Seems like the limits of llms have been reached and they’re is no clue how to step beyond

This is how you tell your customers they should not buy any products from you in the future.

It goes beyond their IoT devices to everything they make. You cannot trust Belkin to provide you with meaningful support for any device if they get bored and they may kill your device, particularly if it is cloud connected, even before it is out is warranty. Anything which needs critical updates for security reasons is affected.

So even though I never had any of these products, I will not be buying Belkin ever again because the risk is too high.

Buy from someone else.

Not by rotw standards no. But it’s all relative. In the USA Democrats stand to the left of the repuglicans.

If they truly feel that they got something different than they voted for, they should remember that they were told a lot of this would happen by one side and told it wouldn’t by the other.

The next time they vote they should remember that and consider more than simply “left bad, right good”. But we all know they won’t. They will just say “the last guys were bad Republicans, this new group are good republicans” and vote the same way again.

I’ve long thought that conservatives are the party of “me”. They appeal to selfish desires which is why they are successful. It’s like playing the lottery. I didn’t win this time but I might next time so I’ll keep playing.

“Hi, I’d like a coffee please”

“Sure thing. Here you are sir”

“this is just hot water”

“yep but the coffee is definitely coming next year. We are just working out a few kinks. Also careful you don’t burn yourself on that, it’s a little hotter than we planned”

“but the sign says best coffee in town”

“and next year it will be, exciting isn’t it? Thank you for shopping at Tesla Coffee”

Seriously though, any other industry/ceo and it would not have been allowed to happen like this. I’m glad karma is coming back on them.

Yes I did. Your point is simply “but… more money!!!” Ignoring that bigger numbers are not the whole story.

I’m sure we can trust the police to be responsible with this power… https://www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/news/2025/04/former-police-officer-sentenced-after-admitting-stalking-charge/

It has only been 6 months. The effects of this administration will not appear in tables of budgets and salaries yet. Although in simple terms it will probably still look ok, it is far less attractive.

Cost of living matters too. From simple things like how much broadband costs (uk: £30 pcm, usa: $78 pcm) to an ambulance ride (uk: free, usa:$2000). The higher salary is an illusion.

I also note that every company in your list is a tech company. Researchers in other fields are probably not going to be as lucky.

Buying in instrumentation is also now more expensive due to tariffs so your research budget was effectively cut as well as being actually cut. Scientists with approved grants for equipment have had them revoked. Universities are advising not spending funds to provide contingency funds.

Well … Full disclosure. I’m not a journalist

“Baby rescued from apartment after single-mother tragically died days earlier”

Didn’t think it was that difficult

Is it not simply a matter of contract anyway? The states agree to pay the federal government in exchange for the security and cooperation that the federation brings. If the federal government is no longer holding up it’s end of that agreement no matter the reason, why should the States be obligated to remain in that agreement?

I’m sorry to inform you, but that’s not how democracy works. You, the collective you, voted for Trump. I’m sorry that you didn’t want this and I don’t want to blame you personally, but you are not apart from this.

It is good news in the sense that someone is in trouble and they are helping him when they didn’t have to.

The circumstances of how he is in trouble are a separate issue and one that I find so strange for a supposedly civilised nation to have.

But you guys keep voting for republicans and choosing undemocratic corporate rule over elected government rule.

Why is it seen as preferable to allow a greedy corporation you can’t get rid of to have more power over you than the government you can (supposedly) vote out?

Disagree, every ruling the scotus makes that overturns a lesser court judge makes their opposition to established law clearer. If cases went straight to scotus, it would appear that legal opinion was unanimous and not that scotus have a politically motivated agenda.

Were you expecting breaking bad and game of thrones to be comedy?

The problem with pound land was always that they not only made their USP “everything for a pound” they baked it into their name and whole premise. So when inflation inevitably devalued the pound too far, little by little the number of items available at £1 dropped along with the quality of the products.

I can’t tell you how disappointed I was to find out they had stuff in there that cost more than a pound. And what is the point of a pound shop that doesn’t sell anything at a pound.

This post deserves more love

Strike a pose.

Pretty sure that Musk has realised he alienated his prior fan base by courting this government so publicly and passionately.

Now he is trying to reclaim his former status by attacking the Trump admin thinking the left will love him for it. Trouble with that is, petulent is not a good look, nor is appearing not to have an allegiance to anything but money. His mask has slipped and that won’t be forgotten, he did a nazi salute twice on the international stage ffs. No one is going to see Musk as a champion for the left or the environment again.

Not only has he screwed Tesla by making them unfashionable, he’s now screwed SpaceX by pissing off a major source of income.

But we are still to believe that the guy is a financial genius and not just lucky, right?
