Some are locked into their services through work

Try being a land survey professional without using Google Earth.

I get it, but not everyone can free themselves of using their systems because they are tied professionally

Because you’re not allowed to feel good with any medical treatment.

No.

Changing the zoning of one or a couple of properties singularly I’m not sure is doable and I’m saying that as a surveying associate. I might be wrong; there were parts of cadastral law my junior degree didn’t cover.

But you’re spot on, that makes no difference really to the point you’re making. They’re businesses, not private dwellings any more and should be taxed appropriately.

Hahahaha that’s funny shit

That is awesome. If you still know this friend, please, buy them a coffee on my behalf

Up yours Jensen you ballbag

Certainly will be, this is definitely the last windows I’m running. Cheers.

It was my sons school computer and it’s running education which for win 10 I have been happy with. One son has ditched win 11 and is running Bazzite now. The other is wound back to win 10 I think, but he’ll move

I’m in the process of deciding which distro to move on; I manage my sons NDIS so that’s front and centre; security of federal government records and claims.

That’s what I’m thinking

I bought the win version, because I have a five year old win 10 computer I’m using until win 10 is no longer supported, and I can’t get office for free anymore.

When win 10 is no longer supported, that’s a Linux computer.

Would I be an idiot, if they cancelled support for mine? I guess so. I’m waiting for some edgelord to tell me I am, probably accompanied by y0u sH00d jUsT g0 LinUx n0w

That’s what stopped me from returning

I never liked the AR feature either. I don’t know how many strange looks I got the couple of times I did for research tasks

Now we’re beginning to find out what’s being done with the data we’ve collected.

I see the true American coming out in him.

They will steal everyone’s retirement funds in that country, then they will come for whoever else’s they can get. They’re thieves.

I see plenty of objections, many from people who probably know much more about AI and US law than myself, but if what I interpret is accurate I’m trying to find flaw with it, given what’s confronting us with AI and its management.

I don’t see anywhere where the US government would be buying or bailing anything out, at least not upfront anyway. There’s no doubt to me these companies have stolen much, so they owe the public back for that. There’s no doubt to me those that run these systems aren’t working in the US public’s interest, so the question of whether regulating or offering public protections should happen isn’t hard for me. That of course implies good governance, not what currently exists, which is a problem.

As I said I might be missing a lot, not being American or an AI user, but yeah aside from who is in charge currently I only see benefit here.

Yeah that’s what I read here, acquisition not share purchase.

As someone who has never used AI, another thing that springs to mind; the possibility that under good governance and regulation, AI services might become more trusted and perform better.

I’m trying to find flaw with this proposal, given what’s in front of us with AI, as someone who doesn’t know a lot about using it but sees everyday the problems bad regulation and intention causes with it.

Which reminds me, I need to get back to that. I still have some more stuff to move over.

I’ll still keep it for maps and earth when necessary. I wish there were professional grade replacements for Earth but there isn’t unfortunately.

Yeah good point and I agree with it.

Most blokes couldn’t give a shit. Women on the other hand will effectively have it used against them because they will be judged badly by the same man who’d laugh with a bloke on it.

Edit: fixed some garble

Release away. I have nothing to be embarrassed about there

Yep, the one really in the club didn’t just survive, she’s well looked after.

That said, they’d do away with her too if it became necessary.

Well they are afraid somewhat, otherwise they wouldn’t be threatening us with this and carrying it out.

They’ve made their bed, it doesn’t have to be this way. It ends badly for them which ever way they go.

Precisely. We mightn’t be the ones but in the end they’ll get beaten.

Cool, then we’ll just openly fight you my dude

Like the rest here, I’ll take that as a threat

That’s an American thing, not just Google. They only believe in a free market when it’s their products and services. Theft is fine as long as it’s only them.
