Absolutely - Kubota is extremely popular as well. But there will always be that faction who doesn't consider it because of who owns it.

Brand name/heritage, and not much competition. I think there are only two US based companies left in business.

It's almost nonintuitive(at least to me) how many ways there are to tie the same knot. I must have watched 15 different snell techniques before I found one that seemed simple enough to remember and actually use with wet hands and slick lines.

There was no luck involved, just stealing and legal swindling.

Hate to sound like a cable company, but same. I have 8/8 available to me for barely more money, but I just don't need it. Sites don't load faster, movies don't play clearer, and I don't have a huge family. 1/1 suits me fine.

The original page actually loads fine, maybe was restored later?

I looked through a few trying not to read the short description and missed a lot of simple things, really makes you think...

I thought after the DVD era surely we'd get something more akin to SD cards or flash drives instead of more discs, really disappointed we ended up with Blu Ray.

Not a knock against your phone, but different company. Lenovo now owns and makes the cell phone line.

Motorola Solutions, the successor of the original Motorola, does the headsets/radios and such.

This is natural and even logically expected. It's just Gell-Mann amnesia in action. The world has more people spouting on things than it has people knowledgeable in said things.

Apply that to the Internet at large, and realize where LLMs got their training. They're basically ConfidentlyIncorrect personified.

Because the writing is on the wall already. Who hasn't been annoyed with "AI customer service", we already read about AI in the military, then you have the envisioned huge loss of jobs.

People generally seem to like using it as a chatbot, or answer questions, on their own terms. But anywhere it's been forced against the user asking for it has been a disaster.

Huge fan of anything with the Powermatic 80. Mine gains about 3 seconds per day. I wear a Rado but I believe both Tissot and Hamilton also offer this movement.

I think most if not all US cars do this now. My current one doesn't even have a way to keep the brights on permanently. Now to wait 8 or so years for all the old ones to cycle out :(.

OpenAI has been the absolute worst about this, historically. I found myself having to change my queries because it refused to serve things it deemed insensitive.

It's CPI, they'll just keep changing the basket of goods until the numbers look like they want them to.

"Well, inflation since 2015 is nonexistent if you swap out steaks for 3 day old catfish and fruits for kool aid packets"

Kentucky for some reason has an epidemic of this. My father lives in the middle of nowhere in a perfectly safe area, yet still at least once or twice a year someone steals the phone or power lines leading to outages. I live in a similar area in another state and it's nearly unheard of.

I wish they'd up the severity of these crimes - people willing to damage infrastructure for everyone else just to make drug money are not conducive to a functional society.

The vast majority (if not all) of these make it impossible to turn, among other fun things. Only out of curiosity, have you tried prompting further with how a bike must operate to see if it does the right thing?

It is, I suppose that's the joke. But now we find out Feng Shui says the folks with smaller living rooms had the right idea all along.

Anecdotally, I've lived in both types of setups and vastly prefer layouts conducive to seating against the wall, regardless of room size.

I'm quoting the article without technical analysis or personal biases.

I'm not in the community, so I'm taking this article at face value. If I read correctly, he made software that possibly exploited a security gap, they asked him to remove it, then he demanded free hardware. They said no, and the conversation turned sour.

Why is everyone mad at them? I'm not blaming either side, but it sounds like a rather typical failed negotiation.

That's funny, because there was a joke going around many years ago that you could tell how much money someone had by how far their couch was from the wall.

Out of curiosity, I was trying to find a source for that, but didn't find much other than old Reddit threads and a 'viral TikTok trend.'
