Theres firestick apps that stream all the regular channels, plus all the premium channels. (HBO, showtime, stars, ppv, etc) Essentially for $10 - $20 a month you get the best, most decked out cable package one could buy. You may or may not have access to all the new and old movies, TV shows (from all the platforms), and porn, on demand, as well. Maybe like that?

My old HTC one had an ir blaster. It was great.

Try clicking the comment number link, not the title link. I don't understand the difference, but it sometimes it changes things.

Gotcha.

Upon looking into it further it seems they just bought the design department. That's crazy.

I used to love HTC phones, and was a loyal customer. Glad they're trying to make a comeback.

Didn't google buy HTC?

Foe.

I just watched it because there was nothing else. I didn't expect to like it.

It made me sad, but I think it was worth watching.

Ugh, the car!

I live in the heat. I have to start to car before hand, just to make it so the family doesn't melt to the seats. It connects. I switch it back to my headset. I go back in the house to get stuff to load up, and I go out of range. Get back in range. It connects again. I switch it back to the headset. I forgot something....

Rinse and repeat like 5 times before I'm good to go. Whole time, I'm only catching every 10th word of whatever someone is saying to me on the phone, thinking it lost service, or they hung up on me.

I hate auto connect.

Nah, it's good. No pressure. These are just resources that I kinda had to stumble across, although im sure theyre in some super accessible place and im just a ding dong. Figured if they could help another person, then so be it.

It's hard times right now, you do what you gotta do to keep on keeping on. Lemmy.world is a completely fine choice. They're a large, mainstream place to get comfortable in. But, if you get bored one day and want to check out what else is out there, you've got something to get you started.

I wish you luck, some free time, and some peace of mind.

If you ever decide you want to branch out, you can try the instance / community browser at https://lemmyverse.net to check out whats out there.

I will say that although it technically doesnt matter what instance you sign up with, sometimes the descriptions aren't very descriptive at all. Definitely give an instance a browse, to get a feel for the overall vibe, before you sign up.

You can check to see if an instance has been defederated from / by other instances, by entering said instance address at https://defed.xyz/

The summary for the post kinda misses the mark on what the majority of the article is pushing.

Yes, the first part describes employees struggling with AI, but the majority of the article makes the case for hiring more freelancers and updating "outdated work models and systems...to unlock the full expected productivity value of AI."

It essentially says that AI isn't the problem, since freelancers can use it perfectly. So full time employees need to be "rethinking how to best do their work and accomplish their goals in light of AI advancements."

Kinda like how they threw that lady in jail in India based on brain scans. It wasn't remotely done, but that didn't matter.

Also, Davos 2016 had a discussion on all the "social justice" applications they could use brain scan technology on. Nevermind stuff like roughly reconstructing the movie you just watched. And, by now, they've had plenty of time to come up with more fun ways to apply this technology.
