So he’ll stop “trying” to get there (using the hype to scam people) if Harris wins, right?

May I introduce you to our lord and savior, Aldi?

I haven’t stopped wearing an N95 in public since 2020. I’m not going to say nobody has ever been weird to me about it, but the vast majority of people are more interested in my colorful hat than my mask. YMMV depending on location.

Lmao, even

God, I wish Nintendo made the Pokemon games, because then they might actually not be ugly, terribly optimized garbage. Nintendo owns a minority share of The Pokemon Company, which is also owned by Game Freak and a company called Creatures. Each company takes care of different aspects of the franchise. Game Freak still does all the game development, and I wish they wouldn’t because they obviously don’t care about the franchise anymore and haven’t for quite a while.

Open to investigation: no

Open to sucking up your work and personal information: absolutely!

Anyone who has been a pedestrian is also well acquainted with this. Cars watch for and expect other cars, not people (bikes, mopeds, etc). The amount of times I’ve almost been hit by someone who is staring intently at oncoming traffic and flooring it without looking anywhere else is too damn high.

God bless all the bots and brainless fucks cheering this clown into the championships of self made problems.

Now, instead of paying Rooney the draft severance amount worth a little more than $25,000, Twitter, which is now called X, has to pay Rooney more than $600,000

lol. lmao.

There are definitely idiots, but these idiots don’t get their ideas of how the world works out of thin air. These AI chatbot companies push the cartoon reality that this is a smart robot that knows things hard in their advertisements, and to learn otherwise you have to either listen to smart people or read a lot of text.

The e-commerce giant also gave every affected customer a gift card without requiring proof of destruction or adequately providing public notice or informing customers of actual hazards, as can be required by law to ensure public safety.

I was supposed to get a gift card?? I didn’t get a freakin gift card, I have to destroy it and submit a bunch of evidence to the manufacturer to get a refund.

AI making itself sick and worthless after flooding the internet with trash just gives me a warm glow.

Not sure I understand why train games are on topic because they’re open source but an open source desktop icon isn’t.

This is basically Ballmasterz 9009, if you like weird adult cartoons (made by the same guy that did Superjail).

The year is 2047. Individually tracked pricing algorithms determine prices for each customer. I am the local water man, who everyone pays a small fee to go buy clean water, because my high volume of purchases means I get a slight discount. In only 34 more years I can pay off my 8th grade education and start thinking about a down payment on a double sleeping pod.

This month, Walmart became the latest retailer to announce it’s replacing the price stickers in its aisles with electronic shelf labels. The new labels allow employees to change prices as often as every ten seconds.

“If it’s hot outside, we can raise the price of water and ice cream. If there’s something that’s close to the expiration date, we can lower the price — that’s the good news,” said Phil Lempert, a grocery industry analyst.

Jesus, I can’t imagine just coming out and saying this like it’s not fucking deranged to charge people more for WATER during a heat wave.

Also, the first time the price of something rises in the 5 minutes it takes for me to get my shopping done and get to the checkout, I’m taking a shit on the floor.

Who could have foreseen that laying off a shit ton of people and working the remaining people into the ground (often under threat of deportation due to visas) would result in costly errors??

-business genius Elon Musk, apparently

So he’s ineligible to run for president as he’s not a natural born citizen, but this made me wonder, are there any laws on who can be VP? What if they’re further down the line of succession, like Speaker of the House or president pro tem. of the Senate? What happens if, through the line of succession, someone who is ineligible to run still becomes president?

The most surprising thing here to me is that someone was buying a 737 Max 3 months ago.
