What athletic competition would not be a game if all sports are games? I mean, honestly, what is the difference you see between "sport" and "athletic competition"?

You can extend or contract "game" as much as you want, but I can't think of a definition of game that would encompass all sports but not all athletic competitions (if there really is a difference).

This result has probably been priced in since it hit the current floor in March. The bump after the report is likely because there were no bombshells in it. They're saying they're still on track for all the vaporware that the valuation is based on. It will drop again when they're inevitably delayed and it becomes clear the robots and AI taxis aren't revolutionary but just exactly what other companies already beat them to.

I had scanned through it, and it looked like the exact same stuff that Google and Microsoft say. Paraphrasing: "we value your privacy" "we're de-identifying your data" "the processing occurs on-device"...

Apple probably is better on privacy than other big tech corpos, but it's a race to the bottom, and they're definitely participating in the race.

Apple is the best on privacy though right?

That link is just awful. Very difficult to tell where events are or how big they will be.

It's definitely highly edited. It probably isn't AI, but I wouldn't be surprised if the editing was heavily AI assisted. I found the original source on reddit itookapicture 1 year ago, which isn't 100% evidence, but AI was way worse then and it doesn't have any of the telltale AI signs.

back during covid

Few people mean this literally. We all know covid is still around and will be quite possibly forever. What it means, depending on context is "during covid lockdowns" or "during covid restrictions" or really just 2020.

It's not a pandemic anymore, it's endemic now. Get both your shots every year now. Covid isn't the new flu, it's flu's new buddy.

In California (see the plates on the car) there is almost nowhere you can get a sunrise over the ocean without seeing land on the other side across the bay or whatever. There are a couple spots where if the sun was as far south as it gets in winter then you might be able to get a shot with no land across the water. But this is almost surely not one of those.

Same with Deftones.

I see drake: I downvote. Simple as.

The failing was decades and centuries ago that led to this. Power has been consolidating in the presidency since the constitution was signed as the legislature and courts are happy to give more and more of their power over to the executive.

We've only been protected by being lucky having presidents and their staff with genuine care for the intent of the constitution.

This was only a matter of time. It wasn't our fault. This is America.

Thanks for braving the cesspool. It's like those heros who bring back the gold flakes from shit pile that is 4chan.

Why would an optional feature be a deal breaker?

It also seems like an issue that could be easily solved by whitelisting.

The man wants to make deals, right, so make a deal. (warning I'm an American and know just enough about Canadian government to be dangerous)

"Join" the United States of America under these conditions:

• Mexico can join too if they want
• Each Province or State of joining countries becomes a State
• The Constitutions of all countries apply only to the States it previously applied to while a new Constitution is written
• The rules of the Constitutional Convention must be agreed to by both a majority of the joining States and 2/3 of all States

Please make this deal. Our governments are all too old to work great in this age but maybe we can forge a new design fit for the 2000s if we erase most of it and start fresh.

I think what is happening is that Ukraine believes that signing the deal will result in a range of outcomes from neutral to positive, depending how and when the US renegs on their side of it. But without the deal the outcomes range from neutral to very negative, so making the deal is the clear right move even if you believe it won't do anything.

It sounds funny but it actually is more real than you might think

In Southern California there's a bunch of toll roads for the rich people in Orange County they call The Toll Roads.

The protests didn't make nearly any national news. Hope the next ones go better.

Google TV is the easiest to get rid of ads on. I have a Sony and a Hisense both no ads.

Look up and use the Projectivy Launcher.

You'll also want to sideload an app that forces the default launcher to Projectivy (can't recall the name) because they don't allow changing it through the stock OS. Projectivy tries to use accessibility settings to take over on its own, but it breaks some other features so I don't use them.
