It’s sad to see how time and time again companies build up a big user base by being the best service out there, and then just assume that they’ll be the market leaders forever and ever no matter how much they enshittify.
The amount of vendor lock-in with something like Google Maps is very close to zero.
I think it must be a spectrum or something because I’m fully capable of mentally picturing things in detail if I want to, but it’s a thing I have to actually /do/. It doesn’t just happen automatically when I’m reading, I have to make a deliberate decision to picture the scene.
no, but you’re not just comparing it with nothing, you might also want to compare it with other kinds of oil. The absolute number itself is barely relevant, what most people want to know is which oil products are healthier than others.
The rotisserie shrinks it.
I was excited for the rotisserie function of my new oven until I got to the supermarket and discovered that an uncooked whole chicken costs more than a store-rotisseried whole chicken.
but that’s also true of literally any other keyword out there. They wouldn’t particularly be driving any more traffic since that’s not what the user was searching for, they’d just be getting their whole site delisted.
they definitely have the resources to whitelist valid combinations, but some shirt ran the numbers and decided it wouldn’t bring enough money in
Doesn’t solve a problem
Recording everything around you is fucking creepy
I mean at some stage you have to start wondering about the sort of person with a less-than-one-week-old account that’s up in here defending them so vociferously. I notice you’re also in other AI threads on Lemmy being equally shilly.
I read your list and stand by my statement. Half the things on that list are novelties that you’d get quickly bored of, and the other half have solutions that don’t require pervert glasses. I see zero problems being solved anywhere in the list you just made.
The actual usefulness and potential of smart glasses, especially ones with cameras, is almost unfathomable.
I thought the first paragraph was leading to a decent point, but “unfathomable usefulness” is an almost rabid level of overstatement. There’s some fathomable applications as an aid for blind people, but every other use case that’s ever come up has ranged from “novelty” to “really fucking creepy” with the occasional “looks like a useful thing but didn’t really solve an actual problem we had with the previous way of doing it”.
We’re almost certainly talking about literally everything a bot scraping catalogues decides it doesn’t have. I highly doubt it’ll be discriminating.
