I want buttons with two sides, buttons with multiple steps, I want buttons on buttons! Give me buttons made of shirt buttons, one button, two buttons, red buttons, blue buttons. BUTTONS!

No, she doesn't mean heterosexuals. Because most heterosexuals don't have a problem with LGBT+.

She means bigots. She means that she expects tolerance and respect for the bigotry, so that she can continue to tell people being LGBT+ is a sin and bad for children or whatever.

It's an argument in bad faith.

I could see that. AI seems like an expensive solution to just getting people to stop clicking "reply all" though.

Kinda crazy that the easier solution may not be changing people's behavior, but creating an entire system capable of reading and understanding text.

What are you talking about? Those books have never existed. Only the books on this list are the books that exist.

Nothing it does is anything we haven't seen before. And if Siri is any indication, it won't be all that useful in the real world.

The problem I see with AI is that it seemingly takes just as long to figure out how to ask the AI what you want as it takes going into the app and just reading an email or writing a message. And then when it summarizes, how can you really trust that it hasn't misconstrued something that you could have caught by reading it?

It's also a symptom of the way American cities and suburbs are designed. Where are the third places where you can walk to for hanging out after work? Where are the parks with restaurants, events, space for exercise? And even if they do exist, you're packing up your car to be outside maybe once a week (because it's a big thing to get your kid in the car) instead of just stepping out of the house.

Living life in most of the US is designed to feel lonely.

I feel like aside from full-on accessibility settings for those who need them (which absolutely should be implemented and the FromSoft devs don't get a pass on this), they could do something as simple as a 2% speed, health, & damage nerf to all their enemies and it could be enough for most newcomers that have paid for the game, but didn't get anything out of it. Like me. There are probably a huge amount of people that bought the game because of glowing "this is GOTY" reviews and couldn't get past even Margit.

He's this little shit

I'm sorry, their problem is that the massive trucks are somehow in danger because they weren't designed to handle being hit by a vehicle less than half its size?

What a ridiculous statement.

We need to require special licenses for those behemoths.

I'd prefer they get banned entirely because there's really no practical use for them that isn't solved by some other commercial vehicle.

They seem to be in the same situation as Fry's Electronics. I worked with them the year before they closed and it was exactly as you describe. The shelves were barely stocked, there weren't enough people, the quality of products went way down.

It's sad because Best Buy is basically the only place to go to see things in person before buying them. It's important for TVs, Monitors, Laptops, Keyboards, and more.

It wouldn't surprise me if they close down for good within a decade.

Does Horse not really translate to English?

It would be far from "slavery" in the typical sense.

If this happened, those people would get food, housing, healthcare and job training while getting paid for it.

Though I'm definitely not in favor of conscription because how can you call yourself free if you're required to do involuntary military work for the government.

It's about the restrictions they put in place on those who have bought their products. They make it extremely hard to leave their ecosystem, overcharge for services, and prevent interoperability with other products.

They're only just now allowing RCS to try getting out ahead of these lawsuits. But they still don't allow side-loading (forcing developers to use their store so they can charge 30% on all sales), don't allow third-party app stores, and don't allow third-party browser engines (forcing everyone to reskin Safari).

Plus, in the US, Apple has 55% market share as just one company. The next highest is Samsung at 25%.

So yeah, they can play monopolistic games.

The conservatives are going to run with this, and talk about it endlessly, while the rest of us really don't give two shits about Hunter Biden.

I thought it was some sort of emulation engine that I hadn't heard about.

Dumbass Musk ruined Twitter's brand recognition so badly.

It's so asinine for them not to allow side-loading and third-party browser engines outside the EU.

It's more difficult system administration just for them to maintain control.

It's like conservatives using "Let's Go Brandon" so that they avoid the appearance of impropriety, when really, they're just self-censoring because they're too scared to say it outright.

Where is Life and how do I make them pay for what they've done to me?

Pretty sure my wet farts would be more popular than Ron DeSantis.
