The taint of marketing.

If you’ve made it this far in life without getting sucked into a cult or MLM, thank a cynic

(the dream) Microsoft gives in to customer demands. Windows 12 will have no AI, won't even require an internet connection, will look like Windows 3.11, Microsoft Teams is canceled, and there's just one SKU.

One of my cats invented a game where she bats around something on top of big sheet of cardboard and tries to keep it there. She loses if the item is knocked off the cardboard.

Imagine being such a pathetic failed company the only way you can get people to use your AI is to install it on their desktop comptuers without their authorization or consent.

Lost track of what I was doing at work because a dumb question was asked and the dumb was apparently contagious and now I can't think any more.

This is your periodic reminder that the only success google has had in the past five years is that they somehow managed to keep YouTube alive. Other than that, Google is a failed company.

This website is free.

DoorDash driver that let me know the straw was in the bag. Whether he actively made sure the straw was there, was relaying what the restaurant said, or just didn't want me to break it, I certainly appreciate it and adjusted the tip accordingly. My only regret is that he can't be rated 6 stars.

Never forget what they took away from you:

Good news! Google is going to use AI to accidentally leak all your saved passwords in Chrome.

Sit down mexican restaurant: decent food at a good price, and you're in and out in under 20 minutes. best sweet tea on the planet. Typical fast food drive through: 20 minutes idling in your car for disgusting food that costs the same as a sit down mexican restaurant. slime in the ice machine.

GenAI kicks puppies for no reason at all.

unable to watch super bowl but I can still enjoy a soup bowl sundae

fucking tragic that Fred Schneider of the B-52s has never headlined a Dracula movie

Also found another co-worker’s nickname is Daisy cos some daisy’s here and some daisy’s not. People are okay really.

Well, I've got my lunchtime viewing for the next couple of months set.

Why do I get the feeling we're about to find out that all of the Fortune 500 CEOs have been outsourcing their decisions to AI or The Algorithm for the past 15 years?

Undeclared milk.

I didn't order the carrot cake. It's not what I wanted, but apparently it is what I needed.

Okay I'll admit I burst out loud laughing at this one

e-readers are just literary devices

Sometimes I go to plus.google.com to remind google that even with the immense power Google yielded at the time, they couldn't even force people to user their little pet project. All the crappy GenAI they're cramming down our throats is the new Google+.

Rats are disgusting(ly cute).

What is this "AI winter" everyone keeps talking about? Should I be worried? I just sank my life savings into AI startups.

When we're younger, we look at older people being excited about boring things, but then when you get older, you end up excited about those same boring things, and that's okay. That new string trimmer or washing machine help you make your own little part of the world a little more pleasant.

It's 2025 and WordPerfect's killer feature is still Reveal Codes.

Alien: Hey you know that species that sent nudes to space? The ones with the whales? Alien Two: The dipshits who think numbers can be "divided" and have this 'prime number' obsession? Alien One: They got renewed for another season. All aliens, hooting, hollering: NUMBERS ARE 'REAL' I'M DYING HERE!

Day 120 in the Ska Mines. Morale is abysmal, but the boss keeps telling us to pick it up
