were a thing on Reddit before of course but they really started getting out in hand around 2021 which was long before the deal.

The existence of extreme indifference suggests the existence of mild indifference, where you actually do care about the subject matter a tiny little bit, but insufficiently to get to the heights of mild interest.

Did they actually get anything useful from Reddit given that 90% of the content posted there is just BS. Especially now since it will be mostly just recycling its own slop.

I think he needs to Google dystopia.

Been loyal to a car brand it's such a weird concept. Especially considering that they all use the same chassis these days anyway.

They are but whose fault is that? If you're paying car companies and American car companies make decent EVs that wouldn't be a market for Chinese imports.

The only reason I would do this would be to compile iOS apps, because I am not buying an iMac just for that. Except there's already services out there that offer the solution, plus I can also access other hardware too.

If you stop using goods and services entirely funding things you disagree with the world would stop turning.

That's a bit of a nihilistic philosophy don't you think? "Everything is bad and terrible but I can't be bothered to do anything about it so I'm just going to ignore it". You know about the poem right? Your worldview is the entire point of the poem. It's not good to have that worldview.

I love OSM because there was an island in the middle of the river in my town and depending on the water height this island gets smaller and bigger, whenever there is a large amount of rain and the river is extremely high the island vanishes. Usually the island disappears from OSM within about 10 minutes and then is re-added when the river drops down to its normal level. Truly Wikipedia levels of pedantic pettiness, and I'm here for it.
