You're saying th AI bubble has popped because even more smaller companies and individuals are getting in on the action?

Thats kind of the definition of a bubble actually. When more and more people start trying to make money on a trend that doesn't have that much real value in it. This happened with the dotcom bubble nearly the same. It wasn't that the web/tech wasn't valuable, it's now the most valuable sector of the world economy, but at the time the bubble expanded more was being invested than it was worth because no one wanted to miss out and it was accessible enough almost anyone could try it out.

Are you really going to change the fuse in the receptacle when you plug a different cable in?

Low amp rated extension cords are dangerous unless they have a fuse in the cable. Best practice is to always use a cable that is rated higher than the circuit breakers.

Since movies take lots of time to make and being "finished" is an arbitrary decision made by the director and/or producer, it would be nearly impossible to pinpoint one as the last.

Kind of like a musician's last song. Was it the last one they published, recorded, or wrote? What about the last song they half wrote or maybe recorded some partial demos?

If there are no consequences for cops lying then it will keep getting worse.

They want you to need them. If you don't need them, you might be thinking independently. You might not go along with it when they want you to do unreasonable things.

I'm confused, did it SMASH or did it crawl?

It's not new, just getting worse, huh?

Yeah, what a terrible headline. Makes it sound like an event that happened that scientists saw, rather than an ongoing process that's been happening for millions(?) of years and will continue long past the end of humanity.

Tldr: Publishers charge libraries more for ebooks and audiobooks than paper copies, and require annual license renewals. The Spokane library spends 1/3 of their annual budget on digital licensing.

No joke that's why I don't like heated seats except on the very lowest setting (which is till sometimes too high). Feels like sitting in a puddle of warm piss.

I just want vented seats for those days where the seat material gets so hot, because to get any decent features in most new cars you HAVE to get the "leather" instead of fabric.
