I know a guy who just throws it out.

I eat crust, but I never thought to include crust in my next slices activities.

I vaguely remember talk about companies like Google having software that fixes/writes code and that was ages before LLMs.

All of this existed (except the bit about nazi coins) already. There’s a legitimate use for crypto, to support something you use and (probably) enjoy, and you want them to remove it to set a good example?

Well stop it

That might be true, but in this post you say you were doing it only a year ago and still fight the urge to shoplift so it’s probably still worth looking into.

Mostly. Their transcription getting the wrong words are more of the issue.

They replaced the “M365” app icon with “M365 copilot” and the copilot icon on android the other day. I Uninstalled it.

It’s nice to be able to use copilot in some of these apps, it is shit to be forced to have it everywhere.

Have you never been on the internet?

For decades I’ve spent too much time here. The internet is not real life. With 8 billion people, it’s incredibly easy to find a few hundred assholes at a time, they tend to find each other online. You had maybe a dozen people around you total in the moment.

Besides, correcting grammar on the internet is basically a meme coming from the days of forums. Sometimes even then, people are genuinely just trying to help. It’s not that I’m being naive or trying to say most people are good people (though there’s an argument for that), but I’m saying most people don’t care enough about each other to think about something like this for more than a few minutes. The only new thing is that people keep recording shit now and posting it online, which sometimes goes viral. If that didn’t happen then you’re good.

Look at this post if you want to consider the internet, you have 38 upvotes and 2 downvotes and several people offering advice in the comments. MOST people just don’t really care enough to judge you for this.

I will concede that from what I’ve experienced jobs where you’re flipping burgers (McDonalds, Burger King, places like that) you can have a lot more young people working and it can sometimes feel like high school again, but it’s usually just their own drama.

I promise you they’re not. Look at it with the roles reversed, would you be sitting there long after the shift thinking “Ha, that was so stupid, how could they not figure that out?” or would you have thought “huh” in the moment and moved on with your life? Maybe even felt some empathy for them.

Plus, they asked you, so they didn’t know either. There are some people who never grow up after school, but the vast majority of people are just living their life. The people who haven’t? We don’t care what they think.

If you avoided Twitter, why would you think you’d like its alternative?

It’s just a microblog site. Depending on what you’re interested in, it can be good for news, social movements, updates from companies (i followed game devs and would see patch notes and things), keeping up with celebrities or content creators, following topics or hobbies you’re interested in (like you might here), or like when nearly everyone was on Twitter - just seeing what trending things people are talking about. If something is going on, like the Mike tyson Jake Paul fight, seeing everyone’s takes on it, jokes, memes, can be fun for people or make them feel connected.

Nope. His major companies rely on government funding and regulation, and now he’s going to be whatever it was called for Trump. A cool 44 billion to actually control parts of government?

Kind of. If anybody signs up for that premium lite they’re fools.

I’m always concerned about google maps because the alternatives suck, but google is making their services awful, one by one. I’m waiting for the day that google maps becomes terrible too. I do have openstreetmaps (using organic maps on android) and I fixed a few things about my local area there but it doesn’t have some of the features I’d like and it doesn’t seem like they have plans to add them.

Just as an example, business reviews. I can use yelp but it is nice that it’s right there. Also, the user submitted things like speed traps, accidents, etc.

Yep, one shape is paid for, the other shape is not (I forget, circles or squares), and to actually see the non paying businesses you have to zoom way in now.

They say it doesn’t affect search

Right, HR is there to protect the company. Your manager is (almost always) not the company. So if the manager is doing something fucky, that’s what HR is for.

Side tangent, but I wish people would recognize that more. You didn’t disprove something by providing ANOTHER fact.

How is it not related?
