This smells like DRM and planned obsolescence to me.
Readit NewsIn a side news, they announced the death of Fleet.
This is sad for me because I found it good enough to integrate it in my daily workflow.
I hope they at least consider to drop it on GitHub and allow people to give it a chance as community project.
This will be transient. Marketing and companies eventually will find a way to pollute LLMs to bend, comply to their strategies and fuck consumers.
SEO wasn't a thing before '97.

... whatever that means.
Letting children choose their own way is good. It is, however, very difficult in the age of global surveillance, when every toy is only used to collect data about its user.
Families who choose Montessori school for their children usually avoid them have access smartphone, TV or internet in general.
Also, they are often in the wealthy, upper class so can enforce that kind on environment.
What about sharing GPU across multiple VMs? Isn't Nvidia walled this feature behind unreasonably high price features?
Yes, it is becoming increasingly difficult to buy a non-smart TV. I don't like living in a world where my TV can crash or be down for a software update (which have both happened to me). They're also ticking time-bombs - who knows when support will be dropped and the apps will slowly break as they gradually fall out of compatibility with the external APIs they depend on. What horrors lurk in the depths of those lovelessly constructed TV OSs that call out to servers and will cause mayhem when those servers are decommissioned?
Keep them airgapped or use a smart HDMI stick, their support typically outperform anything from the TV vendor and you can install apps (e.g. Jellyfin) on them. If you dislike Google or Amazon there are some Linux based options.
There is also HDMI over-radio but I don't know its limits (range, bandwidth, latency).

The energy source for AC is a big issue but the refrigerant gas in most AC units cause issues for the ozone and for global climate change.
Is this still true in 2024? AFIK, modern ( everything after 2010) ACs, pumps and refrigerator use ozone neutral gas like HFC.
I wonder what they will do next with that obscene amount of money.
