The same audience from Cryogenics will be, probably, the one using these services. Even if the service is quakery.

Hehe. Interesting the view of these BS "facts" of Varginha when coming in from the International Press. Inside Brazil, this remote city inside Minas Gerais is a joke to most of us Brazilians. Stories "without feet and head" as we call it here. But there are similar cities in other countries with the same tourist alien-themed "attractions". There are nuts for every job out there, I guess.

I like the part where, in their feature video, they say they tried to make the propellers sound like “the rustle of leaves in a breeze” or “wind in the trees.” I still can’t find a video of them taking off vigorously anywhere. While hovering, they sound like a regular airplane at medium throttle. Maybe experiencing it live would sound different. The effort should be lauded, I guess.

Another hardware limitation rebranded as a distracting interface “feature.” Those who keep buying Apple products deserve it.

Cheaper to own in Africa? 5% of households in Africa have a car. This is some weird news at all.

What worries me most is that AI is increasingly...doing...things...in the world, yet it lacks fundamental human(?) directives such as ethics, moral reasoning, integrity, honesty, fairness, respect for others, non-maleficence, and beneficence. Even more concerning is that AI has no real understanding of its own position, role, or impact while producing these actions. Despite this absence of awareness, it generates answers to its own prompts, fabricates content to justify its outputs, and presents these fabrications with confidence. This behavior demonstrates that AI can replicate the same patterns seen in unethical humans: creating plausible narratives, rationalizing outcomes, and masking uncertainty with authority, without any internal moral compass or sense of responsibility.

eSIM works flawlessly in Brazil. I have never had a problem with it. It also makes it much easier to obtain local numbers in other countries upon arrival. By contrast, the situations described in the article suggest that the U.S. infrastructure is comparatively low quality. Additionally, eSIM is significantly more secure and simplifies blocking a device if it is stolen. The complaints outlined in the article do not resonate with my experience at all.

I seriously don't understand all the complain W11 gets. People are use to complain about everything, of course but I use Windows since 2.0, while using DOS, Solaris, HP-UX, Linux and the heck of it all. Windows 11 has its nags but nothing that seriously impacts "productivity". Microsoft Teams is way worse than Windows in all productivity aspects, if you ask me.

This will never be a thing globally, ever. One thing that we don't need is paying for any service related to consumer appliances in the Kitchen, which is precisely what's going to happen later. We have enough already, in the TV.

Every OS has its weak points. I never seen this happening to my Windows machines. On Linux I generally have to tweak things to make them work, or, the number of bugs tend to be a lot higher than any Windows I ever worked. My first machines were 386 running Conectiva Marumbi Linux around 1995.

If that's not a grave sign of a bubble, then I don't know anything anymore.

As usually, we must remember that humans corrupt everything. This will be more more like "Personal Eavesdropping", not "superintellingence" bs.

I don't respect any robots that walk like they crapped themselves.

I have a S24U, in which Bixby deeply sucks. It cannot do basic stuff accurately. I avoid it.
