if you wear red glasses...

Parents could file a class action? RICO? How is this any different from organized crime?

What are those trackpads/touchpads between the left and right boards? What cables are those that are attached to both the keyboard and trackpad. Looks almost like an Ethernet cable but must be a usbC. Does anyone know the type/brand of the cable.

Just implant the AirTag on my body and share it with everyone ffs

jurisdiction is not dependent just on the person. it is a geographical encapsulation. all people within this boundary are subject to the jurisdiction.

lol public roads are mapped on Google Maps

Corruption and transparency are polar opposites

I can assure you Stellantis/Ford/GM stack is so bad that it’s nearly useless

It depends. Mediocre doctor in a remote area with right tooling assistance as opposed to no one being available for someone who urgently needs one? Yeah this should be a thing. Should a software bro in NY perform it in dark alley despite having best doctors few blocks away? Maybe not…

Let me get this straight. We have a memory shortage due to AI slop which is not really efficient and to solve that problem we need to stop the AI slop and hand write the code.

Isn’t tracking part of “search”? wouldn’t you need a warrant or court order to request my cellphone gps data? How is this tracking/search not contradictory to unreasonable search portion of the 4th amendment. The action of tracking and touching flock itself is violation of 4th amendment.

Wow you waited from 2012 to crack this joke with that username

A lower resolution tracking is still tracking though. Spatial resolution is low/fixed doesn’t change the fact that I was tagged using the personally identifiable plate and my movements were tracked across the town. A banal traffic monitoring system watching for cars is different than systematically monitoring each individual’s movement even though it’s not very very precise.

If this were an app - Location sharing by default has been set to 25 miles, I’d prefer it to be OFF.

Most of large engineering orgs use niche software built for windows. CAD, CAE, many don’t have Linux or Mac versions. See - solidworks, Siemens simcenter, ansys… to name a few. Engineering orgs have to build infrastructure around this and are forced to choose Microslop

prompt -> LLM -> flying car should be just around the corner guys!

Being very bullish on AI, I am not quite sure why this section is in this report. I have read decent amount of articles/news reports from reputed sources on real impact of AI data centers on electricity prices. For eg. https://youtu.be/iVGTGpKpykM?is=Hr2s386Hxn4yThlt

The accounts we banned sought to influence two groups of audiences. They primarily targeted US audiences and generated English-language short comments and images claiming that data centers and AI applications were increasing electricity demand and causing higher costs for ordinary Americans…

Do they ship internationally

Isn’t this already a requirement? Can you really buy a burner phone/sim without providing identifying information?

Schrodinger's flock - the 'hit' helped us catch the criminals and the hit is wrong. but we are going ahead with prosecution nonetheless.

But flock hit is the entire reason for the cops to go arrest them. And you’re right if they did careful assessment of other flock camera data, even the data of this particular flock camera they would have known this car was 5 miles away 23 seconds later. The whole point being misusing/abusing flock data to wrongly jail people and that is precisely what happened here. Flock is the center of this story.

RAM shortage is really hitting the legislators hard

I found an incredibly simple solution for this. Screen time in iOS can block specific websites and apps installed on your device. Set harmless time limits - 5 min for instagram. 2 mins for Reddit.com etc.

Ask your spouse or a friend you trust to set screen time passcode. You can’t bypass it and you’re not going cold turkey either or losing an important utility like Safari.

Doom scroll all you want in 2 mins then it’s locked for the day.

I have succeeded and it’s been 3+ months.

When a set of banal traffic observation cameras turn into surveillance of a particular individual, then you’re being unreasonably searched/tracked/stalked. This should require a probable cause and proper warrant "we want to identify this individuals movements because …"

This is a clear violation of the 4th amendment.

They undid public charge from my memory. It doesn’t exist anymore.

In my world automotive/mechanical engineering we are also observing how much AI can help you build a mental model, fetch unstructured data and help shape your understanding of the system. Onboarding new engg. figuring out what is what in the system. It could have taken hours before to fetch right info, now we are able to do this in seconds.

Are you located in a country that is sanctioned by the US?

Yes and yes

‘We threw the rule book out of the window’

The ‘scene’ or warez sites are still up and running. Sharing cracked softwares, movies shows etc. through file hosting services. If say you wanted a Blu-ray movie with Dolby atmos sizing near 10 gig. Then you’d queue the file sharing site download links in jdownloader and let it automatically manage these downloads for you.

Shouldn’t we fix the laws instead of penalizing users for using cloud services? There should be freedom to use cloud services for our convenience without having to accept legal defeat. That should be the focus for fix.
