That was me. Had a nice career, benefits, 401k etc. I quit in part because the company is eviI. Now I’m in debt, my body aches from my new low-paying physically demanding job. But I don’t have the bIood of chiIdren on my hands so I’ll manage.

- Comment on RAM is so expensive that stores are selling it at market prices 4 days ago:
I’ll never forget the time someone in my neighborhood found out one of the local PC shops had a deal on 8MB of RAM for like 100 bucks. That’s not a typo kiddies 8 Megabytes. We were so excited, a bunch of us piled into one car and rushed over there before they sold out!

I have and continue to move around a lot. Many banks don’t have physical locations outside of their region. I continue to bank with them though if they’re good otherwise.
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 2 weeks ago:
I had one bank like that but when I called them they were able to disable the app and use text/email instead. The catch was that if I ever opened the app again it was re-enabled.

- Comment on The Future of Advertising Is AI Generated Ads That Are Directly Personalized to You 3 weeks ago:
Naa this is from the documentary “Idiocracy”. You should watch it. There are a lot of accurate predictions even though it’s kind of old now.
- Comment on I spent 18 months training generative AI – here’s what I learned 3 weeks ago:
I did the same shit for what sounds like the same company. It was just as chaotic for me as this article describes. Nobody there seemed to have been there more than a year. Most were only a month or two in.
I actually loved the job and the flexibility. I thought it wouldn’t happen to me because my quality of work was so good. I even got promoted. Then a week after being promoted I got removed like everyone else. The reason they have was “low quality”, yet my numbers were excellent. I argued, why would I be promoted if I was going poorly? Then they ghosted me.
It takes intelligent people to train a chatbot to be intelligent, but the billionaires want cheap labor to do this.

- Comment on How can a US state block porn? 4 weeks ago:
Porn sites don’t really want to comply with the ID laws. They’re doing just enough to not get fined by the Land of the Free. They want you to use a VPN so they can continue to have your business without dealing with the ID bullshit. If your IP is not in a bible state they have no reason to believe that they must comply.
