I guess we’re just creating more Boomers now. Boomers 2: Illiterate Boogaloo

The classic sloppy reporting tactic of “dozens”. Somewhere between 1.5 and 33.3 dozen I guess?

I’m not sure it’s going to be that. That was the model for the last wave of tech advancement layoffs and job replacements. This one is going to be so much dumber.

It’s no secret that most companies are stagnant or losing money right now across the board. For many reasons, disposable income is way down, COVID mentality change (people decided they wanted to live instead of just consume), and products have just been getting worse. So, CEOs are using AI to replace jobs that AI cannot yet replace. It immediately makes their bottom line look better for investors while doing nothing useful. This will bite them in the ass soon but they’ll say AI was oversold and it’s not their fault. Meanwhile, they look like the nothing they’re doing to improve their company is working and will survive another day.

Out of Sight being the best one.

Do they seriously think an extremely liberal, gay as hell power bottom cannot out-fart almost anyone on the planet?

These were all good. This one made me laugh.

Up to being bought by Chrysler in 1984 they were pretty solid. Because they were so basic. Not much to break, since they were boxes with wheels and that’s it. I had a 1990 YJ Wrangler and it was the biggest pile of shit I could imagine being assembled on purpose.

Damn, Thanos! We are overpopulated, I agree. But human numbers have always (and I do mean always, as long as we’ve been able to track it) adjusted to the sustainability of their environment given all but the most dire of economic factors that might affect that. Right now, we’re seeing a rapid decline in children being born throughout the world. Just because it doesn’t happen on a particular time table doesn’t mean it’s not correcting itself.

No wait. It’s got to be your bull.

This is Be Kind Rewind for Internet searches. Love it

This really should read as:

Republicans defund regulation budgets to appease meat producers’ donations.

Regulators: “there’s three of us”

Meat producers: “we have no incentive to follow existing laws and standards which were lax as hell to begin with.”

Not when it’s done badly. I believe there was one on the front page of Lemmy just this morning.

The trick is waiting for Boomers to die. This is where your nursing skills can really pay off…

I get that. But this is for kiln dried wood. And this particular issue I’m bitching about isn’t about net loss. It’s selling wood using an internally useful measuring system instead of how the consumer would actually think about it. It’s adding needless complexity, in my mind, when there’s enough factors to consider.

I agree with this. Use whatever system you need or want internally, but there’s no reason to force whatever archaic or industry system onto a consumer. Logcutters also use a 1"=1/4 system and that is how they sell wood. A piece of wood that is 2" thick is sold as 8/4. Not 2". I get that they have their system but it seems dickish to force the consumer to use that system. There could be a good argument for it, but I’ve not heard one beyond “what, can’t you do math?”

My Unraid NAS and media server is called Madmartigan. The Proxmox server running Home Assistant, second Pihole instance and my bookmark manager and such is called Willow. My raspberry pi that I use for testing and such is called Brownie.

“We surveyed over fifty police departments and found…”

This is correct. We waste a solid 1/3 of the food we produce and import. And we’re nowhere close to maxing out our food production. We just prevent people from having access to it.

Farmers. Farmers’ mums.
