I suspect it was part of some stupid copy protection scheme.


Adobe has no scruples.
I used to work for a full-disk encryption vendor in the 2000s, and one customer had an issue where the machine would BSOD sometimes if both our product and Adobe Acrobat were installed. It seemed a mystery or just a red herring - what on Earth did Acrobat do that could trigger a kernel-mode crash?
Turned out that every hour or so, Acrobat would be reading and writing back the master boot record (containing the OS bootstrap code and partition table) on the primary hard drive. The bug was ours (to unlock the hard drive keys at boot we had to put different data there and redirect I/O after Windows started, and this redirection code would crash once in a blue moon), but Adobe has no business mucking about with this extremely sensitive data.


I read this from the start with the mind that it’s probably an April fool’s joke, but not once did I see any indication to exaggerate or build up to a humorous absurdness. It’s just a long article that could be true but isn’t. Stupid and a waste of time.

I wasn’t implying that, but a new instance of the same model also uses up resources to manufacture.


That would be fine if parts like the battery, charger port and microphone were replaceable. But they’re not, and so I need a new phone when there’s no capacity left in my existing one.


The article says “sometimes provide less-accurate and less-truthful responses to users who have lower English proficiency”. This is what I was commenting on. I don’t have enough understanding to comment on your case.


I mean… isn’t it just logical that if you express yourself ambiguously, you are more likely to get a poor response? Humans and chatbots alike need clarity to respond appropriately. I don’t think we can ever expect things to work differently.


But the article is about what material is used as a conductor


Are you implying that gold isolates better from interference than copper?

They’re already changing the name of MS Office to “Microsoft Copilot App”. So when you use Copilot inside Microsoft Office on Windows, you’ll be running Copilot in the Copilot App on Copilot OS.


Only ignorant people. I had dreams of visiting and maybe doing a road trip, but under Trump I’m definitely not going there voluntarily. Even if my employer wants me to go there on business I’m refusing. I’d rather find another job than cross the US border.


So then they should say that instead.


I’m curious how they define AI. In my view AI has been used for games for as long as games have existed.


Yeah my IT department won’t see that as a feature. They want to be the man in the middle.


Not when you have to do SAML authentication to get a token for your AD account first.
