Only it's not free. If you run it in the cloud, it's heavily subsidized and proactively destroying the planet, and if you run it at home, you're still using a lot of increasingly unaffordable power, and if you want something smarter than the average American politician, the upfront investment is still very significant.

It's like a Chromebook, but for Windows. Only it doesn't run Windows. Please buy our garbage.

This is an obvious marketing exercise to promote their noai subdomain.

 

This is a completely real notice with absolutely none of the hallmarks of actual spam. The chances of this being a legitimate false positive are just about zero.

Being senile and cruel isn't an agenda

Because in the USA, private individuals don't have meaningful access to the legal system. Realistically, the best you could possibly hope for in a case like this would be a settlement in a class action where every Windows 10 user who's willing to jump through a bunch of hoops ends up with a seven dollar check in half a decade.

They've really painted themselves into a corner with their AI investments. It's starting to look like the total addressable market is a small fraction of what they'd need to break even on their atrociously ill-advised investments into the sector, and now they're becoming increasingly desperate to shoehorn a technology that nobody wants into everything they can.

Literally everybody who has an inkling of an idea of what's going on in the AI space knows how this ends, but somehow the board and c-staff at MSFT are not counted amongst the inkling havers. In a few years they're going to have to write off countless billions that they've wasted on this idiocy and nobody will be surprised but them.

I mean no, but that's probably because Spock mind melted it out of my brain too

Okay, so there's two shows from the nineties about shopping malls in space. . .

We're doomed. If 51% of the country has decided, based on a neverending stream of lies, that we should all die rather than receive basic health care, then there's really nothing much left to argue about. America has has decided it would rather commit suicide than acknowledge that there are people who DO know what they're talking about and actually listen to them.

That's it. We're done. We're all gonna die of some easily preventable plague because we didn't fucking ostracize these idiots twenty years ago. The country is now run by the people who actually believe the comical lies the GOP used to tell to keep the idiots compliant. I don't think you can come back from that.

Headline is misleading. The commander of Israel's tech intelligence unit doxxed himself. Which makes you wonder how he got to be the commander of Israel's tech intelligence unit.

A propos of nothing, I hear the rich taste like pork.
