I called my local HVAC company recently. They switched to an AI operator. All I wanted was to schedule someone to come out and look at my system. It could not schedule an appointment. Like if you can't perform the simplest of tasks, what are you even doing? Other than acting obnoxiously excited to receive a phone call?

Those are the wrong integrity checks

Ah they're learning from the "unlimited" mobile carriers.

"Unlimited" until you meet your limit, then throttled.

I wouldn't trust anything that came out of an AI without confirming it with someone with a degree.

That's because you care. Most of these companies don't. I think they've made that abundantly clear. But they are learning quickly.

You can load the script into violentmonkey (minus the last line because it kept refreshing the page) and it's applied automatically that way. You can also submit it to GreasyFork to make it searchable.

Personally I find chat models that don't provide sources to be completely useless, that's why I use Perplexity (occasionally).

I don't know why these companies think they can talk their way out of this. No one is buying your BS. Just STFU.

Factually wrong.

It's not. And you didn't even bother to dispute it.

Eg. if the fire occurs from a runway combustion in the chamber and the engine locks up starving the combustion chamber from oxygen.

😂🤣😂🤣 what? There's supposed to be fire in the combustion chamber. If it doesn't leave there, it's not "a fire". If it does leave there, the engine locking up does nothing.

More things between you and the fire = more protection overall... period.

If there's something between you and the fire then there's not a threat to life.

"Brother" putting words in people's mouth is literally definition of bad faith.

Good thing no one did that?

I was not speaking for terms of "life".

I mean that's pretty clearly the topic at hand, and the most important one.

Lithium fires cause immensely more damage than ICE fires do.

Damage to what? There ain't gonna be anything left of the car either way.

think of a benign situation like a car catch fire under a bridge

That's an extremely obscure and cherry-picked scenario to make your point.

I will have more protection by sheer thermal mass in between me and the firey bit

Thermal mass is not relevant. You don't die from metal contact, you die from smoke inhalation.

The fact that they happen less often doesn't fix the fact that it ends up being a wash all around.

It absolutely is not, and the mere insinuation otherwise leads me to believe you're just being disingenuous.

Brother if your life is dependent on someone coming to put out the fire, you're not gonna make it.

Every study ever done on the subject has concluded that vehicle fires happen far less in electric vehicles than ICE ones. If you want to talk about responsibility we would ban them all.

No problem 👍

It was updated fairly recently to include remote shares. There's nothing to set up.

Anything is possible with Linux if you pfaff around long enough. But I think you'll need a controller with USB receiver, you can't do it directly with Bluetooth.

Consoles have a whole other processor that looks for inputs like that while the main processor remains off. Those don't make much sense for PCs.

Do it.

It only matters in the sense that you're allowed to not purchase online games.

Virtually every game in existence has some sort of online element. But what you seem to be unable to grasp is that many of them have single player modes that don't require any internet connection.

It's as simple has having a server that checks the version of the game installed before allowing access to online services.

It doesn't matter if you prefer offline or not or that you CAN play solo, it is online coop.

Of course it does?

Hence it begs the question whether it's the platform's fault per se.

There is no question. GOG is proof that you can do it. Therefore if others don't do it, it's their fault.

Once again, all of this is beside the point. The point is that those games are effectively gone.

It's literally built on bittorrent protocols

literally webtorrents*

it's already very well established that you can be held responsible for seeding copyright infringing material

Right, because you're hosting it and distributing it. PeerTube is just like a window to non-local content (except for the local content, obvi).

It confirms virtually all previous testing.

No one said anything about stock.

They have so much money because they're full of shit? Doesn't make much sense.
