Yes, and milk was the singular reason they were able to. Turns out those Got Milk commercials had it right all along

The future is HERE. If it laughs when you take your cock out then it's a 1:1 simulation

90s laugh track

Tech brands are forcing AI into your gadgets—whether you asked for it or not (arstechnica.com)

Earlier this year, Microsoft added a new key to Windows keyboards for the first time since 1994. Before the news dropped, your mind might’ve raced with the possibilities and potential usefulness of a new addition. However, the button ended up being a Copilot launcher button that doesn’t even work in an innovative way....

At the time the cloud stuff was first being talked about, I worked a a large tech company (one of the top 10 largest). I remember being told by managers and above how important it was and how we should start thinking about how to integrate it into every facet of our products and workplace. The CEO railed on this as well, tying KPIs to it at all levels of the business. This company makes all kinds products in the realm of hardware and software. Everyone went absolutely apeshit integrating everywhere, including A LOT of places it didn't belong

Tesla’s in its flop era (www.theverge.com)

When Tesla releases its first quarter earnings this afternoon, the company’s CEO Elon Musk will field the usual questions about new products, new factories, and progress toward its futuristic vision of self-driving cars and robot workers. But Musk will also face increasingly urgent questions about its current state of affairs...

I'm honestly shocked. Who could have predicted? 😲

What's it like in other countries for business owners? Because in the US, if you own a business (even a small one where you are the only employee) and try to do your taxes on your own, may god have mercy on your soul. Even doing it through an accountant is a total pain in the ass

metallic_substance ,

Yeah, in the US it was 'Faces of Death' as well. I remember the advertisements. Never saw it, but I saw plenty of horrific shit on rotten.com as a teen

Please just stop posting. I have you tagged because I've noticed a consistent trend of bad/trolly takes from you. If you're expressing your genuine opinions, that's incredibly sad. If you're just being an asshole, then fuck off forever

I did say "please." 😉

Oh! Hey! I found that block feature you mentioned. Bye idiot.

metallic_substance ,

This guy posts waaaay too much around here. Practically all he does is argue his ignorant opinions. I've considered blocking him, but sometimes he writes something so unbelievably dumb that it makes me laugh

metallic_substance ,

Not you, the guy you were replying to. I can see why you might have thought I meant you by the way I wrote that. Should have been more clear. My bad

metallic_substance ,

Well, there's a lot the article doesn't address. I can say this with complete confidence, even as someone who hasn't read the article

Edit: don't freak out, I eventually did read the whole article. Every word. And I was right.

Just 137 crypto miners use 2.3% of total U.S. power — government now requiring commercial miners to report energy consumption (www.tomshardware.com)

Just 137 crypto miners use 2.3% of total U.S. power — government now requiring commercial miners to report energy consumption::The U.S Energy Information Administration is now requiring large-scale cryptomining operations to report their energy consumption. Inevitably this will bring about new regulations that will restrict...

Wow. No kidding. I lost a very close friend who got obsessed with the "get rich quick" aspect of crypto, and these losers sound just like he did. Granted, there were a multitude of other reasons I stopped talking to him, but holy fuck

metallic_substance ,

Same reason you can't buy a new small pickup truck. They don't make them because the mass market isn't there

metallic_substance ,

Devil's advocate here. The whole point of having the wish-giver be a sentient being is to filter bullshit loopholes like that. I like the idea of a highly moderate genie that takes his job seriously

Why the hell is it written as "happy end" in the comic? Nobody calls it anything but a "happy ending." Is this some sort of cultural difference I'm not aware of?
