I get that. I was weighing the Keyphone, Sidephone and Clicks Communicator. I’d have maybe gone with the Clicks but I waited too long and the price jumped up quite a bit.
I liked the Sidephone but the battery was smaller and non-replaceable, no headphone jack and no eSIM.
For me, since I was craving the phone style of my youth, the Keyphone was the clear winner but it’s just nice to see these alternative phone types in the market.
It’s not for everyone but I’ve switched to a Keyphone Hybrid. It has a removable battery, headphone jack, physical keyboard and de-googled OS.
It’s a “dumb phone” but they’re continuing to develop for it and are responsive to feedback. I love it because it’s the size of an iPhone Mini and it does what I need it to do without the distractions.
I have my old smartphone still that I use around the house or on WiFi similar to how many use a full size tablet.
Might also be an attempt to keep their Search numbers up. I saw an article recently that AI is hurting Google Search because of the lack of click through due to AI summaries.
By packaging them together they get to boost both options through a semi-captive audience.
The point is, why is Russia supposedly the enemy of the US again?
Really? I thought the point was “Musk must be charged for treason.”
Didn’t realize you conflated a whole different argument into that one sentence.
Maybe take your strawman into the fields with the rest of the scarecrows.
Maybe this isn’t but that doesn’t mean Musk hasn’t committed, and shouldn’t be tried for, treason.
That’s not really in agreement with your understanding of the encyclopedias either
It sure is, because my understanding is the dictionary definition. I don’t agree with the commenter you originally replied too either, but your reply, as I said, is not the gotcha you might think it was.
I don’t think this is the gotcha you think it is. You posted the etymology which is the origin of the word but not the modern definition.

Emphasis is mine.
Police don’t make that distinction unfortunately. The disorderly conduct statute looks pretty broad, its likely it’s used largely as a tool to force compliance.
I thought about setting up my own personal instance, but I didn’t want to have to deal moderate any CSAM.
After looking at the Philadelphia statute for disorderly conduct I’m assuming it’s based off this:
Obstructing a Highway or other Public Passage. No person shall, without legal privilege to do so, intentionally or recklessly obstruct a highway, sidewalk, or other public passage.
Perfect is the enemy of good (enough).
That is basically a non-answer and doesn’t mean anything.
You struggling to understand a statement doesn’t make it a non-answer.
The reality is AI is classified a national security priority and therefore has the US govt to prevent it from running out of money.
Your conflating the current technology AI and AI companies.
but ultimately its the willingness of people/companies to use the AI that results in the win.
Ah, you’re one of those people.
There is no way it doesn’t get propped up by the government at this rate.
There absolutely is a way. It starts with people hold their governments and representatives accountable.
The AI companies can and absolutely should fail. AI itself isn’t going anywhere. That Genie is out of the box.
My thought is the AI market won’t crash because especially in data engineering and devops there is an inherent worth.
Did you see Anthropic’s IPO filing? The company is upside down and there’s so much commingling between 3 or 4 companies that when one goes the rest will topple like dominoes.
What won’t crash are the billionaires at the top. See, they’re going to cash out with piles of money and leave the index fund investors (e.g. the every day person) holding the bag.
Because it’s the only one currently where the governing bodies are puppets of the Epstein class.
Believe me, I’m old enough to know that very well. I’m more flabbergasted that state lawmakers in Utah have the audacity to believe they can accomplish what a totalitarian state can’t.
As we’ve said time and time again: the internet will always route around censorship.
Of course it will. I don’t understand why Utah thinks they can censor content when countries like North Korea and China demonstrate that a circumvention is always found.
TP-Link has been alleged to have National Security concerns due to its ties to China.
You can read for yourself but when this was in the news ~1 year ago I looked into it. To me it seems like a combination of a smear campaign started by Netgear and bad actors from the Republican Party within the government.
Edit: This is a pretty good write up that explains it without straying too far into opinion.
Not even that. I’m thinking too much money, power and influence all consolidated in one place.
The US has the most billionaires at 989 and I’m guessing of the remaining ~2400 billionaires in the world, a not insignificant amount have substantial interests in the US.
It’s good the rest of the world is watching it happen. I hope they’re taking notes because it’s not stopping in America.
