The brand can be a great identifier. If the response is “Apple”, I can’t help you. If the response is “HP” or “Dell” or “Walmart”, I know the issue is likely because of proprietary garbage that’s locked down “for the safety of the user”.

When speaking to the computer illiterate, the brand question will usually be answered with either “Apple” or “Windows”. You gotta get that answer out of the way so you don’t waste 15 minutes trying to get someone to right-click something only to find out they only have 1 mouse button.

Man who clicks confirmation for leopards to delete his work is angry and surprised when his work is deleted.

“I wanna drink some milk, but it’s so flimmin-flammin hard to open.”

Current AI is a glorified predictive text keyboard.

Almost perfect.

The battle cry of conservatives everywhere: It’s too hard!

Except if it involves oppressing minorities and women. Then it’s a moral imperative worth all the time and money you can shovel at it regardless of whether the desired outcome is realistic or not.

That implies that the enshittification will stop when profits increase, but we all know that it will never stop.

No… Display isn’t big enough.

I’m convinced that the only reason they did the eye thing is so they can get micro transactions for people buying custom eyes like cats and aliens and shit.

Spoken like someone who lacks vision.

How about going to a foreign country and being able to navigate the streets like a local thanks to the overly guiding you to your destination like Waze? How about being able to read signs and communicate with locals thanks to the instant translation services built in? How about a virtual assistant that can walk you through an oil change specifically for your car? How about a cooking assistant that can warn you if your pot is about to boil over or if you forgot to add the butter? How about taking my shitty dystopian studio apartment and giving me a balcony view of a tropical beach?

There are countless applications for AR ranging from the mundane to the extremely helpful. The tech needs to be developed more before it will be adopted by the masses, but it’s far from useless.

By 2030 we’ll have AR in a sunglasses form factor with integrated AI that will be able to digitally remove the clothing of everyone you see with a good degree of accuracy for what’s underneath.

Is the Mac laptop so you aren’t tempted to touch it unless you have to work?

VR uses a lot of RAM.

According to my exes, yes.

Is there a similar tool that will “poison” my personal tracked data? Like, I know I’m going to be tracked and have a profile built on me by nearly everywhere online. Is there a tool that I can use to muddy that profile so it doesn’t know if I’m a trans Brazilian pet store owner, a Nigerian bowling alley systems engineer, or a Beverly Hills sanitation worker who moonlights as a practice subject for budding proctologists?

I stand corrected. It’s not just a failing of the public school system. You’ve completely dissociated from reality.

You really have absolutely no idea about factual history, do you? Another failing of the public school system…

Better seen on Pornhub next to some anal fisting than on Twitter/X next to blatant nazi propaganda.

WRONG! After minorities, it’s poor people. Then doing their job. :P
