You should do your research on how wake words work. They literally are only capable of identifying the selected words and they do an obscene amount of training to do so efficiently, because actually processing all the audio your phone is exposed to can’t possibly be done in a reasonable way.
He’s talking about PS plus.
The “12 month plan” is meaningfully less expensive than a year of paying monthly, so he’s using the cheapest option if you want to play online games (excluding sales, at least).
This is absurd.
Typing “Logitech unifying software download” in the address bar is massively less effort than navigating their shitshow of a site. It’s not a sign of inexperience in any way.
Allowing an ad with any third party download is an insane policy, and it is not a legitimate practice at all to use an unreliable third party with a well deserved bad reputation to download software in place of the manufacturer.
That’s not my point. Most games do install fine from the disk.
He’s talking about playing from the disk, too, and that’s a problem.
That’s disgusting.
They still have to install.
Disks are too slow.
It’s not “complexity”.
It’s that end users have no interest in paying for individual songs.
How? Your slot is designed to fit them. A damaged card having abnormal dimensions is way more likely to harm your slot than the card that isn’t supposed to bend not bending.
Choose between:
Entirely fabricated

On their own hardware, that isn’t a smartphone, because they don’t make them.
Both iOS and Android make it abundantly clear when your mic is hot and when apps have access to it. It’s not possible to listen undetected.
RCS is the new MMS. It’s the official “text message” replacement.
It’s shit and until the standard becomes not shit, messages between Android and iMessage are still going to suck. Almost all the stuff people think is RCS are the proprietary Google extensions that only work through Google’s servers.
But they’re supporting it because it’s the next iteration of “texting” carrier wise.
No, it’s not. “Your phone is listening to you” is an idiotic myth.
🤦♀️
The entire thing is completely off topic and doesn’t even sort of make any point you tried to make anywhere in the thread.
Play isn’t relevant in any way to the discussion.
You understand the difference between fiction and pretending fiction is reality?
If the alternative is corporations violating privacy even more? Absolutely.
The absolute maximum information it’s legal for corporations should be a dozen orders of magnitude less than they do right now, and asking a single user for an ID without a clear, bulletproof cause should be an instant corporate death penalty with every bit of data they’ve ever collected erased.
Privacy is a fundamental right and you shouldn’t be allowed to operate anywhere if you don’t respect it absolutely.
Usually “expensive money” means that it’s hard to borrow.
“Devalued” refers to purchasing power. “How much food will $1 buy me?”
They’re describing different things. In terms of the economic relationships that result in the current scenario, I’m not even going to try. Ignoring that we don’t really know and a lot of traditional economics rely on the assumption that actors are rational (which we now know is absurd), I’m far from an expert in macro-economic theory. Systems are complicated.
Yeah, autocorrect is bad enough without the extra emphasis on it with swipe.
Use smart lights. Have the light gradually ramp up intensity until it peaks a few minutes before your alarm goes off.
Also make sure you’re going to bed with enough time to fall asleep and get a full night’s sleep consistently.
Pictures.
Which are automatically downloaded by every active user of the chat on every individual client, and many people do at least tens per day.
Because freedom.
Windows is one OS, with limited ability to customize. Mac is one OS, with limited ability to customize.
Linux, as a core concept, is hundreds of OSes that anyone can customize any of, at will, to meet their requirements. Different versions of Linux diverge because different people/projects want different things.
