>Why Are Some Electronic Bikes and Scooters Catching Fire?
>Several electric scooters and electric bikes are bursting into flames. According to New York City Fire Department, e-battery-related fires are up a whopping 233% in two years in the Big Apple. The fires have resulted in 163 injuries and 10 deaths, including a 5-year-old girl who was killed in an apartment building fire. California couple Daniel and Linda Jones say they lost everything when their electric scooter caught on fire. Electrical engineer Brad Davis says many fires are caused by overcharging or faulty batteries.

>OpenAI Reportingly Hiring "Army" of Devs to Train AI to Replace Entry-Level Coders
>Knowing what a line of code might look like is one thing. Having a nuanced understanding of why and how a program needs to be written is entirely another, and by quietly outsourcing human engineers' thought processes, OpenAI seems intent on closing that gap.

What? It's not hard to code mugen characters, just tedious. Although if the AI can code for people, the troons infiltrating and taking over spaces for programmers might find it even easier to keep pretending to know how to code.

How many were out of business when kids didn't have to be chimney sweeps any more? People at the time claimed this would destroy the economy. It didn't.
It will replace retards who are only capable of doing entry-level shit AIs can do better. Or enable retards who can't code at all or fix/edit their code when told to. But if retards don't get identified and removed by the company, they were dievershitty hires anyway.
AI is a useful tool because it can automate tedious tasks the rich would normally pay people to do for them.
Go and make something with the aid of AI, it's surprisingly fun.

You still don't get it.
Having millions out of work is recipe for social collapse. Look at North Korea for example, a very backward society with full employment and therefore almost guaranteed social stability.

Even if societal collapse did happen just because a ton of coders get fired for not being better at coding than an AI, do you think social collapse will benefit heavily armed fit white men and their heavily armed fit white friends? Or do you think it will benefit the jews whose power relies on brainwashed whites and foreign mercenaries to uphold?

Suicide is homosexual because killing one gay nigger isn't as cool as killing hundreds of gay niggers in a mass shooting after a crime spree full of sabotage.

Alternative is to get a FOSS smart phone. My experience with my Samsung A52 with LineageOS has been great. Only FOSS apps and absolutely no jewgle garbage

Meh, they want to limit screen-time tho. It's not about privacy.
That said, LineageOS is great. It also has superior backwards compatibility with older android apps in my experience.
You can also run it in Linux with nearly native speed through a container:

Hive mind brother. I just switched over to Mint and HoloIso(SteamOs3) for my gaming computer. Fuck Bill Gates. He only bought his OS. Balmer did all the work.

The picture on the left was made with passion. A unique pony with a unique pose and a unique outfit. Her cute anime eyes are adorable.
It's not show-accurate like the recolour on the right, probably traced from Octavia or some other background pony, but I think it's better that way.

>Samsung Fights Back Against Beijing's Tech Theft, Sues Chinese Firm BOE Over Patent Infringement
>Amid escalating tension between South Korea and China, Samsung has drawn attention by pulling out of the Shanghai Mobile World Congress for the first time in six years and initiating its maiden patent lawsuit against Chinese company BOE. The moves come in the wake of repeated allegations of technology theft by China against Samsung’s technology.

New revolutionary Chinese phone.
Four million advance orders for a $2800 phone in three days. The Chinese market has collapsed. Western companies can safely stay away.
Black market price already over RMB 90K ($12,641)
4 million pre-order with an estimated 60-100K initial batch available

How though? What new technologies does it utilize? Multi+Folding screen phones have been out for a while now and they're generally regarded as dysfunctional and fragile with no practical applications found for the added screens or flexibility. Every other spec listing from the (uselessly) high megapixel optically stabilized camera to the multi gigs of RAM are common on enthusiast phones from all other manufacturers.

The fascinatingly dystopian swing to the ordeal is that a hundred million Chinese and Indians are in a rush to finance such a device for it to only be used to scam Westerners out of the digital currency, which we all know is what the dual SIM is for.

idk, seems to me tech is just sort of out of ideas. They have been for awhile now. That's why they've transitioned from making genuine innovations and improvements to just grafting new novelty features onto devices that are already about as functional as they're going to get. Like a bendable screen is pretty cool from an engineering point of view I guess, it's neat that they figured out how to make that work. However, I can't say I've ever been in a situation where I find myself saying "gee, this task would be so much easier if only I could bend my phone in half."

I think it is about real state aka how many pixels can be shown. To me it looks like a natural evolution from a tiny surface meant to show rich text.
