Please tell me my ball-and-cup is safe?

That’s a really good point about the sort of image quality they could capture and transmit given the tiny battery… but if they sacrifice the battery life or NC development to add in some AI data gathering it’s a step too far for me.

I’m hoping this is bullshit, but this is a fast track out of the Apple ecosystem for me.

If anyone actually wants this they they don’t have the intelligence to consider the consequences.

Either way I hope it’s announced this month as I need new headphones.

Fake: no one uses Copilot

I’ve clicked off the article now but most was due to Samsung Electronics headquarters moving from New Jersey to Texas and then some in India.

This was supposed to be satire but I just saw 10 days ago they laid off or notified intended dismissal of 1,000 people.

Yay for capitalism!

If history has taught us anything, Samsung will soon cut 5,000 jobs as part of “essential restructuring”.

I completely understand your point here, I just worry that we are the same point in history where people just hadn’t connected the dots yet.

There is a genocide going on in Gaza, there is ethnic cleaning going on in the USA and the NHS has handed off (to at least some small degree) who gets what medical treatment and when to AI.

Plalantir is involved in all of this and we may find out how much in the years and decades to come.

The comparison is undercooked, but it may just need some more time and a few more leaks…. Oh look Peter Thiel just said the Pope is “working for the Chinese communists”

But they have:

• enabled ICE to hunt, deport, torture and kill protestors and asylum seekers in the US

• provided the targeting data for Israel in the Gaza genocide.

• described those supportive of the NHS as suffering form Stockholm Syndrome

• finally Thiel himself is a well known white supremacist who is anti-women anti-LGBT, and a doomsday prepper who appears to want to actively bring down society and test his own preparedness.

Well, good! But the Telegraph reporting is so right biased here it’s surreal to read.

Scheduling operating theatres needs Actual Intelligence, which is significantly cheaper than Artificial Intelligence, and doesn’t expose the entire UKs medical history to the modern equivalent of a 1940 Auschwitz medical research group.

This was a satirical take on the state of mass-produced corporate television and film that attempt to bleed dry once great franchises in the name of corporate responsibility to shareholders above all else, which sought to link the Marvel franchise (owned by the Disney corporation) with the tenuous but valid link, of the superhero Ms Marvel, and the name of the PhD astronomer in the subject of this article who happens to be Dr Marvel.

It’s never as funny when you have to explain it though.

Dr Marvel has quit!?!?

How can Disney release 13 movies, make and cancel 8 TV series this year now?

Ah yes America, the embodiment of “if he jumped off a cliff would you do it as well?” Followed by “Hold my Bud Light”

This will lead to, sexual blackmail of children, suicide and financial fraud.

You should thank the UK for sacrificing so many of its citizens to show the world what peak government stupidity looks like. We thought the point was made with Brexit, but the UK says “hold my beer” one more time.

Well it kinda is the point, people will either use VPNs or go to riskier sources. I found a new site with loads of porn and all you have to do is install their browser plug-in, and video player!

Someone has been reading 1984… I’m not disagreeing with you, just saying ‘hi fellow doom reader’.

I’ve stopped watching YouTube shorts because of this, and the removal of the downvote count makes it harder to tell.

Thanks - 22.1 is getting installed today.

Thanks - I’m hoping to get all my household machines switched over, maybe look at a HomeServer install.

If all goes well then my parents and extended family are getting upgrades from Win10. I set them all up with decent laptops in the last 5-15 years with SSDs, wifi6/7 and maxed out memory upgrades. If it wasn’t for TPM2 required for Win11 and Win10 EOL things sure would be different.

Perfect - thank you!
