The ISS was a money pit from the start.

No, it's produced great knowledge on maintaining rotting clunky shit in space. Maybe that knowledge will pay off handsomely one day. It's always been hard to predict the utility of cutting edge R&D.

Just givvit a few good kicks, will work like a Millennium Falcon charm.

Stop the vocab fight! It's pointless and useless! Every known definition of "AI" and even "intelligence" has big flaws. I've been in hundreds of such debates, No Human nor Bot Has Ever Proposed A Hole-Free Definition of "Intelligence", so go home and shuddup already!

...for fucking up like ChatGPT can. Take that Atari!

[ChatGPT] first blaming the Atari icons as too abstract...continued badly and that the AI chatbot repeatedly requested that the match start over

To anybody that wants to know, it is already clear that LLMs, including the "reasoning" variant, have zero reasoning abilities

A good many humans don't either. They memorize patterns, rituals, slogans, etc. but can't think logically.

"So, how do these illegal therapy bots make you feel? Do they remind you of your mother?"

Dear Rude Neckbeard, YOU were not clear on whether you meant Mel not having enough energy, or outright dying. I interpreted it as the first (although perhaps should have stated that assumption in hindsight).

Because it's bundled with MS's Big Beautiful Bundle. Clueless managers only look at the superficial cost savings and don't factor in the wasted labor from dealing with bad bundled products compared to a real application from a more competent different vendor.

Penny Wise Pound Foolish.

I wanted to murder Teams hundreds of times over the past few years. It's slowly getting better, going from F-minus to D-minus, but it still sucks the big one to Hell and back. Employees just eventually get used to its many oddities and flaws and learn to work around them.

The only reason so many shops use this P.O.S. is that MS bundles it with all the other MSware, making it a "really terrific deal". It couldn't survive in the market as a single product, even if open-sourced.

But the bundle "deal" is penny-wise-pound-foolish, because the total labor wasted dealing with its f$ckage is much more than the bundle savings. PHB's don't weight the labor waste into the judgement because it's not taken directly out of their own budget.

SharePoint is in a similar boat.

Must ... Resist ... Trump ... Jokes

We should give amnesty to established illegal immigrants, otherwise we may end up with similar problems. Our fat national budget deficit couldn't handle a population decline, for one.

Brooks [is 98]. Does anyone really think that this will get done?

I'm sure he has an eager and creative staff; who wouldn't want a shot at such an opportunity? I'd probably do it for free! [1]

Mel merely has to provide guidance and let others do the details. And if by chance he beams up [2] to the Great Comedy Stage in the Sky, they'll carry on to finish it.

[1] I do have savings, but I imagine many in Hollywood are barely scraping by, it's not a well-paying industry for most.

[2] I hope he does a Wesley Crusher vs. Jar Jar fight scene. It can end with them having make-up sex, and then Jar Jar giving birth to an ugly hybrid human/gungan, who then dances to Gangnam Style.

shot first" scene whereby Han and Greedo realize their first shot didn't do the job so take a second, and then a third, and getting frustrated both start mass repeat firing.

Smoke eventually obscures our view, and after several seconds the firing stops. The dust clears, and we see an exhausted & wobbly Han and Greedo barely standing among the ruins of a completely demolished cantina.

Realizing their guns are too hot to both hold & function, they toss them aside, and catch a breath. Then Greedo points to Han and says, "You shot first!". Han replies, "No I didn't, you did!", They then start a shouting match as the camera backs away from the flattened cantina to reveal the desert with nothing but their echoing arguments.

products, it's not news. Anybody who relies on Google for a stable platform needs their head examined.

Move Fast And Break Customers...while being evil.

> It will convince the same morons that think AI is sentient

Many human morons are not sentient, they just echo their cult leader.
