Horses are a pass time for me so they are more free time partners. I may get around to riding again in the future. Though right now I am still very busy sorting out a lot of horse related things since I got them home this year so I didn't really get to do too much else yet.

My favourite is probably warm but not crazy hot, slight breeze and just cloudy enough so that the sun isn't burning you to a crisp. Makes for a nice time to relax or work outside. Also means that the horses are happy and don't need to drink tons of water.

Right. AI music? Hopefully not, it is likely going to lead to generic slop that may infringe on other artists copyright. AI Podcasts? OH GOD NO! factual news isn't working with AI and you guys think that opinions with AI is a good idea? Are you crazy?

Now music recommendations? That might just work given that algorithms are already doing a decent job at presenting new ( to the particular user, not by actual age) music that the user may enjoy. The question really is if that is actually better than what we already have. And there is only one way to find out, which is by testing it and then being honest about it.

The hottest year on record... So far.

"beset on all sides, with idiots"

Probably 5 minutes or so. 10 if I include the time spent driving there. Usually it's quiet enough that it's not waiting in line but rather waiting to have everything sorted out.

Come on... Shitty safety measures have never, ever, in the history of mankind led to catastrophic events with a lasting fallout. -some government that collapsed

After all after some point safety is just pure waste of money. -some dead CEO

It doesn't take enshittification for something real bad to happen. All it takes is time. Add the mentioned enshittification and corner cutting and we know for sure what will happen...

Or how the saying in EvE online goes : it's not a question on if your ship gets blown up but a question of when it gets blown up.

"prison warden advocates for locking everyone up for their own safety"

The network providers know full well that the market is saturated and that they have to make a better offer if they want to gain market share. The only thing device lock in does is improve their bottom line since they can force you into a shitty contract for longer. It has NO benefit for the consumer whatsoever.

Cool. But I can't help the fact that it feels like a potential security risk to me. It is not unknown just how low they can stoop to get their way so I would expect that to be no different there.

Now that's one shit experiment to figure something specific out.

Why not both?

I do give a shit, and at this point I want to see that platform taken down for good. Because otherwise it's a platform for nefarious shit and abuse. And no one needs that. Especially not the gullible.
