Comment Re: "One time download"? (Score 1) 93

Well, I bought Triggerheart Exclica on Xbox Live Arcade back in 2006 on an Xbox 360.

I can go download that game, right now, on my Series X, because, gasp, it's the same account.

So if I were to buy GTA VI for Series X in a few months, and type the download code into the 'redeem code' box, it ties that code to my account. See?

I read it that way as well. They're still clinging to the belief that they can do exactly that.

Thankfully, that's not likely to come to fruition. The experienced engineers hold the cards now and whether that AI gets trained is entirely up to them. When push comes to shove, the Ford senior leadership isn't going to try that again no matter what they say publicly.

It’s a sunk cost for them—time and money have already gone into putting it in place, and taking it out would just mean less security in a world that’s only going to need more of it, especially with AI-driven attacks from increasingly hostile actors. In the end, like most things, it comes down to money—similar to when Intel set its CPUs apart with features like virtualization or ECC. Now, people will simply move to other CPUs or alternative chipsets.

Sigh. Can you cut out the "prescribed drugs are bad because they must be bad" bullshit?

ADHD stimulants absolutely do not work as _enhancers_, as your article explains. But they are not used as enhancers, they are used as medicine to fix problems. As another example: vitamin C does pretty much nothing normally, but if you have scurvy, it's life-saving. Here's an important quote from your article:

ADHD undergraduates are capable of performing just as well in college as their non-ADHD peers, if they acquire well-established effective study habits

Which basically says: "ADHD drugs are not needed if you can fix all the symptoms of ADHD without drugs". Well, duh.
