Didn't read the article did you.

I was on a train crossing the border and border patrol came on and asked everyone if they had fruits or veg.

This group ahead of me said "we don't eat that stuff" and then all four laughed. The sad punchline is that he thought he was so clever, but alli saw was 4 obese people not realizing how much they just said about themselves.

I can honestly put up with a lot, especially in a doctor's office. Hell it's the only place I'm okay with something up my ass. I would walk out if my doctor came in with those glasses. I will go and find a new doctor. There is no way I am okay with a personal camera in that exam room.

Our parents. My mom is addicted, spends every spare moment endlessly scrolling. I tried for a while to get her off but you can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped. No shit she spent 10 straight hours on it once. Didn't move at all, she is their ideal consumer.

Didn't they just force it today or something? Not sure if I'd call that a huge commercial success if they're forcing all of their users to use it

That LLM response from the search bar when you were just searching for a file? That's not free, we have to pay for that! If you didn't want it you shouldn't have accidentally triggered it by needing to search for a file. That's on you.

Holy shit 25 fires? It's too bad it took this one to catch him. 1 million seems low for the sheer property value at risk alone, not counting everything else

Right? Now I'm wondering if it was for some bullshit gambling payout.

Yes that would be the joke.

Yeah, I had a town of 15k and 5 miles up the road we had one around 300. They just contracted ours out. 300 peoples' taxes is not a lot, why waste it on police who will what, catch that one kid every once in a while, or have to throw a drunk out of the only bar? Not worth it.

Are you not infotained?

Hey now, back when they cancelled sharing I cancelled my Netflix, and eeeeeveryone else said they were going to as well. Mines still cancelled, apparently others buckled? That's on them.
