That's why I don't trust them, or anyone. You especially cannot trust phones, since you don't get the code running on the baseband processor even in the best cases — they're not allowed to give it to you.

That's always been a facile look at alliances. The enemy of my enemy is only my temporary ally unless we actually have a reason to be allied long term.

China is not your friend. They just want your money, same as OpenAI or whoever.

The anti-AI-DC attitude has legs because it makes sense, not because of ad campaigns. Maggots prove every day that you can agitate people to work against their own interests, but that doesn't mean that's what this is. If China is spending money agitating people against bullshit DCs, it's only working because they are in fact bullshit.

And the gaming industry created this problem, by not allowing you to do something useful with your console once it's no longer useful as a console, by locking it down and never providing an unlock. Thousands of us hacked our Xboxes and used them as media centers, then Microsoft made this infeasible going forwards. Sony did the same with the PS3 and "Other OS." Nintendo has just always been locked down AF, but we used to have some freedom with some of the game boys... so much for that.

I have zero reason to buy a console because it has zero value after it's been a console for me.

You also don't hire a PhD who might decide to enter an empty elevator shaft. But that's what every LLM is. You cannot expect it to do anything sane, it's just thoughts and prayers.

The cost is unpredictable as long as the behavior is unpredictable.

It's pretty hard to imagine ads covering the costs when the platform is erratic and might say the products being advertised are the best things ever, or it might say they will murder your dog and fuck your mom.

I don't "trust" any of these providers. I expect them to fuck me. I just don't get the option to use none of them if I want to participate in modern society.

Which issues? Not being able to trust that the code doesn't do things which are intentionally malicious? It's as close as you can get. Literally all closed source software is less trustworthy.

I don't forget. This shit plan comes from shit "people".

(Nazis' whole thing is dehumanizing others, no one deserves it more)

Get fucked, hipster shitlord.

As other comments have pointed out, there have been killbots since the 1970s.

This is just a cheaper killbot. That's news, it might even be a paradigm shift, but it's not a fundamental difference in what is occurring.

As long as Russia is attacking Ukraine, attacking Russia is defending Ukraine.

This is not complicated.

All Russia has to do for the attacks on Russia to stop is stop attacking Ukraine.

It's not just you. There's lots of other clowns just like you who think allowing Russia to continue attacking Ukraine is perfectly OK.

ICE has all the training they need to carry out their mission of terrorism.

Hey cultists: Where's the medical reports of when Trump was allegedly shot? How come he never talks about the people who tried to kill him when he cries constantly about people being mean to him? You fucking absolute clown fucks.

Someone came along to mod me down for complaining about literally the worst software company in all history. Rent free!

My favorite thing is how when I open an office document when I've got one already open in that program, the other window MAY (or may not) un-maximize and rise to the top before the new window appears. That doesn't fuck up my workflow or anything... wait, yes it does, it fucks it right in the ass.

I also especially like how Outlook appointment notifications usually don't come to the top even when you're not typing, they just show up under other Office windows, and cause the taskbar icon to flash. They occasionally work correctly.
