Why are you being intentionally disingenuous?

I will say it again just so it's stated.
People are not going to move to another service unless they can obviously see the benefit in moving to that service. People who are not technically inclined (that doesn't mean stupid) are not going to see the benefit.

Don't be rude about people you don't know anything about. Don't insult their intelligence just because they're not as interested in a very niche area of technology as you are.

Why are you friend with stupid people?

Also note that if you are going to be rude about people you know nothing about, you had better check your grammar

People are already talking about to right to repair, so why not take advantage of that, why make life more difficult for yourself than it needs to be?

If they are anything like the leadership at my company they have received plenty of information about what AI can do from that IT, but you see they went to this convention in Las Vegas and some self-styled "business guru" told them everything they wanted to hear.

They go on about long-term investment and then you find out that what they're actually talking about is things that will start returning a profit in 6 months. Half a year is long-term to them.

If you have a long-term view and want to make quite a lot of money you probably couldn't do better than shorting Apple stock. They never innovate anymore (every iPhone is literally the same as the previous years), and they spend huge amounts of money on failed projects (Vision Pro), meanwhile they continue not to fix ongoing serious issues (Safari).

But politicians will actually be prepared to get behind right to repair. But they regard games as a bit infantile, and don't really want to be involved. A point that was made right at the start of all of this and was then completely ignored.

The update log essentially seems to be look at these nice clouds I don't think we've seen any actual gameplay yet at all

Is it really task automation if it does it worse than a drunk human could have done it?

Maybe they're just getting the wrong people to provide training data. The kind of people who drive Tesla's do tend to drive like morons, so it would make sense.

" It's not that hard really all you have to do is be around people who already want to move over". Yeah thanks for that advice.

I have a very similar strategy to being rich, step one is to be rich already. Simplicity itself.

That's not a British or Irish sign, and they are the only places in Europe that speak English. So I think that's an American sign it certainly looks like an American sign.

How many crickets did you imagine? I want to make sure the maths works out.

Everyone counts their own crickets and then you add the results together.

 

When you reveal a spoiler the black rectangles go away and it then renders the text in white, but on a white background (light coloured theme) The text renders is exactly the same colour as the background and so you can not see it unless you highlight the post, this renders the background of the post as light grey and there is just about enough contrast difference to now read the text.

When spoiler text is revealed it should render in the same colour as normal text. I'm not sure why it's white.

See images below for demonstration.

spoiler text is hidden

spoiler text has been revealed but is invisible

text post is highlighted and now you can see the spoiler text rendered in white
