That’s why my password contains 63, the product of 9 and 7. 9 was tragically killed and eaten by 7, right in front of poor 63 and others. Now 63’s drive to prevent future tragedy is turned up to the nines.

They’re almost as bad as carbon monoxide detectors - their damned beeping gives me a headache and makes me dizzy!

At first I thought it said “snack” and the picture was him eating a bishop - both are funny!

I’m sorry you feel dumb, and you don’t need to - we all have our “whoosh” moments. I only intended to clear the air regarding my long time hero Weird Al.

I think they’re saying people want to cancel ai, not AL - and playing on how in most fonts capital i and lowercase L look the same.

Missed call; it’s a line bouncing off the other line. I guess the visual is supposed to be “didn’t get through”?

Because “strong integrity” in that context just means “tamper resistant user data pipeline.” They don’t give the fuckidiest of fucks about app integrity, privacy, or security; they care that their ads get through to you, and every drop of your personal info and activity data gets though to them.

I think a lot of the time involved is to keep the process quiet, an industrial dishwasher is fast but loud as fuck. I wouldn’t mind being given that choice with a home dishwasher though.

I’m so glad this site is still running!

I don’t have a source but I’ve always heard it as “according to everything we know about aerodynamics bumblebees shouldn’t be able to fly but they do anyway.” People use it as motivation, or to justify ignoring proven science.

"Oh wait, there they go. "

I took this a couple years ago - it was a great accidental find!

I’m glad to see it was ai translation hallucination, I appreciate you and others in the thread providing a much more accurate link.

That said, I wouldn’t be shocked if MS was behind an easily debunked and inflammatory article like this one. Then when they release their actual unpopular plan, people may say “well that’s not that bad compared to what that one article said they were doing.”

They’d just find a bullshit reason to let you go, then break more laws sharing disallowed details about your employment.

Sadly, in the US at least, the regulatory capture is complete. Any company acting like this (blatantly breaking labor laws and ignoring worker rights) knows they’ll pay less than the cost of keeping the water cooler full in the off chance the labor board sends them more than a mildly worded letter.

Edit: I was feeling pretty pessimistic when I wrote this, I didn’t intend it you come across as “don’t try” but I can certainly see how it comes across that way. We should all be holding the companies and the regulatory agencies accountable, and not letting them get away with breaking laws. Enough people making enough noise can’t be swept under the rug.

He doesn’t bite and he doesn’t squeal, he just runs around on his hamster wheel!

While I feel like your post was off topic, it was not kind of me to reply to you with such rudeness, and with the accusation of being ai. I should not allow my annoyance with the prevalence of ai in nearly every aspect of life lately to cause me to be kind to my fellow humans. I’m sorry for my attitude, and thankful that you and others contribute to the fediverse even when I don’t understand or misinterpret it.
