Not sure, but mainstream media is also reporting it: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/13/apple-will-integrate-alibabas-ai-into-iphones-in-china-chairman-joe-tsai-says.html

For headline readers: for iPhones sold in China.

Learning this and seeing people still blaming Muslims for Trump’s victory makes me angry enough to spit.

You lack imagination. Or maybe you’re understandably having an anxiety attack about what’s going on. Either way, we don’t have to crab bucket about it.

The internet version of “the intelligence of the dumbest humans and the smartest bears overlaps significantly” trash can problem?

I’m immensely relieved he was actually defrocked and not just given a slap on the wrist.

I sense a right wing grift career in his future.

As long as it’s completely legal for American companies to sell the data that’s allegedly so sensitive to anyone they please, the law does nothing except allow the president to target apps selectively. If it’s the propagandizing via the algorithm that’s such a huge concern, that’s still completely legal too.

Democrats shutting down TikTok over a do nothing bill is probably the stupidest shit they could have done with Biden’s last year in office.

On one hand, yeah, on the other hand Biden literally signed the law banning it. If Democrats didn’t want Tik Tok being banned to be associated with them and to give Republicans an easy, obvious win by unbanning a wildly popular app, then they could have just… not done that. This was just completely an unforced error on the part of the Democrats.

Can confirm Watch Duty is the shit. They’re how I figured out the evacuation alerts (PLURAL) we got were errors.

According to OP’s previous comments the dev of this has spent 600k of their own money on this. If that claim is legitimate then feel free to draw your own conclusions about why someone with 600k to burn would spend it on an NFT crypto reddit, but without images.

Project Zomboid just released version 42 beta, so all PZ all the time for me. I’m just living the farming life and getting into the new crafting system in between smacking zombies. Very satisfying.

If you needed a trans person to come tell you this is not okay: hi! Here I am! Don’t do this. All it does is advertise that you view using someone’s correct name as a privilege that can be revoked for bad behavior.

Although Teixeira asked Discord members not to share the documents, an investigative journalism group, Bellingcat, found that Teixeira’s friends spread the documents widely, first to other Discord servers, then to Telegram, 4Chan, and Twitter (now called X).

What’s the saying? Three can keep a secret if two of them are dead?

At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch-22 over its whole history.

Heller responds, “Yes, but I have something he will never have — enough.”

I think the decades of family and social pressure telling me that my appearance defined my self worth which I experienced when I was raised as a girl is the reason I wear a hat to cover my balding head, thanks for asking!

Friend, I am trans, I could reproduce if I wanted to with a dude (I absolutely do not want to). I’m also already married to a gay man, so my rainbow hat is not to pick people up, it’s to cover up my balding head. :p

I mean, are straight people who are normal about it clamoring for the title to begin with? This seems like a problem invented basically entirely by the whiners. You could just as easily say it affects gay people who want an ironic title, or straight trans people, but for obvious reasons the whiners don’t really care about that.

All that said I have no idea what the price tag means in terms of gameplay time to acquire it. If it’s unachievable without 10 hours of grinding or something that’s a little mean, but not enough that I really care.

(Edit: accidentally a word)

It’s okay to take context into account and not just look at it as a math problem. Targeting a minority isn’t the same as doing it to people who make up 90% of society but are whiny.

Have the numbers for that come in yet?

Plenty of times someone’s sexuality is held above someone’s head, quite literally in the case of this casual fishing game where I feel it doesn’t even slightly belong

As a gay dude with a rainbow hat IRL this made me lol. I’m not wearing it to pick people up, I’m wearing it because I’m not ashamed of who I am. It’s not any different from wearing a wedding ring, couples shirts, or any of the million other displays of heterosexuality that you see and don’t think anything about.

PS: even if you are gay, internalized homophobia is a thing. Feeling that it’s super inappropriate to mention that you’re gay unless you want to fuck someone falls under that.

Oh, I don’t even mean from lost sales, I mean because this service is fundamentally going to cost more than the “theft” (lol) it’s allegedly stopping. If any one employee (or even a team) is doing this at scale and a business needs AI tracking customers to pick up on it, there is something drastically wrong.

This service is basically pure AI hype. It’s not doing anything a minimally engaged manager couldn’t already do with the salary you’re having to pay them anyway. Except the AI is also doing it worse and at a higher cost. Yay!
