Reminds me of seeing Putin bragging a few months ago about how Russia has more nukes than the US/NATO/whatever. Well yes, you better hope so, because if shit hits the fan, you have to take on basically the entire free world by yourself, whereas the entire free world is aiming everything they've got at just you.

Do the trajectories between fixed locations change very often?

chat.lmsys.org has a zillion models you can use.

Gotta imagine Boeing is giving some pretty massive discounts on them at this point.

Yup, I too use Phind sometimes, and it's amazing. Plus if I want to chat with approximately any model known to man, there's chat.lmsys.org and labs.perplexity.ai. Microsoft thoroughly shit the bed by taking a narrow opportunity to get people to move to Bing as an opportunity to instead go "hey, let's blow this on trying to force people to use Edge!"

Considering all the open models that already exist and are yet to be created before all the rulings and appeals are done, that toothpaste ain't going back in the tube.

Too late, they blew their one shot. Ain't no one who tried it when it was new and hyped and was told that they couldn't use it since they weren't using Edge setting reminders to go back occasionally and check whether Microsoft has finally pulled their head out of their ass, it just instantly ceased to exist for them.

I remember going to check it out, and them refusing to let me try it unless I used Edge and/or a Bing account (don't remember exactly and don't care). And that's how they blew their one shot to get me and hordes of others to give a flying fuck about it.

It's unlikely that any of them are Ukrainian.

If there's anything that their gloriously failed sneak attack on Ukraine has shown us, it's that yes, yes they are. Imagine if the most advanced weaponry they were facing wasn't small amounts of slow-coming ancient hand-me-downs employed by people who have barely even trained to use them . . . .

> USA is a large closed economy. China is a large open economy. I’m simplifying, . . . .

Yes, "simplifying" to the point of getting it completely backwards.

> This cannot be repeated enough. It’s harmful to almost everyone to allow sideloading on iPhone. Power without the knowledge to use it responsibly results in actual real world harm. This may sound paternalistic but it’s what it is. I’m all in for a developer mode with a knowledge/competency check, choke full of warnings, make the user wait x days before it is enabled, whatever. But don’t allow it, not in a way a scammer could tell my grandma “oh yes we need to use that feature behind the warning to refund the funds to your bank account, now please tap accept…”

Most people don't want to live in a lowest common denominator world dumbed down to the point where even the stupidest/most gullible person one could ever imagine can't possibly screw up.

Yeah, because once you're exposed to food that's actually tasty, who the hell wants to eat vegetables.

> Veggies are great. Tasty . . . .

You will find that that is . . . not a universally held opinion. Otherwise everyone would stuff their faces with them.
