OMG!!! Ponies!!!

"Usury" relates to interest or fees for borrowed money, not high prices.

Thank you. The summary completely failed to support what the headline claimed.

>payments to OpenAI, with the Republican National Committee ranking as the company's largest political spender at roughly $9,700, the analysis found.

For some reason, I don't think $10K is going to be much help in paying for the billions being spent on AI data centers.

So this brings up an interesting case. Fingerprints are physical, they can force you to do a fingerprint unlock, the 5th won't help. But what if one finger was set to wipe the phone? You don't have to tell them which finger unlocks vs which wipes - that does fall under the 5th. So make your right index finger the wipe one, that's probably what they'd try first. And it wasn't wiped due to any action on your part.

>the instructor having to use AI to write backs up the claim that people are forgetting things by using AI.

Where did it say they had to use AI? And is asking an AI to proofread something that much different than MS Word flagging spelling and grammar errors?

Expect BMW to spin this as offering their customers free heated seats in exchange for viewing ads.

"The biggest being that the digitalization of content overall..."

Do they think what's on those discs isn't digital?

>"If we have an influx of workers at this point with the data centers being built, what happens when they're done? Where do those workers go?"

At least skilled trades is one area AI can't take over. For now.

>making that as small as humanely possible

So, no painful implants?

>the vast majority do have various left of centre leaning biases.

How is "centre" objectively defined?

>focused on the health effects of prolonged sedentary behavior on a daily basis.

If I had cancer, my behavior might change to sitting around more than exercising. Correlation is not causation.

>"The matter is somewhat urgent," The Register reports, because a court-ordered support arrangement expires August 3, "so T-Mobile may soon be unable to get support for its very substantial VMware estate." ... The carrier fired back by pointing out that it has made just two support calls in 2026, which hardly justifies such a massive staff and expense.

They have a perpetual license, so can keep running VMWare without support. If they only had 2 support calls in the last year, it seems they should be able to move on to another solution without any urgent need for support. If they make a breaking change to a system, move that to the new platform. For the other existing stuff, keep calm and carry on.

I already have a mommy. I don't need another one.

>the company said its new chips will deliver up to 50% higher performance at the same power, or up to 70% lower power for the same performance.

>IBM's VP of silicon technology R&D says the new innovation "can improve performance by 50% compared to the best available chip today, and at the same time can reduce power by 70%."

One of these things is not like the other.
