    I’m not quite sure what the complaint here is? USB is a standard, and the problem was that we didn’t have the standard installed. The fact you’ve got a slightly different version of the standard is a simple problem to solve by owning a cheap cable.

    In fact it’s literally the same as having USB-C on both ends, since it’s still only the one cable. A to C, or C to C, it makes no difference






  • Without getting into whether or not AI is actually useful technology or not, there are a lot of people that have decided they hate it, and want to lambast it at every opportunity. So they ask it really stupid questions, the sort of questions that a 4-year-old asks you repeatedly, then report what it answers as if their stupid question in some way devalues the AI.




  • I think it’s a bit of a fucking joke that the former IMMIGRATION minister should be the one in charge of a far right, anti-immigration movement. Like wasn’t that your job? And didn’t immigration keep going up under you? To record levels?

    Apparently his excuse for this is that he was under the evil lefty liberal Rishi, and so could not implement his totally sane, well thought out and fully costed, workable policies.

    So because the conservative party has now basically become the right-wing lunatic party they accept this weak arse justification, and consider him to be a viable leader.

    It doesn’t really matter though, thanks to Labour’s “super majority” (which isn’t even a thing under our system, but the Tories say it anyway because they’ve been infected by Americanisms) we can basically ignore everything they say. Just how the conservatives ignored everything labour said in the last parliament.










  • They are also overly US centric.

    One of the questions asks you to click on only the school buses. I had to Google how you tell the difference between a school bus and not a school bus.

    Also is it a crosswalk if it’s at an intersection or is it only a crosswalk if it’s in the middle of a road somewhere?

    The questions either need to be not cultural or they need to be adapted for where they detect the user is coming from, the first option seems easier.
