The Meta AI(s) that regular people will use are being thwarted by this dipshit. The next time you think you have something clever to say, just trust me, you don't.

He is clearly able to just block the queries. Intentionally making systems that humans who have no connection to Meta will use isn't pissing in Meta's cereal bowl ... which I am for 100%; it pisses in everyone's bowl.

I know you're trying to be sarcastic, but the truth is, we Europeans are only going to get through these times of de-globalization, demographic decline and power-shifts together. The UK would've been far better off throwing their weight behind EU issues that need solving rather than using the EU as a cheap scapegoat for the elites grabbing a paycheck and lining their pockets.

LOL ... When I read the "we have the technology" part of their post I immediately thought of the intro to "The Bionic Man" as well. For those who are constantly misusing the term meme: this phenomenon is the result of a real meme.

To complete your correct reasoning, bend cucumbers are also Class 2, the reason is you get less in a package thus transport would be more expensive (and less economic).

Well spoken!

[disclaimer: continental European here] ... but I think it's safe to say that even proud EU citizens are surprised at how the UK seems totally and irreversibly shafted at this point. No gloating here, it's really painful to watch.

Here's a perfect expert analysis of Brexit and it's outsomes in 90 seconds.

The cascading effects have already kicked in. Which means that the more "pessimistic" scientists were right. Or at least more right than others. Those target numbers always seemed a little lenient to me anyway.

So true. Sadly these days the market can stay irrational almost indefinitely. The factors that helped constrain this irrationality, like actual government oversight and discipline of equities and debt, willingness to let large corporations fail, and investor discipline in discerning real growth from financial games have all been eroded.

I have no idea when valuations will fall, and I wouldn't want to be better on a market that has no basis in fundamentals at all.

... ice land? Am I getting this right? 8-)

Same here, a nice tool this One+ Tab2.

I get that you are new here but this is literally the reason for the "Ask Slashdot" category on Slashdot. Complaining that some one used "Ask Slashdot" to ... wait for it, ... ask the Slashdot community a question, is completely asinine.

This isn't going to happen because anyone with the skills to do it has already learned the lesson: "Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should."

They are the plaintiff in this case. They're still stuck in the steam age of media technology and royalty mechanisms. Rulings and concepts from the 50ies and 60ies. Super annoying. You don't want to get pissy with them because they have a de-facto government mandated monopoly on collecting royalties. Quasi a semi private semi official body for that exact purpose.

This really requires a lot of faith. I can't blame people for having some but we're talking about putting all the eggs into one pretty speculative basket. I'd sure like to opt out of being impacted by this, if possible. If that means I "miss out," I am ok with that.
