Really, because I have a Bosch and I had to install the app and then use HACS to install an integration which goes through their cloud.

I don’t use that for anything more than alerts but it’s annoying it has zero local control. This is a perfect use case for Zigbee or Z-Wave and if I’m paying a premium I don’t get why I wouldn’t get premium features.

Also some features are app only (special dry modes etc) so if I want the functionality I paid for I have to be signed up for their cloud.

Newer Bosch lock SOME features behind their app. There are literally no buttons for it, you HAVE to have a smartphone and internet and you HAVE to use their app to use the features.

EDIT: clarified that it’s only some features

McDonald’s also had a ”Third Pounder” and it had the same issue

This has never happened to me on a systemd server before. Methinks you left out some details

That’s good because they can’t do math anyway

Goood thing there is no AGI

Eh I’d be fine with a crosspost

It’s beyond satire that any politician thinks this is OK to say in any fucking context and little Rhonda should be in jail for it, prosecuted as an accomplice when someone actually goes out and does it

I don’t have the article but basically when the rich aren’t taxed proportionally, their wealth and therefore power grows, while the lower classes get squeezed harder as they must give up a greater portion of their wealth in order to fund the obligations toward said infrastructure that keeps the whole machine running.

When used inappropriately, they are one piece of the larger system that funnels all the wealth upwards at the expense of everyone and everything else.

She shouldn’t be forced to confess to a crime she did not commit in order to be released by her kidnappers. Stop doing hasbara on the timeline

Really then why are they cramming AI into every app and every device and replacing jobs with it and claiming they’re saving so much time and money and they’re the best now the hardest working most efficient company and this is the future and they have a director of AI vision that’s right a director of AI vision a true visionary to lead us into the promised land where we will make money automatically please bro just let this be the automatic money cheat oh god I’m about to

It’s annoying that every middle manager is trying to become the hero of their company by pushing it inappropriately into every single field at the expense of productivity and jobs, while simultaneously the largest most powerful companies are slinging their SaaS solutions built on stolen data which are destroying communities of both the physical and hobby varieties and consuming more natural resources than all the fucking crypto scams of the last like 10 years

But yeah it’s neat I guess

In addition to what everyone else has said, they’re doing all this not-useful work replacing humans with unrealistic hype, but to do it they’re using up SO MUCH natural resources it’s astonishing.

They have caused chip shortages. They are extracting all the natural water from aquifers in an area for cooling and then dumping it because it’s no longer potable. Microsoft and Google are talking about building nuclear power plants dedicated JUST to the LLMs.

They are doing this all for snake oil as others have pointed out. It’s destroying the world socially, economically, and physically. And not in a “oh cars disrupted buggy whips” kind of way; in a “the atmosphere is no longer breathable” kind of way.

No, and to make that work using the current structures we use for creating AI models we’d probably need all the collective computing power on earth at once.

Found it in my settings, not sure how I’ve missed it. Been a Bitwarden user since the first LastPass hack.

If your numbers are accurate it puts an even stranger light on those trying to justify “teaching the DNC a lesson!”

What exactly is the lesson? “You can get us to vote for more of the evil you support if you make us mad enough”? The Overton window is a flat circle?

I really really don’t understand why “if you won’t stop our extermination then we’ll fucking directly vote for it” teaches the DNC any lesson at all except “we can be guilt free collaborators and reap all the benefits”

“We’ll show you - we’ll pick the guy who wants the genocide just for the real estate opportunities.”

I’m all for sending a message (and honestly one is more than deserved for the DNC and their role in all this) but this is the definition of cutting off the nose to spite the face

I was just going to say synthesizer but if we’re being specific the TB-303 is the king, especially with some real dirty overdrive
