That's likely part of the problem.

It stocked a bunch of cool nifty things that people talk about but don't necessarily want to buy (or buy many of/often).

The museum gift shop description sounds like that to me anyway. Like I bet it has rope loop guns there.

Sort of like what thinkgeek was back in the day.

My friend's daughter already does this for a local supermarket.

She fulfills online orders meant to be picked up completed. It's not a terrible job either.

I suspect the audrino hobbyist market is functionally zero relative to radio shacks footprint. It'd be essentially the same as the business closing financially.

I think AI is a great term.

It's ARTIFICIAL intelligence. It's not real intelligence.

The problem is somehow people think it means real intelligence and treat it as such.

A tourist to San Francisco probably thinks it's like LA since that's the majority of what we see in media too (Hollywood being there and all).

Of all you've seen is surfing, beaches, and partying in open courtyards: San Francisco can definitely be a shock.

I've been to both.

Windy and 0degrees f in a NY winter is much colder.

Which isn't to say that temperatures in the 50s (especially after a sunny day) aren't light jacket weather. But NY winters are brutal. I've never felt the cold of sleety 35 degree day with high winds in San Francisco. To say nothing of a windy sub zero night.

That's no longer true.

People getting home from work and cranking up the AC tends to be more demand than daytime in modern times.

Does it have an internal cellular?

Without prior warning

Not only did they add a "no class action lawsuit" clause, but they locked you out of all your already-downloaded smart tv apps like youtube until you did so.

I find the fact that it can play some games interesting and there's probably something to follow up there for those smarter than me.

(Though I don't care enough to see how well it plays the games it's "good" at).

If you need a legally gray area (at best) third party website to use a service, i don't know how that's somehow a net positive

I think it's more:

Company falling behind in AI tells everyone "let's slow down".

My understanding is that they're pretty similar in performance and an order of magnitude more expensive than the Chinese models (some of which are open weight), and behind Anthropic and even Alphabet now for work.

For me, I want a newer smaller and lighter iPhone like mini, SE, 4S, etc. 13 mini is starting to get old and slow!
