I just phoned a business today that ended up with an “AI receptionist” when they didn’t answer the phone.

They wanted to take my name down, asked who I was leaving a message for, and then recorded the message…

My god what a painful process that was. It was absolutely useless. Firstly it got my name wrong, and then the name of the person I was leaving the message for wrong. No “Janet” my name is not Don it’s John, and no I’m not leaving a message for Kim Its for Kam. And then it needs to repeat your entire message back to you in order to make sure it didn’t fuck it up which amazingly the message was probably 95% okay but it was a giant waste of my time when a FUCKIN VOICEMAIL WOULD HAVE SUFFICED

Is it illegal to have a facemask? People should start carrying around ski masks in their vehicles in case ICE approaches them. If they claim it’s illegal then why the fuck is ICE wearing them?

Except now the labour is hidden in a corporate warehouse and you can’t see the abuse.

If you can’t survive this, I never wanted you anyways…

Why do they even need musk? It’s not like he is lead engineer or chief of design.

Yeah I was more thinking the mouse be free plus any replacements in the future.

Then you would break even after about 5 years ($60)

Honestly I wouldn’t mind if a company charged like, $1/month or something reasonable like that but for some reason some asshole made it standard practice to charge $10-$15/month for literally anything and now everyone uses that as the starting point for their “services”

There a free to play online game called Palia that’s pretty chill.

Not as farm intensive as stardew, but you do have a few plots to grow crops and you can refine them into jams and pickled goods, etc.

Can also cook your food into meals, give gifts to villagers to build up relationships, and each villager has a story and background to learn.

There is also mining, tree felling, plant foraging, animal hunting, fishing, etc.

It’s a first person 3D world, and I haven’t tried it with controller but I imagine it would be fine.

It’s very chill, there is pretty much no negatives for any action or inaction that you take.

Oh also you can build your house on your plot of land and decorate it with a shit ton of decorative furniture and nic knacks.

Main storyline quests are not too bad either, there is a story to the world that develops as well.

Only when people use the wrong input, garbage in and garbage out.

In the same vein I can’t think of any instance where excel had calculated things wrong unless there was a fault in the formula that I made.

I imagine it’s because everywhere else in the world has higher standards for food

Authoritarian capitalism. Funny how much Maga and Trump bash China but want America to become like it.

I also prefer a yard full of fallen leaves over an atmosphere full of pollen and people sneezing everywhere.

And not wearing a seat belt because, oh my, it’s uncomfortable (I wonder why) and got yeeted through the windshield? That one?

That’s a real winter where it’s enjoyable

I have lived in areas where it’s -30 to -35 and 12+ inches of snow on the ground from November to may. Personally I did quite like it as well but it’s not to everyone’s taste. The first scenario I described is where I think the most people would enjoy it.

I love winter when it’s a real winter. I think most people who hate winter live in an area where they only get half winters.

When each day is generally -5 to -10 degrees celsius, and you have a constant layer of snow around everywhere for a solid 2-3 months, is when winter is my favourite season of the year

But when you have an average temperature of -1 degrees to 5 degrees, and you get random flurries on snow that melt and freeze constantly, then occasional freezing rain and hail, that’s when winter sucks.

Autumn is better than spring.

Spring has too much melting snow from winter and hasn’t warmed up enough, so it’s always cold and damp.

In autumn the ground is still bone dry from the what of the summer, so even when it rains it just soaks into the ground and you’re good. Then the heat of the summer is still around as it slowly cools into winter, so you still get warm days and cool nights.

Sure, someone just got shot and the crowd is panicking and trying to escape.

Let’s just stand here in the middle of the exit and fill a video, blocking everyone’s way out! Absolutely brilliant.

God given rights?

Didn’t the British leave Britain for America to get away from the church and give themselves their own rights?
