Congrats everyone, we got the Purge, but remember this is America where hoarding happens. Everyone doesn’t get one day, one person gets 4 years.

Yes. Android already does all these things. But I think the things I’m excited most about are not on this list at all.

  1. A private local LLM. With the on-device context of my notes, messages, calendar, etc, I’m rather excited to have a more personal LLM than ChatGPT.

  2. Personal messaging via satellite. I love that I can stay in touch with people outside of a cell network.

Call centres exist because people can’t get the help they need by searching. Take away call centres, and you’re just making it more difficult for customers.

I prefer them to not be enjoying it, nor taking it lightly that I’m losing my income and I’ll be struggling over the next series of months to make ends meet.

The correct date from the movie is actually 2016. https://youtu.be/nYndBvhz8hU

I was laid off last year. Got a job after a while and just survived another layoff today. I agree with this assessment.

It’s all post-pandemic stuff. Executives thought growth would continue, and it didn’t. Then they had to take account for their decisions and make others suffer for them.

And it’s self-wiping when it comes out.

What could go wrong?

Seriously, tell me all the ways it could go wrong. It makes me happy thinking about it.

You’re entitled to a full refund for that at least, but getting it and rebooking a flight that works will be another annoyance.

I was at a coffee shop in a rich neighbourhood. Someone left the shop and then came back in speaking loudly to everyone. “Who here has the Mercedes with the license plate that starts with M?” They asked.

Someone raised their hand.

“You need to move your car” The entitled man demanded.

“But I parked in the middle of the spot.” The Mercedes owner replied.

“I can’t get in to my car”

It turns out the entitled guy had a Rolls Royce that he parked over the line. The Mercedes driver parked next to him, but inside the lines. The Rolls Royce driver didn’t accept that he was the one who parked terribly. He just demanded that the other person needed to move their car. Not politely asking, just a demand.

To add to it, this place only has about 8 spots and it’s always busy. The idea that no one should park next to him is the epitome of entitled.

Next you’re going to tell me that these for-profit prisons lobby the government for harsher prison sentences for things like cannabis possession.
