While I agree, I think this solution is some nonsense. I bought a "TV" and paid for all the hardware and software that went into it, but I essentially have to use it as a monitor with my own hardware to escape the enshittification.

They could both live on musk's mars colony, the first rockets are set to start as early as 2018!

At this point I'm questioning if they really have working nukes, or if some commanders sold them of to ISIS 15 Years go and the warheads are now filled with empty vodka bottles.

Nope. You can run similar models locally that are good and fast enough for most tasks.

Top car will start to loudly beep and light up the dashboard like a christmas tree with SERVICE NOW!!! warnings whenever the windshield wiper fluid is low, seat belt is not fastend or a brake light is out. Has controls for radio and clima hidden 3 levels deep behind a touch screen interface. Comes with an app that will somehow stop working after 5 years when the car is no longer sold, or after you upgrade your phone. Has a subscription that allows you to go faster and use the heated seats you already paid for when you bought it.

Bottom car will run as long it has fuel, dosnt judge you like a fuckin audi would and lists engine oil as "optional" in the manual.

It's one of the most popular social media apps in Russia that is not banned or blocked. I would bet they already have a backdoor for the Russian police and intelligence agency...

Commercial displays are not tvs. Quite often the refresh rate is terrible and you cannot watch action movies on it, because it was designed to show static billboard ads.

You don't need AI for that. All it takes is some standardized markup like schema.org and a discoverable price list page that can be read and understood by everyone.

We already had something similar with RSS, where you subscribe to your favorite blogs and forums, and the RSS reader on your computer would tell you which sites have new posts, so you don't need to scan all of them each day. For some reason people stopped using RSS, and instead published their stuff (or notifications about new posts) on Facebook, twitter etc.

The same system could be adapted for (grocery-) price lists. However the big brands would never do that, because then it would be very easy to discover which products suddenly got more expensive.

The subscription is for the 25gb cloud storage space... Of course a 64gb USB Stick would be cheaper and doesn't rely on an online connection.

Was somewhat active in the travel section, but left since 90% are now visa questions on how to get into the schengen area.

This sounds like it could be made into an rick and Morty episode...

I wouldn't get into crypto, but have you heard about this newfangled thing with the NFTs?

Always has been. Technically the server sees no difference in what a browser does vs what a bot does: Downloading files and submitting requests.

Not a console user, but can you actually still play games from a disc without an sony account and internet connection?

I'm sure the reddit TOS you agreed to during signup says otherwise....

Blocking bots is hard, because with some work they can be made to look like users, down to simulating curved mouse movements from one button to the next if you are really ambitious.

Ah, similar trick works with some viruses. If you set the keyboard layout or timezone to Russian, the ransomware will not encrypt your files.

This would be a bad approach, because you are essentially trying to brute force your way around a roadblock (no supported open data format) the supermarket intentionally designed. It would be easy for them to block your bot with Captchas, rate limits or IP blocking or just sue you.

Eevblog disagrees.

The catch is that the reflected sunlight from a small area on the reflector will be spread over a very large area by the time is reaches earth, so the energy each panel could collect is to small to make economic sense.
