To be fair, it did use the API for chatgpt, but that was a very small part of the extension. Really interesting to see how sophisticated these can be made so quickly.

Quite bold of you to assume the majority of Americans know what the Patriot act is, let alone what the outcome was. That's half the outcome of the Patriot act...

Still quite convenient that you've yet to respond to those that provided evidence against your claims, yet still say others can't prove you wrong.

Afraid of the evidence, or think your belief is far above it?

You don't like using the same panel from 15 years ago that feels like a scavenger hunt just to see if your static IP is still working?

Part of why people are disagreeing with you is exactly because of the last statement. You're looking at a cooperate/service industry (little hands on in the actual service part, and most can be done from a terminal accessed from anywhere) from the eyes of someone in the construction industry (a VERY hands-on industry where you need to be at the site to do the work).

The problem is that the cooperate policy is so lenient, so people have less incentive to do work constantly. If it were less lenient, you'd have the less lazy people doing their jobs and the lazy ones out of a job. That being said, expecting constant results is unfair in an industry where many customers fail to see you as human, making the job even harder.

You can tell a spider program to ignore that file.

To contrast the 996 policy, 4-day workweeks have shown quite the positive result so far. The majority of companies that participated say they don't plan to go back.

The assholes trying to force everyone back to office are usually business executives that thrive on micro-managing everyone.

On Verizon, my phone (5g chip) will connect to 5g if there's even a single signal, which leads to terrible connections, and I can't manually change it to 4g unless there's no 5g signal.

That is what I got instead of a Xiaomi. Privacy issues between the US and China were kicking up a lot around that time, so i went with a more local brand.

Right, because the many countries that researched this time and time again have a "weak" argument.

The article can be summed up as "we don't like these studies because it doesn't fit out agenda. Correlation does not equal Causation, unless it benefits me!"

>that's mainly because the west walled itself off from huawei, despite the company owning a majority of the global 5G marketshare

True... It'd be great to see 5G being more globally available.

>hilarious how westerners are now rejecting advancements in technologybecause they aren't the ones driving it anymore. who needs gigabitinternet nothing needs that much bandwidth anyway!!!

I'm from the US, and i totally agree with you. The west's desire for dominance is impeding with so much potential advancement. 5G was supposed to be widespread in the US by now, but so many things are trying to avoid it - particularly a lot of airports (this hinders major cities) and states (hinders entire regions).

I was thinking of getting a Xiaomi, and the units sold certainly are not far behind American brands. A lot of restrictions are being brought up in regards to imports from China, which is quite annoying.

Did not know that. Just did a search and you're right. Thanks.

5g is still struggling to take off in many places, let alone 6g, which doesn't even have a standard yet.

This seems more like China is putting in a chip that doesn't yet have anything to connect to, so it'll default to whatever signal it can find (most likely 4g).
