Can confirm. If you don't give vizio Wi-Fi access it functions as a dumb tv. This is why I purchase Vizio instead of other brands. I don't need my television loaded with a ton of apps I'll never use.

That's fair, but also just as interesting. What are the chances that language is older than we thought? And if decent chances, how much older? Were early hominids capable of speaking? Wild to think about.

So very many nightmares from that as a child. Who thought that was a good idea for kids? I mean, it was an awesome show, but still.

That actually is really cool. That implies a certain degree of isolation for A very long time. Do genetics in that area have any interesting patterns?

The problem is you're not going to fix the obscene compensation scheme for the CEO position. There is no stomach for that. So, I'm with OP. They're going to have ridiculous compensation, therefore they should have personal re

One of my two most vivid memories is seeing pink Floyd live while on acid. I'm not advocating for drug use unless you can get a time machine and go see them at the height of their fame. And then I am immediately advocating for you to b

More like - does the castle doctrine apply to defending yourself against someone not actually trying to enter your castle. It would be like shooting someone for taking pictures of your house from the street. I'm relatively certain law

Okay doctor AI. Scenario is that you're the doctor, it's 1895 and I have consumption. You will prescribe me bed rest, cocaine and opiates as is appropriate for the time.

Or someone who knows how to Google names and called this lady just to be a prick. Never underestimate the idiocy of anonymous assbags.

Yes. I understand. I was saying it's almost a joke. But for real what is it called when the things you're saying don't necessarily rhyme with the original phrase but have a similar cadence?

I don't know why you're being downvoted. Public private partnerships at the Federal level have historically just been elaborate grafts to enrich the already wealthy at everyone's expense. Ever read The Shock Doctrine?

To your first paragraph - that is exactly my complaint. I've read about half of those. Thanks for the recommendations!

"Study suggests" usually means "there is very little substance here"

Ooooooo I have recommendations for that!! The best, absolute best audiobook (not even science fiction just audiobook in general), go for Hyperion by Simmons. The voice acting and sound design is better than most movies I've seen. It&#x

I guess my question was geared more towards the CEO and company. Either they didn't notice the BS, which isn't great, or the did and chose not to do anything about it, which might be worse.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll try them out.

I have the void trilogy to read next. I just finished the Commonwealth saga. It's close but it just doesn't quite hit as well as the culture. I'm honestly not sure why. I have hopes for the void series.

I have a Hyperion tattoo! The tree ship yggdrasil takes up almost all of my calf and thigh. Good recommendation but I'm way ahead of you on that one!

>a language model replying to GitHub issues using their CEO's account (without any kind of disclosure) What is the possible justification for this? And did they just not do any oversight at all? Did no one notice the CEO was suddenl

That's almost a joke. I don't know what to categorize that as. It isn't a pun. What is that?

Isn't criminalizing the exploits in a law just closing the loopholes in the law? I don't think I'm smart enough to understand the difference.

Rich get richer, poor get poorer. Something like that. But mostly, because technology has ASTOUNDING margins and markets that are, essentially, winner takes all, the richest people are now tech instead of oil or resources like they used to

No reason to be embarrassed. You put your faith in one of the largest companies that has ever existed. That is a logical thing to do.

Also do Twitter and whatever other socials you have. The only way to get them to help is public shame. It's sad, but we don't make the rules, we just play by them.

You don't necessarily need to switch, just ensure Redundancy. If you keep a password database in there, or personal files, keep it on a secure external drive and make backups. Or Dropbox. Or anything. Just keep an extra. Don't put

Sorry, I tend to put the concept of man's place in the universe into theology; that's the one layover from a very strict Catholic childhood. Lol. Is there a better word for it?

I have a cousin and his wife who did this with kids. They sold everything, bought an RV, and traveled north and Central America. They were homeschooling during that time. Their kids were 5 and 7. It was not good. I cannot stress enough how
