Don’t know as I’d call “find out who has better prices” AI, but it doesn’t seem like they’re letting OpenAI hallucinate deals.
Instead of a “renaissance man”, I’m a “renaissance nerd”. Pinball? Sure. Sci-fi? Of course. video games? Natch. 70’s Italian Prog-rock? A raison d’etre.

J.D., is that you?
Courage! Think(ing) Different!
So very glad they were able to release it. The whole ‘um, we don’t have that kind of equipment” was lame
Was originally sure if funny or ad, but the site resolves so I’m saying ad
Yeah, I know I’ve seen some bands release right before BCF to make the most of it.
That’s what I do. Find stuff over the month, give it some listens to see if it sticks, then buy baby buy. :)
Bandcamp Friday. 100% of the money goes to the artist on the First Friday of (most) months.
Notifications of new content are nice.
The sandwich at that restaurant (or the one across the road and down 1/10th of a mile, not sure which you were at) was amazing. Some sort of puff pastry with tomato and mozzarella. Tourist, schmourist, that was fantastic
The article feels like it does have an agenda. The tech itself may be solid, but the way they phrase certain things makes it seem like this is some sort of “but big Pharma would kill it“ conspiracy article. Personally, I’ve wondered why we’re not doing more with UV pre/during/post-pandemic, although I’ve never heard of “far-UV”,
But an interesting read nonetheless
Font looks like Sam’s, and I saw similar Christmas stuff there recently
Car company 1: would you want a BIG MANLY TRUCK made out of the same thing as a COKE CAN?! EWWW
Car company 2: you want your BIG MANLY TRUCK made out of the same thing as a FIGHTER JET! FREEDUMMMMMM!
I’d argue yes. And it’s still a combination of “exceedingly competent and yes still incompetent in other ways”. The intelligence is here, to paraphrase William Gibson, it’s just unevenly distributed
Sure, years later. They flew the stealth fighter f-117a around in Nevada for 10 years before it became public knowledge. The government is simultaneously capable and incapable. Different groups have different responsibilities, different budgets, different helpers and detractors, etc.
Same thing with Trump. He is simultaneously capable and incapable. He can barely put sentences together, but has like-minded people who are less incompetent, able to push extreme policies through. And there are other groups using him as a tool as well. They don’t care about and will shove him once he’s no longer useful. But he’s very good at taking attention away from other things.
Overall you’re right. But there are some notable exceptions. Arguably Iran/Contra, the CIA spying on all phone calls, the Drug War. But the big one would be The Manhattan Project, since it employed literally hundreds of thousands of people.
Thanks for the info. Yeah, that support is even better than I’d thought, and it was already top-tier
Huh? I was pretty sure it’d fall out of OS support this year. And without security patches, shudder
Go do the demo. It is honestly really impressive. Had no intention of doing it, I’m not the target demographic or audience, but I was there to get a battery replaced and while I waited they did it. My jaw dropped at least twice.
I’m at a loss for the kind of things it can do for me day-to-day right now (and yeah, they have to come up with good selling points there), but for a virtual desktop I’d be there if it were cheaper. But you kinda see where they’re heading - glasses where you could read the web, check weather, watch tv, or play games, the UI, and the phone is just a computing brick that sits in your pocket all day
That article reads like the AI wrote it
