I hate it too.. the old assistant is pretty smart, obviously it has some language processing, but not "AI", but it's very fast for things like "Set alarm for ... ", "Remind me at X about Y", "Add calendar event on x at y about z", or "Navigate home".

And now if I want to use Gemini on my phone I have to replace Assistant. Nah, I'll keep Assistant thanks, and just have a shortcut to load the Gemini in the browser.

Except the browser experience is so fucking buggy, constant reloads needed..


On the flip side you've either been propagandized to find the slaughter of civilians acceptable ("they were warned!", "they sympathize anyway", etc, etc) or you're doing the propagandizing yourself. Maybe towards yourself, so that you can continue to believe that your defense of said genocide is the right thing.

Hooray for nanny-enabled computing being forced on us!


How lovely, a file read API that lies to you...


God, I hate that OSes have nannies that are getting more and more involved, and look at how many HNers like you are saying that it's a great idea...

What's next, "I can't let you view this content, it has been deemed too radical "?


The use of "a" instead of "the" pilot suggests more than 1 personnel on the plane, considering F15's carry 2 people (unless it's some magical F15 I haven't heard of), it means there's still 1 guy missing out there.

Or he (I assume) could also have been found dead, and is not being mentioned before his family is notified of the sacrifice Donald Trump made of his life.


F-15 A and C are single seaters. C is actually the most common variant the USAF has.

The one shot down was an E though so two people.


Is this AI slop? In any case I hate writing that is "subject predicate object" that makes the whole article feel as obnoxious like a Twitter thread.

Write better sentences, please!


The astronaut's quote needs to be a billboard ad.. "I also see I have 2 instances of Outlook, and neither of those are working".


One is hacked by a Russian hacker group based in St. Petersburg, the other is hacked by a Chinese hacker group, and the third instance was actually BackOrifice but it couldn't get enough resources to run because of the other two.


Your best hope is a fourth group hacks in (probably best Korea) and fixes one of the other two.


A bad case of Three Stooges syndrome.

Isn't it capitalism? Adobe fucks you, Microsoft will "upgrade" your Office^W Copilot 365 license to 25-seats(1) if you don't notice, Tesla promises self-driving but drives you into the back of the trucks (what, you didn't read the disclaimer?), even the "leader of the free world" is now a crypto-huckster selling you bibles with his name on it... and is killing civilians in the Middle East and making profit by saying "Oh I'll stop soon!".

Not capitalism in the way many of us capitalists think it should be practiced. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Theory_of_Moral_Sentiments


Isn't this the same no true scotsman argument as "true communism, as Marx envisioned, has never been put to practice"?


Absolutely.


The beauty of capitalism is that you can just not use Adobe, Microsoft or drive Tesla. Blaming Trump on capitalism is also quite a stretch.


So the beauty of capitalism is billion dollar companies are free to try to scam you, because you're also free to avoid them?

Maybe I should just stand on the street and be a 3-card-monty...


at least the 3-card Monty guy is dealing with you one on one. These companies hire lobbyist to make the illegal, immoral sh*t legal. Easy to keep winning the game when you write the rules.


Eliminating capitalism will not eliminate people trying to scam you or take advantage of you.


It has the benefit that I now spend less time reading random articles, you read one sentence, feel it's AI and just skim through it.

Mamy Instagram videos now have creator-added LLM description of what's happening in the video and some bullshit ending like "This video shows why it's important to always remain vigilant when driving".. fuxxckkk off with the faux philosophy!
