No you rude fuck. If i ask a simple question about a subject, let's say foraging as a I do that a lot. And it's wrong, it's friggin wrong. I'll ask about a specific plant. Full disclosure this is one of my things. 40 years at it. Ok? No big stretch to think I know a thing or two. So I ask about let's say, Japanese barberry. An invasive plant that is hated by many and rightly so at times. The question is , is it edible? The answer given was no. The truth is the opposite. It is edible. Hell there's recipes online for barberry jam. Now don't go just eating them though. Smart to test one or two leaves to see if an individual is allergic. That's not part of the answer, that's foraging 101. But I digress. The a.i was wrong and then argued about it until I pulled up all of the evidence. The a.i then admitted it was wrong, but who cares? It's not alive. Winning an argument with a.i is like beating oneself at poker. Another example I'll ask about intervals in music ( guitar teacher as my main profession now, as my passion for 48 years). It got the major scale intervals wrong. I asked ask if yogurt can replace eggs as a binding agent to one of them (can't remember which, apologies ) and it said no. That's a friggin home ec tip that's been around for at least a century People who give dissertations don't brag about it. Especially to make a point in a thread. It only makes one seem like a person who isn't confident in what they're saying so they drop a line that they feel will impress others. It doesn't Others experience is as important, vital and real as yours, regarding the answers given by a.i , but you'll brush it off because you feel that some how you have more insight than others. You dont. You just have more time to pour through a.i's mistakes to massage it to getting something close to what you want. That shows an abundance of time available. Which means you aren't doing the things I'm talking about. Or it means this is something you do for your job and it works for those specific needs . Which is fine, but your needs are not the world's. My need have been poorly met by that tool you spouse. Much like a rake won't help a guy digging a hole, a.i is the wrong tool for most jobs. Which means your opinion of my evaluation of a. I results is skewed because you don't value others experience, no matter how intelligent you are. And that is a sign of ignorance. I wish you a good day

Which are?

Absolute horseshit. Bulbs don't have microphones. If they did, any junior security hacker could sniff out the traffic and post about it for cred. The article quickly pivots to TP-Link and other devices exposing certificates. That has nothing to do with surveillance and everything to do with incompetent programming. Then it swings over to Matter and makes a bunch of incorrect assertion I don't even care to correct. Also, all the links are to articles on the same site, every single one of which is easily refutable crap. Yes, there are privacy tradeoffs with connected devices, but this article is nothing but hot clickbait garbage.

What does any of this have to do with anything anyway? Humans invented the first human language. People have ideas that aren't simple derivatives of other ideas.

The important thing is that the doomsday device runs Linux

If you want a narrative, look at all the full-price $250k Roadster pre-orders they've been holding onto for like 8 years now with zero signs of production and complete silence for the last...5 years?

The platform owners don’t consider engagement to me be participation in meaningful discourse. Engagement to them just means staying on the platform while seeing ads. If bots keep people doing that those platforms will keep letting them in.
