Maybe we just don't need it? Our closest apps to AI are Siri and whatever the Android voice app is. All they do is retrieve information. Same as a google search. Nearly everyone under 30 (and quite a few over that) grew up with computers and most know how to use them. True turing AI at this point would only really benefit people who don't know how to find information themselves.

The hack happened 5 days ago, and this is the first statement even confirming it happened. That's a long time on the internet.

I brought a dvd/cd drive 4 or 5 years ago. I only ever use it about once a year when I get new hardware and need to install drivers (which I then update from the 'net). I'm sure at some point hardware will come with a usb install instead of an optical disc, but atm it's going the way of the floppy drive.

If you've got old hardware, install an older version. If you've got a computer without a cd drive, install an os that can boot from floppies.

Video didn't work for me either on chrome. Direct link does.

How many people went up and down the stairs several times and messed up the traffic?

Same. My 'dumbphone' also has a torch, FM radio and a few games, but I wouldn't miss them if it didn't. The most attractive feature is the week+ long battery life.

People creating a public disturbance by flipping off CCTV cameras.

I managed to have a short chat.

I wasn't fooled.

No, I'm not joking - I'm ignorant.

This is a great discovery, but what are we going to do with it? The obvious thing is to mine it out, but wouldn't lightening the mass of the moon have a (probably quite bad) effect on it's tidal effects to the earth?

Instead of dupes, ./ are now reporting the future. The extra load on the servers from people checking if it's up or not will take it down.
