You are the only one wasting time by giving dumbass avoidance advice instead of telling us what you know.

... What insider information do you have and why do you want to keep us ignorant!?!?

The question was, "why is this a technical limitation?" Not, "what should I do to work around the limitation?".

Literally not what people are talking about. It's the "AI" part of the task that doesn't leave the device (unless it prompts to ask chat gpt). Not that it can magically gleam live info without making any request to the web...

Jeeze, fucking... get your shit straight, making me defend Apple... Fucking do better.

"All of them. Ideally.

... Oh shit, I said that second part oht loud, didn't I?"

• Every "AI" CEO ever...

No, that's NOT begging the question, that's just being an ass about actually asking a question.

Being hostile to a real question's answers is also not begging the question.

Begging the question is a logical fallacy where someone is purposefully leaving out info or otherwise twisting things to end at a conclusion that was never properly supported. The point is there is an unsupported conclusion they're trying to jump to.

Simply asking a question, even one with an obvious or sarcastic answer, is seldom "begging the question".

Uhhhhh it's an OPEN question available to people who DO dislike the OS, so no. No just ASKING a question is NOT "begging the question".

It's asking a question.

I agree, that's why I said, "... they simply don't use the units enough."

I know imperial VERY well, but that's because I lift weights listed in lbs and craft things all the time, which takes measuring. I also do 3d printing in metric, so I have a solid feel for millimeters, centimeters, and decimeters, but less so full meters because I seldom work on that scale.

Considering I had an intuition for lbs as a child, though... I don't really buy that people suck at their native units as adults. If they do, they're simply not paying attention.

Ehhhhh... measurements aren't that hard to learn. They're still measuring the same kinds of things. All measurements are still arbitrary to a human.

Basically the ONLY thing the metric system has over imperial is it matches our number system by being base-10. I know I know, it's a BIG difference for a lot of calculations to not have to throw in non-matching unit conversions, and the metric system is ultimately based on absolute values pulled from the universe. At least by definition, as meaningless as that fact is to humans just looking at a length and going, "yup, that's about 1 1/2 meters.".

Anyone who failed to build an intuition simply didn't use units enough. A lot of US carpenters like imperial units for a similar reason most like the metric system: The ratios match up to what they work with. Most people work with base-10 numbers A LOT more than base 8, 12, or 16. Though for woodworkers, when boards come in feet, blades are clean fractions of inches in size, and buildings are sized 8' tall, etc, etc, it all lines up nicely to reduce a worker's mental load.

I still think metric is superior, but imperial very much is not "senseless". The biggest reason we'll never switch is because so many industries have their ratios set for imperial units or interact with other American construction based on those ratios. Not to mention maintenance on things already built. It'd be a huge headache of a transition for many industries.

But I'll taddle on myself, I know it!

Maaaan, I'm so sad I never watched that series long enough to even get the normal baddies, let alone all the fan characters they pulled in by the end.

... though maybe I spared myself the embarassment of becoming a brony, so...

Same... and a strong urge to seppuku.
