Trafficking is horrible, no two shakes about it. But blocking porn is not a way to fix the problem. Besides trafficking will still happen, they will just find other was to go about it.

I am not so much tired of updating stuff. But there has to be an observable benefit for doing so. I am not going to update to gain bloat or lose features. Another big problem with updating IoT is my woot specials rarely, if ever, release firmware upgrades.

I agree with this 100%. I played the game and thought "hey this is a good game to play on the crapper" Then I got 3 levels in and though there is no way I would pay 10$ to unlock the rest of the game. I was just talking to my wife about microtransactions. When AppStore was in its infancy, games were 99c with over the top great games being 1.99. I was happy with this and often times I wanted someway to pay the developer more. Now I pay 2.99 for a game, and it is pay-to-play after that. Again, I am happy to support the developers, but not at what they are wanting. Example, I am playing the game HonorBound right now; everything can be unlocked in game (if you're lucky). However, if you want to increase your chances at getting a stronger character you need to use 10 elite ruins or pay 4000 gems. You can buy 2500 gems for 19.99 and 6500 gems for 49.99. Even if I buy the gems I am still relying on RNGesus to get me a decent character. Are you kidding me? I can buy a damn near AAA game for less than that.

I find this sad. I am looking to leave the reddit ecosphere and someone suggested SD. I come here and one of the first posts I see is a goodbye and how the site has gone down hill.

I have an Echo and a Dot and I love them. But, I feel like they need the ability to better understand open ended conversation. When I ask Alexa for the current temperature, I don't want the whole forecast. When I ask a question outside of her normal abilities, I don't want her to derp out. Right now voice control is very cause and effect; if my prompt is within the skillset then do this. Give me an AI with the cause and effect. Even a basic AI would be nice.
