Apple IIs were in my school but my first computer at home was a 486 sx 33mhz from Midwest Micro

One use for AI would be to eliminate all ads. The AI giveth and AI can taketh away. Lol

Hey looky at the trees… From what I understand there’s not much to see. Nature has reclaimed the site.

I’d rather just not have a tv

I like my coffee but I don’t find it hard to avoid Starbucks. Plus they’re not even nice places to go. They’ve been enshitified big time.

Yay more shit that nobody asked for.

I grew up in a rural area where most of us had well water. Our school would however have a program where the kids would get fluoride treatments. It basically was just a mouthwash.

I always thought it was a bad idea and never did it. However my parents did it, and I’m sure a lot of what is known about them applies to me.

One thing about boycotting the likes of Amazon is that I realize that I don’t need any more junk.

The people in the arts who make lots of money are the exception, not the rule.

Hopefully the patients can at least sue the guy.

I do that but every 30 days the short videos come back and then I have to click on the dots again. It’s not difficult but it’s kind of a dirty trick by YouTube. I look forward to something like peertube reaching critical mass. If YouTube continues to abuse their users, gets too spammy, gets too expensive with the paid tier, I think people will jump ship. Peertube isn’t ready for prime time yet.

I bit the bullet and jumped ship. It was hard deleting my account with all the friends and family following me, but I realized that FB isn’t a worthwhile substitute for real relationships. In fact I think it was detrimental to my personal life. People are also get very fake on those services.

Losing users is a must for these services. If people stop using them then they become worthless. I personally find the advertisement and the shady manipulation going on in the background as a deal killer for me. I hope decent people realize they don’t have to wallow in spam and nastiness of those awful services; that civilized and spam-free alternatives are out there.
