  • You can afford groceries. You just can't afford to get caught.

    Side note, but you know those coolers for the milk where they stock them from behind? Loss prevention sometimes hang out in those - straight view down an entire aisle and shoppers* don't usually pay enough attention to notice them. Something to check.

    Good luck all! ^_^

  • Bruh, we're called 'nurses'.

  • Instructions unclear, drinking feces-contaminated Budweiser.

    sip

    ...only the texture changed.

  • Yeah but insurance covered the rest of the $400 can, so really you're getting a bargain!

  • I think it's a different D word. Some kind of French haircut if I'm not mistaken.

  • I think that one's the winner - thank you!

  • I like the theory that any life advanced enough to explore the galaxy is watching humanity in disgust and avoiding us like the plague while waiting for our self-induced extinction.

  • i am not sure there are any politics to debate , killing nazis is good.

    Yeah but it has to be in the context of videogames, or it's "iNciTiNG viOLeNcE" or some shit.

  • This and similar stories are 100% PR bullshit to make it feel more like an actual intelligence.

    It didn't "escape its sandbox" any more than your mug of coffee did when your asshole cat swatted it off the table.

    Actual intelligence that's artificial remains confined to science fiction, and no amount of marketing will change that.

    If and when the day comes that we make a true AI, there'll be some serious boy-who-cried-wolf shit going on to convince the public that it's actually real this time.

  • That looks similar to my current model - look at the switch on the bottom:

    It can be set to heat OR cool. Or neither. But not both. Apparently letting the internal thermometer decide if it needs hot or cool air is a tall order.

  • Home Improvement @lemmy.world

    'dumb' thermostat that can switch itself between heat/AC within a range?

  • Naw, they were just as stupid/malicious/anti-American pre-covid.

    Any effect it had on their brains has been obfuscated by their chimpanzee-esque baseline.

  • I've never gotten a soapy taste from it either, but I definitely have the gene that makes it taste horrid.

    For me, the taste of cilantro is the exact same profile as the smell of stink bugs. So... Anything with even a tiny bit of cilantro in it tastes like it's filled with ground up beetles.

    But not soap. Tbh I think soap would be an improvement.

    ...I'm super jealous of folks who don't have the gene - what they describe it tasting like sounds fucking amazing.

  • isn't just mildly infuriating.

    ...idk, there comes a point of exhaustion where major grievances are so frequent and routine that you kinda just go numb to them.

    A new one pops up, we'll bitch about it for a bit, and just fizzle back into numbness.

    It shouldn't be mildly infuriating, but here we are.

  • Yeah I know, but like... our planet is on fire, the Nazis are back, we (US) have a president who's at war with our citizens and economy, we have the Horseman Pestilence acting as Health Secretary... the list goes on and on.

    Cereal took a step in the right direction. Woo. 🎉

    It's still really bad for you. Woo. 🎉

    I know not all things need to be relative, just where my brain is at right now.

  • Don't be evil.

  • me irl

  • *cocks uBlock*

    BLOCK ELEMENT

  • ...add one to the pile of "why tf wasn't this done like 20 years ago".

    Baby steps I guess, but that baby is currently staggering its way through a forest fire in the context of the rest of current events, so it's kinda hard to give a shit about cereal right now.

  • Not just gold, but a warm and fuzzy feeling!

  • Yeah, but if you went to flip-the-switch school for a quarter of your life, passed the flip-the-switch boards, adhere to (or in this case, only 'be aware of') a flip-the-switch ethics committee, and practice alongside dozens of flip-the-switch support staff, it's a bit of a different scenario.

    Doing all that and still flipping the switch inappropriately is NOT some split second decision making dilemma, it's legit malice.
