- Comment on Devastated PC builder orders DDR5 RAM from Amazon, receives DDR2 and some weights — counterfeit 32GB kit a worrying sign of rising return and sales fraud 30 minutes ago:
It wasn’t technology, but i ordered a new mad lib style book for my kid from Amazon. The book arrived with cellophane around it and a nice label that clearly said new. Once opened, it was very obvious the book was used, since the last kid had already filled out the whole damn thing including his name and address inside the cover.
I’m not mad at the kid, although his parents are probably bad people for returning the book at that point. I am livid that Amazon didn’t flip to any random page in the book too determine if the book was used or not.
Fuck Amazon.

I used the day to decorate my reusable tree with sentimental ornaments I’ve been collecting my whole life. My kid did about half the work, holiday music was played for ambiance.

If you are a large corporation or government, you’d have the resources to do exactly that. I keep hearing about European governments moving to Linux. And why wouldn’t you? Screw perpetual licensing.

- Comment on Google pulls the plug on first and second gen Nest Thermostats 1 month ago:
My Honeywell one is not Internet connected, but it seems plenty smart. It knows the time and day, is programmable for four different periods each day, can handle all sorts of heating and cooling equipment. It also learns how long it takes to get your house to the right temp, then starts working before then to make it happen when the time arrives.

Counter intuitive, dead people don’t pay bills. You’d think they would ensure alive people who could be saddled with medical debt forever, thus an income stream. If i were a greedy business, I’d do it like that.
