people who earn 200k/yr still have to work to live. ~15k a month net is a lot but if you have kids, pets, a mortgage, medical bills, student loans, car, phone etc and you trying to eat too, you can’t suddenly say “phew! I’ve had enough work for the next 40 years, time to live on 4k a year - easy!”

Would you level that criticism at a welder, at a longshoreman, at a truck driver? they can earn 6 fig salaries too

just become an art teacher, that’s how they dress

I dont need the scientific method not to stick my hand in fire.

And I’ve used AI. Its shit. It don’t work. It makes pure nonsense.

yes but DNS is terrestrial, so you could just ban the web portals and apps on earth.

Yes you could VPN to a non-compliant country, but you can already do that without a spater spenter

Can’t make a Tomlette without breaking a few Gregs.

no it’s because dentistry isn’t on the NHS unless it’s hazardous to your health, and instead says that aesthetics and day to day care are optional private procedures and that’s just how teeth look when the average person doesn’t have 2-4 years of orthodontics and regular whitening and polishing procedures.

from the BTB episode on this, some of his candidates for the antichrist are just people he fell out with on Twitter lol

what the other guy said, plus, speaking entirely about a graphene phone vs a voice assistant, even the sandboxed telemetry is going to give more telemetry because you carry your phone around and use multiple apps, but a voice assistant is a static location and most people use it for music, recipes and weather, whereas more people are more likely to use their phone for banking, shopping, maps, messaging, photos and looking at adult content.

Obviously if you have a phone you’ve just turned on for the first time and you like to tell Alexa when you’re shopping for expensive jewelry every day it’d be reversed - I’m just talking generally

Edit to say: people get tunneled into “Alexa is a microphone, a phone is a computer” when they are both both those things.

Your phone is probably worse. Yes, even with GrapheneOS.

Yeah but your TAM (who you could possibly sell to) is the biggest concentric circle, inside that is the Servicable Addressable Market (who you could feasibly sell to) and your SOM (serviceable obtainable market, who you are actually selling to) and the consumer market is who you were actually selling to.

It could be that these data centers never become serviceable or obtainable, and this is all just predictions with no actual product making it into a machine.

you fool it manipulated you into getting bukkaked

On one hand I see your point. On t’other, we’ve tried complete neutrality and it failed, maybe it’s time for a communications platform where we hold people to a standard?

green card holder with real ID here.

legally, though, I am required to carry my green card at all times and I moved to the US a decade ago.

Nah I’ll be like the old nonna who is the only one who can only make the pannetone the traditional way, but I can connect a GPU to the mobo

The solution is simple: make a product worth using that’s helpful and does what’s advertised, and doesn’t destroy the planet to do so.

I think everyone in this story is bad.

If you avoid joining your own military, do so. Even more so someone else’s military.

I’ll accept the down votes, but I needed a header image for a work doc that showed a map, and in the background the landscape it was mapping - too specific for a stock photo, but it’s just window dressing in a mostly internal doc - perfect use case for AI!

After 45 minutes of prompting I gave up and made it myself in 20 minutes, and used royalty free no credit needed images.

I think it may have happened to me. I had a file saved to my documents at work, I go to check on it and it’s got a red X and won’t open.

I also sync the documents directory to gdrive and because onedrive deleted it, so did gdrive.

It’s unimportant work stuff though on a work machine so it doesn’t bother me that much.

yes. I think arms company marketing vastly overstates the safety and configurability of weapons systems.
