Wanted to love it, watched it twice, don’t remember a thing. I’ve found that’s my criteria for movie critique, do I remember it the next day. May seem cool in the moment, I’m easily impressed, but did I wake up thinking, “Holy shit that was cool!”

Went to see the original 2 nights in a row in 1999. Yeah, woke up thinking it was cool.

Confront these fucking people. Flip them off, scream at them, don’t let them feel safe. If you can get it done off camera, hammer these fucking stickers and windows. I’m on full offense.

Oh god, make it an Igor from Discworld.

They need someone like me doing interviews. Every time I see videos like this, the presenter is obviously liberal, got that vibe. Middle-aged white redneck like me could really get people talking. To MAGA, I’m “safe”, not some city-slicker lib come to dunk on them.

And no, not saying the interviewer did anything like that at all. But I hope you get my gist.

Sounds fun to play around with, but lonely, socially isolated people will get sucked in. God knows the internet has created enough people like that, this just feeds the beast.

He’s not a judge. We works for the DoJ reviewing immigration cases. No idea why anyone is calling him that, but it seems everyone is doing so. Fucking weird.

I’ll say it again, CEO pay ain’t the problem. Did the math once for American Airlines, then McDonald’s just lately. If the CEO took $0 pay, and that was spread among total employees, it amounts to chicken change.

Hell, let’s take aim at Microsoft, why not.

In fiscal year 2024, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella’s total compensation was $79.1 million. This represents a 63% increase compared to his prior year’s compensation of $48.5 million.

And most of that was stock, not cash.

The increase is primarily due to a significant rise in the value of his stock awards, which accounted for the majority of his compensation.

They have 228,000 employees. Spread that around and it amounts to a $347 yearly bonus. (Or, $.17/hr. if you like.) If I worked at M$, I’d be fucking insulted if that was my Christmas Bonus. Hell, my last job was at a tiny software dev and we all got 10x that much, sometimes more.

No shit, this is how my wife cooks. Burners on full, go. And yet everything turns out great. Bonus: She cleans the splatters. Weird.

You’re probably thinking of apostasy. You can be any religion, but if you’re Islamic and renounce it, capital offense.

Tripped acid and went to see them in Central Park just a few years back. In, uh, 1992.

Fucked up and connected my latest TV to wireless, mindlessly input the password. Had to wipe it to factory to undo that.

Mine’s plugged into the network, but haven’t seen anything obnoxious. Worst was them changing the screensaver to have some fairly subtle ads. If they ever fuck around I’ll cut it off at the firewall.

And yes, as you said, I power it off Jellyfin running on my PC. Or, again using it as a 2nd monitor, I sling the VLC window to it. We don’t pay for any media at all unless you count Amazon from my Prime subscription. Or unless you count my $6 VPN. :) (I know that’s hateful around here, but I can’t afford to drop it.)

Been wanting that gif and been too lazy to record it!

AI is far more than LLMs. Why does everyone on lemmy think AI is nothing but?!

My favorite for fucking around in the woods cost $125. I have several shotguns around that price range.

The government will still have to pay to use Excel. Too much shit will break, you can’t just flip an .xlxs into another program.

Nah. Water is created and destroyed all the time. Here go the formula for photosynthesis:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Take some baking soda for heart burn. You will instantly know you’ve created water and gas. (But hey, it works.)

NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2O + CO2

Anyone here burning glucose and breathing?

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

JFC, here’s Google’s AI take, depsite the evidence above:

Water on Earth is constantly being transformed through a natural cycle, but it is not created or destroyed. This transformation, known as the Hydrological Cycle, involves processes like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and runoff. While Earth has a vast amount of water, its total quantity has recently dropped, according to NASA.

Unarmed? Got a 9 in the closet, “just in case” of whatever the fuck. Don’t know if it’s loaded? Maybe grandpa’s rusty 12-gauge is floating around somewhere?

Too. Fucking. Late.

Been screaming for years that this day was coming. And all the while Democrats, “gUnS Bad, KiLl kiDs!” Well, now you can get in on the “killed” side! But hey, at least you can die in a pool of blood while keeping your morals intact!

“But if I fight back I may DIE!”

Yes. That happens when you fight for your life, sometimes you lose. I’ll die with my boots on, please and thank you.

Solid answer! Guess I’m a cow patty for even asking, but you came to the rescue.

Why was the US funding FOSS projects? That strikes me as weird, inappropriate and suspicious.

Don’t think so. I put myself as “atheist” or “non-believer”, whatever the option was. My wife was a preschool teacher at a private Christian place.
