  • The young people will be the new boomer scapegoat soon enough. The latest generations are not immune to propaganda and corruption from politics.

  • Any other insult around the facts of what he said or did would be much more helpful than this.

  • Sure, I just can't help but imagine how I personally would react if this became common for all patients.

  • Reddit Wants 'Deeper Integration' with Google in Exchange for Licensed AI Training Data - Slashdot

    Jump

  • However, Reddit executives have noticed that traffic coming from Google has limited value, as users seeking answers to a specific question often don't convert into becoming active Redditors, the people said. Now, Reddit is engaging with product teams at Google in hopes of finding ways to send more of its users deeper into its ecosystem of community forums, according to the executives.

    What does this even mean (I'm afraid to know their suggestions)? So I check reddit for an answer if web search is failing me, and they're going to somehow trap me there? Tease an answer and not show anything until I sign in? Idk but sounds like I'll be using "-site:reddit.com" more and more, or realizing I dont care enough to get the answer!

  • I think I would be offended if some robot came up to try and provide emotional support. Its fake, and reminds me that our society values profit over human life. This should not be normalized as a necessity due to missing money that is going to the pockets of administrators, owners, insurance, and whoever else...this is pathetic.

    Curtis Evans, of Evanston, carries a U.S. flag through gas deployed by federal officers as they clear protesters from the entrance of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Broadview on Sept. 19, 2025. Evans said he was a Marine during President Ronald Reagan’s term. (Stacey Wescott/Chicago Tribune)

  • Microsoft insists Copilot+ PCs are 'empowering the future'

    Jump

  • I turned off copilot in the outlook settings and the UI refuses to remove the icon. The icon flashes in full color, next to other things I use, before then going grey/disabled, but its impossible to remove it. So it shoves it in your face every day even after you already learned how much it sucks. Fucking worthless software and UI design going on at Microsoft.

  • Everyone should be doing something

    Jump

  • How can you tell? Just curious as a Marine veteran. We used to do jumping jacks and pushups in the gas room until the last man couldn't take it anymore. Those were the days!

    Edit: Oops nm, I found the source on this guy.

  • Amateurs Using AI to “Vibe Code” Are Now Begging Real Programmers to Fix Their Botched Software

  • My experience exactly, from the last 3 companies ive worked for! And now there are no job advancement options internally because the openings have moved to India.

  • Android will soon be able to theme every app icon, and Google Play won't let developers opt out

  • Then don't adjust the theme?

  • Roku wants you to see a lot more AI-generated ads

    Jump

  • I pay extra for paramount+ ad free version and they still show me periodic ads. Its infuriating. And they are much louder than the show content, as a cherry on top. What an awful service.

  • Several people fired after clampdown on speech over Charlie Kirk shooting

    Jump

  • Do you think a background check and red flag law would have changed the outcome in this case? What evidence is there that it would?

  • I really doubt there was any ricochet after watching the video. There is no disturbance at all except strait to the neck.

  • What are some things for a new home owner to consider getting early on?

    Jump

  • This is all so thoughtful, thank you for sharing!

    I was thrilled when I bought my first home just a few years back and they had a single page hand written note explaining a couple of minor issues, some unusual plumbing, and an apology for a small hole in the wall done by accident during move out day. It was a relief just for some insight, since I didn't really know what to do with a house and was a bit scatterbrained already.

    This would be above and beyond expectations in the best way possible. Thanks for the reminder for me to get this started.

  • More dust storms called haboobs are coming to California, thanks to climate change

    Jump

  • In Arabic, "habūb" means "blowing furiously." This word has proven to be quite useful to describe the strong sandy winds blowing across the Sudan, but other desert climate residents have also adopted the word. - some article I found.

  • Pentagon plans military deployment in Chicago as Trump eyes crackdown

  • Plus they will be working against our own people. When deployed to another country there is some mental disconnect happening that I don't think will happen domestically.

    Aside from tactics and training not working which I agree with, I don't believe the majority will be motivated to be effective in any way.
