  • I have one of those because my teeth sucked and my dentist told me I need to go electric or I’ll probably get gum disease. So now it tells me whenever I should switch to a different area of my teeth. It’s really much better than manual brushing in terms of how polished your teeth get. I don’t think the “AI” part works very well, not even the pressure sensor. I wouldn’t really need it either, just tell me when to switch. It’s also a privacy nightmare but I’m kind of in between giving away my data or risking that my teeth will fall out, so it is what it is.




  • Yeah I was thinking about a portable monitor but then I’d still have to bring my private laptop when traveling (I do need it sometimes). That’s why I was wondering if an iPad could do both especially since I’ll get fully reimbursed.

    Yeah I mentioned the cable because I know sidecar won’t work and probably the picture would be better I guess?

    What kind of flakiness did you experience? Was it about picture quality or connectivity? I use universal control every now and then and sometimes it just doesn’t recognize the devices. That’s annoying but I guess I could live with this.





  • Astroturfers losing their jobs to AI. I imagine some poor guy coming home after a long day of warmongering and promoting nuclear energy, hanging up his coat: „honey, I’m home“. And the wife has prepared a beautiful dinner, it could be a wonderful day. „How was work today?“, the wife asks. And the guy has to tell her how he lost his job to the evil twin brother of ChatGPT because corporate has done the math and they realized that a bot can replace possibly hundreds of humans. It’s a tragedy really, how is the guy going to pay for his mortgage? How’s he gonna feed his family? I think astroturfers should unionize to combat this kind of automation. It creates harm to society.
