Something tells me that he might not be completely objective…

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. So yeah, I’m super fucked.

Although, I would be a cyborg (Skitarii) with a pretty sweet collection of servo skulls and a cool weapon, so I’ve got that going for me.

• Tesla absolutely sell software locked heated seats as DLC, as well as subscriptions for “self driving” packages.
• They will advertise/upsell their own services in their app, including free trials of their “premium” features.
• If you think they are using your driving data (including camera feeds) in any responsible way then I have a bridge to sell you. There have been documented cases of Tesla employees watching their customers fuck on the interior cameras.

For context - I used to own one.

If this works in any way, shape or form for BMW then you can bet that any other manufacturer selling “connected vehicles” will sit up and take notice.

If my brand new car started pushing dashboard ads to me, it would be rejected and returned to the dealer immediately. That is the only kind of pushback they would pay attention to.

We were definitely taught it in the UK, would have been in fourth year of primary school if I remember correctly (so that would be roughly US grade 3 or so).

Because nobody thought to build a rail connection to the Orkney islands.

If I’m not going far, not driving or not planning on spending much then yes, wallet stays at home.

Otherwise, if I’m driving then I’m taking my driving license with me (you never know), if I’m making a purchase over the contactless limit then I need to take my actual card with me anyway, or if I’m away for a longer period then I might need cards that I don’t have linked to my phone (like my corporate card - like fuck am I putting that in my phone).

And for all that, I’d rather have a wallet instead of just a loose amalgamation of plastic in my pockets.

There is precedent for this.

The PM is the head of government and is ultimately responsible and accountable for its actions and policies. They are also the head of their political party and thus will have a say on what policies are brought to the table (although they do still need to be voted on in the houses).

Our PM is not technically the head of state (that’s the King, from whose power the government derives its authority), however for all intents and purposes they may as well be.

So yes, his resignation will have an impact.

Apart from the times that the US applied export controls to encryption software.

I like my geese free and thriving

YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO SURVIVE MAKE YOUR TIME

You really gonna do the Blades dirty like that?!

There are only two industries that call their customers ‘users’…

I dunno, I reckon ‘DRAL YAES’ goes harder

I’ve switched both my laptop and desktop over to Linux (Bazzite and Fedora respectively) in the last 6 months.

The last time I tried to daily Linux (over a decade ago) I ended up switching back eventually, but this time I really don’t think I’ll need to. All of the games I play most often work perfectly, the dev tooling is even better than it is on Windows, and the hardware compatibility side has been completely flawless.

Gone are the days of having to hunt down obscure Linux drivers for your touchpad or webcam. Everything just works out of the box.

Hot take: Nintendo peaked with the Wii.

No shit. Chess programs are specifically built and optimised to the nth degree for this specific use case and nothing else. They do not share the massive compute overhead and convoluted nondeterministic nature of an LLM.

This is like drag racing an F1 car and a Camry and being surprised at the result.
