  • To me, “Influencers” are fucking terrible at “acting”, they’re desperate for attention and validation, and have little viable skills with anything online. They’re all obnoxious, loud, and overly energetic like in a state of panic trying to sell their souls for more views for ad revenue and sponsors.

    If they’re the next to be picked for lead-or even supporting acting roles, I’m out. I won’t touch another Hollywood movie again, which says a lot, bc I own about 5k DVDs, Blu rays, UHD BD, and yes, even several dozen in 3D…



  • The Matrix and The Terminator. Skynet is the start of what eventually becomes the machines winning, and enslaving humanity! It’s sort of a sequel storyline to Skynet and prequel to how the Matrix got started early on.

    I know in Reloaded, Neo talks to the architect and he explains how early versions are rejected for being too perfect, so the machines had some trial and error. The T800s and other cybernetic organisms evolved into what are now the agents where physical terminators were too resource costly and needed to be virtualized for this new dream world.



  • So, funny you say that. We’re not a big company, we had a very old 100Mbs connection up into a few years ago, and with TBs of data we could never fully backup anything offsite. Sooo many other services trying to eat up bandwidth, it was a joke. I installed a couple Piholes and pointed AD DNS to them and adblocking made such a difference while browsing!! Surprisingly, Pi 3B handled 1m queries in 24 hr periods without breaking a sweat!

    Edge and Chrome at very GPO friendly to lock stuff down for businesses. I do the same thing on purpose for security. Funnily enough I’ve got a couple users who hate big brother type stuff, very anti gov, conspiracy guys. I told them to get of Google and was stopped short to blab on about how Chrome is the best, etc. Fudds… Gave them a nice updated education on corporate overreach and they use Firefox and Ecosia now lol.

    I like to have options, and I tend to send best practice emails out with read receipts cuz I know most of them don’t know how to ignore them. 🤓






  • I have the opposite. I grew up with my parents guilt tripping me “starving* kids in Africa” stuff, and so my wife is one who rarely finishes a meal, snack, or dessert, so I’m “stuck” eating the leftovers haha.

    I’ve learned to order less while out, cuz she won’t eat leftovers either (or rarely does) so I get to try hers instead of it going to waste.
