Iran is in turmoil primarily because the religious fascists running their country spent their decades in power executing their religious authoritarianism, and allowed Tehran's aquifers to run dry. What we need to UNDERSTAND here is that it is happening in America, all across this country, because the Republicans and Democrats are capitalists before they are Americans, and prioritized corporate greed over human need.
A journalistic question would be asking why the #DOJ or #FBI are not pressing nor investigating #Grok over alleged #CSAM and #NCII / #NCP generated via #AI.
@alice Wait... is that... CLIPPY hiding there in plain sight? Is Microsoft finally admitting that copilot is just another useless, annoying, pushy distraction getting in the way?
"You look like you're trying to write something meaningful! Would you like me to replace that with the average of a million strangers shitposting on the Internet?"
Here is alleged footage of the moment that a white woman was shot and killed by LEOs after blocking them in the road and being subsequently confronted. One video shows an angle from behind the victim's vehicle, and the second shows an angle where the front of her vehicle is visible.
I recently got a new Thinkpad P14S. It is a nice computer for sure, but I think it is time to focus on the software side as well. Computers come with software and the software experience matters!
Some things I think should be covered in a review:
1. What OS does the machine come with? Having a choice would be nice, such as a Windows & Linux choice. Even better if you can test both before making a choice.
2. What software does the machine come with, both good and bad. If the machine comes with useful software, then that is great! Does it offer a choice of browsers?
3. Is it possible to get rid of all the bad stuff and how long does it take?
4. Does the machine allow local accounts? Does it force or trick you into using online services?
5. Does the machine have opt-in or opt-out of AI or does it force feed it?
6. Does the machine make it easy to switch OS after the fact?
I am sure I am not the only one that cares about stuff like this. When you buy a piece of hardware, it is to run software and making it easy to run the software you want should be what hardware makes should focus on, in addition to building great hardware.
Dear Big Tech, I get it. You’ve invested massive amounts in your 'AI' (basically keeping the money in a closed loop and patting yourselves on the back). I get that you needed to 'invent' something new to break the product stagnation. I understand all of that.
But *please*, stop forcing it on us everywhere.
AI should be an option, not an imposition.Those who want to use it know exactly where to find it.
For everything else, we just don't care. I want to go back to being a user and a customer, not your product.
Microsoft renamed the whole Office suite to Copilot. 🤣
Please bear in mind that calling "AI" output "slop" makes Satya Nadella sad. Under no circumstances should you call their office suite "Microslop Slopilot". That would just be mean and you're better than that.
Hey Guys, gals, people and pets, Satya Nadella is getting tired of people calling AI Slop output AI Slop. If everyone can stop that's be great as it is upsetting Microslops share holders.
Don't start calling Microslop Microslop or use the #microslop tag as it might burst the AI bubble and then Microslop might have to take SlopPilot out of Windows. As you know, that would be terrible.
