- Comment on A courts reporter wrote about a few trials. Then an AI decided he was actually the culprit. 1 month ago:
If this were some fiction plot, Copilot reasoned the plot twist, and ran with it. Instead of the butler, the writer did it. To the computer, these are about the same.
- Comment on The Garden of Eden was based on The Galápagos Islands. 5 months ago:
Arthur Dent?

Silly MedPiggy,
Taxbreaks are for Billionaires. - Comment on Avast fined $16.5 million for ‘privacy’ software that actually sold users’ browsing data 8 months ago:
I wonder what other uses there are to sell data that is not for advertising? My second thought goes to what is in place to stop a middleman from saying that they would not sell information for advertising purposes, but selling the data for “quality control of data acquisition” purposes. If you are getting a service for free, you are the product.
- Comment on How many times will I tell you? 8 months ago:
My partner and I have separate bathrooms. It saves bottlenecks and conflicts, and is worth it to us, even in our small house. We keep our own rooms clean, enforcing the “I am an adult” rule, you make a mess, you clean it up. Piss splash is gross to clean up. I don’t make an extra mess if I do not need to.
- Comment on Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025 8 months ago:
No Nvidia for me.
- Comment on Banana for scale 9 months ago:
You make that sound like a bad thing.
- Comment on Does anyone wish they could go back to the beginning of schooling and re-live their education/school experience from the start? 10 months ago:
I was never really a child. It was hardwired into me. Life is far better now.
- Comment on If only it was like that 10 months ago:
-40°C and -40°F is where I take the kiddos outside with a cup of boiling water and let them make snow.
- Comment on If only it was like that 10 months ago:
I have lived in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Iowa. We get the northern winds from Alberta. It sometimes gets kinda cold, Aay
- Comment on Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid? 10 months ago:
It is old money, and not printed anymore. $1000 bills do exist, however.
- Comment on 23andMe confirms hackers stole ancestry data on 6.9 million users 11 months ago:
Have any of your blood relatives had any diseases that have a genetic component? Cancer? Heart disease? Yeah, we don’t cover that, it’s as clear as day, in the fine print, on page 13,131 of indexed addendum information. Additionally, you knowingly had this information from a DNA test, which constitutes fraud, making your policy null and void. Thank you for your business.
- Comment on You guys need to stop 11 months ago:
1:30 to 3:30 is prime drunk driver time, in my area. This was when I was getting off work (11am to 3am shift). I hated that drive home. I drove a manual until the automatics’ fuel efficiency outweighed the cost of the automatics. I am an A-> B driver.
- Comment on YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers 1 year ago:
I quit YouTube because the ads were overwhelming, and quality content is so rare.
- Comment on [What if scenario] What if all commercial institutions suddenly decided they no longer intend to acknowledge religious events such as Christmas? 1 year ago:
Without the “on the seventh day, he rested” adage, I would not get days off. I had this pulled on me by religious bosses to force me to give up my only day off. They rejoiced when I found God.
I will never work for religious nuts again.
- Comment on Not even the ghost of obsolescence can coerce users onto Windows 11 1 year ago:
We will die eventually anyway. The real question is how much torture are we willing to put up, until then.
- Comment on Immune to marketing 1 year ago:
Immune is overstating it, strongly resistant is more accurate. I hate labeled clothing, or team clothing. It irritates me when my car has a dealer label, and do not blow smoke about how cool I will look, with whatever or wearing whatever. If my vehicle moves from A to B, is reliable, safe, and doesn’t cost an unreasonable amount to operate, I am good. Does anyone else parse ads, to see their actual claims in neutral language? And filter out the puffery filler words?
Make it noise-cancelling, however, and I am very interested. NRR 33+ brings a smile to my face.

I haven’t found the depth of experience and quality depth in most of Lemmy, yet. Lemmy.world is an exception.*
- Comment on Sweden is testing a semi-truck trailer covered in 100 square meters of solar panels 1 year ago:
Solar ditches make more sense.
- Comment on Where are you? Can you move? 1 year ago:
I vary.
My oddest self is working. I operate a lot of automated machinery that are interactive, and many levels of recirculating materials. I have to zone in and become my machinery, feeling the vibrations, heat, smelling, and hearing the manufacturing processes and guiding the settings to keep as optimum as conditions allow. My day can turn very bad in minutes, it is that unforgiving of specs. I don’t like being too public in what I do on the internet, but there are only a few handfuls of who operate at my scale throughout the world/ per my employer.
I can only compare it to a race car driver, or aerialist flyer in the mind/machine joining of sense of space.
