- Comment on It Looks Like a School Bathroom Smoke Detector. A Teen Hacker Showed It Could Be an Audio Bug 1 day ago:
There’s a way to detect when students yell “help” or “call 911” from the bathroom that doesn’t require any technology.
You have a staff member within earshot of the bathroom.
- Comment on Change your profile picture to clippy. I'm serious 1 day ago:
But its persistence is a characteristic of today: Installed and enabled by default, providing little to no value while insisting to be used until you removed or disabled it.
Sure it didn’t scape your data and sell it but if they had the ability to, I guarantee they would have.
- Comment on THIS is always the correct response 3 days ago:
Honestly, this is the best response. If you’re out dating to find a partner, it doesn’t make sense to stay friends with someone you were interested in, unless you have other interests.
- Comment on stupid sexy apples 4 days ago:
You might have a superpower.
A LOT of honey in grocery stores are actually syrup but due to capitalism, there really is no real way to tell for sure.
If you are allergic, but won’t die, from having honey, you might be able to make a guide for those of us that actually want real honey but have trouble trusting asshole companies.
- Comment on Charging to tour rental properties... 4 days ago:
Create a trust instead.
Contact an attorney to draft a trust where you all share equity at an amount you all agree to. The terms of the trust should indicate how someone sells their interest and what happens upon default, etc.
The trust buys the property and owns it. Ownership is managed through the trust.
The hardest part is qualifying for a loan. You’re essentially operating as a business and most home loans are designed for people and couples.

It has a chip. You insert it.

Sadist here. You’re right.
- Comment on When will we have reached enough productivity? 2 weeks ago:
I’m agree with the consequence but not the cause. Jack Welsh figured out the cheat code to increase short term stock prices by laying off people, regardless of their actual role or value to the company.
Since then, every company has done it whenever they need a quick boost in numbers.
- Comment on LinkedIn Banned A Trans Woman For Using Her Preferred Name 3 weeks ago:
I absolutely cannot stand the fact that I have to be on LinkedIn to find a job.
It’s so shitty.
Our hiring process is so fucking broken but we live with it because we don’t care to make it better.
- Comment on I dont want to enter a contract when consuming your product.. 3 weeks ago:
Oddly no but I suspect that it’s either due to them not caring enough for one person doing this or them thinking their T&Cs will prevail in court.
For me, I don’t see a loss. Either my contract doesn’t hold up, which means that I only lose time and money or it does hold up in which case I lose time and they (and every other company that has clauses where you accept terms by continuing services) loses their contract terms.
If it ever came to it, I would bet the company would choose to settle rather than risk a president being set.
- Comment on I dont want to enter a contract when consuming your product.. 3 weeks ago:
Shit like this is rarely enforceable but in order to find out, you need to have money.
What I like to do is clap back and send them my own terms and conditions, with the stipulation that if they don’t write back, then they are accepting them.

This is the kind of brat I can get behind. 😏
- Comment on So me 4 weeks ago:
We miss the sign because we’re used to tapping at our normal store a certain way and your way is different. Our normal store doesn’t need a sign because it’s obvious.
I’m guessing your terminal uses the “tap the corner” method and not the screen method. If I see a sign, it’s often the corner. I’ve never seen a sign that points to the screen.
- Comment on Anon gets philosophical 4 weeks ago:
I think it depends on your D/s spectrum.
As a Dom, I’d humiliate him.
But then again, BDSM relationships require continual respect.
Damn this is a hard one.
- Comment on what 4 weeks ago:
Some sellers are delusional and think their house is special and that it will sell for more than they list, even expect it.
There have been times where I made an offer and the seller countered and based on their contingencies, I got the vibe that they were going to be an asshole through closing.
One seller even threatened to sue even though I was fully within my rights to walk away. My response to my agent was “tell them to serve me papers.”
Never heard from them again.
- Comment on What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol 4 weeks ago:
Not to defend this practice but my guess is that the firmware was released before Thanksgiving, but the owner didn’t turn on the grill until Thanksgiving, which is when the grill picked up the firmware.
Guy is still an idiot for buying a device that REQUIRES Internet access.

- Comment on Tractor eggs 5 weeks ago:
Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

Airplanes reproduce like salmon where they spray their sperm in the air so that receptive female planes absorb it through their skin.
That’s what chemtrails are.

- Comment on AGI achieved 🤖 1 month ago:
Adding to this, each word and words around it are given a statistical percentage. In other words, what are the odds that word 1 and word 2 follow each other? You scale that out for each word in a sentence and you can see that LLMs are just huge math equations that put words together based on their statistical probability.
This is key because, I can’t emphasize this enough, AI does not think. We (humans) anamorphize them, giving them human characteristics when they are little more than number crunchers.
