  • Google Assistant arrives on the iPad, but still isn't going to replace Siri soon

    While I like my Apple products, Siri is THE WORST thing about them! 90% of the time I call her a dumb b***** because never a correct answer not even close unless it is a SIMPLE thing like a reminder or a measurement conversion, I can ask the same questions that Siri can't get to the google app and EVERYTIME I get a correct answer!! Plenty of fan kiddos on here badmouthing the google assistant but I've always found it much better than Siri, and that goes for the map application too.
    Facts are "badmouthing"? Google is a spyware company walking the line between legal and illegal, sometimes falling on the illegal side.

    I'd say Apple allow this as a Siri replacement with one catch, before you install this a warning pops up telling you EXACTLY what Google does with your data.

    "WARNING: Google collects your personal data to sell to advertisers."

    This will raise awareness while giving goog an offer they can't refuse.
    So collecting data doesn't improve services at all? It's just to sell to advertisers? And is Google selling my specific personal data to 3rd parties or is it anonymized data that can't be traced back to an individual user?

    YES. Google makes over %80 of its profits selling your data to advertisers. Don't kid yourself, goog isn't a charity nor do they have morals.

    What data does Google sell? Can you give any example or it is just not knowing their business model?

  • Apple sticking with climate change fight despite Trump administration regulation loosening...

    But you can start showing the data that disproves that CO2 is a greenhouse gas and that it doesn't makes temperature grow.
    A lot of absdolutely debunked denialist nonsense

    So no, you don't have any data, you only regurgugate the same old denialist bullshit that has been debunked for decades.

    The funny thing is that the graphs you show doesn't prove what you say, just the contrary. As you said, denialists like you are completely full of shit.

    [quote] Because geologic processes spanning millions of years are responsible for tremendous amounts of variation in global temperatures, an appropriate baseline must necessarily include millions of years of data to account for this variation[/quote]

    Just this quote show what you know about5r science, absolutely nothing.

    Time to move on.

    When even the DoD and ExxonMobil agree that we should lower Greenhouse emissions, perhaps it is a real problem
    No, CO2 is long proven not to be any kind of “problem” with the climate.
    I would like to know the sources you use to claim that

    Shocking, an advisor for one of the interested parts says that the ruling could be overturned in benefit of the part he is advisor.

    or it could be common sense that you can't change laws on things that happenned 10 years ago
    No law was changed
    Yes it was. If it wasn't the EU would have charged Apple 10 years ago
    No, it really wasn't. The Irish agreement was an exception to the standard corporate tax laws even if it was an allowable one. and while the EU's interpretation of the competition laws to deem them applicable to Apple's tax situation might be new, the laws themselves aren't. 

    There is no agreement between Apple & Ireland.

    No, there was an agreement between Apple and the Irish government about the amount of revenues that could be alocated to Ireland
