So did I, and I paid extra for 'Amazon Instant' delivery. Not making that mistake again.

Don't try to inject real life into cartoons. (In the real world, coyotes can run nearly twice as fast a roadrunners.)

I went to my bank and one of the employees that talked to me was wearing them. Was the bank public? What was my expectation of privacy inside the bank?

A pervert is going to use hidden cameras that are NOT contained within well known camera equipped devices. They will use buttonhole cameras, pen cameras, and all the other various concealed cameras that have existed since long before Meta offered glasses.

You can't really justify banning a tool simply because a fraction of a percent decide to use it for malicious purposes.

When the next wav of feminism demands Greed turn the worlds oldest profession into a fucking stock ticker

"keep their stories up for 48 hours instead of 24, send animated super reactions and super hearts to stories, preview stories without showing up as a viewer in other users' list"

Surely, they have some kind of data that says someone will pay for this, right? Is this really what people can't wait to hand over money to Facebook for? Super Reactions?

Non-regulated finance is nothing but an invitation to criminals of all sorts.

Jensen: Burn as much money as you can buying my hardware at grossly inflated prices. I am enjoying it. If you slow down, China is going to come from behind and bite your butt off. So you better run as fast as you can to save your butt.

Amodei: I need a break, cannot run anymore. I am running out of all the borrowed money to this hardware shark. I can only slowdown if everyone else slows down. Else I risk being trampled by all those who are chasing me. Please stop! [pulls out a white cloth tied to the end of a stick. No takers]

Haha haha... nice situation.

What if LG becomes Fecebook, in the sense that they're selling you to the advertiser. What if LG start putting eSIM devices into the screens so that you get a free picture box in exchange for your preferences to sell to the advertiser? You might not notice it in the menus, but you might get product placement of some sort. It's a horrible future which I foresee.

Indeed, that's the way some Americans see it.
Sad, in many cases it's a lack of education.

This would make me feel like a boomer, desperately seeking someone to sell him those sci-fi gadgets he was promised back in the 50s...

I can't be the only one who would feel that kind of shame and embarrassment. Obviously there are people who use these features, but I don't ever see them in public or in the workplace doing it. People seem to want to keep this kind of degrading interaction behind closed doors.

LOL, you use a smart speaker. Intentionally allow companies in, while claiming to protect yourself from them. Oof.

If you could download the update and install it from USB, that would be acceptable.
