Most things work via menus, the key bindings just speed things up.

Actually corporations themselves are 99% of what people fear about AGI already in their inhuman decisionmaking to the detriment of humanity.

Well, apart from the people like me who thought they had always been one because they acted exactly like one.

As someone who lived with them for the first thirty years or so of my life I am very glad they are gone. I haven't had to replace a single light in my last ten years since I moved to a home that is all LED while it was a constant thing in my childhood.

So what you are saying is that unless the next CEO assassin uses vehicle data to figure out where his target is it won't happen?

People advocating for the 99 shitty technologies that die always seem to like to quote the people talking about the one technology that survived from past generations as if that somehow made criticism of the 99 others a bad call.

As people have been saying for years, the S in IoT stands for security.

Some bits of Minecraft can actually be quite beautiful (e.g. the caves where the axolotls occur) but the graphics are certainly not photorealistic.

I suspect the prettiness sells better in the investment meetings to people who have no clue about gameplay anyway.

The main problem with pretty graphics is that you actually lose out on the kind of variety a more abstract graphics style would allow, e.g. by distinguishing objects in a textual description you can have millions of distinct objects (e.g. in something like Dwarf Fortress with its item and character descriptions), much more than you could if you had to represent everything graphically.

From my understanding it depends on the area covered. Generally it is less of a problem if you e.g. just point it at the opposite wall in front of your apartment door or something similar restrictive and much more of a problem if you point it across the street. Commercial and residential use are also treated differently and there might also be additional problems due to usage of the recordings by Amazon or excessive storage durations.
