When I used to be interested in hardware I would buy it with half of the top of the line money, the rest invest it in some fund and then buy an upgrade in two years with that investment. Or at least that used to be the case when GPU and all the components had a tendency to become a fancy vintage museums after 2 years. You would be laughed at if you said something about future proofing.

I miss that.

It’s big enough to feel their presence in every corner of the platform unfortunately

I cannot facepalm hard enough when I see lgbt ppl who praise Soviets or North Korea

Handsome but also caring to involve old isolated grandma in wholesome social activities. Angel at day, demon at night

I have just read the features of iOS 18.1 Apple intelligence so called.
TLDR: typing and sending messages for you mostly like one click reply to email. Or… shifting text tone 🙄

So that confirms my fears that in the future bots will communicate with each other instead of us. Which is madness. I want to talk to a real human and not a bot that translates what the human wanted to say approximately around 75% accuracy devoid of any authenticity

If I see someone’s unfiltered written word I can infer their emotions, feelings what kind of state they are in etc. Cold bot to bot speech would truly fuck up society in unpredictable ways undermining fundaments of communication.

Especially if you notice that most communication, even familial already happens online nowadays. So kids will learn to just ‘hey siri tell my mom I am sorry and I will improve myself’.
Mom: ‘hey siri summarize message’

This has certain symbolism that the war is already or shortly will be among nato if we won’t take it more seriously.

So… when will the western world and media wake up? And call it for what it is?

Because the only thing more gross than that is to stand back and pretend it isn’t happening

Left lane is for overtaking. End of story

If you finished overtaking you go back to middle or right depending on the circumstances.

We would like to shift our structure to a more flexible model of management to accommodate for unforeseen market fluctuations.

So I am fired?

As I said we want to reschedule you indefinitely as our potential support asset. This pool is very prestigious and privileged position to be in.

So will I get paid?

As much as we would like to, truly, It is legally impossible for us to provide you with any funds outside of a legally binding contract which needs to be terminated in order to shift to a better state of financial buoyancy.
