And mechanics exploit people needing brake jobs. What's your point?

Is John deere exempt?

I say it's "easy" because you have so little say in what you can do with it.

Iphone has always been pitched as intuitive and "it just works", and it seems like it is that way for iphone users.

But when I try using one I'm lost as hell. It seems God awful. In other words, intuitive is whatever you're used to.

I didn't figure. I'm sure they could be taught to be much better, but normal computing can already play chess more or less perfectly. There really isn't much any room left to be gained.

Some of it. For a limited amount of time. Mainly surrounding job losses and ability to use a person's voice and likeness, and for preventing AI from writing scripts. It's a Hollywood contract so there's lots of room for bullshit to still go on. It doesn't outright prevent Hollywood from using AI.

I just own a kindle paperwhite wifi only edition. After setting it up initially, it's never had the wifi turned on again.

I've never tried/transferred files to it from my phone, though. I'll just plug it into a pc and use Calibre to convert and add books I want.

I get to this part and feel like I'm being trolled.

"meaning the reading of data and leaking it through a side channel—is a flagrant violation of the constant-time paradigm."

Shit. Empress finally up and quit? Or got paid enough by denuvo?

Bet you're not quite right on that.

I used a great apk on reddit before reddit fucked it over with the api call fiasco. That's when I moved to lemmy and found an apk called Thunder that is extremely similar. So right now the only real difference for me is the much lower user base, so there's less "niche" subs/instances. Of course, that will also go away so long as people keep migrating over.

I wonder how soon I'll be able to buy puts on reddit and actually make some cash from them.
