It’s been announced a few times, and then the promised date has moved.

So, not an available option.

Chevy Bolt?

Didn’t they cancel that model?

If only there had been a way to prevent all of this…

But I don’t want the EV equivalent of an Equinox, I want the EV equivalent of a base model Corolla.

Interesting that it’s Israel breaking it

Not very surprising, though.

They already said that they didn’t approve of this latest agreement.

For those of us who aren’t US taxpayers, we can avoid giving our money to those who are US taxpayers.

That’s the neat part - they don’t.

Good news.

Statically, I’ll probably need this type of therapy within the next 10-15 years. I hope it’s ready for general clinical use by then.

Will be interesting to see how this ouroboros functions in 10 years when it’s still recycling the state of the art as of 2022, and the senior devs start retiring with nothing but agentic backfills.

That’s a concern for future executives.

The ones making today’s decisions only need concern themselves with the current quarter’s profits.

By the time things fall apart, they’ll be down the road enjoying their golden parachute, while making “bold decisions” at some other company.

Also, if you want your card provider to stop a certain merchant from getting payments, you can usually do that relatively easily.

That is becoming less “relatively easy” than it was even a few years ago. The CC companies are adding more steps than there once was.

I don’t trust big businesses to act in my interest, even when it is also very much in their best interests.

Witness the insurance industry flagging the risks of climate change an a massive risk to their industry, and then not using their immense marketing and lobbying power to push for changes that would ultimately result in better future profits (and even survivability) for themselves.

That is the way to prevent it.

But, frustratingly, most people who have one will probably connect it to the internet just because that’s what the manual says to do during the set up procedure.

It’s getting harder to find devices that don’t insist on being connected.

if it’s optional features I would never even touch then ehh whatever.

Until they push a software update to your device to force using the app for basic features…

This is far from a Nintendo exclusive problem.

It is the way entire industries are going (and have been going for decades).

It’s only strong consumer protection laws that stand in their way.

I don’t get it either, but it was also a big problem on Reddit for years.

They’ll still track you.

There are (admittedly inconvenient) actions I can take to reduce how much I’m tracked, and also to intentionally pollute a portion of the tracking data that they do collect.

Or I could just give up and let the fuckers win…

There are four lights.

AI agents will be become invisible, inescapable, follow you across devices

But what if I don’t want them to?

The cameras on poles can’t see literally everywhere, and can’t physically follow you around.

And the cameras on poles have (at least in theory) regulations and laws governing how their footage can (and cannot) be used.

MetaCreepSpecs don’t have any such restrictions.
