Every song written by humans was created with the influence of every song they ever listened to. No different than AI.

IF everyone you meet us dysfunctional, then Occom's razor implies it's a you problem.

"her expecting me to read her mind and magically know how to please her in every way, (a very long list), was always a factor.
"
oh, so by dating you mean watched 80's comedians all day . got it.

"the world by and large wants there to be marriage and family."
I like that you speak you nonsense for the entire globe.

IT's a simple issue. The internet has lead to people spending all most all there free time at home, usually failing into echo chambers and never learning good social skills.
As people gain wealth, we don't need kids to survive as much. This is a good thing.

". They are legal minefields and financial minefields."
lol.

Not by chances. over 10,000 year ago humans started domesticating them. Part of the was human moving to an agriculture society.
They were useful tools for dealing with rodents.

AI is nothing like nicotine.

Israel consistently breaks every cease fire. You won't have to wait long.

Oh, did Naziyahoo stop sending them money?

They expect people to not know, and they are taking advantage of them. You are forgetting that the average person knows how fucking nothing works.

I'll go ahead and accept those percentages, but only with the caveat that this reality is based on the pervasive, dominant paradigm of not questioning authority.

Because around half the country either doesn't believe that's happening or is in favor of it happening, and "their" side is in control.

Read the 13th and tell us which one we are

A lot of people seem to think that if someone's telling them they love them, it must be true. I don't think they were raised to think.

Speaking from personal experience of both the good and bad kind, you only have successful relationships when they do make sense, and you're not participating out of desperation.

You inserted that into the conversation. Have fun with your mobile goalposts.

Besides using fingerprinting for networked devices, mostly the information on what's being used is out there anyway. BSDs used to be massively popular because they were what ran on what you had when you had pretty much anything. Now that's Linux, some version of it anyway. And if anyone really cares, they can dust off those old architectures on some kernel version.

The BSD license was favorable enough in its time, and it led BSD to significant success. But it didn't protect the people and corporations willing to give away the most code, which is why Linux dominated. Now it enjoys network effects. Why would I not want things to work as much the same as possible on everything I need to work with? Especially since it runs on everything.

Yes, there is still BSD out there, but there's very little reason for someone to use it as the basis of a product except wanting the option to abuse their user base. Apple went with NeXTStep not just because of The Jobs, but also because of the appeal of the license. It matches walled gardens.

Because the dictionary publishers didn't copy all those works into their training corpus

They didn't write the ad copy that way on purpose.
