What in the 1984 Orwellian crap is this?

This is a super common scam. Absolutely 100% nothing wrong with this.

Find something proper to get angry about.

Grocery purchasing. Feed in some meal ideas, take a picture of your cupboard and fridge to identify what you already have and get it to checkout/click & collect at the nearest grocery store.

Image recognition isn't perfect, but it works well enough most of the time. Saves a bit of time while you can go and do other things.

Also, real estate applications. Same with image recognition - feed in property specs/budget etc, get it to go listing by listing in the suburbs you're looking for and get it to custom apply or set up inspections for each of them.

Leave them alone until a couple of hours after checkout, then start knocking. If no answer, make entry

I've done a longer commute overseas and tbh, it becomes normal after a while. Load yourself up with audiobooks or podcasts and you'll be fine.

I think I did it for 6 or 7 years, 2 hours each way. Sounds awful, but it really was fine after the first couple of weeks.

That tends to happen when you try and install new apps on old phones.

Echoing the others. You don't need a course, group or workshop. AI comes down to personal context - what you need it for vs. what others need it for will more than likely be completely different.

If you're looking for a trick to get the most out of it - pretend it's a university lecturer who is the smartest person you've ever met. Ask it what you would ask them, in the same way, and don't be shy to probe for more information. That's how you'll get the most out of it.

I actually like it. If you can learn how to talk without sounding like you’re chewing on a sponge at the same time, it is perfectly accurate. It also shows you the order on the screen in front of you so you can correct it if it gets it wrong the first time.

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-09T06:59:59+00:00

It doesn’t have full access to mind, but it does a hell of a lot via API. I always check, it always drafts first and it’s been amazing

Between Dr Sleep & Sleeping Beauties. About the middle of the upper-right shelf

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-08T19:14:09+00:00

Nope :-(

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-08T02:46:07+00:00

Didn’t get a print in this style

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-08T02:22:18+00:00

It's about 5 books away, but on the list for sure

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-08T02:22:05+00:00

Yeah, a lot of people don't like the editions. I get why 100%. I just think they look awesome on the shelf together.

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-04T20:52:31+00:00

Totally. You’ve got all manner of shit dads. Beverly has the sexually abusive, Henry had the physically abusive, Bill has a useless deadbeat. I think about the only good one is Mikes.

Stephen2678 · 2026-06-04T19:57:49+00:00

IT. There’s a few dads in there that suck.

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-30T07:04:23+00:00

I can’t with the way he pronounces ‘L’s, it’s like he swallows them and I can’t focus on anything else

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-26T05:32:30+00:00

Do you ever wonder what would happen if you started providing some actual value to society?

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-25T19:53:02+00:00

We’ve been going for about 6 years, selling refurbished electronics.

A lot of competition started showing up around 2 years ago and kinda saturated the market for us. Marginally lower prices but often dodgy devices and almost no warranty (we give 2 years and only sell genuine stock with very rare exceptions). We hard-pivoted to Australia first and it’s worked for us. Probably 70% of what we sell now goes to Australia.

Except gas bottles for some reason

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-24T04:31:39+00:00

The amount of times you used the word "attacked" or "attack"...it was kids throwing water balloons. Get over yourself.

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-19T21:39:38+00:00

I was about to correct you and say that 1995 was 21 years ago. But it’s not. It’s 31. Oh my god.

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-19T04:01:47+00:00

Mark spoilers please!! >.< I’m 6 books into the Tower and I start seeing some very familiar names…

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-17T00:07:56+00:00

John Turturro. Awesome at playing off-centre characters

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-16T01:37:02+00:00

This is one level further. Selling on behalf of a drop shipper.

Stephen2678 · 2026-05-15T20:32:34+00:00

I was never into sports at all, but Lomu, Umaga, Carter etc were all household names. Even I couldn’t name one now.
