  • If its wrong to use AI to put genitals in someone's mouth it should probably be wrong to use AI to put words in their mouth as well.

  • My DNS setup at the moment is lazy I am using NextDNS. It lets me individual rules for each vlan though which I like as it gives a lot of control.

    • Parents Sue Gaming Companies Over ‘Video Game Addiction’, Because That’s Easier Than Parenting

  • I also want to point out that a lot of these games purposefully misclassify themselves in the AppStore. Meaning if you are a parent and you say "I want my kid to have 1-2 hours of game time, but all research tools are allowed all the time" Some games will report themselves as "Information and Reading" to get around settings. I find oftentimes the more garbagey the game the more likely it will do that.

    • Chamberlain shuts off access to MyQ’s APIs, breaking smart home integrations

  • My previous house was smart down to nearly every light being RGB Hue. For movie nights it kicked ass to be able to sync the lights in my living room / kitchen to the movie.

    The challenge in IoT is the "I". Many companies make cheap products that REQUIRE internet to work and are not going to work longer than a decade in most cases.

    When I was designing that house I had made it a point to not purchase any device that was not Zigbee, Z-Wave or Natively compatible with HomeKit which led to a very robust setup that would continue to function even when the internet was down.

    If you are dabbling I recommend making the same decision even if you plan to use GoogleHome or Alexa. The HomeKit compatible things usually cost more for a reason.

    • Dozens of health organizations pledge ‘full support’ for federal ban on menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars

  • Blunt wraps are what these are mainly targeting I imagine (Backwoods, Swisher Sweets, White Owls)... BUT Acid cigars are pretty nice and the brand I always point out. They used to advertise in cigar magazines back when I would read them and would feature interesting rolling methods that leaned in to the name. (Cheaper end as far as cigars go)

    • YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers

  • While that is different... That is much more frightening to consider.

    • There is a reason why Linux is my main operating system of choice -- and it's not because of the freedom.

  • The PowerPC installers used to have a step where it would output something like "Blessing /dev/sda1 with holy penguin pee" loved that message :)
