It’s not clear if skipping account setup also disables AI so I’m not sure if there is a Terms of Service that must be accepted.

Feels like something someone would at least attempt to sue Apple over for not disclosing upfront.

Neither can I.

If I wanted to live on a farm, I wouldn’t need to move more than a few miles.

But why would I want to change to a career that does not generate income and requires I work every single day all day?

This can be turned off after setup.

It’s stupid that this is the feature they decide to force considering using an Apple account during setup is still optional.

Impossible! If a foreign soldier steps on American soil, ICE will just deport them.

You sound like a subject matter expert.

What are you guys charging in today’s market?

Amazon does not require a brand but having a brand allows the seller better access into amazing seller’s tools.

Amazing incentivizes this shit and does not give a fuck about it. They could be easily detecting this using LLMs but they don’t because they only care so it profits.

Yes and now we have no tools to fight it. There were rules against anti-union activities; union workers died for those rights.

That’s all null and void and without a change at the highest levels, it will stay that way.

Yes but that was also before propaganda was a class in college. Now they don’t need to set things on fire, just convince a chunk of workers to vote against unions. The cost to suppress unions has never been cheaper.

We have a husk of a shell that we once called the Supreme Court that decided that corporations have a right to free speech.

Toe that with all the benefits of a corporate entity and we end up where corporation speech is more free than that of a person.

What is the point of posting a comment to say you’re disregarding an opinion.

Do you always loudly announce everyone you do something no one gives a shit about?

No matter how fanboi-y a Linux or Apple user gets, they can never out fanboi a Microsoft fanboi. They take making shit up about competitors to a entirely new level.

Movies that just objectively are flawed, but you can’t help but enjoy. Like Colors out of Space starring Nic Cage

How dare you!

I tried muddling my way through it but gave up.

I’ve watched some truly terrible movies but this one really irks me. I recall it being pretentious and yet banal.

Calling out the cigarettes but ignoring the next line about kerosene.

I’ve been using a cable modem or better since the end of the 90’s.
