“never mind, solved it!”

I’ve deleted more videos from my channel than I have showing… Anyways I used to put a lot of time into making really useful videos. I would edit them, be thoughtful, concise, novel information. Then I crapped out a short in like 15 minutes one day, and it got 50,000 views and it’s like… Really? Is this what it’s come to, people can only accept information in 30 second hunks?

No this time they got it, can’t you read the screenshot? It says right there.

That was after his work on the movies

“rethinking” doesn’t mean what you think it does.

I taught the guy who built miniature sets for that movie. I didn’t teach him how to build the sets, I taught him how to do multimedia presentations for hockey arenas.

My perspective is this. It’s being framed with the same level of boogedy boogedy a previous headlines like “Hackers capture passwords by listening to individual keypress sounds”.

No practical fingerprinting could be accomplished with this technique, but it is very distressing that individual tabs seem to have unmitigated control over drive read write.

It’s really not possible for a person to be more clueless, illiterate, incapable of reading a sentence, and on some mind adventure that’s completely disconnected from the reality the rest of us are in.

(I’m talking about you in case you’re wondering, because you’re clearly not a very intelligent human)

That gave me a really good laugh

Keep a hopeful heart, but use the block function liberally.

It’s one of the things few people know exists, and it will make your life much more sane. In fact, people have been here for several years know that there’s a small cadre of toxic users, and once you accidentally catch them in your block net, things calm down here for you.

Don’t block people out of anger, just ask yourself if this person is the type of individual who’s going to contribute to my life in any way? If they anger you are frustrate you, just block them. We don’t know each other, or we’re all just faceless humans here.

He asked her what she wanted to do so he could feed it into chat GPT which would then output a date suggestion.

He basically asked her to give him an AI prompt so it could plan a date instead of him doing it.

Literally my exact story with some Minor details.

Standing at bus stop, arms crossed, staring into distance, 15 minute wait

Watched the fucker fly from across the street, land on my arm, sting me, fly away

As someone that goes back to the early 90s in my career, and who lived through the whole dot com boom… My perspective remains unchanged from decades ago.

Without diminishing the skill it takes to make a quality app, the fundamental truth that I could never get across to people is that an idea, some underlying tech infrastructure and an app are the smallest part of making a business work. The business part is the hard part.

These tools have made it easier than ever for people to run off half cocked and make the same mistake that’s been made for 4 decades. And they appeal to the worst sensibility, the incorrect assumption that if you build it they will come.

It baffles me that people haven’t realized that fast food is the cigarettes of our generation. Or many people actually do get it, but choose cognitive dissonance because yummy.

Fuck dude lol

I mean… so damned true. People going to mcdonalds because they’re seeking (or effectively addicted to) the hyper-engineered food-ingredient-based hot candy… and just delusional about the entire operation and their role in it.

Dunce… makeup has existed for thousands of years

Find the “cash jobs” Group on your local FB and do a few hours of pick-up yard work, etc.

Nobody here was the sunshine :(

One of my most baffling social nights was being invited to poker night at the home of a bunch of Jehovah’s Witnesses. My buddy had married one (that’s a whole different kettle of fish, set that to the side for now lol) and that’s how I came along for card night.

So anyways… there’s no gambling allowed… so the deal was everybody put in $20 dollars and whoever “won” was awarded the trophy. To keep it totally in God’s hands and not humans gambling, the poker game’s River card would mutate all cards with the same value to Wild cards. So no matter how shitty anybody played or what anybody did, the outcome was quasi-random. Then once everybody had all the chips, they were awarded the trophy. The trophy was a 40oz bottle of whiskey. Which Jehovah’s are not allowed to drink. But don’t worry, it was agreed beforehand nobody would actually drink it, it’s a damned trophy for crying out loud!

Also we were not allowed (per JW rules) to be socializing in the first place. Also there was rock music in the background while we played which is not allowed. And the JWs would individually disappear to the laundry room to make their pop-only drinks with whatever (pop only!) products each person brought to the gathering in a zippered gym bag.

I mean. Yeah. It was so fucking weird man.

What do you get if you cross a rhinoceros and an elephant?
