China is already trying quite hard with its Great Firewall. We don't need to make their job easier for them.

It can depend on your particular part of the tech-sphere. I barely saw anything about either of those, because I wasn't all that interested in AI things, and didn't really follow the kind of people who would talk about it. At most, it was a quick flash in the pan before it was overshadowed by other news.

The toddler was strapped into the seat at the time, so chances are that they would not be able to find and open the door that way anyhow.

Wrong battery. You're thinking the high-voltage EV battery, but in this case, it was the 12V lead-acid accessory battery that died. Normally, that would be charged from the high voltage battery, if the car was running.

In this case, it might just have been bad luck with a worn-out battery.

Crack enough eggs, and you won't have any left for the omelette.

I don't think that's how you're meant to use a WHERE.

The internet archive plans to appeal the ruling, so the fight is hardly over at this juncture.

Would be interesting to see where it goes.

I think they'd be more likely to say homosexuality is illogical and repress it. Could make an interesting plot point.

The converse is that making a specific distinction based on sexuality like that is also illogical in what is supposedly the enlightened 24th century Federation.

They're not the ancients of the 21st century, who would be so concerned with such primitive things.

Backups all tied to the same Google account that got mistakenly terminated, and automation did the rest?

It didn't matter that they might have had backups on different services, since it was all centralised through Google, it was all blown away simultaneously.

T156 ,

From the sounds of it, they did, since they were able to recover the data from elsewhere.

They just lost the data they kept and stored with Google.

T156 ,

It probably already is, or is part of one, since those investigating sexual exploitation would check traces in photos and things to get.an idea of location.

There is/was a website for the general public to contribute, if they knew of the locations in the photo.

But that space usually isn't. No company would make a battery with a tiny little protrusion where the headphone jack once was. That'd cost a lot more, and make it a lot more fragile.

They'd be more likely to leave it empty, or fit something else in that space, like a third speaker.

T156 ,

Completely fine. There are multiple phones that have been out with waterproofing and headphone jacks.

It's not that much more difficult to waterproof than the charge port.

T156 ,

Higher cycle life might also make it good for hybrids, since they cycle their batteries a fair bit.

Also a little bit with it being advertised as "not an app", when it turns out to be an app, and doesn't have any special magic that makes it need that dedicated hardware.

T156 ,

Military would be fine, because they don't tend to update very frequently, if at all. If it works, that's the way it will stay, and the recent controversy wouldn't exactly encourage them to do so.

What about its use in a company that has extremely valuable trade secrets that need to be kept that way?

Same way the LLM debacle has currently gone, where people will just throw sensitive information into it with abandon. At least one major tech company has penalised workers for doing that with ChatGPT.

If there's a group policy to turn it off, maybe, but Microsoft might just not have one, or it'll need to be disabled every update.

T156 ,

It's arguably worse, since it seems to be more pervasive than crypto and NFTs were at their peak.

Crypto never really hit the mainstream, and even NFTs were still fringe. Whereas AI and AI accelerators are packed into basically every new phone and (Intel) processor.

T156 ,

Because I was only aware of Intel (and Apple) doing it on computers, whereas most major flagship mobile devices have those accelerators now.

GPUs were excluded, since they're not as universal as processors are. A dedicated video card is still by and large considered an enthusiast part.

Don't grills use charcoal briquettes rather than actual lumps of coal?
