I’m sure that’d work on some humans too.

Even the first version of ChatGPT passed turing tests.

It takes surprisingly little for an LLM to make natural language responses that are indistinguishable from a human. Especially when factual accuracy was never part of it.

I once again have failed to not feed the troll, goddamit.

I wish you luck on your future trolling endeavours.

The dev time of blocking these features in the EU will be FAR higher than allowing apps to use the already existing and well implemented apis.

They simply need to polish up some internal api docs for making public and stop saying no to apps implementing these features on the app store.

The apis are already there and accessible(though undocumented), your app just isn’t allowed to be on the app store if you use it.

It would cost them next to nothing in dev time. They’re purely doing this to protect their own monopolistic interests. Which I guess yeah is a good business decision, one that should be illegal and punished.

You clearly don’t understand why apple did this, and what the EU is trying to require here.

EU is requiring that third party apps have access to the same things as first party apps, that is all. If the apple watch app can sync WiFi network passwords to your watch, a third party app must also be allowed to do the same thing. Like say the Garmin app syncing this info to a Garmin watch.

Apples solution to this is to be utter cunts and remove features from first party apps just to be “compliant” and then go and try and turn the population against the regulators.

If you hit it right with shorts that’s not that weird, shorts are huge for driving up subscriber numbers.

Considering the views of some of that channels shorts, it’s probably it.

People are extremely opinionated on scented candles it seems.

Yankee candle rating dropped sharply (or at least statistically significant) during covid with reviews of them being negative because they had little to no smell.

Loss of smell being a covid symptom.

Edit: oh and yeah it would go up and down based on larger outbreaks. So it followed the early waves of mass outbreaks basically 1:1

The artist posts a bunch of illustrations of this character wearing different headphones, the title of each post being the model of headphones.

I guess they just like headphones.

Personally I don’t care which state actor it is, I don’t want any of them to have easy access to my data.

If they want it, they should work for it.

All your data from this device being stored on servers in China that are accessible to the Chinese government isn’t a relevant concern?

Can confirm, I live in the cheapest region of these (NO4, Northern Norway) and my prices were on average 6x what is on here due to fixed per kWh fees.

Neighbours cat meowed at my window, just as annoying as a mosquito if not more. Clearly that’s a justified kill then.

Hey, maybe next year at the 100 year anniversary of the 5 day work week it might finally click.

It’s not cloud free and requires online activation with the Tuya app. (I assume based on other Tuya WiFi devices)

Yup, it’s a rebranded Tuya device.

It’s a rebranded Tuya device, which can actually be used in a local only mode.

I wouldn’t trust connecting it to the Tuya online services though that is for certain.

It’s a rebranded Tuya device, and they don’t sell your data to any law enforcement or insurance.

They do however comply with Chinese laws and all your data is readily available for the Chinese government.

It’s a rebranded Tuya doorbell. So there aren’t any subscriptions, though you will be giving them all your data.
