It was already very famous because they called it unsinkable and then it sank on its maiden voyage.

Are we allowed to tell him?

I’m using Visible unlimited for $30 a month. As soon as I signed up Verizon bought them, but it’s been fun for a couple years now.

And every breath that is in your lungs is a tiny little gift to me.

And the band members were in their 20s when they wrote this song. Old souls.

They are so poor and so small that they can’t curate the content and ads, it’s just too much with only billions of dollars of profit to work with.

VPN plus cheap YouTube is probably less than YouTube. And VPN is useful for more than just YouTube.

If that doesn’t work then reverse the polarity.

I wouldn’t give them a photo ID, but I do give them my bank account details. I just give them the number of an account that I use only for PayPal.

Corporations are so large now they can do outrageous things like this and they will still have millions or billions of users who don’t care. Plus they have learned that bad press is free advertising.

I think people just want something to do and some encouraging people around them.

Starfield has a lot of good aspects, but also some bone-headed gameplay and content decisions. I had a lot of fun with it for a few weeks and will come back to it if/when it gets to a better state.

Same. With my driving needs I get fuel about every 2 weeks so it’s not a big burden. And I go on several long road trips each year and charging stations are not something I need to deal with.

Not only that but they can identify you by your cell phone and see if you are a high income person or big spender, and change the prices as you walk down the aisles.

Yeah the hallucinations could be very useful for art and creative stepping stones. But not as much for factual information.

The online requirements are unnerving to me. I feel like Microsoft wants my personal files. I don’t think it’s to outright steal or scam, but there is something in everyone’s data they want. Maybe AI training. Anyway I’m not giving it up willingly.

They should also remove the letters T, W, I, E, and R just so no trace of Twitter remains.

Yeah it’s the old garbage in, garbage out problem, the AI algorithms don’t really understand what they are outputting.

I think at this point voice recognition and text generation AI would be more useful as something like a phone assistant. You could tell it complex things like “Mute my phone for the next 2 hours” or “Notify me if I receive an email from John Smith.” Those sort of things could be easily done by AI algorithms that A) Understand your voice and B) Are programmed to know all the features of the OS. Hopefully with a known dataset like a phone OS there shouldn’t be hallucination problems, the AI could just act as an OS concierge.

Thanks. I’ve never tried VR before so I might not know what I’m missing.

I didn’t buy it, but I was at Cooter’s Garage near Luray VA this spring and on the wall was a big cool detailed map with a bunch of motorcycle routes and bars, restaurants, and attractions to see all over WV, VA, and OH. I asked if they had it for sale and the lady said, no, but there was a little smaller version available with the brochures. So I got a folded-up one that’s still neat.
