The point being now if you're watching a "premium" streaming service like HBO you get constant commercials.
Pretty much the point of the whole thread, in fact?

Or, y'know, once in a million years we could just agree on an issue instead of always making it about politics?
Crazy, I know.
1) absolutely demand right to repair - the idea that units which may be in FUCKING COMBAT need to call a service tech is unbelievably stupid.
2) find out who approved this contract AND FIRE THEM.
The contract needs to go away, and anyone in the DoD who agreed to this is literally not doing their job in a way that could ostensibly cost lives. This level of incompetence not only can't be tolerated, there have to be actual consequences.
Originally there were two tiers of cable channels: the "bundled" ones like ESPN, CNN, etc (those have pretty much always had commercials, they were just like additional tv stations), and "premium" channels like HBO and Showtime, which you specifically had to pay an additional monthly fee for. Those premium channels were free of external commercials (ie they would promo their own shows, etc but this was confined to between shows, never within them) until at least what the mid 90s? Later?
Why did he have it but my Whatsapp didn't? No idea, but presumably they forced it on some regions with lesser privacy regs with the intent of rolling it out everywhere in due course. So enjoy AI dogshit everywhere, even in apps where it makes no sense.
I wish my company would do this.
Yes, I realize there are some tiny niche-functions that the open source products don't serve but 99.9% of people probably don't need them anyway and my god I'm sick of MS's constant tweaking of things and now shoveling AI shit at me.
Great, interesting new science expected.
I'm particularly interested to see if the Sun also exhibits the 'hexagons at poles' structures like Jupiter and Saturn.
"I know you are, but what am I?"
Yeah, it's like talking to Cicero.
Jesus Christ the lack of self awareness is... Stunning.
It depends.
Are the owners/managers (Twitter) or other customers (bluesky) openly attacking you for your menu choices?
So you're saying cherry picking dates is wrong?
Next you're going to say that looking at small data - say 10y of trends - is insufficient to establish CLIMATE change?
Let me know your insight on this!
According to the hurricane poeple, it is. I'm just using your approach.
All the data globally show ABSOLUTELY no trend increasing in severity (ACE) nor frequency; the bedwetting about warming and hurricanes is *all based on North Atlantic zone data*.
Funny, no? Are you agreeing then that it's ridiculous to talk about a Global Climate Change concern based on regional data alone?
Which way would you like to have it? Pick one.

Hallucination from AI can boost stock prices more than even President Trump. We are on the right track here. AI that ignores facts, invents evidence, and gives the requested results will make any realists, sceptics, truth sayers etc in finance a thing of the past. What could possible go wrong.
And we know everybody in big money are very honest, and would never do anything for money, or to cover up mistakes.
*** sarcasm off ***
AI is great with words, can help with code. But when it comes to hard facts, then AI is not doing well. If AI is supposed to replace lots of people looking at invoices etc, then we have been past that for years. We want only electronic invoices, and have out-flagged lower level finance to a cheaper country . We can not do this cheaper with AI. And we would still need humans for the 2-10% that AI will not handle well.

NOAA data shows May 2025 is 0.72ÂF cooler than May 1896 in the US.
129y of global warming and...no impact? Really?
Yep, that's correct. And yeah, that's about what we were told, although I don't recall the 'x% death sooner' - my dad could have kept that to himself. I recall being told they thought it would have a 1/3 chance of extending his life to a handful of years. We were extraordinarily fortunate.
