I realized when I bought a WD_Black SSD and the chips read SanDisk so I looked it up

(Excuse the lil’ cat hair there, or don’t)

I hate Temu because the one time I tried to use it (was doing an ali order and wanted to compare), it told me I could get the item free if I downloaded the app and ordered it there.

That turned out to be a total lie, and instead some slot machine popped up and I was being pressured to like buy like 10 totally unrelated random things of literal junk quality (like cat toys and glitter markers and shit) within the next 2 minutes and I just gave up and went back to ali. I just wanted one thing, not do a TikTok haul video jeez

Imagine companies using YouTube videos to train their AI customer service reps. You call in, and for a while think you’re having a conversation with a person, but weirdly every minute and a half or so it’s just randomly peppered with that metal gear solid alert sound, the inevitable waowwww sound effect, Michael Scott and Dr. Evil soundboard clips, then when you start getting suspicious that it may not actually be a real human on the other line they randomly go on an ad read for hellofresh out of nowhere

non-sweetened grapefruit sparking water is a good mixer for ryes and bourbons imo

The Lincoln Lawyer

Like Musk, a lot of those videos are straight up stolen too. He stole and verbatim reposted a video I uploaded on YouTube once. Was a big reason I deleted that channel, that any apparent sense of irony could just be stripped so easily. (No he did not give credit, not that it was OC, it was a clip from TV I captured myself).

The thing that bothers me the most about him is that the election is seemingly in the bag yet he still has to lean into the USA Republican culture wars. Buddy, going after Trans people and the like isn’t going to win you any votes you don’t already have, what is the PURPOSE for bringing up this nonsense. Just annoys and disgusts me to the core.

from my understanding all this does is kick the can down the road to May and Canada Post leadership is still fighting to prevent that 2 weeks of vacation

(from 3 days ago)

Amid the ongoing Canada Post strike, federal Labour Minister Steven MacKinnon announced Friday that he is asking the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB) to order workers back on the job if it agrees with his determination there is an “impasse” in negotiations.

If the CIRB agrees, MacKinnon says the labour relations board would order Canada Post and all employees represented by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers to resume operations and extend the terms of the existing collective agreements until May 2025.

if this disturbs you, definitely don’t think about that public bathroom toilet seat

the last Leafs game I was watching had an ad from Scarborough General Hospital begging for money and a Dug Ford ad big upping how easy it is to get care in Ontario in the same commercial break

I thought the North American Brita system is a different product sold under license by Clorox, I looked it up again now and it’s unclear, it might just be a different size/shape? I’ll take a look at where they’re made next time im out. Would be funny if I swore that I could taste a difference and they were the same all along

Don’t Stop Pop Dat Pop Dat

I’ve tried a few, Zerowater, Brita and the Mavea. I stuck with the Mavea system, apparently it’s the European Brita. The jug was an overpriced import from Amazon but the filters are available at Walmart and Canadian Tire, some coffee machines use them.

Personally I think it’s the best tasting of the three, and the zerowater takes FOREVER to filter

is this meme?

I’ve watched a few B-movies where I’ve actually recognized explosions or car crashes being stolen licensed from better movies from years ago, which I guess is what AI video is doing in a way, but at least there was a crew with effects and stunt people involved the first time.

But there are just as many continuity errors in major live action film productions as there are in AI, and it’s probably easier to fix in AI than live action … whether you’re making AI or doing live action, you still have to have enough eyeballs on it to catch the errors, and to think through it, and make those corrections.

This may be the most detached from reality take I’ve read all week, and it’s been a long week. Pure weapons-grade copium

it’s about to become a cartoon from CBS, watch it get delayed like all those terrorist movies after 9/11
