/j then you don’t love your mother enough to learn coding and make a mom-proof distro.

/uj oh my god I have ptsd from the one time my parents tried to switch to apple products. It lasted less than a week. Please don’t let them decide to switch to Linux and ask me things.

Well he is part Chihuahua…

My smallest dog is probably the smartest, and he not only understands “covering means warmth” but he also has a favorite throw blanket. Even when they’ve been freshly washed he prefers the flour tortilla patterned blanket, as it’s the warmest.

And when it gets warmer overnight, he will switch to a cooler blanket.

Haven’t managed to train him to put his unused blankets away, he just leaves them wherever he dragged it to last.

YOU’RE STEALING OUR TRASH! REEEEEEEEE!

If you clip a healthy plant without asking the owner first, you’re a dick. But if I see you do it at a store, no I didn’t. Cause the store made $2,550,000 while I was typing this.

Every single company pouring money into the incinerator is positive they’ll be the one to crack actually useful AI or even actual GAI.

Corvids evolved beyond the need for physical form.

All that remains are echoes.

I can remind all the Star Trek fans that the episode Sub Rosa exists.

And to all the anime fans, I’m so sorry to do this to you…

“Ed… Ward…?”

Oh don’t worry, they still are.

Just not domestically.

That and they have way more free time to play endless hours of that game…

Oooh, nice interrobang.

“Truth is denied those who refuse to seek it with both eyes wide”

I sent this to some friends with my own added text of “Russia: doing a genocide. Israel: totally a-ok, no genocide here, carry on”

One of the people surprised me with a “how can you possibly think Russia isn’t trying to genocide Ukraine” and was completely flabbergasted that I was actually suggesting that Israel fucking is.

Even if that’s the way you think, I thought my sarcasm was perfectly clear and would be obvious to them what my stance is…

You think you know some people.

Step 1: block archiebot

Step 2: enjoy about 75% reduced spam

Well that took a sharp turn…

“Slow, or quick?”

Even when nobody mentions you, you still show up to let everyone know…

My wife is super bad at not volunteering information.

She’s partially deaf and a few other issues that make phone conversations hard, so she often asks me to sit in and listen to explain anything she didn’t catch, and make sure she heard everything correctly.

I’m often making the neck cut “stop talking/mute mic” motion to get her to stop saying things the other people don’t need to hear.

For instance, she quit a previous job over an employee basically stalking her while she was on the property, and screaming in her face over any imagined sleight. This employee was a problem with others as well, but who you know is more important than how you work in some places so nothing was ever done.

The other places she interviews with don’t need the whole back story of why she quit. “Safety concerns” is completely correct, and leaves out the possibility that the new job might think you don’t work well with others. She does. The other guy didn’t.

So every time she starts telling the potential employer about it, I cut her off to remind her of that.

I’m very much the “ALL my information is need to know and you don’t need to know” kind of person when it comes to things like that, and she just kind of vomits words all over the place when she feels uncomfortable.

surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?

… Right?

I see their junk at every thrift store and flea market in Ohio.

I legitimately thought they went out of business.

It’ll just be more gun control for the poor.

There are a lot of things the government is perfectly happy to let you own as long as you can pay the extra fees and permits.
