It most definitely isn't, but it takes significantly more effort than the bloggers want to make it seem like.

Giving your retina scan to one of the main Slop Bros, what could possibly go wrong?

Source: Trust me, bro. A company selling an AI model telling others their AI model is so good that it's building itself. What could possibly motivate them to say that?

Remember a few years ago when Sam Altman said we had to pause AI development for 6 months because otherwise we would have the singularity and it would end the world? Yeah, about that...

SAP needs servers though, if they buy SAP hosted in AWS that kind of defeats the purpose.

Being able to link to a BBC article (Or whatever major news source you prefer) to a customer is the best type of outage. "Look, this is so big it made the news - this isn't our fault"

I had a similar experience, I tried with some photos from various European cities and while it pretty much always got the city correct it was hilariously confidently incorrect in the exact location within the city. They were plausible but nowhere near the level of accuracy the article describes. All the images had distinctly recognizable landmarks which a resident of said city would know and which also have images available online given one knows the name of the landmark so I'm not particularly impressed.

In fact some of the answers were completely geographically impossible where it said "The image is taken from location X showing location Y" when it's not possible to see location Y if one is standing at location X. Like saying "The photo is taken in Central Park looking north showing the Statue of Liberty".

Contrary to the belief of a lot of Americans, just because it works in the US doesn't mean it works elsewhere. In the rest of the world a driver's license is used for proving your right to drive and we have a thing called passports for proving your identity. Hetzner isn't an American company so why should they accept American drivers licenses?

Definitely, but it's also a lot more complex to present credible looking false data than to simply reject a request.

Not to mention that this is paid by insurance in many countries which means there is little incentive for individuals to shop around.

Works great with an evening flight, you can work all day and leave for the airport after work.

The 24th of December is a weekend by law in Sweden (Semesterlag 3 a §)

"Lördag och söndag räknas inte som semesterdagar annat än i fall som avses i 9 § tredje stycket. Med söndag jämställs allmän helgdag samt midsommarafton, julafton och nyårsafton."

It's not exactly neither hard nor expensive to buy a residential IP proxy services to get around that.

There's this Taylor girl who seems pretty popular but maybe you're right, the record concert sales probably implies nobody is listening to her.

That's like saying gambling companies aren't predatory because personally I only bet on sports every once in a while and never more than I can afford to lose.

Until the new engine rules when it will be removed because it was deemed to expensive, complex and the technology didn't translate to road cars enough for them to justify the R&D.

I mean it is?

"Cantonese (traditional Chinese: 廣東話; simplified Chinese: 广东话; Jyutping: Gwong2 dung1 waa2; Cantonese Yale: Gwóngdùng wá) is a language within the Chinese (Sinitic) branch of the Sino-Tibetan languages"

To be fair iTunes wasn't that great either, it was mostly a necessity to use iPhone (Update etc). Personally I haven't used any of these apps since it became possible to perform backups and updates without a computer.

Not really, no card counter goes unnoticed forever. It's about making sure you get enough time to play when the count is high that you manage to earn money. If you're curious about the life of card counters I can't recommend this YouTube channel enough: https://www.youtube.com/stevenbridges

And F150 Lightning. It's pretty much par for the course these days for cars in short supply and I suppose the intentions are good, to keep people from jacking up the price, but I guess dealers do that instead?
