Now I'm wondering what the minimum amount of water required to sustain the current levels of life on earth.

Not defending this article, but companies & big tech are generalizing the crap out of AI right now, and forcing it into everything.

They could have (and definitely should've) promoted the strengths and weaknesses of their models, specifically regarding what it can and can't do. But they don't. They get more money when their shareholders & customers think it's the next best thing for everything.

I'm assuming now that the Post Office is under criminal investigation for fraud, the mutual assistance act between UK and Australia might be used to compel her instead? Especially considering Vennels pointed the blame at her.

Assuming, of course, that the investigators deem her an important cog in the scandal too.

When you become the sole reason for global warming.

That suggests his recent actions haven't been delusional?

No more 12345: devices with weak passwords to be banned in UK ( www.theguardian.com )

Makers of phones, TVs and smart doorbells legally required to protect devices against access by cybercriminalsTech that comes with weak passwords such as “admin” or “12345” will be banned in the UK under new laws dictating that all smart devices must meet minimum security standards.Measures to protect consumers from...

The article reads as though it's the factory-set password which they're making more complex, and ensuring any user set credentials meet a minimum complexity.

The box was clearly designed for a larger egg. The fact they made the image the same size doesn't neglect the fact that shrinkflation has occurred.

The only reason the box size hasn't changed is to fool buyers on the potential size of the egg. If it was box was correctly sized, most people would have selected a different egg.

That's assuming (a lot) about the 30 year old knowing more about "what women want" compared to their 16 year old self.

When I was a kid I always assumed there would be a point in life where I'd feel like an adult. You don't, you just get ground into the mould with responsibilities & stress!

The only difference between me aged 30 & 16 is grey hairs & white knuckles. I know jack shit about "what women want", other than "don't be a dickhead".

"The number of school shootings is too damn high. How can we prevent this?"

"Why don't we put A WEAPON IN EVERY CLASSROOM and make the teachers responsible for preventing them!"

"Perfect! Nothing could go wrong with this plan!"

The thought process fucking baffles me...

Wonder if Trump's public deflection could be admissible as consciousness of guilt?

Jan 6 investigations are clearly pushing the right buttons, he's having a tantrum again.

Didn't you hear? The future is the cloud!

Why host stuff locally when you can host it on someone else's computer, and have fun, exciting, and completely foreseeable failures like this...

The internet is now just AWS, Azure, GCP and Cloudflare.

NocturnalEngineer ,

I don't know... In America they're currently rolling back rights for women, inserted religion into supreme court decisions, and are seriously debating a second term of Trump.

None of that makes any fucking sense. If it requires elaborate mental hoops, they'll find it.

It's such a stupid name! Everytime it's mentioned, it has to be prepend or suffixed with something so people actually understand the "X" context.

And more importantly - If you visit x.com, it redirects to twitter.com! So what's the fucking point of the rebrand?

Knights among toner cartridges ( infosec.pub )

(Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse....

Cross-contamination is always a risk in shared factories, hence why "May contain" needs to exist - they're listing known allergens the factory is handling. The vegan / vegetarian labelling supports a dietary choice rather than allergy advise.

As the article highlights, "free-from" labelling has more stringent controls and requirements to eliminate cross-contamination. It's the "free-from" products labels people should be seeking if they require it to be allergen-free.

What happened in 1980s to start this trend?

If it wasn't tanked before (which should have been), highly doubt this would do it.

That would make him a martyr for his cult following, only escalating matters.

You need him to rot in jail instead. He'll have his following, but they'll start to get bored after a couple of years.

“Absolutely ridiculous! I fully disagree with both verdicts, and will be appealing this whole Biden Directed Witch Hunt focused on me and the Republican Party,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Our Legal System is out of control, and being used as a Political Weapon.”

Says the man who's making this political...

This had nothing to do with Biden or the Republican Party... He's been tried & found guilty of defaming E. Jean Carroll.

Much like naming a company "X"

I'm surprised there hasn't been a proactive step to improving electrical safety in North America. As an onlooker, whose done zero research apart from watching YT videos, the regulations seem to be vague/relaxed.
