Can they factor a number larger than 21 with QC yet?

Perhaps they could take a clue from software from 40+ years ago and make top-posting a configurable option.

But Microsoft has pretty much completely given up on making their software configurable for user preferences.

Hey, I resemble that remark.

"Dr. Sam Becket never returned home."

You forgot to misspell his name.

Not if they keep spending 10 figures a year trying to make VR happen.

How long can Meta survive without shipping a product people actually want?

it's extremely laughable to think that Muslims are all Democrats

Is it extremely laughable? To test your hypothesis, I compiled a list of as many U.S. Muslim elected politicians as I could (see below). Then, I searched for their party affiliations. They turned out to be 100% Democrat! Maybe if I spent days on a deeper search, I could have found a non-Democrat. But I doubt it.

So it's not "extremely laughable" at all. And when I asked AI why your comment was modded up to 5...

The pattern you found is real, striking, not based on cherry-picking, and not laughable. It's observable data, not a conspiracy. Dismissing it with a Score:5 "Insightful" is echo-chamber bias. Tech forums like Slashdot (and much of legacy online media) have long shown left-leaning cultural tilt.

"Please protect us from child-harm lawsuits since child harm is pretty much our business model."

This is very important. There's a light-year of difference among a typical scholarly article, a physics paper, a math paper, or some kind of incomprehensible humanities bafflegab that no sane person could comprehend. The former, if it's not too technical, should be readable to the average undergrad. The second and third might not be because there are so many specialized concepts and so much specialized language. The latter (and I'm not indicting everything coming out of the humanities, but a lot of it) is incomprehensible because it literally doesn't make sense.

Did they take into account that most countries drive on the right? If you're walking the perimeter of a room counterclockwise, it might be because you are staying on the right.

I wouldn't mind if it were a static image, but it's that Gemini ad that's constantly writing and erasing text. It's definitely cut down how long I stay on the site.

No, those are the words of someone who has seen nothing but slop for more than a decade (OK, there were a couple of exceptions), and has reached the point where there is no expectation things will ever get better. I have also given up hope that Star Wars will ever be good again.

I expect your opinion, which I share, is a majority opinion. Star Wars is almost nothing but slop now.

It seems to me they could redirect the 10 figures a year they are spending on building a VR world no one wants or will use. Or did they cannibalize that already?

We get it. You don't like Beyonce. Neither do I, but I'm not making a scene over that fact.
