Absolutely. Nowadays you could afford an external hard drive to store such a small amount of videos. Plus, it gives you the benefit of having fewer eyes on your data. The notion of storing data on the cloud turns me off of having certain indoor cameras.

MARS isn't doing a good job of proving you wrong.

According to Invenda’s website, the Smart Vending Machines can detect the presence of a person, their estimated age and gender.

I'm confident I don't need a vending machine to know any of that.

Technology does way more than what some consumers want without adding enough value. Ring doorbell just grossly increased their ring protect plan cost and I'm starting to wonder:

"Why are we paying monthly subscriptions for them to just store two months of snapshots with a few videos?"

Did you read my comment?

Yeah

Just to be clear what Elon musk announced was not an advancement in the space of BIC. He is touting a pre-existing technology as an advancement.

Yeah. He said they were controlling a mouse. it's an advancement for his team, not for BCIs in general. I saw the video. He didn't even sound that excited about it.

Should be very concerned about Elon's role in [this] space.

This is the part I agree with, but it's not where the criticism and jokes in this thread were directed even though he's the biggest reason why people don't like Neuralink.

The end goal isn't just to create a brain-controlled mouse. When I'm talking about criticizing advancements because of what they can currently do this is part of my problem. Technology in this vein could be the precursor to mechanically regaining the ability to use your own limbs. People equate justifiably disliking Elon and specific issues with Neuralink to deriding technology in general.

The old stuff I saw around twenty years ago that was actually good was pretty invasive. I think I saw research on Duke doing this with monkeys around 2004 or so. Also I didn't say it was revolutionary, I'm rejecting the belittling of any advances in technology just because I have the ability to click a mouse with my fully able body.

Yeah, but you're probably not a quadriplegic or have ALS.

It's weird how he starts talking about the Terminator movie and samurais at the end of his post. Bizarre guy.

Google Translated:

Just never again tell your soldiers before a battle, “You won’t change a thing!” tell them what John Connor asked Kyle Reese to tell his mother - “There is no destiny except the one we create for ourselves.” That being said, let's personally say thank you to Jim Cameron for this wonderful film, right here in Hollywood. If I manage to “change something,” give me an example to the soldiers.

In the samurai code “Bushido,” which was written down on paper at the moment when the samurai began to forget it, it is written, among other things:

Often revenge consists of simply breaking into the enemy’s house and dying.

That looks like a human generated image. If you've played around with text to image generators you'd be hard pressed to find a keyboard that accurate. If I had to guess it's a separate keyboard and monitor. That's why the keyboard doesn't seem to be centered. The hands are in the wrong place probably because they're simply placed further to the right than a normal typist would be.

For real, try to generate images with a variety of current text to image models and you'll see what I mean.

It Takes Two was really popular. I've only heard good things.

They explicitly say that the image is AI. That doesn't mean the article is. I'm not sure what your comment is implying.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that makes sense. The planet Vulcan was destroyed in that 2009 movie. It exists and changed in Discovery.

OP found this screenshot from a Redditor. I couldn't find the exact source. For all I know, the guy on Reddit wrote this stuff himself.

Who though? Americans don't like it, but that's to be expected.

Lula says we should wait until an autopsy happens, but the Kremlin won't allow independent investigation as per the article.

People who protest in Russia get punished.

The Global South will basically ignore it because it's politically useful or use a tu quoque about Israel.

China really won't care because it's internal.

He probably had money mentally spent too. Once you realize you've won it's not unreasonable to find a lawyer and get some affairs in order while you're anticipating long-term how to save your money. The bait and switch probably messed with his mind.

This is going to be a really weird thing to argue, but I just casually read through a bunch of your comments and they seem like meaningful contributions.

The bots would just move to the new platforms. Nothing is really safe from bad actors.

I consider caps to be hats, yes.

Canada has at least one. America has them. Being able to see someone's hair doesn't really seem like a requirement for police officers. Back in the day, police officers all wore hats in the US anyways.

Allowing religious symbols on police uniforms opens up the gate for people wanting to wear hijabs with their police uniforms.

Sikh cops are allowed to wear turbans and it doesn't harm anyone when they do.
