Honest question: how does hurting consumers even more solve the problem? Is it a deterrent to the original tariffs or something else?

Chill out, I already had enough reasons to not use those sites.

Tesla bought over $2 million worth of lidar sensors from Luminar this year

Awesome. How much more time off to google software engineers get? I guess it’s none.

Does this mean “AI was used as a fancy autocomplete”? Because that’s my number 1 use case for AI like copilot, and if that’s the case, over 25% of my code is written by AI. But let me tell you, it still gets it wrong, repeatedly making the same syntax errors no matter how many times I correct it. It starts to get it right, then later reverts to making the same syntax errors, even making up variable names that violate widely known public APIs.

It’s Big Brother doublespeak. “Ministry of Truth” and all that.

Neal Stephenson has entered the chat.

Isn’t his entire show about manipulating peoples behavior? He seems like a sociopath.

We are not a sentimental age

We don’t want our parent’s china or their ticker-tape parades

We are not a sentimental age

We’re out getting high on fire escapes

We are hooking up with strangers we will never see again

We are not a sentimental age

We are not a sentimental age

…

We are not a sentimental age

On our shoulders is a boulder of a debt we cannot pay

We are not a sentimental age

Diagnosis says I tend to disengage

I’d rather have my privacy, I’d rather have my space

These are just the pills I have to take

We are not a sentimental age

Seriously! What is smart about these things? It’s smart not to buy this bullshit. It’s 1984 doublespeak just like the “open” in “OpenAI”.

The phrase “these days” makes it sound like there’s more to it than this thread. Obviously after this post nobody would want to buy LG, but it sounds like there are other reasons.

Why? What made you go from favorite monitors to “eat shit”?

It says “Smart Monitor” right there in the pic.

Yes. All the time.

“Dear god, are you sure?”
