Exactly this. Airlines are now essentially banks with a side hustle flying planes.

I've used Firefox Beta as my primary browser on my Android phones for years and have never encountered this. Maybe there's an issue with some specific features used by sites I don't visit. Doesn't prove anything but I guess one anecdote deserves another.

> Sure, do this instead of better tech

Regardless of what you think of the new mascot, do you really think the same people responsible for drawing pretty pictures of foxes are the same ones designing "better tech" and writing code and fixing bugs? Groups of people can do more than one thing at a time.

And I'd guess this is also an attempt to raise some money and awareness to the browser. At this point it doesn't matter how great Firefox "tech" is, they have lost the popularity context against Chrome and Chromium knockoffs, and will never get it back. Google will do and spend whatever it takes to keep Chrome on top, so Mozilla is probably looking for ways to at least retain what they have and keep the lights on.

Yeah, the last thing you need after spending an hour in the store getting groceries for a couple of weeks is to be refused the ability to pay at the checkout.

That's what I just said, isn't it?

Robots do not consider such biological things as 'feelings'.

Dude, what? You really think the fire alarm doesn't make the gate swing wide open? Or people can run out past the cashier? Or people can just force the gate open and ignore the alarm?

Umm, yes? At the supermarket, at least, you can't really leave without going past the cashier. Now, if you don't have a cart with you you can normally scoot past people with a couple of apologies for the hassle, but otherwise yeah - you get in line to get out.

In Denmark we don't even have to sign it; lack of response is considered agreement to the calculations.

Last line of the summary:

Although users can "abandon the accounts and start again with new Apple IDs," the report notes that doing so means losing all purchased apps, along with potentially years' worth of photos and videos.

Also 'hundreds of thousands of people every week' != 'extremely rare'.

It'll make characters and levels that are deemed 'good enough' and shipped as slop. That it takes a Geforce 7090 to render a NES-era Mario sprite isn't the company's problem.

Then when did the cops get the picture to show the suspect? On the way to the scene? While approaching with guns drawn? While searching him after handcuffing him? Did the AI forward a description of the suspect instead of the picture?

Hell, his duty is to sit behind his desk, read reports, sign things, and have meetings with his advisors. It's not to be on camera 24/7 like a third rate reality TV star.
