I wouldn't call 15% "way heavier". If it's close enough that the people in the car can make up the difference then it's close enough. Also, why compare the Cybertruck Cyberbeast to a Tacoma, the low end of a Tacoma

People saying that fuel efficiency is the most important factor often means a mid-sized SUV 3 row SUV rather than a Suburban.

The weight difference between a Camry and Model 3 isn't much heavier. You probably won't see a lot of deaths from hummer ev's because there just won't be very many.

Often the per student funding number is skewed because of all the services a school provides, but not every student gets. Extra services may be specialized staff like speech therapists, occupational therapists, nurses, aides, bussing, or l

Those ads are also filled with trickery to show a false idea of what something is really like. Things like photoshopped models, auto-tuning, filters, painting food to look a certain way, sound fx being added. The list is nearly endless.

You keep saying things to denigrate art associated with AI tools. Why?
219.
by frumper 3y ago
Art is art. The argument is just a pile of shifting sands. But artists make choices! But artists require knowledge! But artists need to communicate! A good artist will be able to use AI tools to create compelling art that communicates th

One could say much the same comparing photography to painting. Photography allows people to communicate in ways that previously they didn't have the skill to with paint. AI is just a tool, the art will be in learning how to best use

I pay less for gigabit fiber than I did for DSL a decade ago. Cable prices for me have been both higher and lower.

They could still give a discount to new customers only. There may be ways around it for some people through changing account names or something, but it'd mean that it isn't as easy as you say. There is friction to changing servi

They should just find a new office. If theirs retired anyway, they’re getting a new doctor. They’d be on Medicare and the participation rate for doctors with Medicare is in the high 90s.

I’m sure some people have, but of the half dozen people I know to have gotten a gastric bypass, all of them were about where they started no more than 5 years later.

Not many Apple products get made for non Apple devices.

I doubt anyone is shocked that Apple execs want to sell more Apple products. They are paid very well to do that.

I’m just curious what you think Apple should do for a stolen phone?

> GM alone hoping to make as much as $25 billion per year just off subscriptions by 2030. They think they’ll make $25B themselves. They also want your data.

A no nonsense infotainment system doesn’t sound like the kind of thing people will spend $25billion a year on.

I'd agree. This sounds like a terrible game. It doesn't sound terrible because they used large amounts of assets from the unreal marketplace though. They just made a game that wasn't very good.

Ae a gamer, it doesn’t bother me one bit where the assets are from. Just make it fun and engaging. Edit: stolen assets bother me, legally obtained ones don’t.

Apple actively squashes attempts to jailbreak the phone which allows for additional app stores. The fact they aren’t mainstream alternatives is because Apple takes actions to stop the competition.

AT&T wasn't delivering 300mbps before rolling out fiber. They were selling 100mbps connections with data caps for more than what the cable company was offering.

You’re saying part of the problem is people overwhelmed by menial job elections yet say people should elect police captains. Should they then also elect deputy police chiefs, police chiefs? Also, anyone that knows their civics would know

If your belief is correct in that the Congress and President are coerced into doing what the shadow government wants, then they would have zero need for a revolution or regime change in the United States.

With this belief, does anything really matter?

Congress created these agencies, they can write laws that fundamentally change how they work, what they do, and what they focus on. They can even just disband these agencies. Congress has all of the power it needs. If they don't use

This hasn’t been a secret. McConnell has been spouting this as a big reason why he supports it.

lol, I didn’t realize suggesting Americans don’t budget would even be controversial, let alone considered an attack. Attacking people with the rules isn’t constructive. If you think my comment isn’t appropriate, just flag it.
