Wow: after 15 years, YouTube has taken down the original 'Rick Roll' video due to a "licensing issue," likely due to the acquisition of Astley's record lable. The metadata remains, but if you click through it goes to 'video not found': www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4...

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses. Real buttons are sooooooo back baby!

Microsoft's own research confirms something that was already pretty obvious: relying on a text generating machine to come up with answers erodes critical thinking, and is a method favoured by those who never liked doing critical thinking in the first place advait.org/files/lee_20...

10 years back I would be sure …All this was a plot of a bad airport fiction novel… A US President starts pointless trade war against Canada. Canada threatens to retaliate by withholding electricity from the US. US president’s press sec says this is fine because Jesus didn’t have electricity.

It's becoming clear that A.I. is the devil. In a burning world, the energy & water it consumes are unconscionable. The intellectual property theft it depends on is wrong. It is dehumanizing. Its development is fueled by naked greed. It is a giant step backward for humanity & our planet.
