That has not been my experience, at all. I'm entirely against the concept of what they're doing (giving me a reason not to visit the websites that ultimately pay for the production and publication of information) but the AI summaries and links to related articles tend to be spot on what I'm looking for. Perhaps you can give me a (non-contrived) search to try that demonstrates your claim?
I can access any LLM that I want with my browser.
Why would I need one embedded in my browser?
hit 'Pause' on the Charlie Kirk morality play,
Um, yeah
Which is near as I can tell means you can say the n word as long as you don't quote Charlie Kirk.
Do you really believe all this stuff that you spout? Kirk didn't talk like that.
If the only thing required is a refrigerator then this might make sense, but refrigerators go into kitchens, and kitchens have more requirements than just cool and frozen.
There are good reasons to want a tablet in a central, accessible location in the kitchen. Apparently, Samsung isn't it, but that's not a condemnation of the idea.
you plugged the phone into the laptop and just used it there, but it looked clunky as hell
Samsung still has DEX (Desktiop EXperience) available for its phones. You can either plug it into a computer and use the phone like a program within a computer, or you can connect it to a USBC docking station with HDMI, mouse, and keyboard attached and use the phone in a desktop style.
It works decently well enough. I wouldn't want to use it full time but I've used it occasionally (typically when my home internet is out. My desktop doesn't have a wifi card since I use ethernet, so I can't really pair the phone as a hotspot - I just connect the phone and use DEX).
There is a concept in computing where a certain spec is good NOW, but will not be good in the future. Rather than replace the entire computer many would rather just increase the power of their current one where its lacking.
Also, by preventing outside ram installation, Apple is free to charge whatever premium they want on more RAM. If they're the only way to increase the ram on a machine then if they decide you're going to pay an extra $500 to go from 8gb to 16gb, then you're stuck.
Replaceable memory is not just to provide upgradability, it allows buyers to shop memory pricing.
" This is a budget laptop. It doesn't need to be upgraded."
Odd, that's never been a description of budget laptops previously.
" For someone on a tech website, you're certainly completely out of touch with technology needs."
Takes one to know one. and you're replying to an AC.
Or why even buy a computer at all? Let's ignore that the entire appeal of computers is their flexibility.
... this amazing Fyre thing somehow.
... when your acolytes are literally engaging in political shootings.
I mean, that actually is pretty radical, ya know?
I hear there are many jobs in farm fields in the US these days.
I know, right? Those jobs were supposed to be restricted to exploited foreigners. What is wrong with people these days?
Texas and Florida prohibit local governments from mandating rest and water breaks.
"Corals are dying worldwide. Ask the great barrier reef."
I asked the Great Barrier Reef and it said everything was fine, in the King's English no less. More than that, the Great Barrier Reef was annoyed at the assumption that it would know about other reefs worldwide. The Great Barrier Reef told me to tell you to F off.
