Sir, this is a Wendy's

With streaming balkanized into so many individual providers, it's hard to pay for more than a couple. So the Grandson has learned to discriminate ads from content, and as soon as a…

No. Wouldn't try it for free. It's possible there would be a market for this in genres where there is a strong parasocial connection to the author that drives a desire to simulate …

Grok is literally built to create nonconsensual porn, so this doesn't seem very surprising to have it sexualize translations. I plugged the tweet text into Google Translate and it …

Yep, for-profit healthcare is a bad idea. It's the main reason our USA healthcare costs so much.

So they are surveilling people they know are on the drug, and they are seeing those people buy less food. Wow. The surveillance bothers me a lot more than the fact Walmart might ex…

I'm guessing since many jobs don't let people use their intellectual capacity anyway (think service/retail/food), not much.

I handled this with AT&T by calling customer service, letting them know that the email was wrong, and then when customer service wouldn't do anything, threatened to login, change t…

I'd open a vegan restaurant/coffee shop with lots of board games and promote the game of Go.
