Remember how Google's Find My Network was supposed to be as good or better than Apple's. We put a tracker in a checked bag. Couldn't track it from once we lost sight till when it was 10 feet from me.

It's a bit odd, but isn't it equivalent to forking and putting up a fork elsewhere?

I guess I don't see the problem.

If you are for Musk being tracked, you should be fine with her being tracked the same way.

I'm for anyone in a private jet being tracked.

So instead of spending X dollars to ensure people have homes, we spend X++ dollars to evict them from their spaces?

He has no power to do anything really. I'm starting to think more socialism makes sense. I kind of want profit limits on certain essential sectors like food, medicine, probably others.

I'm tired of hearing about how company X made 3 billion more this quarter than last year. It's one thing to be profitable and make something, it's another to give it all to the execs and make consumers eat more year after year.

Raising prices to raise profits when you're still profitable is ridiculous and greedy.

I don't see how Biden could fix the situation on his own. It needs a massive change.

I wonder if anyone thinks robots.txt is binding or not ignored by anyone who wants.

Funny how no one claims states rights here.

That only seems to be a Republican talking point.

Please outlaw pet rent. I get a refundable deposit, but pet rent is bullshit.

I thought that people who would eat fish but not other animals were pescatarians.

The Simpsons movie is getting a remake?

You can't. That's not enough money.

Make the lives of your community better instead.

Is this actually the reason it's called this? Like dead serious.

I was told they'd always be there for me. Then my dad passed away a few years ago.

I still miss him.

I want a phone with a built in projector.. and a bigger battery.. and something else I haven't thought of yet.

I miss new features and innovation.

Since we have neither, give me modularization to let me have ^

Do ya remember photobucket? .. Pepperidge Farm remembers.

There is a pizza place. We once went in to order food. There was no food, no menu, no drinks. We stood there and asked for a menu. They looked at us like we were nuts. We turned around and left.

I'll just point out that I have a 20 year old Dell business class color laser printer. Got it off Craigslist a few years ago for 40 bucks. It has Ethernet, with a webui. You can disable the toner chips if you want and only lose toner amount estimates and then use any toner you want. We even got the duplex attachment for it a few years ago.

It is literally at least 3 feet tall and weighs at least 50 lbs.

It literally makes all the lights in my house flick when we turn it on. We once blew a circuit when it turned on.

We lovingly call it the Old Ding Dong Printer.

As long as it works, why would I ever replace it? Products have gone downhill.

Makes me miss a time where they couldn't tell if ads were actually watched or not.

Sooner or later, ad blockers should just simulate the ad being played (in the background) with the real content going in the foreground to act as if the ad was watched.

Kind of like going to the bathroom during commercials.

Then again I wish we had a real alternative to YouTube. (Don't point me to the fediverse video stuff ... that's not what I mean.) There is no real competition for a place to freely upload videos ... or on the other side find all that content. No one wants to scale enough to compete. (Very few probably could considering the amount of new content per minute).

If only there was real competition, then YouTube would have to fight over our attention/usage by lowering ad count.

No competition means worse for all.

I mean they do, but that doesn't mean a message platform can't platform lock itself.

The ISP isn't discriminating.. that's net neutrality.

I think you might be a bit confused.

That can't remove a directory.

I appreciate the exact price of $2.68.

Not that interesting, but I was walking in the dark one night to get a glass of water. I made it down the stairs and turned towards the kitchen to step on something wet and slimy feeling. I touched it with my hand just to figure out my cat had decided to throw up there.

Actually both happen: low paying jobs lead to being below the poverty line and therefore eligible for welfare.

It's not great; especially when companies like Walmart cash in on this by paying less and telling employees to apply for welfare.

Imagine the regex needed to highlight code with that extra single quote.

You have duplicate communities, posts, etc.

It's hard to find communities.

If you have a car: a fast charger for your phone.

It's amazing to me how many use a built-in USB that barely charges the thing.

Doing this would lose a sense of work vs home time for people. I have some coworkers on the other side of the world, I look at their time and know they shouldn't be online anymore. I tell them things like "Go be with your family" or "Must be sleepy considering how late it is for you".

It gives me a sense of humanity to know if it's 8pm their time, it's way too late for them to be working. I'm sure I could adjust if we all used UTC but it would be so stupid to change.

Also imagine hours for businesses all sounding weird as heck lol.

Then again does the SCOTUS know how they work?

Let's start taxing them too

I am not qualified to have a technical discussion on this matter.

However: big boat hurts big bridge; makes sense to me.

Rust proofing. Wasn't that something dealers would add in as a scam for a few bucks?

Once again, there is a Seinfeld reference here.

I need a Seinfeld reference bot.

Do you guys ever have that thing where you are almost asleep then feel like you're falling? That scares me everytime.

Unless you have multiple systems, I don't think k8s will yield much benefit over plain docker.

Reminds me of the US swapping to the metric system.

Short to mid term would be miserable and confusing for people. Long term would probably work out better. Will it happen: never.
