Is absurd to put the onus of making sure your agent doesn’t waste money on other people. They are free to ask the bot to do anything, and the bot is free to refuse or its owner can shut it down. The onus is on the owner to make sure the bot

Speak for yourself. I highly value other people’s time, to the extent that I should probably value my time higher than I do for my own sake. Doing something that wastes other people’s time or makes more work for them than necessary makes me

New Zealand, probably among the bottom half of countries based on population, so quite likely what you’re describing is not the majority experience. It’s probably rather rare worldwide.

People born with Down syndrome deserve all the respect and dignity any other person does. I have two kids. If I could have chosen whether or not they would be born with Down syndrome I would choose would “without” every single time. If eith

Thankfully, you’re right. No one should be watching porn in a public place.

You can watch porn on devices most people already have.

Unless materials science advances to the point where a display like the Vision Pro weighs as much as a pair of glasses, I don’t think there’ll ever be mass adoption of wearable VR beyond anything more than a novelty, for exactly the reason

Then I will simply stop purchasing games and continue to play old ones that I can run on my computer as I please, online server or just do something better with my time. The whole thing seems absurd when you remember that no one needs vid

I see a lot more bad art now. I suspect most of it is AI, but I can’t prove it.

In an ideal world that crystalline salt by product could be used to offset any imported or mined salt, further reducing the environmental impact of those operations.

You can have a writer re-write them into acceptable release notes. It gives them a good and accurate starting point.

On the contrary, I think what you value has the greatest impact on your life, it can be the difference between being happy or completely miserable. Some people spend their lives valuing the wrong things and being unhappy, so much so that it

Those would need to be connected during docking and sealed separately anyway if you wanted to seal the hatch. More failure points.

Thanks, that makes sense and is simpler than I was thinking. I’ve already got some Unifi gear so should be easy.

Enjoy its presence. If that doesn’t sound like something you’d enjoy, then it’s not the right set for you. Not something I’d ever buy, but I’m sure many will.

My vision isn’t great and I do find it more difficult to read comfortably than most sites. I haven’t checked the actual contrast ratio, but for this particular font and size the text color feels like it’s lacking strong contrast against the

I think a model this size full of alcohol would also be quite hazardous for several reasons.

That’s the cool thing, the lines we, as a society, choose to draw need not follow any logical or rational system. This is something those who work a lot with computers tend to forget. The pure rationalist loses something important.
