Not only that, but many local businesses don’t have websites and just use Facebook. Marketplace is another reason, Craigslist is practically dead near me.

A few weeks ago, some friends and I decided to go out for some drinks. We agreed upon a place and met up, only to find there was a Journey cover band performing with a $10 cover charge at the door. All of us hate Journey lol

I checked the website beforehand but it hadn’t been updated in months. However a friend checked their facebook page after we found out, and saw that they had posted about the band on there only 24 hours before.

While I do agree that AI is not environmentally friendly, the only way the hype train is going to die is when investors quit dumping money into it.

While many of you may hate me for this, I intentionally waste it. Arguing with it saying the sky is green, asking it to write code and telling it the code doesn’t work, etc.

Maxing out my free account usage intentionally by just asking pointless questions and never giving up. Every prompt drains just a little bit of these investors confidence that their investment will ever turn a profit.

Profit is clearly the only thing they care about. Hit em where it hurts.

I personally like the sugar free version better. Especially the summer sudachi lime flavor

Unfortunately, it’s either this or get a smart TV and never connect it to the internet and use a streaming device or computer. However with the computer option, some platforms like Netflix won’t let you stream 4K without meeting their strict requirements.

Or just become a pirate and never deal with streaming services again.

Absolutely agree! Unfortunately for myself, I live in a medium size city that doesn’t seem to have much of anything going on. About the only interest based activities available that I am not interested in is volunteering at the animal shelter. I don’t think my heart can handle that and I’d end up with 10 more cats lol

This. Right before AI became public, I remember Google searches were getting more and more crammed with SEO bullshit. Now we have AI powered SEO and searching for anything is super difficult.

Complete opposite experience for my office. Calls drop randomly, consultative transfers don’t work, holds don’t always reconnect. Had none of these issues when we had Skype for Business. Even had a VoIP consultant firm come in to review our issues, they couldn’t fix them.

I was fine with teams when we only used it for meetings, team chats, and IM.

We at least have the option of buying an older ICE vehicle that doesn’t include that nonsense. Although yes, that will likely come with higher maintenance and repair costs due to the age.

Either way, the telemetry issue needs to end on vehicles entirely.

It is a valid point. I have a coworker whose wife has a Tesla. They recently moved but had been searching for a place for about 6 months. Luckily, their previous place allowed them to sign a month-to-month lease while they searched.

They found a nice rental home with a garage that was wired for 240v (yes we’re in the US) and signed the lease. Only for them to find out the 240v outlet wouldn’t work because someone had stole the wiring. Landlord won’t fix it, so they have to use the slow Level 1 charger. She now cannot use the vehicle for work related trips without using a public charging station because of the distance.
