I had several IOT smart plugs that have GPS built in.

why? why would it need to know its exact geographic location?!

after that I created an entire hardware segmented network that’s specifically used for IOT and cameras.

last I checked the router/firewall it’s on has blocked over 11million requests a month trying to access the outside.

I will never have a “smart” device in my home that’s connected to the internet. I’ll live like it’s the 1930s if I ever have to.

hey, military.

you see drone, you shoot drone. ask questions later.

same goes for nonmilitary personnel on base.

it’s likely you haven’t had interactions with them since you don’t have many comments posted. for example I have almost 3600 comments since 2024. I don’t even know if that covers the amount that I have deleted either, so it could be more.

I’ve noticed that for at least the last year.

it has gotten considerably worse in the last six months though.

half of Americans do too!

I have a couple open slots in my rack waiting for the day.

I reenacted what I did yesterday, today.

go to work. show up to meetings. jerk it. food. sleep.

I wasn’t sure how bad it was until I just checked.

last December I bought a 2x32gb DDR5 kit for $160. right now, same kit, almost $600.

this is fucking insane man.

fuck AI.

oh baby now!

somebody

edit: don’t know what’s more pathetic. my attempt to start the meme or the fact that !SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works holds a grudge for some dumbass reason.

Rickles had ZERO chill. fuckin hilarious though.

I wonder what would everyone do if instead he sang out of tune?

I have written so many scrapers in my life that would have probably helped thousands of people.

it was all for porn though. they shall never see the light of day.

that part works “ok”, but if you try to import any of the boxart or other metadata they have to be named in a specific way in order to be “found”.

out of a library in the tens of thousands of roms I barely have 500 with boxart or metadata.

the alternative is to go to each game and select the game. by hand. no thanks.

I get it, it’s far easier to have required set parameters to start with, but there’s a better way to achieve the same goal with fuzzy logic and simple prompts.

those aren’t claps you’re hearing. might just be the half that can still watch porn…

I can’t recommend it.

if you have 300+ hours to configure it and have your entire ROM library ordered in the exact way it likes, go for it.

otherwise, I’d skip it.

I really really wanted to like it, but I just don’t have the time or attention span for it.

(sits in his Lamborghini Plex while a beautiful blonde gives him a handy) I’m fine, mate. Maybe later.

I have wondered how the community would react if someone would start syncing popular YT content to PT. though it would be “illegal”, it might the the push for some viewers to release their grip from YT and allow content creators to see a better path.

man died doing what he loved most.

drugs.
