The easiest thing in the world is not to connect your fridge to the internet.

Also don't buy Samsung refrigerators they are truly truly horrific.

I'm an appliance repairman.

Volkswagen is so bad at this! They have phone connectivity but they bog down the infotainment with they're own crap software. The GPS is so bad it slowes down the whole system. I will never use vw maps. Ever. Just stop!

And Chevy just doesn't have android auto on or apple play on their lower trim levels. But they do compensate by integrating Google maps at least.

Kia is the best though. Minimal proprietary software. Plug your phone in and android auto automatically comes up.

Also just announced: new patents on covers opening and closing and adjustable legs.

Virtual Boy games will all release at full price individually.

Omg. Please let this happen. Not because I care about Charlie. No, he was a racist asshole who reaped the rewards if his own rhetoric.

No no. I just want a sculpture to try and figure out how close he should make Kirks eyes. Knowing that someone had to actually objectively think about that makes me feel all warm and tingly on the inside.

God. Are we back on this loop again?!! Incidentally what is the most selling game currently?

A game about a bug with a needle? Super violent.

I won't get yt premium out of sheet principle but with the whole side loading crap going with android I might have to.

Really? You just turn it in and let it run... It'll drain your battery a bit faster but theres almost no effort on your part.

I stopped using Spotify over a decade ago. Now I just use Pandora which is actually still pretty good. And occasionally I'll use YouTube music if I want to check out a new band or something. But Spotify is pretty usless.

No. Its grammer. No one says grammAR everyone says it with er. It's spelled grammar due to tradition and nothing else. Same reason the ph is still prevelant in the English language.

Ehhhhhh the English language is terrible!

Of course. Although ai, or more accurately llms do have use functions they are not the star trek computer.

I use chatgpt as a Grammer check all the time. It's great for stuff like that. But it's definitely not a end all be all solution to productivity.

I think corporations got excited llms could replace human labor... But it can't.
