- Comment on Does a tiny motion tracking mouse thing exist at all? 2 days ago:
Honestly just get a new mouse and consider this a lesson to be a bit more careful next time. The amount of effort to fix your current mouse isn’t worth your time

- Comment on Does Google scan yt videos to know what products appear in them? 1 week ago:
Fingerprinting. If they don’t have a cookie, they’ll link other information that they have to figure out with pretty decent accuracy who you are

- Comment on Are there any non capitalistic technology companies still around? 5 weeks ago:
If I ask my manager or my director a question or challenge their thought process I get called into a 1 on 1 meeting where I’m told I’m a great asset to the team but me asking questions of them in a team setting sets a bad example
This isn’t on you. If you manager’s skin is so thin that they can’t take some critical thinking thrown at them, then they shouldn’t be a manager. Though if you’re doing it all the time it’s probably very annoying. If they’re doing some self-destructive braindead company decisions, then just roll your eyes and don’t say anything while waiting for their comeuppance to bite them in the ass. You don’t have to kiss the ring but you don’t have to be a nuisance either.
So I guess my question if any is are there still companies that exist in the USA or outside that still give a fuck about what they’re doing and not just inflate that companies value so it can be sold or keep the stock price going up.
Maybe a small business with decent core values. They are very rare though, and are liable to be eaten alive by a change in management. So basically no.
- Comment on What’s the difference between pansexuality and bisexuality? 5 weeks ago:
Using labels for attraction and gender is a way to bring people closer together and share communities and issues. It’s limited to dating, though obviously it helps to find people who fit each other’s attraction. “Oh you’re pan? That’s awesome, I’m gay and this is my boyfriend!” / “I heard Stacy is single, let’s hook her up with Jane, tee hee” / “Does anyone know where I can find a gender-neutral restroom at the airport?”
- Comment on In a thousand years, will historians regard today as the digital dark ages? 5 weeks ago:

- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 4 months ago:
