Tell us you didn't understand the statement without telling us.

Double down on telling us you understand nothing about this conversation. You actually manage people? Here's how it works: Until AI can pay for itself, it's a net negative. You're chained to a rock sitting on a melting ice floe.

Yes, they are, and nuclear has shitty lifetime emissions if you count the mining and processing and transportation and decommissioning activities.

People are trained not to think, in a shrink-wrapped world where everything is presumed safe, right up you wind up in the hospital from E.Coli because a hundred farms' produce all goes through one inadequately cleaned machine before being put into the clear plastic packages.

Google has you covered there, they will simultaneously return search results which are garbage and an AI response which will also be garbage.

Apparently lots of people. That is really stupid. It's also against the T&C but in fairness nobody reads those because they are biblically long, which ought to be illegal itself.

Six?

I can see benefits to all form factors, and letting users choose, but that means I also think they should be able to choose which UI they want to use. I can see the argument for locking the phone into a phone UI, at least while making calls, but otherwise I find the whole idea gross.

Apple was right that suckers would pay for a laptop and then pay again for a tablet with the same kernel but a different UI.

I find it's usually when I'm standing over the computer, like using it in passing. It's handy when cooking. Otherwise it's not very useful as you say. Though sometimes I would rather just touch the screen than use the trackpad, which I'm not used to. My work laptop has touch and I use it now and then.

We could put a mylar mirror at L1. They did it to increase insolation of Mars in KSR's trilogy, but you could use the same idea to reduce it. It's theoretically possible to do it with modern tech, though we certainly won't as it would require cooperation

I've transported a lot of that type of stuff in a minivan, using a tarp to keep it clean. Also you can put the Xmas tree on the roof rack. Those micro bed pickups can do basically one potentially relevant thing that a van can't, which is carry a fridge upright. Usually though you can get free delivery for something that expensive. I guess if you buy a lot of used refrigerators they might be handy?

It's where almost everything on Amazon comes from. (Albeit often in quantity from their other site Alibaba.)

My first boss in tech used a Kinesis keyboard. He blamed his severe carpal on emacs.

"They also have to certify these app stores, they aren't just going to let anyone set one up and start distributing malware or pirate streaming apps."

Yeah, you have to put those apps on their app store so they can benefit.

I joke slightly, though they have distributed malware before.

Conspiracies are the norm and not the exception. The wealthy meet in private clubs and offices and discuss how we will live our lives for their benefit. Are you new?
