Graphene is great, the problem is pixel phones. We need an effort to push other manufacturers to get on board.

This happens with all sort of things. Gender is another example: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jul/28/nhs-closing-...

Sounds like they're not adopting an English accent as much as they're adopting a Hugh Grant awkward persona.

"You are charged with pirating films". "Nope, my AI did it".

So what? Google's reputation is well established. Nest customers know perfectly well what they're getting into.

The West has been going wrong for years now - UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, USA - all turning into dysfunctional dystopian police states.

/one-way memorable/ - recognisable, but not memorable.

There used to be barriers to entry into tech - eg no internet, no github - you had to trawl the newsagents for magazines, buy them, spend your weekend typing out code listings, then debugging all the misprints. Enthusiasts only. Nowadays, tech is just another job, non-enthusiasts welcome. University quality varies considerably, and many degrees cater to the just-another-job crowd - the degree is really just a java degree, minimum required get-a-job skills.

Hardly needed to blow it up to stop supplying them.

What an absurd statement - everything he's done is to make twitter profitable and viable as a business - reduced headcount, reduced systems, reduced perks, .... He was already high profile in numerous spheres so no amplification was required. It's obvious that you don't share his viewpoints, and so you're simply slinging mud. It's the opinion of many that Musk didn't even want twitter, as a megaphone or otherwise, that he screwed up, obligating himself, and now has to make a successful business of it.

Behave like you are an owned pet, rather than a human with rights equal to those controlling you.

The timing correlates.

This ridiculous conversation was already destroyed.

Your restraint is admirable.

Becoming a catholic priest because you want to be celibate is like becoming an astronaut because you like freeze dried food. Worse if you're gay because you putting yourself among a bunch of sex-starved men.

Sodom and Gomorrah. Leviticus.

Why would a gay person choose to become a catholic priest? That's like a short person who has no interest in basketball choosing to be a professional basket ball player.

Why didn't you just look up the SA stats instead?

"Africa time" was prevalent when I lived there. I also saw recently that critical race theory considers being on time to be characteristic of white supremacy, but I know nothing of CRT so I'm not getting into a discussion on that; just seemed a connection.

You left out the rape stats. Last I checked, someone was murdered approx every 25 mins, and someone was raped approx every 15 mins.

Thanks, that cookie thing was unacceptable; OneTrust is almost always an instant click on the back button for me.

The list makes no sense - revealing your motives.

Scotland's been losing its way - things can only improve.

An central point of easy, precise control and programmed permissions. The current banking system can sort of do some of that - they want it done properly. Pure control.

I'd suggest governments generally want total control of everything, and in the digital age they see they might finally get it.

No AI can be trusted - the A stands for Artificial.

The UK is making many bad decisions, and descending into a dystopian horror. Where to emigrate to?

The traffickers aren't in the UK.

I couldn't even install windows 11 - it had some issue with my account, couldn't log in. A couple of hours wasted just trying to log in... no.

Think twice before using Google.
