“At Viridian Dynamics, we build our robots with ethical AI, whatever that means; so that humans and androids can live in peace - we hope.”
Ssshh. Let’s not give away that little hint - there may be bosses present.
I learned Linux on the boss’ dime and it created tons of career opportunities.
Yeah, as the gap between paid OS and free ones narrows, we see the free ones in use in more and more contexts.
Cloud and phone went first, now it’s finally the year of the Linux desktop, again.
Yeah. It was embarrassing all those years we declared it the year of the Linux desktop, before. I’m glad we finally got there this year!
Plus on Pixel you can run GrapheneOS.
That makes me so happy.
Rarely. Require linear history for the win.
These are all very real possibilities.
Here’s another: The big shot billionaire’s agreed over drinks one night that their handlers - the staff that used to make them look smart - were overpaid.
I’m guessing that skill with Cascading Style Sheets is considered wasted time and effort at X, much like media relations, accessibility, and microservices.
I’m getting sidetracked here, but I want to give my support of McD’s turning every possible life event Grimace can have into to a new marketing event, so long as each comes with a new Gameboy color game.
I’m not sure, honestly.
Charitably, we could assume it’s just from removing Google and various carriers background apps meant to improve my experience.
Uncharitably, I have my suspicions. For the last five or so versions of Android something always seemed to be using processor cycles and battery when I wasn’t actually doing much with my phone.
But I never saw evidence of usage data exfiltration via Google apps - at least after I turned off the related optional settings.
In any case, switching to GrapheneOs was a startling and pleasant speed boost for me, whatever the real root cause.
I feel you.
I have found that searching for game reviews with the term “Cozy Gamer” finds games that fit into that after work funk, for me, when I have that time.
Indeed! I wish they would standardize this mode and add it as an icon to the back of the game box.
Edit: Also I’m old enough that I think of games as coming in boxes, still…
“Anything with a pause button.”
Someone make this into a shirt with a cool gamer logo. I’ve found my gamer crew.
“We’re here for you and we know that being 35 is really really really old, whether you’re willing to admit it or not.”
I feel seen.
Spoiler for a later stage of your journey: Your phone gets wayv faster. That part is pretty nice.
Yeah. Now the stupidity I post online has a purpose.
Someday a T-800 will be closing in on a freedom fighter, but will have an intrusive thought interrupt it at a key vulnerable moment. And that intrusive thought will be some random pun we posted to DadJokes. You’re welcome, future freedom fighters.
Can’t automate any of the other jobs they are trying AI on yet either, but it’s not stopping them.
Wilsooooonnnnn!
