Funnily enough, I had a burger with pineapple on it when I was in Australia. It was great, I really liked the juiciness and taste the pineapple brought to the burger.

Granted, it was at an Oporto (which is kinda like upscale McDonald’s with a Portuguese theme to it for the uninitiated), but it was pretty good nonetheless; I’d have it again.

Mhh, the System Update page for 16 on my Pixel is dedicated to AI bullshit, nothing actually useful… Nice

They really need to take more time with major updates, what good is releasing a new version every year when it’s just new AI slop?

New wallpapers? Sign me up! /s

That’s another thing I was wondering about; Google used to design their own Chromebooks, but those always were the premium options and way too expensive for school use.

Google didn’t respond to Ars Technica’s request for comment.

To be fair, I don’t really see why they should. Chances are they didn’t factor in that level of stupidity when designing those things.

Holy shit I love this

Wow, this is super distasteful and manipulative.

Another great alternative to Acrobat (Reader) is Okular; it’s free, open source and runs on Linux, Windows and macOS.

It’s been my go-to PDF reader since switching to Linux, since it already came pre-installed with Manjaro KDE.

Someone once said on here that NEC made TVs like that but I couldn’t find anything

Yes, it’s even worse than that; it’s worse²

I still don’t believe that Kubrick actually wanted the movie to be as bad as it was…

Even worse, he directed Earwig and the Witch… Tales From Earthsea was at least somewhat competent

Celebrate 50 years of Microsoft by switching to Linux

No one should buy either of them IMO. These super cheap mobile devices are more or less e-waste from day one…

I don’t know if they can really do that since Gemini is just an LLM at its core. Maybe they could integrate Assistant functionality into Gemini on Android that’s then triggered by certain keywords, but at that point why not just keep both Assistant and Gemini?

Gemini is hardly an uprade to Assistant, though. Gemini can’t do any task automation (aka the one thing Google Assistant could do) because it’s a LLM that most likely doesn’t even ‘know’ that it’s being run on a phone…

It’s amazing what they’ll do to avoid paying actual cashiers

And I have PDO pressings of Faith No More albums that are almost 40 years old and have just started to rot. Common occurrence with PDO pressings apparently; one manufacturing error is all it takes.

I mostly don’t follow the news; I value my mental health too much for that these days…

Am I the only one thinking of this?
