Oh good, I was starting to distrust my French.

Why? We don’t need the service to be popular. That’s the great thing about it being decentralised, it kind of doesn’t matter.

Also we don’t want a bunch of French people on here, speaking their strange heathen lingo.

It’s kind of sad that you’re so terminally online that you think that everyone else must know who the hell this guy is. All I know about him is that he’s some YouTuber I have never watched any of his content nore have I really heard anything about any controversy.

I didn’t know he was a Nazi I just find him annoying.

taken decades before anything even resembling an AI existed.

The picture will almost certainly be taken on a film camera as well, so it’s not even digital

Presumably the price that they’re quoting is for everything to be maxed out then. Seems like a really odd way of doing it.

Why has it got 40Tb of storage? What’s this for

Also mint, and chocolate apparently. And of course chili’s. The only one that seems to actually work on us though is nettles.

No one’s domesticated them.

But they’re off by default so I’m not sure what you’re talking about

I don’t care about AI when it’s doing minor things like this it’s when they’re shoving it down our throats and we don’t want it.

That’s probably why there’s an ice cream truck around me even during the winter. I’d want to confirm first otherwise it would be a rather awkward interaction.

It only seems to be a US only thing. I assume it’s because the military is such a big thing for the US where other countries just see having a military almost as a chore.

The dumb bit of the law is the fact that websites are allowed to put up an annoying banner that says either accept cookies or individually deselect 240 checkboxes.

Oh and the really really dumb cookie law.

I mean technically it’s not the company’s responsibility. If you’ve ordered something and they’ve sent it in a reasonable time frame and it just gets charged extra on entry. It’s not the company putting the price up, it’s your own government, so you don’t really have a recourse.

There’s only one thing businesses hate more than tariffs and that’s uncertainty. They would be happier with the tariffs being definite, than this maybe existing and maybe not existing on a almost daily basis.

Because even if he gets rid of the tariffs, he’ll try this again in a few weeks once he’s forgotten about all of the push back and has randomly decided that Canada is still shipping drugs into the US. Because fentanyl can’t be made in the US, everyone knows that.

How do they define “an item”, because couldn’t a bunch of people get together and order stuff from outside the US and then just have it all delivered in one big box? Are they going to open every box to make sure that there’s only one item in it, how do they know it’s not just one big item?

For example if I order one washing machine then that’s one item but if I order various parts for a washing machine then that’s lots of items, but technically the washing machine already contained those parts that were considered one item

Youtube notifications drives me mad. I will see the video I was when I get around to loading next, I don’t need to be told the nano second they upload

The subscriptions thing is something I have been saying about YouTube for years. People are always complaining that the predictions are terrible but they never have subscriptions.

They are literally not using the app the way it’s supposed to be used and then complaining that it doesn’t work. Well yeah.

I think you just don’t like cats and trying to find a justification for it.
