Pretty amazing… that apple allows access to the sensors, and provides an option to mirror the screen over HDMI! Given how touchy feely they were about openning the NFC stack, this is truly unbelievable.

If the only way to a revolution is making lives more miserable, is the revolution even worthy? Something, something, accelerationism…

Luckily, the patch won’t install for me, because the default size of the recovery partition is too low.

I’m confused by this revelation. What did everybody think the box was?

The best way to do on-device AI would still be a standard SoC. We tend to forget that these mass produced mobile SoCs are modern miracles for the price, despite the crapy software and firmware support from the vendors.

No small startup is going to revolutionize this space unless some kind of new physics is discovered.

What we call intelligence is largely a genetic trait. Otherwise I’d be able to have this conversation with my dog.

I think the main point is, if the genetic predisposition to what we call intelligence does not positively affect the reproduction rate, the process of evolution could phase it out at any time. The “goal” of evolution is adaptation in order to reproduce. The intelligence is not THE strategy to adapt, its A strategy. It could be replaced by something else, like faster reproduction rate, or the ability to survive in harsh environment without a need for clothes, housing, and medicine.

Well, the world is your oyster… Can’t wait for yout chief automated officer.

edit: There was a similar hype back in the blockchain era, where people were trying to build decentralized organizations by making all the shareholders directly vote on every decision. Let’s just say this model wasn’t especially successful except for very rare circumstances.

What effort? To make the whole shitshow a bit worse? They had an option to do nothing, and they said this?

Guilty as charged, your honor.

So they will just milk it until it no longer resembles a cow. Understood.

Nothing tells “peace” more than smugling a pigeon in a zipped up bag to a lenghty debate.

There should not be any consequences! The governments should stop treating citizens like a lifestock.

That’s a common misconception, but you are under no obligation to sacrifice your life for anyone without a prior consent.

If an organization tries to control your body or demands you to sacrifice your life, it’s a dangerous cult. Run.

We had that. It wasn’t a future.

And they managed to do it without us obsessing about their CEO several times a day? I refuse to believe that!

When the train can park next to my house so that my grandma on a wheelchair can get in, or get me to a KFC in the middle of the night, or move a random piece of furniture, I’m in.

A nice bike lane infrastructure would be a blast too, for when you don’t need to move a cargo.

Both are must for large cities, but unrealistic pretty much everywhere else.

As for KFC deliveries. That doesn’t involve your own personal car so that doesn’t make any sense.

I used to be a city dweller, like you. But now, in bumfuck nowhere, we deliver our own food.

What’s the excuse then?

Any educated individual should already be able to figure out the dangers of communism. If they’re not, what the hell is wrong with the american education system?
