Hopefully vaping will still be legal? They do distinguish the difference between inhaling burnt matter vs inhaling a heated aerosol, yes? Of course not. The only thing government and private enterprise seems good at these days is taking thi

I'd like to know what they controlled for. Simply navigating life in a body you don't identify with should cause psychiatric problems.

True. Maybe Ro Khanna/Massie. Honestly those good tickets have minimal support. People don't pay attention enough. Will get more establishment figures. Probably Rubio vs Newsom. No reason to vote then.

Massie was against it. Need a Massie/Bernie ticket

I'm sorry to be slightly off topic but since it's ChatGPT, anyone else find it annoying to read what the bot is thinking while it thinks? For some reason I don't want to see how the sausage is being made.

These small annoyances just keep adding up. The result, a less happy population which most likely correlates with a lower life expectancy. It's also just less and less human agency. My cars software is going to monitor and manage my be

There has always been a subset of highly technical people in the software world who are anti-organic. They dislike the "meatspace" and humans and relate more with machines and software.

I'm using a 5 year old OnePlus Nord that needs to be replaced and all of a sudden I see I have no options but Samsung, Motorola and Google. Not sure what I'll do. Does Asus still make a phone?

I sort of agree with the premise of the article. I ask myself, did more non-technical people pick up AI chat bots when they were invented than picked up personal computers in the late 70s/early 80's? I think probably. From my conv

Because his honest and accurate diagnosis for why mega tech corps treat people inhumanely is the first step towards stopping it. In my opinion of course.

Finally something interesting. I'm familiar with dead Internet theory, the whole Lindy thing where culture died in the early 2010's etc. Economy stinks, global violence everywhere. Going back to the moon is really acceptable distr

Because they want to be on the rocket. To see the moon up close with your own eyes? It's spiritual.

I agree that it's an act of state sponsored terrorism. Don't let the down votes make you feel alone.

Which is why Mazda torments me and disables my ability to remote start my car without "connected services" app installed on my phone. I've said this ad nauseam, but their TOS says they sell to 3rd parties including law enforc

I have low standards for the general population but virtually everyone knows the difference between an automated bot and human being on the phone.

Ya this whole back and forth reminds me of why I despise social media. I disagree with a few things you mentioned but have no interest arguing.

The truth is Obama whether you like him or not was the last traditional post War American President. Biden copied Trumps extremist way of Government. Biden said (totally abnormal comments for a president) "we've been patient with

My retro fitness is always crowded. I go 7 days a week. 40 minute jog. No lifting. It's nice seeing and saying hi to the same people their everyday.

I think them being locked down is a big part of their agitation. But we live in a sue first society so the school has no choice but to lock them down. It's not like the 90's when I was in school. We were allowed free reign to tink

Ya. I'm starting to this it's the content management software running over the OS and not the hardware per say.

This resonates. I'm in agony because I'm constantly up against IT and admin who seem to only care about lawsuits so they create an absolutely painful computing environment for the students. I see how using locked down slow machine

Thank you for the suggestions. I think I realize the problem after reading many of the posts. What's slowing these devices down is the management software running over them. GoGuardian and whatever else IT has on them. We also aren&#x2
