Well only because there is no global justice - other countries should be ashamed. Only one more global super power now to start their own war as clearly there are zero consequences except statements..

By now people should realise AI has no context at all and is actually clueless.

The world is run by a "gentlemen's club" of sorts, it seems. There are no teeth nor any objectivity when it comes to one of the gentlemen (or two or three of them) who are out of order themselves.

ERP migrations seem to be terrible news. Wonder if there are amazing success stories and how they got it right. Look at that Oracle one in the UK with the municipality that was bankrupted.

Technology is being used to obscure and sway public opinion This is merely one example, so what it was used for is really not relevant at all. What is relevant though is that we have long seen how bots can drum up

Yes that's a good point. The science they mentioned was really it was less effort to hold in bed and turn pages, and has no bright blue back light. That was the gist of it. The point was it does not need to be plugged in for quite long periods as it has a battery that runs for weeks.

Once the power is off for extended periods, water ceases to be pumped and treated, sewerage blocks, food deliveries stop, communications break down, petrol stations can't pump fuel, and that all tends to migrate towards demonstrations and food rioting. That becomes more important than reading.

What I meant was, it will read fine for a month without needing any charging. So will work fine without any power. But if your power is off for two weeks you're going to have street riots and food issues second to none. Reading won't be anyone's concern.

We had rolling blackouts for months with 4 hours on and then off all day long — it would have to be off a full month before I ran out of battery. There would be way bigger issues to worry about than reading after a week plus of zero power ;-)

True, but it has a battery gauge, and once a month is not often. Many use phones happily that must be charged daily.
