AI breaks everything it touches.

In most juristictions I am aware of, trademark law does not stop anyone from using their own real name in business. That is why Hershey's Chocolate and Hershey's Ice Cream, not affiliated and never were, co-exist. It is the same for Snyder's of Hanover and Snyder of Berlin. They have the founder's real name, not a made up one.

Instead of an elective for the .5% who will understand it, teach computer literacy to everyone. They can't tell a mouse from a cat and will all be useless in any kind of office job as a result. We don't need any more career burger flippers.

Say that UFOs are alien visitors and no one bats an eye. Say they are Russian and Chinese drones and everyone loses their minds!

Daylight savings is play pretend time. Noon is when the sun is at its highest point. Pretending otherise is silly. When Franklin "proposed" it he was joking. The same article, with tongue in cheek, proposed firing cannons at dawn to make people wake up, and banning curtains on the sunrise side of homes to make people wake up. Play pretend time should go away forever, but there are too many stupid people for that to ever happen.

Purity of essence!

The way some prospective sperm donors are accepted and others are rejected is nothing shy of eugenics.

The Thinkpad may be the one and only example of that in all of tech. Usually they are so obsessed with the theory of constant improvement that they throw away the good while grasping for the perfect, and end up making a mess. While Lenovo seems to struggle with quality control, at least they have an understanding of what is good. My wife and I each own a current Thinkpad.

Hollywood has been out of ideas since the talkies replaced silent films, but when you boil it all down, everything is derivative of something. That has been true since the second cave drawing.

Everything TIkTok is doing, so is Facebook and every other social media site. The reason TikTok is getting crucified while Facebook gets a free pass is the connection to China. Bytedance divesting would change absolutely nothing.

Farmers should send John Deere a Dear John.

Just add bigger buttons and a clear place to put it up to your mouth and up to your ear, and you have The Senior Phone!

Primitive superstitious idiots killed cats during the Black Death thinking they were witches familiars, and the rat population skyrocketed making matters worse. Stupid ideas never go away, they just get repackaged.

Comic Sans Forever!

Windows 8 led to so many people swearing off home computers that few who gave up even saw 8.1. Computers that had 8 were shoved in to closets and forgotten or were thrown away to end up in landfills. It was the worst thing that ever happened to computing.
