Oh I still have Google assistant as my main assistant. I just switched it to Gemini for the screenshot

When your hands are wet or you can’t grab your phone…the one thing I used Google assistant for, Gemini can’t do.

You know what I’d love to see?

People going to Tesla dealerships and just wasting the time of sales staff.

Especially if you have poor credit and have no way to pay for a car. Make them spend resources running your credit. Have your credit locked for good measure. Tell them that you unlocked it. Come back every weekend, confused as to why it’s not working.

Make it impossible for them to get a sale out of you, but jerk them around to make them think they might.

In other words: scambait them. Because they are scammers.

This video needs to be intercut with the people stumping for Trump and showing how rabid they were prior to having #MAGARegret

It’s kind of like that guy that cheated in chess.

A toy vibrates with each correct statement you write.

I looked into uBlock rules. The problem is that you need to click “No” before continuing. Ublock can block the ad, sure, but they can’t perform user actions.

Scriptlets may be useful but I think an addon with a library of bypasses (sort of like sponsor block) might be better.

I already am. At this point, if I’m buying something on Amazon, it’s because I cannot find a comparable product elsewhere.

I’m even paying more at other retailers. I haven’t run the numbers but before I cancelled prime 4 years ago how, I easily spent thousands. Last year, I think I spent a few hundred.

This year, my goal is less than 100.

Amazon fucking sucks for me now. Every fucking purchase (which is getting rare and rarer) I get asked to join prime.

There is no “don’t ask me again”. Every fucking time I have to select “Not now”.

I’ve come close to writing a plugin to help you skip these ads.

Waterfox works great on Android.

The fact that excel lacks any sort of auditing or access controls. The fact that any corruption in the file could lead to the company not knowing what money goes where and who’s been paid and who owes them money.

It’s possible to encrypt traffic without a cert that expires.

I don’t know much about how Chromecast works but my bet is that it’s like a hacked together lighthttp or nginx server, which is why it needs a SSL cert renewal.

AccuWeather has been begging and lobbying for this for years. They are poised to profit from this.

I would call them “starter” instances. And I’m in agreement there should be a set of principles that these instances should follow but at the same time telling new users that it’s okay to switch instances. I started in .world but moved due to their increasingly conservative changes.

While I personally would steer new users away from .world, I think it’s more important to tell them it’s okay to switch instances.
