Shouldn't the OS be able to cast the screen, rather than this being a function of the application?

I propose a law requiring companies to continue to provide old versions of software. They can remove a feature from the new version, but I can still get the old one. In the past, if Microsoft removed a feature from Word 2005 for example, then one could refuse to upgrade. I could save the installer. Yes, eventually it won't work any longer, and I am not saying they must support every version into perpetuity. But if Netflix removes a feature, I can't download the old version. So they should be barred from putting a barrier in place preventing access or use of it.

Dangit, stupid HTML filter! The was supposed to be "Oh no, open source doesn't support [INSERT ENSHITTIFICATION HERE] like customers want!"

I think it was intended to be drippingly sarcastic. Sloppy is pretending that the failure to screen cast is a feature that customers wanted, then constructing a sentence like "Oh no, open source doesn't support like customers want!"

This is why browsers should not launch apps without first prompting. Steam, Discord, Roblox, GlobalProtect VPN, and BeyondTrust, Office 365/Teams, and gzillions more work this way. You should never click the "[ ] Don't prompt me any more for this application" button. This allows any arbitrary web site to get out of the browser sandbox and chain to security flaws (or even direct features like "subscribe to podcast") that are in the application.

Who in this thread is worshipping Steve Jobs? Who said he has super powers? Do you just have an automated filter that finds any post that mentions Steve Jobs and then starts posting flamebait? Does it have a list of everything he ever did wrong so that you can randomly post a response? There is as much to learn from people who you hate as the people you admire.

This is why nobody can discuss anything rationally on the internet. When someone post something that Joe Biden did right, a troll will inevitably pollute the discussion with "Nyah nyah, you left wing wokists worship him." When someone posts something that Donald Trump did right, another troll else will jump in and say "Nyah nyah, Trump is an orange man with small hands." In the name of Socrates, try to keep your easily-triggered brains on topic!

Yes!! And:

The fact that the user hand-edited the inputs and it *still* got it wrong, tells us that the company doesn't actually care if their product even works.

Actually, Apple did deliver that capability but developers pushed-back and didn't want it.

Jobs was indeed a dick, but he did not make advertisements claiming features that do not exist.

Steve Jobs would not release a product until it actually did what they claimed it would do. I don't understand why this is some strangely difficult lesson for CEOs to understand. I suppose with the success of Musk and his ilk that idea seems quaint.

Why does Microsoft care what browser you use? Why do they even make a web browser? Revised: Why do they bother taking someone else's open-source browser and rebranding it with their logo?

So it's good.... except for the bad shit.

When I was in college circa 2000, my undergraduate macroeconomics professor pointed out why the US is so attractive to corporations. "If you want to setup shop in China," he said, "you will need to pay for your own backup generator because the power grid isn't reliable like it is here." He went on to explain similarly about labor - how the US constantly produces a supply of educated people (referring to us in the classroom). So when you incorporate in the US, you have everything you need.

For decades people have predicted this would change, and the time has finally arrived. From 2010 to 2020, the US built 1 new nuclear reactor, while China built 30. Education? While we debate subsidies for solar, China covers entire mountains in solar panels. Foreign student enrollment dropped 15% overall, with big universities seeing as much as 63% decline (DePaul University). The foreign students paid disproportionately more tuition, so universities are going to experience a budget declines next year.

We are digging our own grave.

The solution is to do their own work! Or at least check it! This use of AI is like when people just Google for something and copy/paste the first hit.

What the news doesn't show is the millions of people using AI successfully every day. We know that every day people incorrectly use hammers, wrenches, screwdrivers, drills, cars, and guns. Yet they are not declared useless. AI is a tool, and in the hands of a someone with genuine interest in using the tool appropriately, it is a useful one. The best path forward is to continue to make fun of the lazy fools who use it as a crutch and don't even read their own court filings.

Sometimes ChatGPT does search the web, but I believe it uses Bing not Google. Microsoft has a private Bing search that comes with privacy contracts to prevent leaking of corporate secrets.

I suppose ChatGPT could use Google sometimes too, or it could be that some researcher at OpenAI took conversation excerpts and put them into a Google search box.
