THE PACK IS NOT AMUSED AND THE PACK DOES NOT ALLOW BIGOTRY OF ANY KIND.
- Comment on Indeed, Glassdoor to cut 1,300 jobs amid AI integration, memo shows 1 day ago:
Indeed has been steadily enshitifying for quite some time so this tracks.
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 1 day ago:
Well they wouldn’t if not for that hefty bailout by the American taxpayers that they got back in 2008.
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 1 day ago:
If you’re one of the largest and oldest car manufacturers in the world and the most “innovative” thing you’ve managed to do in the last 20 years is rebrand Buick into a young family brand, then you probably need some good competition.
- Comment on meal 2 days ago:
I can smell that from here and I don’t like it.
- Comment on Ok, I'll pay you the 1995 price 4 days ago:
I don’t know but I’ve been stockpiling canned food in my basement and I bought a portable toilet just in case.
- Comment on Most people's earliest memories are at around 3 or 4 years of age, which correlates with the age kids start asking "why" for everything. Kids start asking why when they become self-aware. 4 days ago:
Somehow I think my baby years were probably less embarrassing than my teenage years.

Howls relentlessly at the moon.
- Comment on Republican Pride 6 days ago:
Fireworks are damned expensive. We didn’t buy any this year because I’m not about to spend $200 to shoot off five fountains.
- Comment on Up to half of the earth's population doesn't have an inner monologue, up to half of the earth has never had a shower thought 1 week ago:
I was today years old when I learned that not many people don’t have an inner monologue. The human body is so fascinating.
Oddly enough, if I don’t take my ADHD meds, I tend to talk to myself out loud a lot because my inner monologue gets kind of “muffled” in the “noise” and I rely on it very heavily to think through.

I imagine being a high school teacher sometimes feels like being Margaret Dumont in a Marx Brothers movie.
- Comment on What Cutting Medicare Will do to Healthcare System 1 week ago:
The proposed cuts to Medicaid might actually push the US healthcare system to the point of collapse. I’m no gambler but I would be willing to bet money that it will put a dozen or more hospitals in my rural red state, many of which are already financially distressed, out of business.
The “big beautiful bill” is a smoldering pile of shit that benefits only rich people and leaves everyone else holding the bag.
- Comment on My reason for wanting HomeAssistant and a locked down VLAN... 1 week ago:
I have a rule that “Nothing will be automated that cannot be manually overridden.”
Well, actually it’s my wife’s rule but it’s a good rule nonetheless. As a result, there’s a big panel full of relays in the basement that is the “last mile” for anything climate control or security related.
There have been a few times when it’s been handy. Like when the exhaust fan isn’t working and I don’t want to debug the ESP32 controller today so I just flip it over to “Manual”.
- Comment on science 1 week ago:
Scratch the beer and the vape, add a single malt scotch, and take my money.
- Comment on addict 1 week ago:
Honestly, you knew it was a child’s birthday party and yet you didn’t bring enough to share? That was pretty inconsiderate.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Highly location dependent. We have useable cell service in our house but Internet over 5G is slow.

Corporate America over here committing piracy en masse.

In my neighborhood you get a choice between coax or nothing.

Ok, @SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com. Chief propagator of moth memes. 😏
But seriously, it’s a naive person who doesn’t understand that every single day, somewhere in the world, the most horrible shit you can imagine is going down at any given moment. That’s just a fact. Our job is to help when we can and deal with it when we can’t. One of the way we have or dealing with it when we can’t is through humor and there’s not a damned thing wrong with that.

My wife can spend all day in the sun and turn a nice shade of brown.
Not me. There is no “tan” for me. It’s either pasty white or lobster with no middle ground whatsoever.
- Comment on The "We Tried" Award 2 weeks ago:
“Well it’s not MY fault they shot some Vietnamese kid in the face and now have nightmares and a paralyzing fear of fireworks. Guess they should have thought about that before getting drafted.”

- Comment on In North Carolina, Exploding Bulbs and Fridges on the Fritz Reveal a Town’s Fraying Electric System 2 weeks ago:
Mismanaged. Subsidizing shortfalls in the general fund using funds from the electric utility.
- Comment on In North Carolina, Exploding Bulbs and Fridges on the Fritz Reveal a Town’s Fraying Electric System 2 weeks ago:
TLDR: The town owns its own electric utility and mismanaged the utility’s funds to the point of leaving the distribution system in severe disrepair.
