Not all "AI" is LLM...

#1 isn't an add-on. Current Mode 3/Y do not get unmetered access.

One option I paid for was acceleration boost, but that was a one off charge, and it's just a case of 'want to accelerate faster?'.

Except we don't.

They've now got no access to:
iPhones, App stores, Google phones, Amazon AWS, Azure, GCP, CPUs from Intel, AMD. No Microsoft Office/SQL. Seagate. etc. No payment processors (e.g. Visa, Mastercard) nor access to any banks that have a US entity.

Good luck to them, but they're going to find it hard to actually do business.

There was an entire paragraph.

'WifiForward, an advocacy group, said in an emailed statement the FCC decision “will make it easier for people to stay productive and informed.” The group represents companies including Alphabet Inc.’s Google, Microsoft Corp. and cable operators Comcast Inc. and Charter Communications Inc. It said the move will make connections faster and “supercharge” innovation.'

> nobody wants people on planes talking on their phones. That includes airlines, airplane crew, and fellow passengers.

And yet... having flown on lots of planes to/from places like London & the US, I notice some planes have in-seat phones...

> Rather, they are inherent in you by fact of being human.

No, they're inherent to you being American. Being a non-American, those rights aren't... rights.
Also they're a gift; if they weren't then things like DHS TRIP wouldn't exist.

Good luck with that. They'll immediately have to carve out exceptions for smartphones, and if they do that then the whole 'ban' would struggle to be usable.

A 'ban' by public bodies, sure, but the whole security exception basically means business as usual...

How have they done this? Unless it's end-to-end, it's not encrypted when it gets to your email provider, and if said government tells them to save/copy/log, there is nothing you can do.

I'd actually argue not being invited to all-hands meetings would be a perk. And I've got enough t-shirts, thanks.

Currently work for a $60bn one, and before that worked for a $14bn one. One is a pure software company, the other was 'tin wrapped software'.

Never heard of such a presentation. Never had any training like this. Can't imagine how, in the real world, it would work since employees rarely discuss whether their employment status with others, especially outside of the immediate team they work in.

> But other countries that are major markets for electronic vehicles -- the United States, Japan, across Europe -- do not collect this kind of real-time data.

Sure they do.

And before anyone says 'real-time', with my aluminium foil hat correctly fitted, Snowdon showed that things are collected...

Governments are keen to tell us that metadata doesn't need protecting etc.
Cake and eat it?

Congratulations on bring last years OS to this years phone!

CPU (especially for operations like XOR for checksumming) is basically free.

'Premium storage media'. I've worked for vendors in the enterprise storage space for the past 17 years or so. Even the most expensive drives still fail in spectacular ways, from the oops (you asked to write to block 64 but it actually wrote to block 2048, but only 1/billion operations, and that's silent corruption) to the catastrophic (flying height issues, bearing issues, oil issues).

SSDs, while much better, also have software (firmware) bugs and also media issues. Trusting the media is a bad idea.
