There is no such thing as AI in the current era, or ever with digital computers. There is only pattern matching, regardless of how advanced it may seem. It is still advanced pattern matching, and nothing more.

Results like this are to be expected, and should never be a cause for alarm or confusion. This is the inevitable result of trying to make a pattern matching system appear to reason.

And here's your sign...err...A-License.

That is a ridiculously, tremendously stupid idea (even though I can completely understand the reason for the suggestion). There can never be appointed a group of people who get to decide what ideas are true and false under the force of law. The desire to do so is so strong, and the ramifications so profoundly harmful, that the U.S. Constitution was written to make sure that never happens.

It didn't take long before the Jews took over the oppression themselves.

That is a very good example of one of the many reasons I prefer to see movies at home. Not being able to duplicate that sound at home is a HUGE plus for watching movies at home.

Movie theater sound is just too loud, and always has been. The last time I went to the theater was to take my kid to that awful Minecraft movie, and I was kicking myself for not bringing my earplugs. I could have comfortably heard the movie, missing none of the sound, with them firmly inserted.

What's the point, since Mars doesn't have a significant enough magnetic field to hold anything resembling an atmosphere? Isn't that the whole reason Mars is the planet it is today? It's dynamo stopped a long time ago.

I have confused two different courts and two different court cases. Disregard my entire response, as it is nonsense.

But they are. That miserable little shit that runs OpenAI has said so on multiple occasions.

There is no painful lesson for AI companies in the U.S. The U.S. Supreme Court just ruled that AI companies are allowed to steal other people's work in most cases. The circumstances in which such theft is not allowed are narrow. So copyright for things like Free and Open Source Software no longer apply to AI companies. They are free to strip our copyrights from our code and pass it off as their own, among other things.

The OP was talking about Cisco ending production of IPv4-only devices, not dropping support for IPv4. And I agree. In my opinion, we need a government mandate to end IPv4 on the Internet. It no longer serves a useful purpose outside the LAN.

I hope that becomes the new normal everywhere. AT&T ignored me (and hated on Linux) for decades, so I will never use them again.

The local utility company laid fiber throughout the city, then brought in CenturyLink/Quantum Fiber to service it at $65/month for symmetrical gigabit with no restrictions of any kind and no data caps. Then Brightspeed took over Quantum Fiber and eventually raised the monthly price to $70/month. It's been that way for a couple years now, and it's still a great service. Still no restrictions of any kind and still no data caps.

Edit had a QBASIC dependency??

I can't believe there are still stores that cater to walk-in traffic. The future of buildings is to be storage for online delivery orders.

The point of the order is to preserve evidence for Discovery. It's standard practice in every court case ever.

Is that a satirical comment meant to trigger people? Why on Earth would you assume what you assumed. We've been warning people for DECADES that:

1) Any of your data put on someone else's server (aka, "the Cloud") is no longer your data. You must assume it is being scanned, read, and used for the service provider's revenue, because it is.
2) If a service is free, then the service is not the product. You are, as is your data.

And for the last few years (at least):

1) Anything posted into an AI service is being donated to the AI service.
2) Any company code, data, structures, etc. posted into an AI service is no longer the sole property of the company; but is shared property between the company and the AI service. If it can be used against your company (competition, law enforcement, etc.) it will be.

That is one good reason. Another good reason is that the sound system is WAY too loud. The last time I went to the theater/cinema, I wished I had brought my ear plugs. The sound was far into hearing-damage territory.

So can passkeys, which makes them harmful.
