The question is whether it was Charles III or Elizabeth II, because those are two very different problems to be having in one’s garden.

That’s impossible.

There's a solution for having too much cell coverage and it's called T-Mobile.

The parody writes itself...

It’s dream time for kitty. #cats

I will pass on the hot grapefruit water.

What's really burning me up is they've introduced stuff that takes over other keys I press! I'm trying to tab and the AI is like "ah ha that means you agree with my suggestion, I'll put it in for you" no no no why am I wasting time arguing with my computer about what I want to type.

I am Lwaxana Troi, daughter of the Fifth House, holder of the Sacred Chalice of Rixx, heir to the Holy Rings of Betazed.

Not once in the 80s, 90s or 00s do I recall a politician urging the public to embrace email, mobile phones, texting, two factor authentication, online banking, air fryers, or to replace all their cassette collection with a CD collection. So forgive me if I smell a rat.

I’m fairly sure those are day mares.

My lukewarm take on the dasher grandma discourse: I expect she’s an actual driver on their platform, or at least she was at the time she started doing PR stuff for DD. They probably surveyed their drivers to find someone who would “poll” well, and kept using her for PR on this issue. 1/

Very helpful coworker over here

Ugh why did you wake me up? I’m going back to sleep. #cats

nasa employee: oh hey u guys are back early artemis crew: pope's weak on crime nasa employee: what? artemis crew: *preparing a eucharist and getting back on the rocket-ship* the pope is weak on crime.

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

Otto is keeping me company after I got 3,000 tiny punches to the kidney today (shockwave lithotripsy).

At least a dog would have had good intentions.

In the use case that I come closest to this, it’s asking the Google-branded wiretap in my kitchen to set a timer. It used to just be basic on-device voice processing, and then it would set the timer. Now, any request gets processed by Gemini, and it’s 50/50 on whether I get a response at all.

Can't open Outlook in space either

Lurie would never.

Realizing that some of my inexplicable sadness about the Artemis II stuff is that it feels like a trans-dimensional communication from an America that took a different path and chose joy instead of fear and hate.

you WASH Otto? you wash his body like the dishrag? oh! oh! jail for fathers! and the groomer! jail for One Thousand Years!!!!

♥️

Contemplating my reflection. What is the self? What is for dinner?

nasa employee: oh hey u guys are back early astronaut: Office365 in spaceship nasa employee: what? astronaut: *loading a pistol and getting back on the rocket-ship* Office365 in spaceship

View from Artemis II today. Crescent Earth. A view humans haven't captured since 1972.

hmm

In space no one can hear you Teams.

learning that astronauts have to use microsoft outlook in space is unspeakably depressing. we have set microsoft outlook free from the bounds of earth. polluting the stars with that janky piece of shit

moby-dick, his eyes enormous: from hell's heart you STAB at moby? for hate's sake you spit your last BREATH at moby? oh! oh! the great shroud of the sea for ahab! the great shroud of the sea rolling on as it rolled five thousand years ago!!!!

THIS bitch decided to perch on top of Vaporeon’s drink like it was public property.

I don't often post about Marvel Rivals anymore, but this game was insane... because both teams chose to do 5 healers and a DPS (or tank sometimes).

A long shift at the bakery. #purrs

Bear hug

I was! I just had a CT with contrast.

And why did you add a way to block all AI features, guys?

(worf voice) ICE agents are worthless despicable people, who by their choice of career have utterly disgraced themselves; there is but one honorable course of action available to them, but... (clenching teeth, visibly frustrated) i am bound by Community Guidelines, and can say no more on the matter

I’ve been told I make cute noises, what do you think? #cats

here’s a crazy fact: under congestion pricing, NYC subway ridership grew by more than the *total* number of riders on BART last year

In general, I'm reasonably satisfied after having switched to @kagi.com for search in my primary desktop browser several months ago. It usually returns relevant results, like this:
