Knowing the code to staff only areas gives me a feeling of power. Even though there's nothing back there but a filthy office, stock room, and canteen.

This is absolutely fantastic!

Sounds like the Gestapo are just arresting everyone and anyone with a vaguely "foreign" sounding name.

I don't mind AI now that I've vastly lowered my expectations of what it can do, and am aware that "AI" isn't actually real. An LLM might be useful in some situations where you can reasonably expect it to give a decent answer and where your task isn't particularly important.

Problem is, most of it is forced on you and is not privacy friendly.

Yeah arguing on the Internet is a waste of time which is why I don't do it much anymore unless I feel very strongly that someone's reply to my comment needs to be disputed.

Most of the time I make my point then don't bother responding to any replies. It's much more pleasant to respond when it's you're not arguing, just discussing something interesting.

Personal anecdote. My PC cost me £900 in 2017. I haven't upgraded it since. I have saved a significant amount of money in that time that would otherwise have been spent on PlayStation Plus for the benefit of playing multiplayer and the general higher price of games.

Even if you accept the argument that consoles are significantly cheaper in the first place, the point that PC ownership saves money in the long run is often overlooked.

I've never owned as many games for as little cost as I do now.

Did she scalp Marge Simpson for that feather duster?

PR exercise for Israel time!

That's a good boy. He deserves all the scritches!

Worth it

Stupid teabaggers, they're absolutely deranged

I wish that I was allowed to wish for more wishes and that any rules preventing the duplication of wishes were removed.
