Like others have pointed out, It was indeed very much tongue-in-cheek.

Just what we needed, more surveillance /s
These days, most companies that work with web based products are under pressure from upper management to “use AI”, as there’s a fear of missing out if they don’t. Now, management doesn’t necessarily have any idea what they should use it for, so they leave that to product managers and such. They don’t have any idea, either, and so they look at what features others have built and find a way to adapt one or more of those to fit their own products.
Slap on back, job well done, clueless upper management happy, even though money and time have been spent and the revenue remains the same.
I said “jesus christ” to a teacher (3rd grade’ish), why I can’t remember but probably because I was asked to do something I felt was silly. Turned out the teacher was very religious and accused me of blasphemy, and was really up in arms about it. He invited my mom to a meeting to discuss the issue but, according to my mom, quickly dropped the whole thing when my mom had said “jesus christ” 5 times in the same amount of minutes.
I guess I know who taught me to use that phrase.
If you’re diligent you could be looking at decades of not installing crap!
Using the same word for swearing and having sex helps, I’m sure.
Same in Norway, many providers have been offering 10Gb for a while now.
I see Pratchett, Making Money up there, too. I like this guy.
I dreamt I visited Jurassic Park with my class from elementary school. Everyone got eaten except me.
Reminded me of a comment a colleague made during a hotel stay in the US, “they got six people greeting me as I enter the lobby but no one to fix my shower”.
I’m all out of RAM, this is the best I can do.
Not every day you get to view the clouds up close?
Except where trams are involved. Those have a license to kill.
Me neither. It was just ridiculous. When it got to the point where the floor board on the Eclipse mysteriously fell out it was just too all too much, for me. How people who know and love cars ever could think that movie was great is beyond me.
I saw one of the later movies in the cinema, since my date wanted to see it. I felt it was some of the worst goo I’d ever seen, while my date thought it was “fantastic”. I remember thinking “this isn’t going to work out…”, hehe.
Harald Fairhair would probably be amazed at the lack of bloodshed during political discussions.
A plug-in hybrid is cool, to me, in that I can charge it and use it as pure EV for my daily commutes, but if I forget/am unable to charge it it don’t have to worry for a second. And I don’t need to worry about the range on my 500km roundtrip to my cabin (full charge + full tank equals ~1100km range on my Prius).
Also, fuel consumption is relatively low, so whenever I do have to burn fuel I’m not breaking the bank.
Apparently a foldable OLED screen is, typically expected to last at least 200.000 folds. That’s more than a 100 folds/day for 5 years. I’d take my chances on one, I think.
Uninstalled.
Luckily I/people I interact with never used it much.
