The only non-techies I know that use Chrome are those I have installed Chrome for.

Most people who "just use the computer" these days DO use edge, in my experience.

Stop breaking user space

100+ million years qualifies as right in the middle of "for long" in my book. The fact that an asteroid or comet of biblical proportions wiped them out has nothing to do with evolutionary effectiveness. Most of the animals that did survive either A) lived in water or B) lived underground.

Solvent greenback...eat the rich.

Not even Skywalker could hit that.

Like every other grand ol' projection, I believe this should be interpreted as a threat of things to come, not academic speculation.

I don't see a conundrum to be solved.

Set us apart

Not to mention refactoring support...

Draino is NOT for clearing airways!

Rather than be used for war, they’ll be used for threats of violence and propaganda

Surveillance is the word you're looking for. Take all those NSA pipelines and run them through an AI and BAM, you've got your "terrorists".

AI will be downfall of our technological society, but not because of killer robots and malevolent systems. It's going to make everyone completely and utterly incompetent at everything in life.

Generally speaking, any service or organization that has to pay youtubers or twitch streamers to drive traffic is...a racket. Avoid like the plague.

Meh. Seven can come strong on me any day. Yes I would like to copulate.

Chaotic evil

My kid sister is the same way. Bought her a quest 3 for her bday. Took 3 days to get up and running because a) she had no idea what her meta account passwords were... had always just logged in on her phone... and b) none of the forgot password functions worked because she never cleared her Gmail mailbox so it had filled up and bounced previous facebook emails landing her on their internal do not send list.

I was livid.

Responding to you because you're the most verbal here so far. I recently upgraded from an m1 pro 14" to an m2 max 16". Leagues above anything else on the market, IMO. But people still seem to be sticking to the M1 praise. Is it just market lag, or is there something about the M1 specifically?

My last raise was 10k. But that was after 7+ years of no raises (agency work, slow times). When COVID hit, our business picked up for 2 years straight and I finally convinced them it was stable enough to commit. We're a small company and they'd rather give out bonuses or assistance with personal expenses than commit to an annual salary increase (which I get), but COL has spiked in recent times, so the raise was well past due.

The number of people who fail to recognize what it (typically) means when an issue magically disappears while Simone is looking over their shoulder is absurd.

The upside is that you served your one term with dignity and got something done.

The fact that everyone thinks political action should be driven by reelection prospects and seems perfectly fine with the ill motivation and contempt for the people that goes with is a major fucking problem.
