Zoom CEO Wants an AI Avatar to Do Your Job While You’re at the Beach
He's the one who ordered all the zoom employees to RTO right? Are we supposed to expect him to let people go to the beach?

They still mad that they didn't change their hurricane report when Trump redrew it with a Sharpie.

Don't disagree, problem is they get 81 years of video uploaded per day.
At 30,000 hours of video per hour, I'll let you do the math about how many living wage employees would be needed to be trained and dedicated to watching those videos to manually review them.
I promise that even with Google money, they couldn't pay them all.
Exponential scaling works that way. It sucks, but automation is the only way to pull it off.

Samsung is sunsetting Tizen and fully ending support for the smartwatch OS

Garmin watches are semi-smart and have great sensors. My Epix 2 Sapphire runs for 11 days on a charge as well.
Tried a Pixel, returned it for refund. Don't use iPhone or Samsung phone so their bespoke software wouldn't work for me.

There are repos on GitHub that pull the videos and metadata, not sure about posting to Peerhub, though if that's possible to post via an api you could probably script it easily enough. Likely a risk of other "issues" doing so, but I'm sure some datahoarders could chime in.

Totally agree, and still chuckle at the fact that it's an AI summary of a video about how artists are leaving a platform due to AI.

Google might keep your Pixel during a repair if you're caught using non-OEM parts
Reply in thread
Came here to say this. Companies send refurbished devices out, they usually make it really clear that you should wipe your device and not expect to get data back exactly because once they receive the device and verify its condition within reason, they send a replacement. Nintendo, Apple, Pixel, Samsung have all done it to me.
Pixel is doing this because they can't send someone else a phone with a non-oem part. If they do in the US they take liability if it's a cheap Alibaba knockoff that does something stupid like make the battery explode. As screwed up as the US laws are, it's difficult to fault them for CYA.
Bottom line is, if the phone has a non-oem part they can't vouch for it, so they need to put your phone in the queue to get fixed is how it reads to me.

"Select a size" when it's just standard paper towel roll. Literally the same way it's always been.

That's not useful for me when I want a 6.35mm size though. We need more granularity!
