However, Wikipedia editors consider Media Bias/Fact Check as “generally unreliable”, recommending against its use for what some see as breaking Wikipedia’s neutral point of view.

Or as Dijkstra puts it: “asking whether a machine can think is as dumb as asking if a submarine can swim”.
Alan Turing puts it similarly, the question is nonsense. However, if you define “machine” and “thinking”, and redefine the question to mean: is machine thinking differentiable from human thinking; you can answer affirmatively, theoretically (rough paraphrasing). Though the current evidence suggests otherwise (e.g. AI learning from other AI drifts toward nonsense).
For more, see: Computing Machinery and Intelligence, and Turing’s original paper (which goes into the Imitation Game).
As to how rationales go, this is the clearest.
I hate it.
Like, say, slow down an older phone so one has to buy a new faster phone? Source
A registration system where only registered parts are allowed, so no clean room (software engineering) third-party manufacturing? Every single part has to be registered with the original device manufacturer? This seems like a detour around right to repair.
This would be seriously useful, what are the impeccable primary sources?
For some: “The uploader has not made this video available in your country”
However, there is also this 14 minute video from a few years ago: Investigation: Thousands of trees illegally felled to build IKEA’s flat pack empire.
Do a search for “unexpected acceleration”, there are some serious surprises in the gas/hybrid vehicles in both drive and reverse.
Edit: This is not to imply all gas/hybrid cars are vulnerable, but it may be well-worth the time to check the vehicle brand/model/year of interest. A more specific search term is: brand model year “sudden unexpected acceleration”
In 2016, HDDs were more reliable (MTBF).
In 2022, for the first 5 years, SSDs are looking more reliable. With more of a constant failure rate (1%/yr), than the increasing failure rate of HDDs after 5 years.
(Caveat: not just bit rot, but general failure data.)
In addition to traditional answers (Plato, Solipsism, Descartes, …) this question is also the next-to-last step of coming of age: the realization that other people have minds, feelings, reasons, memories, and existences as complex, varied, and real as your own.
Though, rather excitingly, this does not reduce the questions.
If you’re not spending some money then you’re not the customer, you’re the product.
Would like to argue with you. However, supporting these projects directly, if you can afford to, is something of a personal responsibility.
Huh, that’s so, it was there last January. It used to follow this paragraph (still there today anyway), which contains a similar criticism with citation:
So if those are considered fact-based, there’s no need to delve further.
