I've already jumped ship. Switching source control host was actually pretty easy. Builds still working just fine.

Ad-blockers are the most used extensions on firefox. Origin itself has 10m installs, there are others with 3m and few with 1m installs.

Are dumb TVs rare? I've never bought one, just getting TVs when other people are finished with theirs, but I'm pretty sure every one I've owned has been a dumb TV. We just connect it to the PS4 and they've all been the same.

If you say "well not by themselves" neither do humans.

For building tools with, it's bad. It's pointless tokens spend on irrelevant tics that will just be fed to other LLMs. The inane chatter should be built on the final level IF and only if, the application is a chat bot, and only if they want the chat bot to be annoying.

Weird that they think people will follow their terms of service while disregarding that of the entire internet.
