Speeding cameras are already a thing some places, but there’s been a lot of hooplah over whether the city can actually enforce fines for people caught that way.

quicksand ,

Hopefully they improve it, sounds useful.

I think the idea is that people talk about the country in a positive context, such as sports. Trying to stem the onslaught of negative news regarding human rights, OPEC etc. But what do I know, I’m not a doctor

quicksand ,

Good to know. I’ve been using the Google one and not Samsung because having two of the same app seemed redundant. Guess I’ll set up the Samsung one, thanks

Hang in there, things will be better soon. Happy to hear you’re seeing your doctor soon, hopefully they’ll hook you up with a better med. In the meantime, try to take it easy on yourself. You’re awesome, don’t forget that

quicksand ,

Nope not TMI. Feel free to share… you seem to be handling your problems well. Even if things get tougher, I can tell by your attitude that you’ll be just fine :)

quicksand ,

Wow, same for me. I’ve heard many rants about how they just want to put me on pills. Of course, I didn’t get any help in non-medication related ways either

Microsoft AI suggests food bank as a “cannot miss” tourist spot in Canada (arstechnica.com)

Late last week, MSN.com’s Microsoft Travel section posted an AI-generated article about the “cannot miss” attractions of Ottawa that includes the Ottawa Food Bank, a real charitable organization that feeds struggling families. In its recommendation text, Microsoft’s AI model wrote, “Consider going into it on an empty...

MS unintentionally creating awareness, gotta love it. I hope this leads to an increase in donations. While Mr. Gates is busy pretending to be Saint of Africa, there’s people starving on his doorstep.

quicksand ,

Commenting because I’m also interested

quicksand ,

If you let me know how to help you, then I’m in. I have a raspberry pi 4 and some external hard drives. That’s it. But I also have some money and would rather help you than host a lonely instance, Mr skankhunt

quicksand ,

Lmao I thought the same thing. Russell Crowe = Gabe Newell. It’s been a conspiracy the whole time

I’d like some more context if you’re trying to make a point

The world's largest chipmaker promised to create thousands of US jobs. There are growing tensions over whether US workers have the skills or work ethic to do them. (www.businessinsider.com)

The world’s largest chipmaker promised to create thousands of US jobs. There are growing tensions over whether US workers have the skills or work ethic to do them.::Jobs at the TSMC semiconductor factory in Arizona could require long hours and total obedience. Americans may push back on the company’s culture.

quicksand ,

No, it’s going to require extreme salaries, because there are so many options for the qualified people in the Phoenix area. TSMC’s reputation precedes them and people would rather work at Intel or NXP or ONsemi or anywhere else for less money, than to work for them

People who want to buy a house…

quicksand ,

Right so we should ruin their credit scores so it gets harder to rent (yes rental agencies check) or buy a car (even if they get one, their interest rate will be super high). Better we just fuck people over since they can’t afford a house, right?

quicksand ,

Ok so I’ll move to Ireland, since they speak English and I could keep my job I’m sure I’ll have much better luck renting there XD. Go away troll

quicksand ,

You say kids, but you’re talking about people who are mostly mid 20s-40s. Exactly how old are you, geezer?

quicksand ,

Many people can’t afford to move. When were you born? Just give me a decade. You sound like a Boomer. Born into a fantastic economic situation, ruining it for the future, and then sitting on the sidelines with stupid fucking opinions

quicksand , (edited )

For one, you dodged the question. For two, wanna float me 10+ grand? Promise I’ll pay it back in social security. I already started payment so you know I’m good for it.

Edit to add (since you’re probably too old to understand acronyms): How old are you? You’ve failed to answer this question

quicksand ,

Ok sorry for being so flip, this is decent advice. Just stop eating avocado toast and you’ll own a house, guys!!! Just listen to this man!!!1!1!1

quicksand ,

I have a passport already, my work paid for it. That’s not the issue. The issue is that student loans are burdening people in an unmanageable way. Once the payments start kicking in, I’ll be fine, but many people won’t. Should they have not got useless degrees, Ya. But they don’t deserve to suffer for it when everyone told them to choose whatever they want. But that shouldn’t haunt them for the rest of their lives. I’m done arguing, so this is my opinion. Agree or not, that’s fine

quicksand ,

Now that’s some dank strains. Someone needs to be at out critical mass and blue dream, and I think we found our man… Facelikeapotato, we don’t deserve you, but we need you

quicksand ,

An excellent warning sign. Fuck looking at stripes, the Indians get it

quicksand ,

The movie Employee of the Month had that

Monkey’s paw curls, you get the weather of Bakersfield.

The royal we, as it were. This guy doesn’t speak for me XD

Fani Willis says Trump, 18 co-defendants to voluntarily surrender in Georgia by Aug. 25 (thehill.com)

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis late Monday gave former President Trump and 18 co-defendants until Aug. 25 at noon to voluntarily surrender in Georgia following an indictment that unveiled multiple charges in connection to their attempts to interfere in the 2020 election.

quicksand ,

The dumb ex-President will be running for reelection next year, so unfortunately we have to care about him

quicksand ,

RIP Robin, you were too good for this world

quicksand ,

Yessir, this resonates with me. Thanks for your reply

quicksand ,

Steamchat: Great for annoying friends, perfect for annoying enemies

quicksand ,

Yes, this thread contains a lot of great banter and I’m here for it!

His name is fucking Bowser!? He needs to sue Nintendo for infringing on his trademark

quicksand ,

What kind of specs do you need to run a personal instance? I’d like to, but I don’t really want to invest in a bunch of computer stuff right now

quicksand ,

No way! I’ve got a r pi 4 buried somewhere in my garage. Gonna have to try to set up my own instance. Is there a starter guide for people of limited intelligence? How’d you get yours set up?

quicksand ,

Great! Thanks for the tips. Happy to find my next project lol

quicksand ,

Definitely a bit much, considering the massive amount of amphetamine as well. I guarantee this guy would do much better following your advice and waiting until his body is fully awake before consuming stimulants

quicksand ,

Can you provide some more context please?

quicksand ,

Thank you!

quicksand ,

What wahming said. I didn’t understand what was going on, luckily Arcanum shared an article about the situation. I gave some money, I hope you guys succeed

higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs (lemmy.world)

Went to a restaurant in LA today and when I got the check I noticed that it was a bit higher than it should be. Then I noticed this 18% service charge. So… We, as customers, need to help pay for their servers instead of the owners paying their servers a living wage. And on top of that they have suggested tip. I called bs on...

Sorry for the flip comment, but I couldn’t resist that dunk. I hope you’re having a good day

California judge charged with killing wife had 47 guns, 26,000 rounds of ammunition: Court documents (abcnews.go.com)

A California Superior Court judge arrested last week has now been charged with killing his wife in front of their adult son at their home. Court filings reveal the judge had over 47 weapons and 26,000 rounds of ammunition in his home.

quicksand ,

I also don’t know what is wrong, but as a citizen here, I’d like to try anything and everything to prevent mass murder. I don’t see how limiting ammunition wouldn’t work towards that goal
