Maybe they should have spent some of the money they used on this questionable design update on improving their app or working with third party app developers.

Didn't OpenAI start getting massive investments from Microsoft and then became ClosedAI?

Edit: Not that I necessarily think this will happen here. If anything, Stable Diffusion might run much better on ARC cards (or whatever their Neural Processing Unit becomes) and give a viable alternative to Nvidia

Have the MPA and RIAA stopped being cruel and heartless?

I tried buying something using crypto on Coin base back in the day. Signed up, transferred $100 into Eth, had to wait two or three days for Coinbase to do their due diligence or whatever, and then it was down 50% by the time I could use it. (I think China banned crypto or something?) I just pulled out my credit card and bought the item directly, and never touched crypto again

There's another threads too that my company used to use for internal posts (referenced in the article): https://threads.com/

Interesting that they managed to keep the .com name

While I can see the plus side of being able to identify bots, I don't think the WEI is the right way to do it, and Google definitely isn't the right company to be handling it

On a tangent, and nothing to do with you, but I don't like how these streaming companies are being called "streamers". Streamers are those people streaming on twitch, not a company like Netflix damnit.

The only LG phone I ever had, it just randomly decided to not boot one day. Apparently it was a common issue, and they were not giving any refunds, at least when I asked. I swore off of LG then, and I wouldn't be surprised if many other people did as well.

I think the phone was the LG G4: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LG_smartphone_bootloop_issues

SR3 was the top game for me. SR4 was a bit too much, but SR3 felt like it hit that sweet spot of goofiness, insanity, and just enough realism for me to keep me invested in the world

So now you have an ex-Twitter account. Or an X account for short.

Maybe Elon was truly 200 IQ with his naming

I can tell you from experience, there is nothing more distracting than having your manager walk up behind you and tap you on the shoulder while you're working on code. While this problem doesn't go away completely with remote work, at least you have time to compose yourself and bookmark your work before you respond

I really wonder if there's a way to use LLMs just to point out every concerning thing in a EULA/TOS
