Thought the product looks good for a prototype, but crazy as a published product. Then found out it's a closed beta. So ... ok? Closed beta test is doing what such a test is supposed to do. Sure, ideally the issue would have been figur

Damn. And no large-scale military activity in play. I hardly see how this could be considered anything but an absolute win, especially where Maduro has been considered being more and more authoritarian, rejecting democracy, and probably wou

Hope they'll fix the obvious bugs like CPU use going to 60% doing nothing after restore from hibernation next

Yeah that hardly talks of the "journalist" being good at their job. At worst they asked a biased question like "has this photo been AI generated and if then how" or worse. People tend to think that AI is like a specific

The same reason there's only more regulations being piled on top of previous ones. Sadly only wars and similar catastrophes work as reset buttons for these things historically. A peace as long as the current one is somewhat of an untes

Looks are subjective. The "narrow mustache" alfas have make the absolutely ugly for me, even though I do understand some people consider then pretty for some reason. CB's aren't "traditionally pretty" but are o

Good take. I think someone said (might've been Elon) that building an AI but limiting its training material to material from 1870-1970 would avoid a lot of this, as arguably that was the period of greatest advancement of humankind that

Can't beat X. Such a great feature to see which accounts might be trying to astroturf. Already accounts like Republicans For Trump, and several (mostly no-name) US flag -toting accounts were exposed for not even being based in the US.

Kind of? That is what how the early adopter "section" of buyers work. It's not a secret that supercars have more arbitrary faults too, and repairs aren't as available as getting your Corolla running again. CB has a lot o

The same reason any software costs money even when you run it locally I suppose. Local software having a subscription instead of a single price seems to just be increasingly common these days. I'd assume there are good free alternative

I'd hardly call it "weak" with gigafactories setting new standards in efficiency, and Tesla being the only "recently" founded US carmaker making massive amounts of cars. All while they have more vertical integration

idk if filtering out low like number x posts is helping to "de-enshittify" the web, logically it would just make harder for actual posts to take off while artificially boosted stuff is untouched ...

When Musk took over he added the "Following" tab back as front and center. People do like following the algo still, but also frequent the Following tab, something many competitors still don't have.

No need for anyone for ever having had to pretend, there's no platform with the amount of criticism of even the owner of the platform as X. If that confuses you, look up the definition. It really is defining to Freedom of Speech that p

Crazy trying to equate having a picture of one's spouse or children to having a logo of an increasingly extreme politicized movement. >Someone else having a problem with that is sowing discord Listen to yourself man

Sincere or not, the obvious should be stated here that distain for extremely politicized gender movements has little to do with outstanding opinions for said actual sexualities. I've personally voted for (several!) gay political candid

It's all in the same direction. The kind of ignorance a question like "What’s divisive about a pride flag?", even if sincere really highlights this. There are a lot of people and thoughts in the world, and there is a lot of e

This is quite cool, rocked back and forth from and to my screen and got a (bit inconsistent, but consistently visible) "shape" of the fovea. maybe 30% larger than I thought it'd be! Right after though, I felt like my vision w

If this doesn't fix the damn "audio quality goes to 10kbps if you also want a mic" I'm going to electrocute the devs responsible with the voltage common BT devices running this stack require.

Stickers themselves can be fun and quirky, but I for the life of me can't figure out why people would put such extremely divisive and workplace-unnecessary messaging on their MAIN WORK DEVICE as many of these have. The kind of lack to

It's good people like you who consider free speech some laughing matter don't lead the conversation. I don't even want to think how dim the situation would be without him having taken over.

Given how integrated Drive and Docs are, if this doesn't have docs-like collaborative realtime document editing, for many people this is like "30% of Google Drive" For people whose UX is dragging and dropping stuff to browser
