Ignoring the main point of the article, there are a lot of people who need help taking their medication. A device that knows for sure whether they've taken their medication, and that will bug them to take it when they haven't, could make a huge difference in their quality of living.

The people who thought data centers bad sides weren't that bad for the environment are the same people who thought Epstein Island was just a nice place for boats to stop for lunch.

They probably will replace the management with AI pretty soon.

I would call a working brake pedal the single most critical safety feature in cars today.

That's my thought. There's nothing more offensive about ranch than using cream cheese.

I used to live in Japan, and from what I could see, Japanese people aren't fundamentally opposed to the concept of sushi with weird ingredients. They simply just don't think it's normal sushi.

Eel sushi already has a Japanese BBQ sauce on it.

trains rule

All I know is that the tunnel snakes rule. I don't know whether a train is technically a tunnel snake or not.

After using Bazzite, I'm convinced that image based distros are the future for end users. Need to install an app? Flatpak. Need to install command line? Homebrew.

It all installs in user space. And Flatpak at least uses an effective sandbox system.

Distros that maintain their own package spaces are duplicating a. lot. of work.

The downside of Flatpak is the disk space usage. But that doesn't matter as much to me as it used to.

Why would people go to the Bermuda Triangle if they just disappear there?

The "absolutely nobody" meme was originally supposed to highlight somebody making an argument for something that obviously nobody had ever felt the need to argue against.

It was usually a very obscure argument about something that nobody else had ever thought about, or the visual version where someone created something that didn't need to be created, or it could be an argument about something that is so obviously true that it is obvious that nobody would ever try arguing against it... And that's it. It doesn't really have any use outside of those two narrow areas.

It barely made sense as a meme in the first place and of course, it was immediately misused by the vast majority of people who used it and just mindlessly tacked it onto anything because it was the popular meme at the time. I was so happy when people stopped using it.

Me, who edits comments over and over until I believe they convey my message correctly.

You, who didn't even double check that your fingers were on the home row, but submitted the comment, regardless.

You know, it's kind of refreshing to think that somebody tried to think of the most horrific sexual perversion imaginable, and could only come up with Waluigi hentai.
