My first job I spent 3 years working on a variety of projects that never shipped. It was frustrating at the time, but the experience was good for me. Now I have fun writing code and working with my teammates and if my code doesn’t ship, well it’s not as bad as not having anything ship for 3 years.
They are running a 2004 week, looking back at tech from that era.
This was a survey. They weren’t gathering data without consent.
There is a Mac app called Rewind that came out a couple of years ago that does the same thing. There was also an open source thing for Windows. Everyone is desperate to show that they are hip and can do AI. It looks like someone at Microsoft saw a demo of one of those apps and thought that putting it into Windows would let them brag about how much AI Windows can do. They clearly tried to rush it out in time for their Copilot PC marketing push.
The idea is that you can use local LLM models and image scanning to talk to your computer. You could ask it to summarize your day, ask what you were working on last week, or find those articles you vaguely remember reading last year and can’t find anymore. I can almost see the merit, but the security risk is so high.
I wonder if people will eventually stop caring about the security risk of features like this. Those AI girlfriends some people dream about will have access to so much private information. Give this thing a voice and you can market it as a companion who learns the things you like and can talk with you about the things you are reading. Hackers might be able to see literally everything you’ve done on the computer for the last few years, but you’ll get to feel like Iron Man with your own personal Jarvis.
It can still be turned on or off, they are just saying it wasn’t supposed to be on that particular screen.
My guess is that it was there as a temporary way to turn it on and off during development before they had a page in settings.
By the comments I’ve seen, it seems like no one read their previous announcement where they said they were delaying the feature while they continued work on it. We already knew they were still going to ship it.
Just having it disabled by default is a massive improvement. It’s crazy that they initially considered releasing it with no encryption and it on by default.
The judge’s argument is that Tesla, which he owns stock in, isn’t a party in the suit against Media Matters, just X. It’s a pretty stupid argument, but he wouldn’t be able to hurt Media Matters if he recused himself.
This is the judge who ruled that Google has a monopoly and abused it. If Google is paying them, they didn’t pay enough.
It’s just nearly $600. Practically free.
DJI and an independent source both told us
They did change one thing. You used to be able to get electricity at wholesale prices from certain providers. When the rates went crazy during the 2021 storm and people’s crazy bills for turning on the lamp blew up on the news, they shut down that option.
These rate surges do hurt customers, but now it’s in the form of rate increases when their contract expires.
I don’t think you’ll find a color laser printer that size. They use pretty large drums to hold the toner. It’d be hard to even find a mono laser printer in that size.
It’s not mentioned in the filing, so we can only speculate.
…on March 18, 2024, Nokia Technologies sent us a letter indicating they believed that Reddit infringes certain of their patents. We will evaluate their claims.
That’s all we’ve got to go on.
It basically is a tweet. It’s a quick post, which is designed for The Verge writers to write a quick thought or link to a story using a website they control instead of posting it on Elon’s website.
You don’t need to take it anywhere. The car will download it using its own antenna and then prompt you to schedule the update the next time you get in the car.
Were you using the phone app or the card? They don’t have a walkaway sensor. They lock automatically if the phone you have registered as the key goes far away from the car, so if you are using the card you have to do it manually.
That’s basically CES in a nutshell. Nearly everything shown off won’t be useful for years.
The headline seems to be targeted at dedicated Verge readers who know that AI is the current big buzzword at CES, they are likely a bit tired of it, and are interested in something that’s not AI.
The article is about how new products are getting support for Wifi 7, so probably none of your current devices.
They switched from letters for Wifi 6, so it’s been like 4 years now.
I’ve always felt like people were overblowing the pocket lint thing, since I’ve never had it happen to me. Just realized that it’s because my pockets are too small, so the only pocket I can use is my back pocket with the port sticking out.
