Whenever I do searches now, through ecosia, any Reddit results come up with “we’d like to show you a preview of this content but can’t”.
Im not entirely sure why it happens (it’s not always on a pc with a VPN, so that’s not it), though I assume it’s to do with the API crackdown. It has been highly effective at keeping me the hell off Reddit for literally anything for the past several months.
I mean I used to wear sunglasses at work at my desk because everything in the office was just too damned bright. Same with a restaurant job for about 2 hours of sunset when the light streamed in the windows.
Who cares what people think? Protect your eyes and do whatever you like when entering a store. As long as you can see fine, it doesn’t matter.
This is my go-to as well, never fails. Because a lot of the things people want me to do for them (especially at work in public-facing job) are legitimately things I won’t or don’t want to do.
This is my mom picking my traits in the character creator screen… she was cheap but called it frugal.
Well we want smart so let’s add that, oh but it’s cheaper if we buy the autDHD brand! It’s just as good and half the price!
We want good at something, oh hey look there’s good at everything on sale… fine print says can’t stick with anything, but I’m sure it’ll be fine!
Oh, those two traits are locked in and have unintended interactions like anxiety and depression… well this is going to be a bumpy run but the challenge is half the fun right?
Imagine being a doctor telling a couple their fetus died because of a sonic hedgehog gene mutation, tho. (This does happen)
Like, it won’t matter in another few hundred years, but culture is difficult right now.
Makes me wonder if the romans did meme shit like that. They graffiti shitposted and whatever so…
Luckily nobody asks me what I would name shit because my pets are testament to my complete lack of creativity. 😊
I mean I’m sure that’s the logic or something but…
Man it just feels wrong. Like the sonic hedgehog gene feels wrong. You know?
I thought for sure, for sure this was bullshit. For sure Linux doesn’t have a touch command. What could it possibly do.?
Changing timestamps and creating empty files…
Of course, that makes so much sense. 🤔
Hmm…
Can any of this be weaponized to protect a property?
Can any wireless be…? Ideally without frying anything locally like an EMP… “you mean an emp? No, and EMP!”
Carrier pigeons make an excellent bandwidth benchmark though.
Sneaker networks (flash drives stores in sneakers) are still some of the highest bandwidth out there.
I don’t know anything about it, so hopefully someone else has more experience, but I found this, so I assume the answer is yes.
I had a similar training selling stuff for a remodeling company.
I quit on the second day of training. It felt gross, and I told them I was really uncomfortable with their tactics and that’s 100% why I was quitting…
I also don’t watch tv and go out of my way to avoid ads :) pihole on the network, Plex and physical media for media needs.
I’d rather not have robot bees. I’ve seen hated in the nation (black mirror episode).

I think I might be going on a quest in middle earth…
My local pd sends someone out even if you tell them it was an accident.
This may only be for woman-type people, I don’t know, but the couple times I’ve accidentally called they always sent someone by to talk to me just to make sure I really don’t need them.
Kinda obnoxious, since I would be very unlikely to call the PD even if they were needed (only call the cops if you are ok with the possibility someone innocent will die), but I guess good on them for… being proactive… I guess.
On iOS, 5 quick presses doesn’t call emergency services, it reverts your phone to a pre-login state and gives you emergency options, so you can easily call 911, but it’s not required to use it.
This is super helpful to know if you have biometrics enabled. So cops can’t hold your phone in front of your face to unlock it if you do this.
Try it if you have iOS. 5 presses quick, you’ll feel a vibration to let you know it worked so you can do it from your pocket.
I’ve only used genAI once, to re-write my resume. (And I played with image generation to sort of see what it can do and be a muse for me because I’m aphantasic, but I was wiiiiiildly disappointed.)
It spit out something less good than what I fed into it, hallucinated a ton of skills and experience I don’t have, and it looked like AI slop when it was done. So a lose-lose.
Might be good for people who don’t know things or who can’t write for shit (so your average first year college student, IME) but… honestly it’s garbage if you aren’t average or below already. So I’m not surprised it’s ruining people’s ability to function.
Ai is a tool for dumb people (sorry. not sorry.) to land good jobs that dumb people shouldn’t hold or be hiring for, and that’s about it.
I get why people would want to keep honeybees, I just wish they could understand why some of us with land/small farms/homesteads would rather support local pollinator species instead…
Like sure honey would be nice, but the only way I’d be willing to keep them is if they only have access to enclosed greenhouses, to protect local species, and frankly that’s probably too much work for me. I want the local pollinators to thrive because that’s zero work for me. Plus they actually have a place in the ecosystem.
