Can you point me in the direction of how disable truly all of it? I don't want news/ads/recommendations in the start button, bottom bar, icon tray, search results etc.

Cars have gotten bigger externally, but internally it seems storage space is actually going down. My 2014 Nissan Note has a 10% larger storage capacity than a 2023 Renault Espace, even tho the latter is 50cm larger in all three dimensions and is literally called 'spatious'.

Can you point me in the proper direction?

Is there a way to disable the ads, news and recommendations yet? Until then I'm not upgrading.

I am so glad I ditched twitter when Musk took over. Blocking abusive people is a critical function on that cesspool of a social medium.

While bard got some really bad reviews compared to chatgpt, I've honestly found it better with queries chatgpt struggled with. I have two examples:

  1. "Please write a python function that returns an exact solution to pi" Both come up with gregory-leibnitz formula, which of course is an approximation. When challenged that I want an exact solution instead of an approximation, chatgpt apologizes and then returns yet another approximation. Bard correctly claims that that is impossible as pi is an irrational number.
  2. "What can you tell me about a compound called polysac-active in cough syrups". Chatgpt hallucinates something about a company in Indonesia, which seems to have a product that sounds vaguely similar to one of the brands selling that compound. Bard, on the other hand, correctly surmises it's mostly honey and even gives some examples of real products that feature this ingredient.

In general, Bard in general seems one of the few llms that will tell me it doesn't know something or that something is impossible. IMHO that's better than just coming up with a hallucination.
