He’s reaching cartoon villain levels now

Can you explain how a car accident lead to this?

Also when only a tiny part of the wheel is in the corner of a square, does it count? What about the motorcycle’s mirror? Apparently it doesn’t most of the time. But sometimes it does.

Also the absolute worst are those “click all the squares that have a <object> in it until they’re all gone” Then when you click on them the image disappears and sometimes you have to wait way too long for another image to finally appear in its place. You know when the images take too long to appear like that it will fail you no matter what, probably because you “took too long” to solve the captcha.

Doesn’t that technically have 1 chance in 7?

In the design committee:

Overpaid Corporate idiot: “make it AI!”

Engineer: “uuh… do you even know what that means?”

Overpaid Corporate idiot: “investors love AI, just do it!”

Engineer: “Ok, sure.”

The old RainbowSix games (pre-Vegas) were absolutely brutal in difficulty. Enemies died in one or two shots, depending on what part you hit. Even a non-mortal wound would cripple them permanently. But the same rules applied to you.

What was it, not even two months ago when they said they “listened” to us and that they wouldn’t go forward with Recall? And we all said they would still roll it in later when the dust had settled? Yup, we were right.

I used to be annoyed by this. I’m running GrapheneOS so I denied Google Photos access to the network but it didn’t stop it from asking every few times I started the app. Sometimes it even ignored my response and tried to connect to the network anyway.

I just uninstalled it and installed Fossify Gallery instead from F-droid. Haven’t looked back since.

They’ll just do it anyway quietly later on

Aaaand… Whatever company hadn’t pulled their assets out of Russia yet are now scrambling to do it.

I meant illegal to force a subscription fee to use something that doesn’t require any external service to function. Also illegal to turn something that someone had already bought to display pictures in his house into an advertising billboard without their consent.

This is why you don’t buy shit that is will not work unless it is unnecessarily connected to the internet.

Wait, they were charging $2 a month to unlock the ability to turn your device into a smart picture frame when idle? Something that doesn’t even require to be online and that you could easily convert an old tablet to do for free?

If you were stupid enough to give your money away for a subscription fee for that, then the “service” being discontinued is the best thing that could have happened to you.

Also this sort of practice should be made illegal.

Carefully dremel a slot in the screw head and use a flat head screwdriver.

Make sure you don’t get any dust into the electronics.

Day 1 after implantation: this is great! I now have photographic memory of everything! Best decision ever.

Day 20: I’ve memorized so much so fast, I’m going to have to go for the next higher up subscription level to unlock more storage.

Day 200: I’m running out of space again. Going for the plus subscription.

Day 600: ran out of storage space again. I can’t afford the next higher subscription. I’m going to have to start deleting unnecessary memories. My brain has lost its natural ability to make and retain memories by itself. I can’t even function on a daily basis without free storage space.

Day 700: I have run out of memories that I’m willing to part away with. I still can’t afford the higher subscription. Luckily there is a cheaper tier. All I have to do is give NeuraLink full access and rights over my memories for marketing and AI training purposes.

Day 900: They have increased the cost of subscription. I can’t afford it. I’m going to lose half of my storage space. I have two days to choose which of my memories to keep. The rest will be no longer accessible to me, but will still be used by Neuralink for their own purposes as they own those memories now.

Day 1200: the chip will no longer be supported next month. I can’t afford the new model. It will be disabled in 30 days.

Day 1235: I have just found this diary. It explains a lot. I only wished it told me what my name is.

I’ve lost count of how many times Microsoft, and many other big tech companies, hindered me from doing something I wanted to do on a device that I own or “security” reasons while it had absolutely nothing to do with security and everything to do with forcing their users to comply with their business model.

You really shouldn’t believe the Corporate bad faith arguments used to justify anti-consumer practices. They are complete bullshit.

So Microsoft wants to force everyone to ditch their perfectly good machines so they can make more money off of selling OEM licenses.

I’m just waiting for Europe to sue their greedy asses for planned obsolescence.

I am baffled by how this “movement” never seems to be running out of gullible people to attempt doing this. Because you know whoever tries it never lasts very long before they get a reality check. How much longer can it last before they run out?

Moo hoo ha ha!

There was a Trump interview from the 90s where he said that if he ever ran for office he would go Republican because they were stupid, gullible and easily manipulated. Sadly I cannot find that interview anymore.

Can’t unsee the goatse
