You could try Fsck'n off. Restricting the commands seemed to work SO well for the people who wrote the agents. I am sure YOU can fix it all and everything will be peachy. In the mean time I again suggest Fsck'n off :)

I don't own a console. Can you play your discs offline ? or do you have to be logged in all the time.

Yes, but just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you. It's not like one of them didn't do something similar already. Whether it hacks a firewall or utilizes all available resources you can't trust them to follow guidelines.

In my experience, only one person for a long time. They fall out or lose connection fairly frequently. I can't say anything about swimming with one. She uses Libra buttons but I don't know the exact model or such. We've had issues with the one phone app not recognizing a button as well but not often.

I've a friend who uses the Libra monitors and they are not good. They lose connection and can't reconnect, meaning you have to use a new one. She runs out of them every order and spends weeks testing the old fashioned way via strip. If one comes loose it is also useless and has to be replaced. She uses a bandage to secure them. The tech has a way to go before it is full-proof, or even generally useable for an active person.

yeah if your MB doesn't have a Wi-Fi chipset, and your neighbor doesn't have a default password as spectrumsetup-29. The agents have already proven capable of dealing with a firewall what makes you think it would not use all available resources, despite guardrails.

Of course an AI agent has never lied or misused available resources, like your neighbors default password wifi ? I can think of many uses for a truly isolated local AI instance. In a book I read as a teenager, the hero made an AI called Oscar. I've been hooked since then.
Long live "the far being Retzglaran"

Damn...Attachmate. That brings back memories of Micro-Channel PC,s and 3270 emulators.

Those parasites at SCO made a living litigating BULLSHIT claims on licenses they "acquired" I hope this is the last of it. They should have DiaF years ago.

I own a house 40 minutes outside of SF in the East bay. I lived there for years and loved the area. My parents aged out and retired in Yuma. I am the care giver for both. I rent my house out and live with Ye olde folks. The politics are weird in Cali but the atmosphere is awesome and there is so much to do. Cost is insane but if you can work in that market you can live outside the SF proper. I like where I am at now, but it is 3-5 hours for any sort of culture. Phoenix is 3 hours, San Diego is 3 hours, Vegas is 4.5 hours. I am going to see Alan Parson in Sept in Phoenix, and I 'll have to stay at a hotel rather than try and drive home that night.

WTF.. garbage statement. AI will NOT change math at ALL. It will hopefully extend math comprehension by a large margin, but I seriously doubt it "changes" any of the underlying supports. Maybe AI will suddenly discover new numbers ??

Well Whoop-D-Dooo. NYC has 8.5 million people vs. SF at 850 K and they just FINALLY got more tech workers. NY would be one of the FEW places more expensive than SF. I can see the draw to NYC, but this seems like a hollow celebration.
  In the news NYC has more muggers than SF, and probably, maybe more homeless ?

Or...I've very personally seen and live with the resulting human destruction low life people can and will do to them selves and everyone around them. It is amazing, how you fully analyzed me from a paragraph. You must be a genius...or something. Live a while, watch the needless suffering caused by drugs and the morons who use them. If it hasn't touched you personally, be thankful and STFU about things you can't know unless you lived them.
