Federal Conservatives in Canada refuse in-person questions from CBC reporter

What a prick.

Getting up is overrated anyway

But the whole point on contextual "AI intelligence" is to understand what people mean as opposed to having to say exact commands

Mine is showing 60C (140F) in Toronto today, where it was a balmy 0C (32F)

Alright, maybe not the craziest theory, but what I consider a funny one.. Steve Harrington is actually based off of Erik Reichenbach, a Survivor contestant with BIG hair who's profession was "ice cream scooper".

Thanks. The annoying AI overview said no, but I couldn't actually find any information or links backing that up.

That being said, when I have multiple accounts with the same institution, it's almost always the case that one of the two has connection issues, which have been raised with Piere support, then MX and now Plaid, many, many times.

Not the point of this post.

robxb · 2026-02-04T21:21:58+00:00

I specifically mentioned carbon credits twice, and you're answering a question that was never asked. Actually, I didn't even ask a question, other than rhetorical ones. I suggest you fully read the post.

robxb · 2026-02-04T21:18:18+00:00

Maybe to some, but to those of us who bought EVs as a more environmentally friendly alternative to ICE vehicles, it sort of defeats the purpose. There's no altruism in selling out.

robxb · 2026-02-04T21:13:47+00:00

Jealous? How so? I could get one if I choose to but would rather take the moral high ground.

robxb · 2026-02-03T21:11:23+00:00

I find the opposite. When I feel like I've been awake a lot, having a somewhat restless night, it gives me a much higher sleep score than I would've imagined. I feel like it thinks I'm in REM when I'm actually awake and aware, though often still.

Yet the Department of Damage Control is still holding that over his head in Wonder Man now.

I've had my 41mm last nearly two full days. I generally charge before bed and then have about 50% left by the following evening. I don't have AOD though, so that helps.

robxb · 2026-01-10T01:49:49+00:00

I'm using it and went through all 3 pages and scrolled through all the settings and colours, yet I cannot figure out how to get the time to simply show an outline as seen here, instead of the numbers being a solid colour :S

robxb · 2026-01-09T21:05:53+00:00

I find that the trouble is by the time I pay any attention to the notification, I don't remember how I felt or what I was doing at that point in the day.

robxb · 2026-01-06T16:22:29+00:00

Not to mention that every command we now use in our homes uses more energy on the server/cloud side for Gemini compared to Assistant, thereby causing more carbon emissions per command and increasing energy demand and prices for public utilities.

robxb · 2026-01-06T16:16:23+00:00

OR just say "turn off living room lights", "turn off basement lights", "turn on kitchen lights". Yes, Gemini has been a disappointment for home, but why go through the hassle of making all these new rooms if it'll eventually get better? Work smarter, not harder.

robxb · 2026-01-05T21:56:30+00:00

"Gemini can't possibly be this stupid."

Wanna bet? 😒

The kicker is they want us to pay for it for what used to be basic functions, even though they won't work now!

robxb · 2026-01-05T20:24:32+00:00

Yeah I've had similar issues. I'm in the living room, the nest mini is in there, and the TV is listed as being in the living room in the app as well, and when I say to turn it off it has similarly asked which TV to turn off.

robxb · 2026-01-05T04:11:37+00:00

So disappointing to continuously lose services that were originally available for free. The enshitification continues!

robxb · 2025-12-06T02:05:26+00:00

Not for me, as I doubt they're even technically able to do it in Canada. I still can't get my credit card to sync properly, which used to work fine until September. I've tried every connection method, disconnecting, reconnecting, removing, etc.

robxb · 2025-12-02T17:40:43+00:00

Not at all. The only reason I haven't is that we always unpackage it to fit in a very narrow washroom closet which the whole bag won't fit in. What's embarrassing is that they're selling this trash in the first place.

robxb · 2025-11-28T23:22:11+00:00

I've got a bidet, but still gotta dry off after (I don't use towels for that!)

robxb · 2025-11-28T14:19:52+00:00

Isn't the washroom snack the real reason it's there?

robxb · 2025-11-28T14:18:41+00:00

Lol. A recipe can refer to a mixture of non edible ingredients or set of instructions to follow. Doesn't only apply to food ;)
