The Sega Genesis used a Z80 for FM synthesis.
Not exactly, it used the Z80 to control the actual sound chips: a Yamaha YM2612 (which does FM) and a Texas SN76489 (which is a simpler PSG). And this setup, in the right hands, could produce absolutely excellent music.
The man really had no shame:

Its search function was simple — type in a question, get an answer. But the quality of its responses was uneven, and the website was quickly eclipsed by Google and Yahoo as the world's go-to search engines.
That's sort of what Google does now. You try to search, it gives you some AI-generated overview of the topic before providing links. It's occasionally handy but most often infuriating.
It can't, that's just "synergy", the idea that one powerful brand can boost another. In reality it just causes confusion and incorrect assumptions.
Ebiikes are a legal workaround loophole for motorcycles.
You realize there are a bunch of homes available for sale in all sorts of places for next to nothing. The problem isn't "housing", it is "housing where people want to live". Declining population in places like Italy have created housing collapse where nice houses aren't sold, and sit empty, and they'll pay you to move into one.
It isn't colonial, it is industrial. The current format of school is that of preparing for a factory workforce. We are post industrial, knowledge/AI/Whatever it will be called workforce.
Educators need to come to grip with getting EVERY child their MAX educational value we can. This means breaking the rows and columns of desks in a classroom, and getting kids their most valuable education they can get. This means some will do much better than others. Talent has gradations. Not everyone can be a Astro Physics expert.
"fair" is subjective. What you think is "fair" isn't really fair. It is objectively unfair to use qualitative terms in discussion of policy.
What would be fair, is that Government live within the means we ALREADY tax out of the public. Cut Spending first. Then, when all cuts that can be made, are made, then MAYBE we can have a discussion on tax increases.
Its Not Your Money.
Envy isn't a virtue.
The problem here, is "fairness" is subjective, not objective.
Use of that particular term is deliberate tug on the emotional center of brains. it works, which is why Progressives ALWAYS use it.
Which is exactly what they said a hundred years ago when they instituted the "income tax".
Rich people will move out. And take their wealth with them.
Taxes are regressive. All of them.
If people treated airplanes the same way, they'd say: some planes have crashed before, so we must never fly again.
Conspiracy theories are, until they are not.
Secret Pedo island owned by rich dude with elitist ties was once a "conspiracy theory". Now we know that Epstein killed himself 100% because "They" said so.
"I'm just asking questions" idiots notwithstanding. I'm looking at you Candice.
So say we all.
And if we all were not brothers of metal, would we fall?
Security isn't convenient.
Security isn't easy, but it isn't hard either.
Assume you're' a target (because you are) and make it so that you're hardened. Don't be the easy target. Criminals are lazy.
Instead of fearing AI, use it to secure software and make it better.
We have nothing to fear but fear itself.
