Of course it’s a benefit. All I’m saying is that least where I live plenty of people drive the car to a supermarket and do their weekly shop while the car charges (or similar, there’s charging a everywhere in car parks near retail).

You can charge it at charge points surely?

I mean you don’t refuel your car at home, do you?

Myeah but it’s just a server - the clients just use Matrix.

Not sure what you’re saying here.

Are robotics good enough right now to suppress a population? No, clearly not.

Will they be good enough in 10 years? Quite possibly.

Why do you think the global rich list is so busy investing in robotics?

Before, when things to too far, even the soldiers would revolt.

Now, all you need is electricity to suppress the population.

Trust me, as someone who started in the games industry 20+ years ago: Crappy technical shortcuts and tonnes of WontFix bugs to hit a deadline all happened just fine before AI.

Whether rightly or wrongly, the other inmates are likely to provide that kind of service.

Yeah it sort of works.

No, the dark patterns are terrible.

I looked it up; you are right. Strictly necessary cookies do not need consent.

But functional cookies also need approval, no?

Cookie questions unfortunately are required by law in the EU so don’t meet Gruber’s own definition.

That said the EU needs to force browser makers to respect a set of more granular “do not tracks” settings and then just read the “necessary/functional/settings/marketing” acceptance from there.

It depends if they invest it in funds that track the Nasdaq directly. If they do, yes then they’ll get dragged in for a fast pump and dump.

That’s because it bloody is.

They’ve got one business unit making money (and to be fair, that business unit is making crazy margins) - Starlink - and one business that could be profitable if it turn down the starship R&D. But it’s so crazily leaning into “AI in space” for its insane multiples - and leaning in to achieving a dominant position there, when both China, Japan and other US companies are prepping reusable launch vehicles.

I wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole and if I could blacklist it in my passive fund I would. That said mine follows the FTSE Russel Global index, which only rebalances every 6 months and with much stricter requirements than the fast-follow Nasdaq funds, so by the time any passive investment of mine jumps on SpaceX its real value will be much more apparent.

Not sure why you’re downvoted for stating the truth.

I agree that you can tell if the whole code base is AI written. But stuff like dependency upgrades being handled by an AI is impossible to detect, IMHO.

Yeah I tend to agree but then I’m surprised how many people think GSuite is just fine!

It’s online only for now - clients are coming but for now focus is on online.

I’m not sure they are lying. Yes, they’re not E2E but I don’t think they claim to be by default, do they?

I’ve got a large group of friends there, since high school. We presume everything we write is available to the Russians so we never talk work details or share secrets. It would be insane otherwise.

We’ve tried to organise a move to Signal, but honestly its client is nowhere near as polished or feature rich as Telegram.

Sir, I tip my hat in your general direction. That was, as they say, a cracking joke.
