I think the best billboard I've seen is in South Florida where it has a picture of a sexy woman and it says "Your wife is hot" in big letters. When you get closer, you see it's an ad for an AC servicing/repair company.

It's pretty much limited to the Political and Israel/Palestine related subs IMO.

Lou Gehrig approves.

...what if we're all bots and we just don't know it yet? 😶

"oh you listen to Iron Maiden? You clearly worship the devil!"

Same thing with big cats:

A Jaguar or Leopard just looks and acts like a big house cat.. but it can crush your skull with one bite and can drag your dead body 30 feet vertically up a tree.

That is the point, most people don't do research and see "ahh a bigger number, it must be better!". 1Khz refresh rate may be a niche thing now but in two years every company will be pushing something similar.

Yep, I've gotten fired/laid off from two jobs because I knew more than my boss 😑

Kinda hard to find them if you don't know they exist in the first place.

Just because it's becoming less useful doesn't mean it's useless. I search for stuff every day and can find the answer I'm looking for in under a few minutes.

That was far more interesting than I thought it was going to be, crazy enough, I grew up about 1.5 hours south of Princeton.

Screen technologies for a lot of things has gotten to the point where your eyes literally can't tell the difference, but sure, dump money into a placebo.

You just suck at searching for stuff apparently.

Yeah, if you feel like waiting for an answer when you could easily do it yourself in two seconds.

After working in IT for over a decade nothing surprises me anymore lol

I've gotten into it before with him because I find it funny, but didn't feel like it at the moment.

My friend disabled the 5 GHz WiFi radio on his access point and labeled the 2.4 GHz radio as "Fuck 5G" for a while. For those not aware the 5G that these idiots are talking about is The 5th Generation of Cellphone Technology which is completely different from the 5 GHz radio in WiFi access points.

My friend is friends with/works for this old lady (70s) that is a "holistic practitioner" and believes in all of this shit, and he believes in a fair amount of it too.

Last night he called her from his smartphone and told her that he needs her to order him a Lightning to Ethernet dongle for his iPad "because that's the only way to not get fried by the EMF".

I just sat there and chuckled to myself because I know there was no point in arguing with him.

The name of my Plex server has been "The Pirate's Booty" for about a decade 😂

Spending $100 billion on AI is insane, even with Google Money.
