I think it’s a legal issue, honestly. When printers first came out there was a fear that people would just print money and other illegal things, so printer firmware had to print out security identifiers on everything in yellow ink so it can be traceable. That’s also why yellow ink always goes out first, and why it complains about yellow ink when trying to only print black and white.

If that’s law, then it could be illegal to use firmware that does not have these features, and anyone making fimware that ‘just prints’ may be held liable.

Thus is all just an educated guess though, but seems plausible.

So… Is guy like- lowercase man?

I had an iPad tell me I didn’t have permission to delete a photo that I took with the iPad. Somehow I didn’t own the picture I took of my own dog.

Tastes better. Probiotic, so can be healthier. Risk is very low of contamination, low enough that the mandate for pasteurized milk was kinda overblown, but technically safer.

I find the posturing the funniest. Conservatives trying to act tough by drinking raw milk is hilariously tame. It’s like being proud of not wearing sun screen when mowing the lawn. Like, that’s arguably fine either way, but sunscreen is a little safer but…why would you brag about that?

Imagine he’s playing Eurotruck simulator.

“Ai” is largely a gimmick. It can be an impressive gimmick at times, but the failure rate and misses are too common to really trust. I’m an enthusiast, so I have been dabbling a lot with what it can do, and theoretically there are some really cool applications - but we’re not there yet. I’ve got Gemini on my phone, and yeah… I can talk to it about things, but like… Why? The most useful thing I’ve done with it so far is ask it specific game information like, “hey, I’m in x level and I see a chest. I can’t see a way to get it right now, is it something I can come back and get later? Or do I have to figure it out now?”. And it can answer that.

Saves me from having to look up an ad riddled guide, but that’s not a killer feature. Integration with aps could be huge, where it can actually do whatever task for you, or automate something tedious, but that’s still not super common. I’d rather personally and directly control anything vaguely important.

It’s really a solution looking for a problem.

My guess is the DCIM mount is for things like photo kiosks designed to plug any photo device in to print pictures. It would kinda suck to have a smartphone that couldn’t talk to such a system, but a modern one could easily get around that now, and digital cameras are far less prevalent.

As for mounting it as mass storage, usually there is a notification you tap into that gives you options. Most of the time it defaults to charge only and you have to opt in to full storage access to prevent plugging in to some random “charging station” and have it copy data to or from your phone.

Lol AI generated teeth

That’s why all the AI are trained on six fingered people- it’s Inigo still looking for his father’s killer. It’s like some kinda terminator spinoff.

This is a fantastic opportunity to allow parents to explain financial insolvency to their autistic child grieving the loss of their robot companion.

It’s really telling how their shiny new games are so lacking in substance that they are afraid of retro games. ‘Surely it can’t be that out generic mmofps crafting shooter collectathon battle Royale clone game is bad. It must be that damn Tetris game stealing all our sales!’

Ugh, I hate those missions.

Same. I know my red flags, you don’t. If I were a used car I’d strongly recommend against getting it.

Nobody said Firewatch yet?

I’ll also add To The Moon as well. I could list more, but almost any game where narrative is the main focus and gameplay is secondary.

Yes, it absolutely will. That’s why I fragrance the pandas. Just a little here and there so that some Howard will need to sort through it. The lime really comes through clearly.

Or you get even more nuanced and say unregulated free market is best only on the frontier of emerging new market sectors, and that areas we depend on should be heavily regulated, socialized, and run at cost for the public for free supported by tax dollars.

Have different systems for different things depending on which works best for what.

I don’t think bite marks last like that that long. My guess is the OP is the biter and faker.

Not to mention the weight. Those premium vehicles with long range stats are very heavy. That’s what makes them so terrifying to me.

I was never really social to begin with, so I just resumed being my normal introverted self.

I have to do similar things when it comes to ‘raytracing’. It meant one thing, and then a company comes along and calls something sorta similar the same thing, then everyone has these ideas of what it should be vs. what it actually is doing. Then later, a better version comes out that nearly matches the original term, but there’s already a negative hype because it launched half baked and misnamed. Now they have to name the original thing something new new to market it because they destroyed the original name with a bad label and half baked product.
