Walmart is moving away... openAI is discontinuing.

Walmart will embed its own AI... inside ChatGPT? With a similar system inside Gemini next month?

Users will complete purchases within Walmart's system.

What a whole lot of nonsense.

Can you build another AI to summarize all that useless shit? Fucking thing bloviates worse than a politician.

An identity scheme will be the end of Reddit. This I can guarantee.

But if it were to happen, I'm taking bets on the replacement. Where will the Reddit users flock to? There are already at least a couple of similar sites even using the Reddit code.

I see you like to argue semantics.

Ask anyone in Cuba what they call the embargo. They have always called it el bloqueo(the blockade). But that is just an nonsense argument. The clear intent of my comment was that el bloqueo has not been their problem for the last several decades, despite the claims of many. Their problem is that they have no money.

The U.S. is currently denying fuel ships, only. All other shipping continues unaffected. Which is how they are able to get solar panels from China.

But, you keep arguing semantics and ignoring the main point of my comment. That Cuba's primary issue in acquiring whatever they desire is a lack of money and having nothing of significance to export. The recent fuel crisis is ummm... recent. Cuba's problems have existed uninterrupted since the country collapsed when Castro took over in 1959.

These small providers probably aren't terrible.

But Comcast and Charter are evil and shit companies that deserve to die. The fully deserve the hate they create.

In case you weren't paying attention, Captain Obvious, Cuba has been under blockade for 66+ years. The impact of recent actions of the U.S. on Cuba changes nothing that I've already said.

Good fucking luck getting that over the line after mid-term elections.

Good fucking luck getting anything over the line after mid-term elections.

Though I doubt the veracity of this particular story, I can certainly imagine that something like this will become a bigger problem in the near future when cellphones utilize satellite internet more heavily. Something that is already underway and developing rapidly.

The primary issue with this story is that it is well known that countless apps have location tracking, both explicit and superstitious. It is also well known that ships crews have loose lips and frequently leak operational "secrets".

That's why shipboard internet access is restricted at sea. This is most especially true when any form of secrecy or stealth is desired.

Please recall the story form a few years ago where a Starlink had been secretly installed aboard ship and the crew was leaking operational secrets like a sieve. https://www.twz.com/sea/the-st...

This French ship carrier story is either nonsense or advertising. Perhaps both.

So, you're saying that they're aliens? That would explain a few things. Hmmm.

You've clearly never seen the inside of a data center. SuperMicro everywhere.

$12B in 2026Q2 revenue. Seems pretty damn good for a bottom feeder.

For fairness and comparison, Dell's last quarter - record breaking quarter - was $33B in revenue.

I think that you are trying to imply that Cuba could sell a lot more coffee and cane if they could sell to the U.S. I disagree. Cuba would likely see some small increase do to tourist sales, but not enough increase to affect their economy in any meaningful way.

As for your personal desire for Cuban products, if you really want them, you can get these things through Canada or other Caribbean islands(Bahamas, Cayman, Jamaica, DR). Probably Mexico as well, though I don't know this.

From personal experience cafe con leche is fantastic and can be made with many/any different types of beans. In my opinion Jamaican, Costa Rican, and Colombian coffee beans are all vastly superior in flavor to Cuban beans.

I'm unable to distinguish a taste difference in sugar canes, whether from the Caribbean nor the U.S. But, I'll grant that you may be able to discern a difference.

No, the facts don't support your position at all. You say at the moment, but it's been over 60 years. And they have no problem operating within the global banking system, when they have the money. But, as I said previously, they are lacking in funds. No company, and not many nations, are willing to give Cuba goods fro nothing.

Cuba has nothing of significance to offer the world anymore. their previous riches were derived from sugar cane. But those markets have shifted and the world no longer depends on the Caribbean for sugar. Today Cuba exports tobacco, a minuscule amount of ore, and rum. Nothing that has a market of any consequence, even if they had the resources to produce the exports. Cuba can barely grow enough food to feed themselves. Which is surprising due to the seemingly large amount of arable land to population ratio.

Cuba's problems have been and remain the same since Castro took over. Mismanagement and no money. The U.S. embargo makes it only slightly more difficult for them by starving them of U.S. tourism. But even in Cuba's heyday, when American tourists frequented and lost USD in their casinos, the tourist contribution to the total Cuban economy was small.

I noticed it as well.

People are born and then, a few years later, they die. It seems to happen every single time. It cannot be a coincidence.

I'd be willing to do a study on it, if anyone wants to fund me.

I don't expect this phone to go anywhere. But, hopefully it will add to the competition against each of the other players and keep them innovating and competitive.
