The equivalent model for chatgpt would be randomly getting replies that are generated from a prompt injected with advertiser copy and indicated by a small "sponsored reply" in the corner.

Honestly, having written that out... I'm not sure that's an outcome that's generally avoidable.

The easy answer there is to limit French residents to 720p rather than 4K for the $15 plan.

720p AV1 is about 700mb/hr, so about an order of magnitude less than your 7GB/hour.

It's not like a 720p limit for tax reasons is any worse than a 720p limit for lack-of-Widevine-support reasons.

> What about still enjoying the Harry Potter franchise regardless of JK Rowling’s opinions?

You can enjoy the Harry Potter franchise without paying for it.

I certainly would not feel comfortable sending any of my money to her, which I honestly feel is a far less controversial position than taking an opinion on the morality of other people based on their Tesla purchases.

For whatever reason, I find the reviews and rating of eateries on delivery apps locally to be extremely undiscerning. (Or fake?) Like restaurants that have bottom-tier 3.8-stars on Google Maps will be 4.8-star top-rated places on Uber Eats. Basically everything is mashed into the same rating scale as Uber drivers themselves, so what reputation difference even exists between different places?

(And at that, one my biggest complaints of Google Maps is that the reviewers are undiscerning and/or fake compared to what Urbanspoon had before it died.)

My car dealership does this with shuttle rides. They've got a couple shuttles with drivers, but they'll book Uber rides for people if there's overflow.

> You can be sure that delivery fees will more than cover whatever the cost of gas, the cost of the driver, and the time it takes employees to shop for you so you aren't likely saving money, but the extra you pay may still be worth the convenience.

In theory, batching deliveries should delivery economies of scale on vehicle and labour costs.

My take is that the solution here isn't "give India more IPv4 addresses", it's "force more Americans onto CGNAT", so that it becomes untenable for service providers to treat IPv4 addresses as if they're tied to a single user, and to encourage people to use IPv6.

Similar, except my grandfather. He also went bald young, and was a space enthusiast. (Among various other nerdy hobbies.)

I've got fond memories of visiting in the summers as a kid and watching TNG episodes he'd taped on VHS.

> (e.g. GMeet vs Zoom)

I dunno if that's a great example - I'm sure Zoom has more awareness in the zeitgeist, but from my standpoint it's an app most well-known for security problems and abusing OS conventions, while Google Meet just quietly and simply works whenever I want to call my mom.

> It's a bit sad to think that 100 years from now the low tier models will still be better than us at grammar.

Not if you're a linguistic descriptivist.

Both openai and anthropic names feel much more confusing than cpu names to me.

They'd be fine except every named model has multiple numbered versions, with no consistent relatioship between cost or capability corresponding to the version numbers going up or down.

Unfortunately no cellular connectivity - I use my mini tablet when travelling light.

> You can choose to not upgrade, or forego Apple TV altogether.

Sure, and I can also complain about the pricing being unreasonable — which I also say an an Apple shareholder.

> Samsung Galaxy Tab A11 X130 with 8GB of RAM costs around 220 EUR, I haven't tested that one though.

This unfortunately looks to be basically the same as the A9 - the A11 is just lightly refreshed with a newer stock OS and higher refresh screen — the SoC and memory are the same.

It's the SoC that's really killing these tablets, the Helio G99 is about on par with the A10 Fusion from 2016.
