Banning support chatbots would be a universal boon to humanity. I'm not that old, but I remember it being possible to call literally any company or service directly, with few or no queues, to speak to a human immediately. I suspect many people consider that idea at all to be incomprehensible

I have fond memories of watching so many lost series as a kid. Like Urikupen Kyuujo Tai (ウリクペン救助隊), or like every Dic/Saban show. I had probably around a hundred VHS tapes with recordings too. But parents threw them out at some point I hope Urikupen can be found one day

Open YT, and see Johnny Harris prepping to...? A. Do legitimate criticism of Russia B. Escalate tensions between Scandinavia and Russia C. Do pro-axis WW2 revisionism D. Accidentally radicalize people to believe Putin instead E. All of the above and cashing that military industrial complex check

Was humming along to Balalaika at Perfect Beer Kitchen. And the bartender exclaim "you know nico nico douga?!" Which was pretty funny. Makes me happy to meet people with shared experiences. (They also played Sobakasu by Judy and Mary earlier. Think the regulars were all otaku)

Whenever I hear fellow millennials say Skibidi Toilet is dumb, I just think of how they all played Scatman John on loop growing up. History repeats.

I have memory turned off in chatgpt, and always have had. As well as training data off. Yet it can still tell me personal details across chats. I gave it a random address the other day for example, and today it used that same address in an example.

Now, I don't have a car, because I don't need one. But I wonder if you can charge one large, or a dozen or so UPSes effectively in an electric car when the car battery is full. Just use a charging spot at work, then connect UPS at home when electricity is expensive 🤔

I swear, one day flatpaks will make me switch to windows. It's such unfathomably broken garbage that is just ruining Linux and making it completely unusable. I'd rather pay to see ads

This is why, by the by, we yell about not using discord for a wiki (looking at you FGC). Its perfectly fine to community build, have a place to meet up and play games. It is not an information repository. Get something else, literally now. Likewise, make backup contact points for your friends

Learned how to rip full quality 4k video from Netflix because they nerf resolution to 720p on linux because they're afraid someone will rip their videos. (and many other devices) I assume there's a guide somewhere, if not I should write one

It's kinda funny when someone with right wing opinions tell me they used to be left wing. But then also are completely surprised by any basic left wing analysis. "I've never thought about capital accumulation shifting the power balance" Come ooooooon lol don't pretend like you "left the left"

I have all the Analogue consoles still sealed, and genuinely not for keeping them sealed, was waiting to move, then haven't gotten around to fixing my setup after moving. But now I'm second guessing opening them after someone showed me what they cost on ebay. Especially the Noir and Super NT...

Trump asking rhetorically if Bytedance not selling TikTok would be considered a hostile action by China. Somewhere on my bingocard there is a "US manufactures an excuse to invade China", but if the reason ends up being TikTok... The writing in this timeline man...

Trying to look up comparisons of note taking apps anywhere, and it feels very cultish. "Top 67 new apps of 2023, here's the best", "I'm all in on Y", "Z is the future!", etc. With cryptobro-like thumbnails Every video, article and channel "feels" paid. As if there is personal stake involved. Help

Third time in a year now I've had liberal family members (lifelong labour party supporters) say "I don't understand, it almost seems like China are the good guys compared to the US. What am I missing?" The wish to be sinophobic is so ingrained. But it's still quite surprising to see this half-turn.

Biggest nitpick with Windows is prob. that %appdata% refers to "...\appdata\roaming\" and not actually to "...\appdata\" I know fixing this probably bricks a million scripts, but those should probably be replaced either way. Besides, MS bricks stuff constantly anyway

Was planning to be productive this week, as I have time off work to focus anyway. But I got convinced into finally making good on my promise to play Satisfactory. And I guess productivity is way up, but not in the way I wanted 😭

I really love how the new youtube app has removed the ability to browse and add videos to the queue while you have a video running. Wanna open one of you playlists and add a specific video to your currently watching queue? Nah, can't do that any more. Cool. Not garbo at all.

Apparently bowing while on the phone is a japanese thing. But I always did that unconsciously since I was a kid. I wonder where I learned it. Or maybe other people do too, and I just never thought about it. I guess a slight bow when hiking and meeting someone is normal though... I think?

Walked down some random stairs in Harajuku and met a lady who is/was a fashion/clothes designer for X-Japan since the 80s. (As well as Dir, Luna Sea, D'erlanger, Buck-Tick, An Cafe, Kagrra, etc) That's the third friend of Hide I have completely randomly met in two months, what are the odds lol
