I was honestly surprised when we got the Series. I was pretty convinced that they were done with consoles after the One X|S and that Xbox would become more of a Steam competitor as a brand. It wouldn’t surprise me if the Series ended up being the last console.
Even if we accept your premise, and I am not sure I do, you are still ignoring that they all had female avatars to begin with. So none of them started masc or neutral even if you think the name was.
From what I have seen Anthropic, OpenAI, etc. seem to be running bots that are going around and submitting updates to open source repos with little to no human input.
Siri, Bixby, Majel (Google Assistant), Cortana, Alexa… they are all female names and all had female voices at the beginning. I would say it’s blatant and it has been an ongoing topic of discussion as well.
Handwriting is better for retention if you are good at writing notes. Not everybody can write fast and legibly and still listen to and comprehend the lecture.
You aren’t wrong but I also think people tend to forget just how much of what we grew up on were remakes and rehashes of stuff even from the radio era. Especially the cartoons that we watched as kids, so much of that was just recycled jokes and such with some jokes for the adults of the day thrown in too. Even Star Wars was an homage to the serials of the 30s-50s like Flash Gordon, which itself got an 80s remake (with an excellent soundtrack by Queen). The remakes aren’t new they are just more obvious.
Several of the scenes in 6 were obviously shot on TNG sets. The Engineering scenes are the most painfully obvious as, in some cases, they literally just have a bunch of extras standing in the way of the panels they didn’t change.
There has always been an incongruence around the A where the original point, when it was revealed at the end of four, seems to have been that it was a recommissioned and renamed constitution class that had been recently refitted like the Enterprise was in TMP. But then Shatner came in with five and insisted that it was a brand new ship for some dumbass reason that most people seem to have retconned from the cannon.
I was responding to the second sentence, not the first.
