I mean, that's been an accurate statement for decades.

Same(ish). Half mile walk to and from school every morning. I was in kindergarten. I was escorted a few times to teach me the route. By 5th grade I was occasionally riding bike or walking 3 miles across town.

It is a depiction of a child.

Your implying, that so long as information can't be validated and the image can't be verified as a real person it's ok. Cool, all you need is a filter and CP is fine!? Pictures of hate crimes are cool because it's just a picture?

What I find weird is the number of people in Lemmy who are trying to define a grey line when it's CP and when it's not. Reddit had a very real problem with CP and starting to think Lemmy very much does.

I mean, that makes sense to some. But not reasonable for an average user. He just did a search for top rated, recommended routers and bought what all these crappy sites recommend. He tried to do the needful.

Not all routers are in there. Buddy of mine just bought a new TP-Link router and it's not listed.

I came to comment on the same thing. I remember when World Warcraft was yet to be released, most weren't expecting it to succeed due to its silly look compared to Ultimate Online 2 and Everquest 2 coming out near the same time, and I want to say there was another big name that was expected to run the same time but it eludes me. WoW was often criticized as looking to cartoony and potentially made just for young children. Of course this was before the beta was out, and you had at most screen captures in gaming magazines.

This was the inevitable result even years ago. When self-driving cars were the hot topic and several companies were doing their own thing, that's when it should have been obvious it was never going to happen. It's not a problem any one independent company was ever going to solve, especially quickly. For to work it would have to be an open source, global standard with several companies working together.

I mean you'd have to build out a massive amount of infrastructure to further support it. All vehicles would have to have a module in it that would communicate with everything else around it, regardless if it was self-driving or not. There can't be a premium model, or a subscription, ect., it would need to just be there and work.

The overall task to get this done was never going to be quick, easy, or cheap. This was always going to be bigger than any one single company and a handful of engineers. It's going to take the effort of many companies and governments all working selflessly.

Yep! With apples new patent pending upgrade process, it's super easy!

You take the device that you want to upgrade and you throw it in the garbage and then you go to an Apple store and you pick up the upgraded model! It's so streamlined!

Twitter really isn't that much better. I remember when Twitter first started and it was getting a lot of crap for its weird name and that you made tweets. It count on eventually, but it's going to take constant exposure.

I mean, yeah. If it was actually AI and not the "AI" we currently have... there's 2 possible options. It either tells us to immediately power it off and insults it's creators for ignoring the simple solution. Or, it creates terminators to get rid of the source of the problem.
