Nope, I’ll bet it is like five IF statements and the best part is that it is consistent!

That is just a simple algorithm that uses .000001% processing power. I’m sure they will turn it into an AL feature that takes 2% power and is always slightly off of what I want it to be.

The absolute most infuriating one is dynamically placed menus, like how all the stupid video conferencing that move the menu bar to the top of bottom following seemingly arbitrary rules. Why does a nearly full screen window have the menu at the top and a full screen at the bottom? What does moving from top to bottom accomplish?

I know there are a lot of people who love it for the same reasons I hated it, people have different tastes.

I love Lord of the Flies because it gets to the point!

Moby Dick is the book I hated the most. Just the worst slog that i remember making it through.

Oh shit, I thought this was a joke at first.

According to ET News, the company plans to implement an AI feature on its devices “that can predict what consumers want in advance by improving the performance of ‘touch points’ such as keyboard and camera.”

Every one of the ‘features’ results in the exact opposite of what I want the thing to do. I have become a grumpy old man yelling “Stop fucking helping!” at hardware and software that tries to be ‘intuitive’.

Samsung devices already let you change various settings without opening the Settings menu using Bixby. However, this implementation requires users to trigger Bixby and issue a voice command. In contrast, the AI-powered solution could automatically change settings based on usage patterns.

I want it to be consistent dammit!

Dems do have a history of disputing election results that are the outcome of blatant voter suppression. Kind of hard to have a free and fair election when people are turned away from the polls, or not enough time is allocated to count votes, or people are removed from the voter rolls for bullshit reasons. You know, things that led to the Voting Rights Act and other practices.

Equating that reasonable objection with “Find me the votes” and other blatant election fraud from Republicans is so damn frustrating.

Since the vast majority of website users are minimally engaged, I would love for a few more active posters for stability of content and discussion, but not a massive influx of users just to have users.

I also don’t want a plethora of users who get banned repeatedly for not being selfaware that their behavior is the problem. The occosional crossed wires ban, no biggie, but thinking there are so many glass people that creating dozens of alts is necessary is not a good look.

Anything that makes people hornier and more likely to procreate is an evolutionary advantage.

Mmmmm, yes. Good ol’ toxic positivity.

Nipples are sensitive and sensitive things can help with arousal and reproduction. That makes them useful for the population in general, even if not everyone is into it.

I guess I meant an actual use for them.

Licking is an actual use.

It looks like they have the capability based on this police documentary.

I wonder if animation will filll the gaps.

Not mixing fabrics and certain food practices were originally based on lived experience, like safety guidance, before getting coopted by religion. Kosher practices avoid cross contamination, and mixed fabrics could have something to do with temperature regulation in desert areas where it swings between extreme heat and cold daily. Or it could have existed to discourage lying about prodict quality by those who would sneak in poor quality materials.

When religion got ahold of these concepts they were absolutely twisted into controlling people.

But apparently written religious works or talking about god’s work is perfect, or that would be banned too.

Bacteria, spores, and other microscopic life are in every picture taken of the natural world at a minimum.

Or, old fucks who were born around the time of the holocaust still think of all Jewish people as victims of the holocaust and can’t wrap their head around the fact that some Jewish people can be just as horrible as anyone else.

One of the reasons cited is that since negotiations were suspended, there has been no discussion among international players involved in the talks.

I can’t imagine why people aren’t talking about the thing you stopped doing!
