  Gotta start somewhere. It would be enough to rent your own place and get out from under your mother.

  Missed the part where he doesn't have a computer?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is AI Pornifying Asian Women?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My experience has been that they have a tendency to make overly attractive men too. Getting it to generate anyone average nevermind ugly or with deformities (eg scars) is really hard.

  I'm not low income but I do think McDonald's is pretty poor value for the quality. You can usually go someplace with much better food for the same or slightly more now - they're a long way from being 'cheap' food.

  From the same company that intentionally degrades the quality of Google Maps on Firefox.

  Yeah, you're supposed to wait until you actually have a user base to enshittify it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨8 Years later my Steam Link is still getting regular updates⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have proper full continuous deployment infrastructure setup then you can do minor updates of things like dependencies automatically. I'd guess that's what's happening here.

  Our telemetry shows 80% of users never install any add-ons” i.e. the telemetry that any tech savvy person immediately turns off because they don’t want their browser spying on them and about which we have also complained numerous times.

  Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

  Usage numbers are part of how they pay for ongoing support and development though.

  Yeah, "people don't like the racist authoritarian because she's a woman" sure is a hot take.

  Or he could have just said "mundane"

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They quit their jobs. Their ex-employers sued them for training costs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And posting their content on another website improves that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They quit their jobs. Their ex-employers sued them for training costs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don't know why OP posted that shit website instead of the actual source: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/27/business/training-repayment-agreement-debt.html

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They quit their jobs. Their ex-employers sued them for training costs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I would let myself become destitute before I paid that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An £8 sandwich in Starbucks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The parts I like are the attention to detail on the size of the bread being perfectly rectangular, the cheese slices being perfectly equally sized, and the consistently overlapping slices of ham that span the exact length of the bread. Then that all combines to form a shitty looking sandwich. Perfectly optimized sandwich designed by accountants.

  If you use a putty knife (or something similar) you could probably scrape them off mostly intact and reapply them.

  Where they "gloops" or was it asking for about $3.50?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steve Jobs: The difference of stealing yourself vs being stolen from⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I had a former boss who idolized him. Which was... concerning as his employee.

  Yeah, the same email every 5 minutes doesn't look intentional.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is charging electric car at holiday house "theft"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Meh, charge more then. Electricity utilization is typically included with vacation rentals.
