Oh hey look a block button.

Zero tolerance. No conversation. No benefit of the doubt. Zero.

I’d only heard of him in the sense of him being one of a flock of fascist wastes of oxygen who grifted around the country spewing hate and violence and making people’s lives worse and more dangerous. He was a name on a list of scum who we’d be better off with them never having been born.

All I’ve learned about him since is that I was fucking right. Having him not exist anymore is a net gain in the long term but he’s still pissing me off for now by the fact that I’m wasting my fucking time and my fucking attention and my fucking blood pressure on his fucking bullshit even more than I was.

He can fucking rot with Rush Limbaugh and Joseph Goebbels and the rest of their fucking detestable cabal of fucking filth. If I never hear his fucking name again it’ll be too fucking soon and the universe still owes me my fucking time back from every moment I’ve wasted having to fucking be exposed to this shit.

Truly the devil’s panties.

A machine that cannot feel hunger must not be allowed to choose whether to feed a person.

AI slop AND US politics. Great.

Nobody fucking cares and nobody is going to fucking care.

I gave them a fair shake. Never again.

And if I can’t, I’ll just stop using the internet for anything I don’t absolutely have to.

I don’t really need my smartphone. A laptop will do.

Except that’s exactly what we want. Google services that respect privacy and aren’t full of ad cancer.

Banned in North America in 3… 2…

It doesn’t.

That’s fine.

For $700 I’m not interested in compromising my own convenience for theirs.

I didn’t keep track of how that lawsuit turned out.

That said, it is labeled “Full Self-Driving (Supervised)” on everything in the car.

Supervised as in you have to be ready to stop this kind of thing. That’s what the supervision is.
