I remember Elon foolishly saying his cars don’t need radar or lidar. Even software-disabling radar in cars that already had the hardware.

I’ll take him seriously if & when OpenAI lives up to its name.

Medium is a shit hole. I won’t click any links to it.

Lemmy won’t.

I mean all the plug-ins should work

“Blonde” was one of their early attempts at this. They know when the story is losing you so then they have a few minutes of Ana De Armas topless, fapping, etc to get your attention back.

My favorite sites for actual ebooks are Humble Bundle and Fantastic. But these are predominantly tech books. No idea where I’d get good fiction in epub today.

Addendum: that specific site is dog shit. Imagine thinking you just bought an ebook but instead you bought a lease to some DRM shit that only works on their app.

I’ve been buying Apple stuff since they were paying Woz to solder. All of this boot licking they’ve been doing is really killing my life-long love of this company.

But Google doesn’t offer a very compelling safe harbor to migrate to with Android, do they?

I guess I’ve just experienced too many times the pain of a sqlite database getting corrupted.

Let’s also remember that “U.S. officials” now describes MAGA flunkies that replaced actually qualified professionals.
