Google search as become nothing more than a shitty AI by design. Alternative search engines are the only means to actually navigate. I can still find core material using an alternative. Don't worry, Google is now embedding that AI into

I worded a questions similar to this with a person in the finance industry. He was very receptive of AI since it is one of the easiest ways to grow stock portfolio. Say you have two assistant employees. One that reads the reports and one th

When you know you can't kill the message, kill the messenger. This is the tactic used when journalist Gary Webb started reporting on the USA involvement with selling crack to Americans so they could fund Contra insurgents in Nicaragua.

I find _yt-dlp_ to be the best ad-block solution for Youtube. One can watch it offline and archive it if value has been found. Web Brower with ad-blocking setup can still have advertisements leak through. When it does and it still does afte

To me, Christine has a stronger resemblance. The owner of the car that rebuilds it so it can kill is the equivalent of the people that prop-up Oracle and companies like them. Maximum Overdrive has a mystic comet that happens to pass by and

Don not fall into the trap of anthropomorphizing Larry Ellison. You need to think of Larry Ellison the way you think of a 1958 Plymouth Fury named Christine. You don't anthropomorphize your killer car, the killer car is just out for bl

With the following assumption being present that the runner has Bluetooth headphones connected. Wouldn't the simplistic improvement be to monitor Bluetooth single strength? Is this feature able to be disabled? I'm slow walking my

I have a F(x)tec device. It had the issue were it no longer boots when the battery is fully depleted. It also came with Android vs Linux. It is now e-waste. To my knowledge the company died off. I have a PinePhone. That was just a toy gadge

I am not worried about that all nor any down votes. Empathy for other people and the environment is a sign of intelligence. Those that don't think of how their actions affects those around them and the neighbors they will never meet no

Something like three strikes and the CEO, top executives, and three primary share holders go to jail while forcing the company to dissolve seems to be the only solution to removing bad actors in corporate settings.

Part of the _profits are up_ is synthetic while the squeeze is real. Tariffs are one of the culprits. The invalid taxes people paid are not going back to them but to the companies that sold the products and services. Price of goods are not

I got a FLX1S from FuriLabs. [0] It currently is my backup and Bluetooth music / audio player. Actually use it more than the Fairphone used for calling. Once some more of the bugs and user experience have been polished, it will be my p

Not a Lawyer. I would argue that new laws are absolutely needed. USA laws are more directed towards helping companies and hurting individuals. Example of bankruptcy is a good one. Companies can shed more liability where individuals retain i

I recommend _The Alabama Solution_ [0]. It goes into good detail how unjust the system is with for-profit prisons. Why let people out of jail when you can pay them pennies on the dollar and make millions of their forced labor? People are de

As others have pointed out Google is dropping Chrome OS for an Android AI OS that still is not out. They no longer list Chromebooks in their official store. Both Microsoft and Google are pushing AI into everything. Studies keep showing that

I would say the idea aged poorly in the USA. Older generation of politicians were more welcoming to experts in their fields. Now they reject the experts. Either to a please their voter base or for personal profit. Big grocery has more money

How is intelligence fuzziness? Which shows a sign of intelligence? "The problem is fuzzy to me." vs "The problem is understood by me." Are you aligning fuzziness with lack of information / what you know now is all y

The more I think about it the more there needs to be an ID3 equivalent to video media so the meta data is stored with-in the movie container versus a central database. Kodi and their meta helpers can create a local meta file. Next step is t

Back in my Window days. I would start the driver installation and let it sit. Open the temp folder and copy content the install extracted to a new directory. Cancel the installation. Open Device Manager and install the drivers from there so

Words matter to me. This why I say "consumed" vs read. Audiobooks are great for walks and long car drives.

Too big to fail is an oxymorononic statement. Bailing out bad businesses retains those that poorly managed them. Those organizations should of been sold off to remove the bad actors. AI is currently a sunk cost to the US stock industry that

This is false assumption that billionaires are useful. You don't need billionaires for companies to provide common good. Billionaires are more likely to buy up existing companies to maximize their profits than create anything new. Unio

Common good != making money! Exploitation of working class != common good! Replacing product quality indigence with poor quality and substitutions != common good! Hording money != common good. Friedman doctrine != common good. Power to harm

Not according to the Friedman doctrine, which more and more companies are latching onto under capitalism [0]. I would also add that rejecting PE as not being apart of capitalism is rejecting reality. It is here and unfortunately to stay. We

I hate to break it to you. Private Equity does not care about the common good, only profits. They only bow to increase price and out side of medicine, reduce the qualifying of the product. Want common good, start creating disdain for the we

BoA reauthorized an auto-payment card even with the card being expiration and uncorrected security code. I would call that authorized fraud by Bank of American. This is why I find it best to declare a card stolen right before expiration or
