Hmmmm seems suspicious when the “healer” rolls up to a fight dressed in FULL PLATE ARMOR with a mace the size of your head, and a shield blessed with the righteous wrath of the Gods themselves, idk bros maybe this healer isn’t just for healing lol

Apple has been quiet about ChatGPT. Now Tim Cook says its hefty $22.6 billion research spend is down to generative AI.
Well, yeah, everyone else is, too. They’re not gonna let Siri become any more woefully outmatched than it already is, so it’s either adapt or die. Microsoft killed off Cortana recently in favor of their AI program.
This is just self-maintenance, basically.

How much you wanna bet their parents say the same type of “this generation” things to them?

The irony of this article being able to quote those comments for us, the humble readers, while the fucking movie studios can't do the same in a court of law is just... so delicious.

“In years past, her mother would have led their fleet across the plains, seeking out the safe places to drink, locations which are passed through generational knowledge from parent to child. Now, her time has come to set out to begin a fleet of her very own.”

What's something you'd change in men's fashion, given the chance?
I have been saying for years there should be a dress equivalent for men; one item, complete outfit, just accessorize according to your style.
Instead we got romp-hims….

I was suspicious as soon as I saw it runs on Chromium. I can safely assure you, Google is not focusing on privacy features there.

I am absolutely terrible at remembering people’s names, even mere seconds after meeting them and introducing ourselves
But I most certainly remember their dog’s name and will refer to them as “dog-name’s human.”

Anyone who has worked in retail will tell you this is absolutely, concretely, and vehemently something corporate would expect their employees to actually say to customers, so don't go giving them any ideas...

Apple considered switching to DuckDuckGo from Google for Safari - Bloomberg News

This argument always cracks me up. I have been able to buy cheap lightning cables effectively since they started making lightning cables lol. It’s not like Apple somehow locks the phone from charging, physics is still a real thing and electricity can still flow through them, even without the MFi aspects.
If you wanna hate Apple for being a massively bloated and money-hungry corporate nightmare, that’s fine, I’m with it, but do we really all think they made it to $3 trillion valuation on… fucking cables??? 😂

Correct! For me, the closed source “walled garden” approach is the most frustrating.
But, dude, dude, dude… remember the 30-pin transition debacle? I’m having bad flashbacks lol

Ok, so you listed basically all of their business strategies, which is exactly my point. It’s not a business built SOLELY on proprietary ports and cables, yet that aspect is what gets the most attention and criticism.

Per their wiki article, “Chromium is a free and open-source web browser project, mainly developed and maintained by Google.” Source, i suppose
I know they’re different. I know it’s FOSS. I also know I do not believe Google is being altruistic and I do not have the expertise nor time to audit the code myself. I am not the subject matter expert here, but I know I’ve seen what Google can do and that certainly biases my opinion. I don’t believe any corporation that large is genuinely concerned about anything but capital acquisition.

I feel like we are all of the same opinions on this but somehow missing each other lol. Very obviously, Google has had a massive influence on technology and the internet as a whole. As you stated, there have been plenty of abuses of that power in the past, most commonly noted with privacy concerns and data collection. Hence, how I arrived at my original position with regards to Brave as a browser.
