Dyskolos

I’m not that tolerant to half-assed :) If it wouldn’t net the wanted result, why even bother wasting precious time for something half-cooked? But probably depends on the what, where, when and why.

Name one really good application for baked-in? Nothing useful comes to my mind. And i’m not categorically against AI.

I said baked into the OS. Noone needs that. Everyone who needs ai can open a browser. That was the whole topic here, not usefulness of ai in general 😊

Sounds annoying. But we just recently introduced those selfcheckouts. We’re probably still midage and changes like those will come.

I’m no murican…

How could one boycott food? Especially if literally everything went up? I can stop buying cars or whatever else, but not food.

Hence yes, it’s stealing. Not in a technical sense OFC. And it’s not because a good became more scarce or anything, but just greed. Plain and simple.

Also yes, it’s not the grocery’s fault. But as said, can’t rob a factory or a CEO. And as everyone is raking in record profits, it’s fine.

As a sided note: I didn’t raise prices of my stuff and I also didn’t raise rents of my apartments (I’m still just at covering costs, not earning). We’re doing good, employees happy, why should I? To expand? To have more stuff? Greed has no limit, and with things like rent or food, people have no choice to “vote with their wallet”.

Interesting. Sounds pretty foolproof. Wonder why they don’t do such thing here. You just scan or you don’t.

True. But I’d argue having money is way worse. Doesn’t even matter if you’re ugly as shit, people will always try to rent an apt in your arse. At least when they know you’re loaded. Then it’s game over. Can’t trust anyone anymore. Ever.

Didn’t say that was a reason to gulp it down. Just that the use cases aren’t zero.

Knew a quadriplegic that gamed with her mouth on windows. A really well working, integrated “ai” would’ve dramatically improved her life and saved her hundreds of thousands for all the equipment and tech-guys. And yes, that’s a very limited use case, but would allow poorer disabled people to also use a computer better.

But that’s really all good reasons I can come up with. For all else noone needs the shit baked into the OS.

But d2, cod and others won’t. So already millions of gamers that couldn’t switch. Me included. Love d2.

And I didn’t say it’s good or that those root kits won’t suck. I just stated those players can’t switch. No matter how great all linuxes are (I run 20 Linux vs 5 win machines at home, so I do favor it).

I’d say there would be a great benefit for a lot of e.g. disabled people who can’t use the traditional inputs. Not saying that as a pro-ai/pro-win argument. Just that there actually will be good use-cases.

But nearly no multiplayer will work (due to stupid anti-cheat) Which is a very large base of the gamers who can never switch, even if they’d want to.

Interesting. Where are the weighs? Do you HAVE to out your bag on a special place?

I wonder we don’t have that yet too. But then again, overworked and understaffed. Noone cares if anything beeps or not. Even if the door-alarms go off, nothing happens. In no store, ever. It’s just that the vast majority of Germans are so obedient, they instantly stop, go to the next employee and explain themselves.

might work, but that’s a bit of overkill. I prefer sleigh-of-hand or simply not scanning many things. People are already overworked and understaffed, noone’s gonna check anyway. The cameras are just scare-tactics too.

Monopolize? Great. Should I ever visit the US (no I would not), I’d go there and steal a lot :)

lol. Well I’m not old enough to go for the “confused”-route :)

Whatever a “Kroger” might be, but luckily the world has morally intact people like you! And I’m not frustrated, it’s not about the money, it’s the principle. Someone in the chain did raise prices for items I can’t boycott, I don’t care who. Also I don’t need justification. To whom should I justity? to you? lol.

Yeah, we still laugh about that. “How the fuck did we manage to loose a fucking door? Noone just goes out here with a door for fucks sake. Count again!” 😊

…while we paid for the hinges 😁 Sometime it’s really simple: if you just do it as if you’re allowed to do it, noone questions it. Like going right into spaces you’re not supposed to go, if you’re wearing something orange, a screwdriver or whatever else and just fucking go there as if you own the place.

The places I’ve been to without ever been questioned, including ceos offices or treasuries or…just because suit and laptop in hand. I was actually allowed but I was never ever questioned or stopped. Might be my nasty resting bitch face, I dunno 😁

You’re right, we just lack dedication 😫
