Yeah, but they aren't obligatory. You can live your life without going there.

This is different, they're telling you you either accept whatever shit they throw at you or you can't travel.

American mass media doesn't say bad things about Trump.

Look what happened to AP this week - they're banned from press conferences for not toeing the Trump line.

"Freedom of the press" is a lie in Trump's America.

The music industry has far too many lawyers.

Simple: With the right prompts it could turn into a MAGA.

Remember how beating a grandmaster at chess used to take a custom designed supercomputer with custom ASICs but now a desktop PC can do it, because the software got better?

Conclusion: Unimaginitive buyers were being scared off by not already having a home charger.

Give them a home charger and suddenly they're all, "Gee, that's a nice car!"

Time to mandate them, methinks. Or give a subsidy.

So.... you plug it in when you get home?

I don't see that as too difficult.

And you won't be stranded if you forget to do it, it just costs you extra so you're more likely to remember to do it next time.

ROTFL!

AI, schmayai.

What I want is a version that can buffer more than 10kk of data so it doesn't all go to hell when I'm watching over WiFi and a scene with rain or sea or whatever. I've got 16Gb of RAM, FFS. The entire file could fit in memory, but nooooo, we can only buffer a few kb because more would be wasteful!

and, (b) a version where I can single-step more than dozen frames without it crashing.

and (c), a version that can re-open the same file and continue if the network glitches or if I put my computer to sleep half way through watching something. The file's still there , use it!.

...yet.

How many of those PCs are prevented from running Windows 11 because of some Microsoft user-control TPM bullshit?

I'm guessing it's a big number.

If he's in "heart surgery" after being hit by something then I'm playing my pre-existing condition card.

Getting hit by a drone causes cuts and bruises, not heart trauma.

No, it's just math.

("probability", to be precise)

It helps that Trump's going to double the price of Hyundais in January.
