I don't do anything particularly dodgy, so if Google wants to know what I had for lunch good for them.

You can still run NetBSD on a lot of m68k Macs. And I've done this the first time on a Quadra 630 in the 90's.

Have you ever thought that the USA may be considered a âoepotentially hostile nation-stateâ by other nation-states, besides China (and Russia and all the usual suspects)?

the larger cat doesn't play with anybody, ever. She's quite stoic. Not very kid-friendly, sadly. She has a bad habit of smacking toddlers in the head just for walking past.

Oh, so the birds are not pests? Also, mice are pest, and cats take good care of it.

Really? Orange, orange juice, bananas, beef⦠the list goes on. The country I was born in exports all of these to the USA.

Timbaland and will.i.am are using it. Well, maybe their output will get a little bit better then?

Also, comparing AI generated songs with auto-tune is appropriate, as both allow people who canâ(TM)t make music to make it!
