By using an older piece of tech that does one thing, you make doing that thing an activity again. As in, it’s a conscious involvement to do that thing now, it’s not just an app or a side feature of some other device.

For instance, I got an iPod Nano a little while ago and just loaded it with the few hundred songs I care to listen to. I use a fraction of the space of the thing if I care to add more music, but now when I want to listen to music I have to use a specific device to do so. It makes it more of a conscious decision to listen to music and, to me, makes me enjoy it more.

American sex ed hard at work here.

Just do it. It’s a simple process and will only brick it if you’re an absolute moron.

Are you claiming to have created this meme yourself back in 2016 or earlier?

I will never not smile at these lumps of shit falling apart.

Twice-baked potatoes. Bake them, lay them on the side, slice the top off, scoop out the potato while leaving the skin intact like a little boat. Mash the spuds with butter, sour cream, seasoning salt, cheese, and bacon bits (scallions too if you like them - I don’t), scoop back into the potato, shred more cheese on top, bake until melted.

Perfection.

I’m not that person from before, but that is still pretty dirty. Those shoulder buttons are yellow, the grey plastic seems to be covered in a film of what I assume is oil from a person’s hands, and what are those brown things on the side? I assume clips for some kind of rear protection.

That said, no drift yet is astounding. Even the people I know who baby their electronics experienced drift eventually. When did you get this? Curious if it’s a newer model and they made some changes.

Think of the dumbest person you know. Not that one. Dumber. Dumber. Yeah, that one. Now realize that ChatGPT has said “you’re absolutely right” to them no less than a half dozen times today alone.

If LLMs weren’t so damn sycophantic, I think we’d have a lot fewer problems with them. If they could be like “this could be the right answer, but I wasn’t able to verify” and “no, I don’t think what you said is right, and here are reasons why”, people would cling to them less.

And very informative. I haven’t heard many episodes but the one about White Castle was fascinating.

Guess it’s time to archive Myrient. A group of people could take care of it - split it into categories, download, and then sit on it until a new host can be found.

Entire categories are easy to download with a simple curl call.

Never have, never will. I’ll quit the industry before I use AI to do my job.

It won’t.
