Good for them! It always bothers me that CEOs of the big tech companies don't allow their own children access to the internet, phones, games until they're no longer children per se. Clearly, they know the hazards of their product for immature brains. https://www.google.com/search?q=what+CEO's+of+big+Tech+forbid+their+children+access+until+they're+older&oq=what+CEO's+of+big+Tech+forbid+their+children+access+until+they're+older&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRiPAtIBCTE5MDc1ajBqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I looked it up in on a map. I've been to Syracuse so it's possible I've been to Utica but I doubt it.

Not sure how representative it is. Young college students in the rural county they describe and then Charlotte which was Kamala +33 in 2024. Sorry to be a buzz kill.

Unfortunately this is a situation where the broad question is not ‘do we aggressively pursue AI’, it’s do we aggressively pursue AI too, or just let China do it’.

@Rontuner said in Happy Thanksgiving - What's your story?: Had a multi-national Thanksgiving celebration hosted by our daughter, her husband and friends from a beach community in the Dominican Republic. Maybe 25 people up in a house in the hills overlooking the ocean. A little yoga, some guitar music, some pool time, some sun, a little rain and a mix of local foods prepared by a chef. Delightful time meeting their beach family! Got any pics to share???

@Steve-Miller It made my day.
