How is it on easy of use for the non-techies? And compatability of apps?

I do look forward to the day that I can have a phone that unfolds into a tablet size. I have two devices because my old ass has trouble reading and typing on a phone. But that is going to take an extra dimension of folding.

Pixel? https://www.techradar.com/phones/are-the-new-google-pixel-phones-spying-on-you

Pixel? By google? I can’t imagine they aren’t collecting a ton of data on users. It’s thier whole business model. I don’t know about the others, but by including the pixel I am dubious if the others are any better than samsung.

Jeremiah, Jericho, dead like me.

They were all great ideas (though jericho wasn’t necessarily original), that if you grabbed some great writers could be modernized to be awesome. But since they didn’t have a wide audience, they never will happen unless I use this power. Most of the others mentioned here will eventually get redone.

Now tell us how you really feel… actually, maybe don’t. :) (so you don’t get banned. Lol)

I can’t imagine the pixel is much better. I think the question you have should be inverted. What doesn’t have spyware…

But what options are there for non tech savvy people. Apple isn’t any better.

I’ve been told that it struggles at very high scale. But other than that, everyone I know of who has tried it, like it.

The key (to surviving) for me is similar. Simplify as much day to day stuff as I can. Build habits to reduce the cognitive load of doing day to day tasks. I’ve been at it for decades, and it is still a struggle. Always will be I suppose.

Having played a lot of raft with my kids, I can say I never would have thought of it for this. But looking back, yeah, there is a good deal of world building going on.

Sounds like you forgot to consider the energy cost of developing each AI model. Developing and maintaining a model is vastly more energy intense than 3d game dev. Keep in mind that you can ship a 3d game and ramp down gpu use for dev. But an AI model has to be constantly updated, mostly by completely retraining. Also, noone was clamoring to build massive data centers just to develope one game. Yet they are for one model.

You’re both right. The extreme hype means it isn’t yet all that useful. But it doesn’t mean it won’t get there. Once it is there, they won’t need to hype it as much.

The root of the issue is allowing officer to lie in order to deprive people of thier rights.

He knew he had nothing, he was just trying to get a confession by saying it was a 100% lock. The cameras wouldn’t matter as much if lieing like that was illegal.

I feel like it changes the meaning of “day”. In some contexts, day is the daylight hours… but in this context it is from when you woke up to when you went to sleep. So it feels a bit more timezone agnostic. But only a tiny bit. This would be more ture if you were comparing have a good afternoon to have a good day.

But the real answer. Someone just didn’t like saying the same thing over and over, so threw in some variation. Someone else who wanted to suck up to them started using it. Others just happened to follow.

You started out decent, then went off the deepend. You are connecting plants to refined sugars in the end. An apple (from a plant) has no refined sugar. No plants do. And the milk thing sounds like a conspiracy theory. They ban raw milk because if it isn’t handled correctly, it can make you sick. While this is a bit of an over reach, in most places it started long before thier was an industry to protect.

I wish their were, but I’m not so sure. They started arresting people who simply wrote articles they didn’t like. They have declared an organization that doesn’t actually exist terrorists. So now all the have to do is is say, you’re antifa and you are under arrest. Any peacful solution will just result in the people involved getting arrested. Or at some point they will just declare a peaceful protest a terrorist attack because one person threw a rock that they thought was a gernade… and they then just open fire. They are clamping down on the media so that only thier voice is heard. And they are meddling with elections so they can’t lose. But here is a simpler answer. If thier were peaceful ways, then the people of more countries would have used those in thier countries. But if you look, the vast majority are under the control of corrupt governments. The US is the result of a violent revolution. It just didn’t last. Corrupt rule is the steady state that all large organizations trend toward.

Cultural norm is the term I used. That means perceived norm by a given culture. That is what we are divergent from. It is at least accurate in what it communicates. Most every other term is like sick. It specifically implies bad. Nuerodivergent is at least nuetral.

They didn’t say zombifying. All the side effects they listed can still occur when you have found the effective dosage.

Also, “sick” when it comes to mental health is pretty much always measured against the cultural norm. That is why nuerodivergent is a better word. Cause it is divergent from the current norm. Even if that norm isn’t actually the average.

And gosh forbid they are “out”, cause you can only check 3 days before you run out. Nothing like being treated like a criminal because of a medical condition.
