I tried to like Perplexity and just couldn't make good use of it. Maybe I was doing something wrong but the responses I got were rarely any good.

We've been in a recession for 5 years

Be a better parent and teach your kid to pay their own way.

When the money involved in that small minutia is greater than the net worth of some countries then why on Earth would you be surprised?

There is zero reason to do business in the EU today. The entire EU is stagnating because of stuff like this. There is no innovation coming out, new businesses are practically nonexistent.

Really sad watching the EU become a Government version of Rambus that just sues everyone for money when the ideas run out.

90%+ of the AI they showed off at WWDC was their own. There was one small segment where they showed it asking for approval to go out to ChatGPT. I'd hardly call that struggling.

My boss did this with one of my coworkers. Made the guy quit, then took his salary and hired 16 Indians out of Hyderabad and still had leftover cash to burn.

You want to get past a perceived "diaper" and "child" stage by putting people and companies in diapers and treating them like children. I'll never understand how people like you can be so delusional. You're entire premise is wrong and then you build a whole narrative around it to try and sound smart. Its fucking pathetic.

Very entitled. Go work construction or as a mechanic or even a welder. 99 times out a 100 they have to buy their own tools. This mentality in tech that the company should coddle to your every whim on equipment is isolated to tech and doesn't exist outside of it. They do it though and then everyone bitches about the equipment, destroys it and complains that the company doesn't do better.

Well how about we move to zerotrust and just use whatever device we want? I already do this at work. I use my personal device and all the apps are isolated from my stuff. I dont have to have multiple devices and I can upgrade it whenever the hell I want.

Biden can't even spell cybersecurity. This is being pushed by some low level hack with no understanding of the topic. Worse, they'll just appoint some czar to it and it will go nowhere but still cost 100 billion somehow. Can't wait for the nonbinary pansexual transracial paraplegic they put in charge of this one.

I've been ahead of the curve on this for over a decade. I used to just stay home and work, pissing off people I worked with who traveled every day. They would literally scream and yell at me about it and I'd just...... stay home. My work got done so bosses didnt care too much. I was more productive then they were because they sat in a cubicle farm pissing their life away while I didnt have a drive.

I remember talking to one of them and asking why he came in at all when he sat in meetings on Skype for Business all day with the various people around the world. "You could do that at home." I said and it started to click with him. If I did come into the office it was to do what I needed to and then I left, 3-4 hours tops usually. That made them even angrier.

When Covid and work from home became a thing I was already home, all set up. It took them 9 months to settle in and work things out. They had long meetings on topics like "How to effectively work from home" that I skipped because I was already doing it. Now they all get what I was talking about. It took a worldwide pandemic for the sheep to figure it out.

Most of us need to take a stand more often on things that just dont make sense.

Saturday morning cartoons. They made all the good comics into TV series in the 80's and kids stopped reading them. Why bother when they are on TV now for free.

There is no such thing as AI. So AI estimating anything at all is not possible. Thank me later, I just saved you all a ton of money from investing in this.

I dont have power over people and they didnt elect me. I can call them and YOU a fucking retard all day long and its my opinion. If I hold a gun to your head while calling you a retard then you might have a point. Until then, you're a fucking retard, have a nice day.

"The government said that the posts could incite panic, used images out of context, and could hinder its response to the pandemic"

As a citizen those words should put the fear of God into you. When the Government believes you are so stupid and pathetic that you're unable to discern the truth for yourself that they must protect you through force there is literally nowhere to go but down. The entire premise of Democracy is dying via censorship all over the world because why exactly? A certain segment of the population thinks you're better off being ruled and dictated to. "You're too dumb, we'll do the thinking for you"
