What you said was dumb because what we need is to reduce emissions further than our weak targets. Also automakers do NOT have any trouble meeting the targets. They could have met those targets years ago, but they would have had to make less exciting vehicles. You're putting your excitement over sustainability. This explains why you support a child molester's tampering with the future.
You cannot make a market freer by removing all regulations. That's a total misunderstanding of how markets work.

The proper approach would be to allow customers to try the AI tools for free and give honest feedback
(etc.)
That's all true if your goal is to serve customers, as opposed to spying on them.
But I'd really love to know how exactly how many of these things were sold? A dozen? 500? Thousands? Feels like there is an econ or finance study about consumer behavior buried in the customer base of such an item.
Mainly just folks with disposable incomes who like tech? Someone with cancer risk really convinced this will work? The most expensive Spencers gag gift? "I could look it up myself but I don't want to have to look at my own poop?"
The idea that humans in 2100 will politely sit on their hands while the planet burns is genuinely adorable.
It's happening now. There are serious effects now. And there is mostly a lot of thumb-sitting going on.
Humans invent things.
Yes, for profit.
AI is already chewing through research faster than half the committees publishing these forecasts.
AI is chewing through NATURAL RESOURCES faster.
Pretending society wonâ(TM)t respond, wonâ(TM)t adapt and wonâ(TM)t innovate is probably the most unrealistic assumption in the whole exercise.
We don't have to pretend, we can see it happening right now. Or rather, not happening.
For example if you need to get call records months after the fact, with prepaid, tough shit, they don't have them at all.
Nonsense.
Want HD calling? Prepaid got it years after postpaid.
Why would I care? I don't speak a language for which call quality matters.
Paying three times as much or more for someone else to keep records for you is dumb. My phone keeps records for me.
We've seen even Microsoft's own ARM laptops chug trying to emulate x86 software
Using the word "even" here implies that we would expect Microsoft to be competent, but no one with experience with Microsoft expects that.
Thanks Obama/Trump/Biden/Trump!
Expect a leveling off of consumer hardware, both in terms of RAM capacity but also in processing performance.
Browser developers are going to have to accept that a tabs can't be allowed to eat 1 GB+ each, and start optimizing software instead of expecting users to throw more hardware at it.
Sadly, I know that browsers are just going to go into some kind of Cloud AI navel gaze and it may be years before they get back to making useful software.
Is this some kind of German humor?
That they just gave $6.25 billion to provide better futures for other people's children does make a difference to me
They didn't give it to children, they gave it to the Trump administration on the promise they will give it to children. If Dell always wanted to give money to children there has been nothing stopping him at any point from doing any number of things. Why this?
It strikes me as profoundly unhealthy to introduce political resentment into an apolitical decision. Especially if what you resent is someone giving billions of their own dollars to children. I mean, that's just frikkin sick.
Nah, we do it all the time. And please stop with the "won't somebody please think of the children" virtue signalling because again, this isn't charity, this is giving money to a political actor and political regime. Did Dell publically decry the Republicans stripping the expanded CTC which took away thousands of dollars more than this plan will ever give back and was lowering childhood poverty rates? No he didn't.
