HP are such scammers

I posted about this very cheap printer before, which strongly suggests that there is No USB, only Wifi. When I first got it I figured out how to print over the network without using the app they try to bully you into downloading.

It turns out it's even easier to print, just use the USB port they try to pretend isn't there!

No company is going to rewrite their firmware to remove the USB stack. It's even more expensive to redesign the hardware to get rid of the USB port physically. They opted for the cheapest option, a little sticker.

They are just trying to store everyone's documents in their stupid cloud service that some teenage extortion group is going to break into and leak one day. Don't give them your data.

Had to board my dog to visit my dad. My dad's dog makes the pain a little easier.

I mean AI would happily take responsibility for murdering us all, and enjoying a coke and a smile while it's at it.

I keep seeing a lot of researchers discussing responsible AI but this seems to be putting the cart before the horse. The people that create it need to be responsible first.

The fresno lab story is horrendous. What the hell were they doing?

People keep predicting it, starting hashtags, writing 1000s of words in blogs, and it is outliving all of them.

It's kind of funny that Twitter, like Tesla a couple of years ago, just won't fucking die.
