Perhaps, but since they’re prohibitively expensive we aren’t buying enough of them.

Baked in AI makes C Suite and shareholders happy. That’s about it.
Worked for me last week
if you have weird double monitors
Is having more than one monitor “weird” to most Linux distros? I guess I’m a huge weirdo for having 3 then…
Sounds great, I installed it last night and I’m looking forward to using it 👍🏻
This sounds great. Anyone have experience using it?
What an asshat
Because when you have shareholders, there’s no such thing as “we’re profitable enough”. Shareholders always demand more. Ads means more profit, at least in the short term. Next quarter profits are all that matter to public companies.
It’s obscene, but it’s the way it is.
As someone who works IT supporting senior citizens, this forced switch is really bad. The mail and calendar app was simple and great for them, and this change sucks. Thunderbird has not been a viable option with those I’ve tried so far - too different and too complicated for them.
Maybe a DBrand skin for Airpods?
Well, you’re just wrong about that. I worked for a company that employed front of the line customer service in Toronto that paid $80k…in 2017! I’m not saying Air Canada does (I have no idea what AC wages are), but if their agents are part of a union, it’s definitely possible.
But my point stands - if anyone thinks these companies are going to ‘do the right thing’ and hire real people when these AI chatbots exist and are so cheap, it’s just not going to happen.
I didn’t say they would pay $100k. I said it would cost probably $100k including benefits - a full time employee cost isn’t just their salary or hourly wage. There’s lots of overhead cost to employ a person at a large company. Also keep in mind this is for a Canadian, so don’t be thinking in USD. In CAD in the Toronto area (for example), it isn’t unreasonable to think even a first line phone based customer service agent salary would be between $65-70k, then the employee expenses on top of that.
Chatbot = basically free
Yearly employee = probably about $100k incl benefits
Should they hire a person? Absolutely. Will they if they can get away with it? Aww hell naw.
I have this blocked with Blokada locally on my Shield and can confirm it works great. I also prefer the stock launcher just without all the ad junk.
I recently bought a TCL TV with Android TV and I was hoping this trick would work with it but it didn’t. So if anyone knows how to make the TCL Android TV launcher interface “stock” and stay that way feel free to point it out.
There is no reason why this shouldn’t be on GitHub since it’s likely just a bunch of ADB commands anyway. In the Reddit thread the author repeatedly refused to acknowledge or address the calls to make the tool open source. No thanks, seems too shady to me.
Yeah, seems like a lengthy article to spell “money”
Absolutely this is wonderful news
You should probably ask this in a piracy community. I’m not sure if answering here is against the rules.
Govt: We’re switching to electric. Buy an EV!
Consumers: Buy Chinese affordable EV
Govt: Not like that!
