But the websites are still putting up banners in my way, and they never remember what I consent to anyway, they just ask every time. They didn't do this before the regulation. It doesn't much matter whether a website could do be

Tokyo is fine because it's a major city with millions of people. If the commenter says "in [small town in South Carolina] for example", then likelihood for them living there skyrockets.

I don't understand how this relates to paid warranty or insurance. Your TCO for a non-Apple laptop can also include a protection fee or cost to repair with no insurance.

It's an image generator, so relying on it for any "factual" images is misguided.

But it's all fake. It's generated images. I guess I don't understand what people want out of the fake image generator. It will never produce anything historically accurate as a visual medium, because the images never existed.

I don't think an "image generator", a tool that generates images that never existed before, can be held to any sort of standard that results in history being erased.

Whether you're starting a new app as an individual or a 5-or-15-or-100-or-1000 person team, I don't see why anyone would *not* choose Swift in 2024, unless they are doing game or 3d/VR/AR graphics development, in which

This is not a large EV, it's a compact car with a lot of ground clearance. Looks like it might even be smaller than the Model 3 for passengers.

I'm willing to accept that they feel like their situation is precarious when it actually isn't, because I've certainly been there. But I also overcame it when I realized I wasn't actually thinking everything through.
