a completely new level of uselessness.
Seriously, a speaker-camera combo where you can make the camera wiggle - what does this have to do with a robot, at all?

That is kind of cute.

I wonder how many of those signing those petitions vote for politicians who follow the church of unregulated capitalism.

Alternately you could vote for politicians who will regulate the market in way that would, for example, force companies to pay back money if they shut down what your paid for prematurely. Or take away other rights of use from licensed products. capitalism *could* get regulated any way we want, one just has to do it. But if you think the invisible hand of the market will know best, dont embarrass yourself by signing petitions against what the invisible hand just decided for you.

Or is this a trolling attempt?

Unbelievable

It is obvious how the actions of this administration will harm the US both short- and longterm. Only Magidiots will love them, because they, like their idol Trump are blinded by malice. Frustrated losers who find satisfaction in destruction, no matter how much it will ultimately affect themselves.
The rest of the world might think: well why should we care about the US damaging itself? But unfortunately history has shown us that this is something extremely dangerous: once the damage will get felt by the masses, especially the Magidiots, they will not at all come to their senses as one might think. They will just get even more extreme, even easier for demagogues to manipulate into thinking that some group or nation is responsible for their misery, even easier to gather behind some autocratic psychopath and become violent and lusting for war.
We have seen that multiple times in history. I am not sure if it is not too late for the US to turn around.

The country: Austria, Europe.
The usual Google shit.

Sure, Firefox management has become worse in several ways, but in comparison to main competitors like Google Chrome or whatever Microsoft wants you to use right now it is still the much better alternative.
Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols' rant does not include what he would suggest as an alternative. I doubt he would have anything to suggest.

Should be a lesson to EVERYONE really to avoid Oracle by all means.

Best to avoid anything that gets you close that terrible company.

much better, much less boring than chess, equally challenging, if not more.

to allow "trade secret" when the public health and common environment is in such an extreme danger as heavy metal pollution represents is simply insane. Fuck their trade secrets, the public needs to know how the landscape gets poisoned.
Why do US people allow this insane influence and damaging unregulated control companies can have there?

from an LLM developed under a dictatorial regime?

Having to pay a monthly subscription for basic functionality is ridiculous. The way syncing pictures with their "app" work (or rather barely works) is ridiculous.
I regret so much to ever have bought their product, never again.

thousands of species are going extinct, lost forever every year, because we destroy and pollute habitats and simply ruin this planet, the only one we will ever have (despite remarks from idiots like Musk).
200 Million for amusement while the tragedy goes on.

They are not just forcing millions to upgrade that shit OS, but they are essentially forcing most of them to throw away perfectly working computers and replace them with new ones in order to match their ridiculous HW requirements.
Millions of tons of unnecessary electronic waste, billions of unnecessary costs.
The net effect will be that millions of computers will remain on Windows 10 with security holes to be used by cyber criminals

I hope governments world-wide will finally introduce regulation for preventing companies like Microsoft from acting that irresponsibly.

Fuck you Microsoft

Totally on his side with this, what are they babbling about forcing people not to wear jeans or whatever TF they like to be "fair" ?
