Will it brick the kid?
you come across headlines nowadays and have no clue this was even a thing people were grifting children about, man..
Jesus Christ it's like the SNL Pongo skit in real life.
Its 2024 and you cannot use a product the way you want to. Can't you just use openAI api as the backend??
Sorry Sally, Geoffrey has to die because a company wanted to make their products utterly dependent on their servers. We'll bury him in the yard next to Gertrude.
I already experienced this with that one small robot a few years ago. It was resurrected a few years later but required a subscription.
That was the beginning of me not caring for subscription based products and being weary of products that relied on servers instead of being locally hosted.
