I think I saw someone swimming in some sewage en route from scraping a bear carcass off the road, let me go check.

1. I got asked once if I played world of warcraft since they say a guy with the name "thegarbz" playing. I said no. By the way I know exactly who that person is because he impersonated me as a joke. I found that flattering and funny, but it has no impact on my life beyond that.
Reminds me of my first email account
I don't trust single points of failure.
Yeah, this. If I have to sign up to some site that I don't care at all if it gets hacked, I use a throwaway password. Oh noez, someone might compromise my WidgetGenerator.foo.bar account and generate some widgets in my name, heavens to betsy!

This is still something Slashdot needs to fix because it doesn't just crop up for people confused by multiple mouse buttons, it's also a thing for anyone copying and pasting portions of articles with quotations in them.
Actually, Apple did deliver that capability but developers pushed-back and didn't want it.
Right. It was a fuckup. And moreover, it was anti-developer and anti-consumer. Yet we're supposed to worship His Holy Turtleneck and address our ills with juice fasts in His name.
Thanks for admitting that you're shit.
Not a big fan of this, but I'm pretty certain they need that money to actually replace all the working parts of the reactor. Only the concrete shell will be reused. They could probably use the same amount of money to fix reactor 2 the same way, they are just not touching it because of history.
Sure, they had to sell their stock, including the parts needed to make the machines. At that time they were also still at least assembling them.
The Mac IIci was on the market for over 3 years before it got replaced. You never see that kind of longevity anymore.
IIci September 1989, Quadra 700 October 1991, in almost the same case. Two years, one month.
This statement was cute, even funny, the first few times that it was used. That was because it was such an absurd way of making that point.
That statement was stupid, even absurd the first times that it was used — by the Reich wing. The entire reason I'm still using it when speaking to them is to rub their noses in how fucking stupid it was.
But, after this statement has been repeated so many times, it's just fucking stupid now.
You're two steps behind me as usual, but at least you're getting there.
You should consider abandoning it before people start thinking that you are stupid.
Insert Travolta looking around meme here. This is me, looking for fucks.
If the airlines are acting as a de facto division of the government by providing them with your personal data, then they should be treated as such. That means they should follow simple rules for protecting PII like collecting and retaining the minimum needed.
Steve Jobs would not release a product until it actually did what they claimed it would do.
You mean like when he claimed the iPhone would be all webapps?
Let's face it, Jobs' only superpower was being a super dick to employees. This can only take you so far.
rsilvergun has been screaming even louder about how AI as we have it now it's already the end of the world, and that society isn't "ready" for it until he says it is.
Since he's living rent-free in your head, can we assume you're the one responsible for the rsilvergun-impersonating LLM spam?
