You joke, but there are already protheses which are proprietary, and have shut down. Artificial eyes is a famous example, where the company making one shut down the product line, and blinded people who’d had it installed, due to it just shutting off.

Only if the alternative was doing nothing. Having to sit down and stay still in a chair for many hours whilst hooked up to machinery doesn’t sound like much of an improvement.

Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have

Why is the description a snippet of Rule 3?

Particularly as this is causing huge brand damage to MasterCard/Visa. If there is someone else who should take the issue, you’d think they’d point the issue at them and dust themselves off.

They’re a lot smaller by comparison. Not a lot of places accept American Express (and the few that do tend to do it for an increased surcharge), where many more would take a Visa/Mastercard.

Fair play, we did also find out that those powders might have been slowly poisoning people to death.

No, Darknet is just a website that’s not listed anywhere. Lemmy is listed in many places.

As has Siri.

It used to have all kinds of plugins, like Wolfram|Alpha, that let you do fun and silly things with it.

It’s simply gone downhill ever since.

The new Apple intelligence siri is arguably even worse. I tried asking it what the date would be next Tuesday, all I got back was “I don’t understand”.

Unintelligent Siri managed to crack that one without fault.

Or that someone could shoot the drone.

Bug.

The original bug was a moth in computer-relays.

Humans are squishy like bug, and behave semi-unpredictably like bug. Therefore, bug.

So where does that put people who have been electrified? Did they simply die of terror because they thought they had grasped a live wire?

Do they already not do that? They just call it “the computer”.

One of the worst things that the newer Windows versions did is get rid of that little view of defragmenting. It was much more interesting than watching a number slowly tick up.

Interesting. Always thought chewing gum was more like when you made “plastic” out of the caesin in milk.

Very confused about what the point of this would be. People don’t use their cars enough to justify having something like that installed, and it seems like it would just make things more expensive for xAI for not much benefit at all.

Would he not be considered an illegal alien? It’s not like he was sent to the US under standard procedures. He was basically dumped at a US homestead.

Doesn’t the Congress and Election College have final say? The rest of it could be a sham, but what they say goes.

I see. What would have been a better fit in that case?

Although I wonder how long these signs would be that effective for, since they seem really model-specific.

I think so? The metal clicky lighters you used to see in James Bond films and the like.
