Come on now, Excel isn’t that bad.

If it’s the first one when why the fuck is it called the 4004 and not just the 1?!

Some people really will believe anything, as long as you’re trash talking big tech. And this platform is particularly bad.

Just say something like you should be paying for YouTube (via ads or premium) and brace for the swarm.

Sure you can. Car manufacturers do it today.

You will have to define “3 years” as well. It can’t be a blanket 3 calendar year thing, it would have to be X number of cycles which the average user would realistically hit with 3 years of usage. Not someone glued to their phone playing games all day that need to charge three times a day.

What has encryption got to do with it?

Most of telegram is not encrypted. There are unencrypted channels on telegram right now hosting child pornography. Telegram never removes them.

When it came to the Ukraine situation, he has, in general, not missed a beat.

The UK has given an impressive amount of gear to the Ukrainians given the size of the UK military, whilst everyone else was dithering and wondering what to give and how much to ensure they still had some stuff at home, the UK attitude was “give them all the things and we’ll worry about it later”.

Obviously countries like Poland had to be more cautious.

A lot of training and intelligence has been given to Ukraine as well. The UK continues to host Ukrainian troops for training.

The UK even made binding “boots on the ground” support agreements to Norway and Sweden in case Russia tried anything during their NATO membership process.

UK gave a bunch of Challenger 2 tanks with “do what you like with them” terms, not just “pwease don’t shooty shoot on Wussian tewwitory” nonsense. This was a token gesture as actually Ukraine really wanted the German stuff but it opened the door a bit to basically embarrass Germany into getting it’s act together.

As much as I don’t like the man, Johnson did well when it came to supporting Ukraine, and credit should be given where it is due.

Logic

Please explain your reasoning.

Others have done this and you seem to be ignoring them, so not sure what the point of you asking is.

Go look at some of the code that AI is powered by. It’s just parameters. Lots and lots of parameters. Then the output from that is inevitable.

For the same reason I can’t get a date with Michelle Ryan: it’s a physical impossibility.

Huh?

If you’re too lazy to even look up the most basic thing you don’t understand, then I guess we’re done here.

You cannot convince something that has no consciousness

Why not?

Logic.

It’s an matrix of weights that answers based on the given input + some salt

And why can’t that be intelligence?

For the same reason I can’t get a date with Michelle Ryan: it’s a physical impossibility.

Why is he punishing them?

What illegal stuff?

… Asking for a friend.

Alzheimer’s is a lot more than “memory loss” and categorically affects comprehension on every level. Way to show you have no clue what you’re talking about.

I was making the point that my dad is not an idiot, but is actually quite ill and your dumb insulting comment was not needed.

But I guess insulting others helps your self esteem. So I was probably expecting too much for you to have a tiny bit of self reflection.

Edit: just had a quick look through your other comments. You’re a toxic individual and don’t seem to have a kind word for anyone.

I’m not going to lower myself to responding to you any further. So I’m going to block you now so I never have to read another thing you have to say. I’m sure you won’t be able to help yourself and will respond with more bile, but I won’t be reading it. Good luck.

He has Alzheimer’s, so maybe yes if that’s the label you want to use, but he can’t help it.

Within a year we’ll probably have to take his driving license away, that will really hurt as he values his independence greatly. Within the next couple of years he’ll be in a care home. I’d say a year after that he won’t even remember who I am. He won’t remember any of the family, or any of his friends.

Eventually he’ll have brief moments of lucidity but for the majority of the time he’ll just be talking gibberish and not having a clue what is going on around him.

Then he’ll not want to eat or drink and he’ll slowly starve himself to death. The staff at the care home will do their best but he’s on a one way trip to a miserable confusing lonely existence and a slow death that we all have to watch as his immune system attacks what is left of his brain and his body eventually gives way, long after “dad” is no longer our “dad” anymore.

It’s a horrible disease which robs you of your very soul before eventually killing you. As my Mum put it when I explained it to her: “fucking hell… I think I’d rather have cancer”.

In the meantime, I am trying my best to give technical support for the occasional times that he needs it. Even at his best he wasn’t really “tech savvy” but he did well in his prime, running a local business that allowed about 20 staff to pay their mortgages and have a good life.

He did well by us and everyone around him, so a little tech support and frustration, whilst also producing a funny anecdote for this little community, isn’t really a big deal.

Okay Dad, now click allow. The “allow” button. There is a button on your screen that says “allow”. Yes, it allows me to vi-- no I can’t until you cli-- yes, the window in the middle of the screen, there is a “allow” and “don’t allow” button— the one on the left, the left one, click that. No, you just sent me another blank email. There should be something in the middle of the scr— yes! That’s it! Click that! … Why did you click “don’t allow”?

Are we honestly expecting this election to be free and fair?

The suspect has been found and is in custody.

Sports commentator was John Hunt. He’s lost his wife and two daughters. Fucking hell.

Put a swap file on that bad boy boy and they’ve invented downloading ram!

This is a revolution.

Nah it’s okay. I was called all sorts of names and told I was against progress when I raised such concerns, so obviously I was wrong…

Too late, I’m sharpening my pitchfork!
