I have a bidet with the functions he mentions other than auto flush as it installs on a standard American toilet. You scoff, but profiles probably are a thing.

Mine has a remote that probably does what his app does. It controls:

• Start/Stop
• Water temperature
• Seat temperature
• Water pressure
• Angle of nozzle
• Oscillator
• Turbo mode
• Air dryer
• Deodorizer
• Children’s mode
• Women’s hygiene mode
• Default run duration timer setting
• Power save mode

It’s okay to plagiarize books if they’re in a library.

Thanks for the lecture, professor.

We both know he was using the broken tail light as probable cause for a stop. He wanted him to pull over because he suspected he was drunk or on drugs or simply because he was black with a broken tail light.

As soon as the man didn’t pull over the cop got his hackles up and now he was definitely going to stop him. Escalation is the way with cops.

Well I think it does, because they don’t know literally everything about us yet. But they will one day if we don’t fight back.

As Doctorow points out, ‘Saying security and privacy don’t matter because you have nothing to hide is like saying freedom of speech doesn’t mater because you have nothing to say.’

It’s a very short-sighted view. Those rights will be taken from you if you don’t protect them.

Oil has a bad reputation but how lucky we are to have it. How does a civilization on a planet without hydrocarbons make the leap to a technological species?

It’s not impossible, but it’s got to be a lot harder.

When they do boil off they need to make sure to have a hell of a lot of cocktail sauce and melted butter on hand.

It could simply be that the rise of life is wildly more rare than we think.

I read that stuff a few weeks ago. And the responses and discussion on Kagi’s Discord. I’ll continue to monitor Kagi’s behavior, of course, but for now I prefer Kagi. I get far more relevant results with no advertising noise and as much or as little “AI” assistance as I want.

Google is a cesspool and DDG is simply inferior - worthy, but inferior.

There’s a reason Primus’ Les Claypool mentions the 7 Layer Burrito in “Wynonna’s Big Brown Beaver”.

The shit was good.

McDonald’s Beef tallow fries. One of the great losses of my early life.

Try Kagi. Paid search engines are the future in order to extract yourself from the enshittification of “free” search engines.

I’ve played DSP, it’s a great game too. I’ll probably jump back to that when I burn out on Planet Crafter. The thing I don’t like about it and Satisfactory is conveyor belt management. The constant battle to rewire the spaghetti.

Every kernel update (and there are tons) requires me to rebuild my third party modules, but you need to do it in a toolbox and the kernel headers version must match the running kernel version, which is actually more annoying than it sounds.

Boy, I doubt that.

My Windows 11 machine doesn’t require any of that.

I’ve been playing Planet Crafter waaay too much. Check it out if you like Factorio, Satisfactory, etc. It’s fun and super addictive. At least to me.

Wait, what? I’m wrapped around my skeleton?

Surge pricing. If your BMI is high they charge more for Pringles.

Came to say that someone should edit that 37 dicks scene in Clerks.

When I saw the thumbnail I assumed it was a still of Christian Bale from The Machinist.
