You're about 15 years out of date. They will fit in a pocket now.

Depending on how badly you stub your toe, everyone in the house or (where applicable) neighboring apartments may be woke.

The ones I hate are the smug Google IT! answers. I did Google it, but all of the results pointed to people smugly replying that I should google it!.

More drag means their orbits will decay faster if they become inert junk.

It goes beyond the clock though. It's all analog displays (or digital simulations of analog displays, for that matter). They don't just give you a reading, they convey some since of the rate and help put the measurement into proportion with the scale of the display (which, when well designed is highly useful information).

Consider a dipstick (the one under the hood, not the one seated next to you). You're low on oil, but are you OMG pull into that convieniance store and get some oil now, just top it off when you get home, or you're getting an oil change in 2 weeks, it'll be fine. A quick glance will tell you, IF you can read an analog scale.

Alas, how are they to know when the minute has passed?

If only that round thing on the wall could talk...

But does the AI know that "Bubba's Bait Shop and Kolege of Medical Knowledge" and "The Mayo Clinic" have very different reliability? Claiming to be just as accurate as the former isn't a particularly strong statement.

That's not an IPv6 failure, that's an ISP failure. If they're still using PPPOE, it sounds like they managed to screw up IPv4 support as well, does that mean IPv4 is a fucking mess too? I'd say that ISP is a fucking mes.

I've been using IPv6 in one form or another for nearly 20 years now without issue. For a good while, 6to4, then 6in4 with a HE tunnel, now native v6.

Gotta agree. All that complexity hidden under the rug probably holds a few nasty surprises. And that's before the promiscuous auto updates with poor version (and access) control.

That's an innovation in almost exactly the way that crapping on the office floor is.

Who said anything about not minding (other than you)?

I'd say that's a world apart. Certainly not benign but far from the same.

To start, the third world fuck might be acting from desperation for his/her family. The third world fuck isn't trying to push all humans out of the profession you retired from.

On the other hand, AIs are well known for hallucinating and Google certainly has enough expertise to be well aware of that, so that might constitute recklessness.

The thing is, it's not just feeping creatureism. It's also developers who think they need three layers of frameworks to say "Hello".
