- Including Unix and BSD.

in Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.
I mean, it's trained on internet content, and there's probably a lot of articles that say "Google" and "monopoly" in close proximity.
-a matter of legal and economic interpretation
If there's a possible interpretation that a company is a monopoly, they're a monopoly.
I agree on the merits, but the contrarian in me has to point out that any company is a monopoly through some convoluted interpretation. For example: Logitech has a monopoly on mice and keyboards that work with their proprietary software.
Exactly, it's why I don't buy Logitech anymore!
Wait until AGI!

Wait until the sentient robots!
Sentient robots: Yes.
Wait until biological...
Biologics: Glub, glub. Yes.
Damn, busted
