  • You’re giving me flashbacks to the online training my work makes me do every year.

    I almost failed the first of 7 courses because I made the mistake of trying to do actual work while listening to the training, and didn’t realize there was a 5 minute timer for inactivity on the video player. And no, there was no additional time provided to complete the training. It was mandatory but essentially had to be done on your own time.

    Did not have an identified serial killer until 1903. Both of these killers were white and killed white victims.

    I don’t think the police were really looking into crimes against black people in South Africa at the time. It’s entirely possible there were several serial killers that targeted non-white victims to avoid detection.


  • Wait, is it the same Adin that shot his Cybertruck and then got mad because he broke the door he was shooting at?

    I don’t know what confuses me more. The fact that he’s somehow dumb enough to do that, yet also capable of breathing and speech at the same time. Or that he probably has more money than I ever will because he’s that stupid.

    I want to reallocate my stat points.




  • Microsoft has a terrible track record with hardware.

    About the only hardware they’ve ever sold that didn’t crap the bed was the Xbox, Xbox one, and Xbox series whatever the fuck.

    The 360 would cook itself, instead of fixing it, they added red LEDs to tell you it was fucked. The windows phones were unresponsive and unimpressive garbage, and every tablet they’ve made has been mired in various hardware and screen issues.

    It’s almost like a software company that has a business model that depends on selling people regular updates, can’t get its head around the idea that hardware should just work for the task it’s designed to do. They want you to buy a new tablet every year or two, because it makes them money. They don’t really care if the battery is going to cook itself in 5 years, when the plan is you’ll buy a new device in 2 years, because you really need to edit PowerPoint™ presentations while on the train and with a touchscreen.

    Calling chatGPT an other is a level of tech worship I’ve never seen before.

    It has no capacity for understanding or thought. It’s a fancy predictive text generator. Yes it’s cool, but at the end of the day it does the same thing as my phone’s keyboard, just for longer and with better grammar.
