full-spectrum lighting

this doesn’t sound true.

iirc full spectrum means “every wavelength” (like sunlight) and not just “3 wavelengths that add up to white”.

You vote with your wallets. Each time you buy a phone without SD cart, you are submitting a ballot.

Seriously. phones are 99% identical anyways. It’s not so hard to filter for the 2-3 criteria you actually care about.

oh nice. If this trend continues, they will be by 4 million tommorrow and 20 million next week and by summer every human on earth will have an account.

how they fool the AI while keeping it invisible to the human eye

My guess is that AI companies will try to scrape as much as possible without a human ever looking at the data.
