A must rewatch for me each holiday season.

This is typical of ChatGPT, it won't tell you specific things about the Order of the Arrow for Boy Scouts even though all the information is available publicly for anyone to look up, but you are supposed to experience it without looking it up. ChatGPT won't share because it doesn't want to spoil it.

To me, the single best functionality missing from Android is a reasonable analog of AirDrop.
I miss old AirDrop, it's not as much fun without the pic previews you are forced to see and strangers leaving their airdrop on. :lol:

Cast Chris Pratt as the son from The Mummy Returns. Mimic the story beats of Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade. Profit $$$
I don't know about Pratt, but Brendan playing the same style role as Connery would be hilarious.
I think someone like Glen Powell would be fun to screw around with Brendan.
Joying head units are super popular on the Tacoma World forums. Probably same factory. :lol:

I loved that little piece of shite
:lol: I think the only phone I hated more was the Blackberry Storm. I was coming from a Droid Incredible which I still think is one of the best Android phones ever made.

So we are just going to exclude their Nexus line of phones, which were basically superior to iPhones in every way
The Galaxy Nexus was a piece of shite.

In any case, I’m glad iPhone users will finally have decent AI software. Siri is a complete joke.
I enabled ChatGPT on Siri, it works fine. I mostly use ChatGPT directly through the app since I pay for it. Grok is ok, but I have had better results for my needs with ChatGPT. I've not had anywhere close to as a good of results with Google's stuff.

first elon makes apple quit the dream of an iPhone car, then they whiff on AI
its ok, neither of those 2 emerging technologies are a big deal; hey -- spaceship donut campus!
eta if Jobs was alive, do you think he would have spiked the EV project or missed the boat entirely on AI?
Honestly, Apple's wait and see has them so far behind companies like Facebook, OpenAI, Elon, and Google with AI. They have so far to catch up with datacenters to even be remotely competitive. It makes sense to partner..
I find it funny Elon is busy pissing off Memphis running way more shitty generators than he said he would to power his AI data centers.

I think Jobs would have pushed them somewhere new. He failed a lot on some of his projects, but he wasn't scared to do something big like Apple seems to do now. They go for safe choices.

Follow up questions:
Would the A1 mini be ok as a starter??
Regardless, would it be best to get the combo sign the AMS kit?
Go ahead and spend the extra money to get the A1 with the AMS. Buy once, cry once. The size of the A1 combined with the AMS is an amazing printer that is good to go for awhile.
Cryo Grip Glacier plate to go with it will ensure they have successful prints.

Looks like Little Coyote got a Bib in Chatt. That place is really hit or miss. Had some pretty bad food there. It's got the right fancy look to it I guess, but I wouldn't put it on my must eat list in Chatt.

I'm surprised they didn't go with OpenAI, they have been integrating them more into iOS.

Since America is scheduled to switch back to standard time in less than a week, I'm going to assume that , even though this President and the last one talked about changing it, we are still moving our clocks back this Saturday night/ Sunday morning.
Guess starting next Monday, I'll have to wait til next March to enjoy any daylight at the end of the workday.
Senate passed making daylight time permanent with the Sunshine Act awhile back..
Pelosi killed it in the house, said it wasn't a priority even though it was wanted by both parties.

People really freak out about this topic. I simply just don't care either way and won't have to make the decision for a kid thankfully.
I've heard a lot of horror stories about complications from it and also worse ones from a buddy in the ER about people who didn't have it done. It's mostly children in homes where their parents don't teach them to wash or wash their kids, old men in bad nursing homes, and homeless people. If you wash right, it shouldn't be an issue any longer.
Basically, if you aren't snipped, you might want it done if you think your kids are gonna stick you in a shitty nursing home.
Banning it entirely is dumb, it can be a necessary medical procedure for people who didn't or can't take care of themselves properly.
