Are your garbage bins not precisely in the location required by your home owners' association? Lawn a trifle too long, or maybe cut with an unapproved pattern?
Do you live in a "border" city, i.e. one that is within 100 miles of a coast, land border or international airport? Have you been engaging in antisocial behaviour such as gathering in groups and/or protesting outside of designated free speech zones?
Have you carried identifiable literature or membership insignia from a non-state sanctioned organization, or entered or exited a known or suspected meeting place of such an organization or residence of known or suspected members of such an organization?
Consumer surveys show people perceive conventional meat as tastier and healthier than lab-grown alternatives.
Let's assume that they are right, because why wouldn't they? It does make sense that muscles grown in a lab are not identical to muscles constantly used by the animal. That there's more to biology than cell division. We already know that what the animal eats has an effect on the taste of its meat. Of course there's a difference if it never ate anything and isn't actually an animal.
And then there's the idiots who tried to turn us all into vegetarians by labelling their non-meat products as "steaks" or "burgers" or whatever. You know, instead of using proper names that are not intentionally confusing. Many of us tried - intentionally or otherwise - these "meat replacement" products and found out that they taste nothing like the real thing and at least half of them are simply disgusting. Of course we're now more careful with meat alternatives.
And the problem with venture capital is that it'll go elsewhere if you are just moderately successul, because that doesn't cut it. They want their investments to be the next Google or Facebook.
Tell that to Elon.
Spotify has already responded by requiring songs to hit at least 1,000 plays in the previous 12 months to qualify for royalties, and Luminate reported that 88% of tracks received 1,000 or fewer plays in 2025.
So thanks to AI, Spotify has essentially eliminated itself as a platform for small, niche artists.
It does pretty well writing documentation.
Lots of people are chasing the no-code dream but something that helps out with the stuff everybody hates doing would be super useful. The world uses a LOT of documentation too, far beyond just software.
Our nation requires that our partners be willing to help our warfighters win in any fight.
Makes you wonder what they refused to do that made Pete so mad.
Sure. But I don't have to make it any easier for Zuck, right?
Why are you attributing this story to The Register, when all your links are to somewhere else?
Telcos that were also looking to push AI-enabled customer premises equipment -- requiring even more compute and memory content -- face additional headwinds.
Maybe you should run the summary through an LLM and ask for a summary?
Also, why are you so upset? General bad day? Work for a telco?
Proton and Standard Notes seem to have gone in together to write their editors.
It's not particularly hard to write a spreadsheet or word processor. It's not even hard to write one that runs in a web browser. Supporting Microsoft's document formats is hard, but that seems like an argument in favour of the EU developing their own standard, not against.
Oh my, you mean we're finally going to get internet connections now that we have AI?
Suspicious hey? One of the guys convicted for Iran-Contra comes up with the idea while heading a DARPA information warfare project. His "Policy Analysis Market" gets panned by the media and everything gets shut down.
A decade and a half later, "Polymarket" launches.
For exactly what benefit?
Names
Face recognition is the one feature I want in a wearable. I have a great memory for faces and a shit memory for names. I can look at a crowded room and spot the three people I know. I couldn't for the life of me tell their names unless they are close friends.
If I could get a tech device telling me just their names, I would be happy. I don't need their FB profile or such. I don't need the names of people I don't know.
That said, I'd rather go without than having Facebook handle that. Nope, you can fuck right off, Zuckerberg.
Depends who's problem it's trying to solve.
I don't like the telco's box running my network. I really wouldn't like the telco's box with a bunch of processing capability and AI "features" running my network. I doubt they'd pay to install something like that in your house unless it was doing them some good though.
If a train station is a place where a train stops, what's a workstation?
