I personally like AI in its current state, still goofy and not a valid replacement for people. I definitely don’t like that all of these corporations are justifying their billions in spending by forcing it into any and every app they can think of!

Why do I need Gemini to suggest a list of items I’m gonna need in my notes app that I likely opened to create a list of things I knew I already needed?

“we found your fingerprints on the body”

Yeah I may have reached my hand inside and felt around a little my bad

Hey! As a person who used to use reddit but got tired of how terrible it was then moved to the first Lemmy instance I could find, I… Agree? I’m not really sure.

I can kill a mosquito by clapping my hands

The pig would probably think I’m petting it or something

Edit: for the record I mean no ill will, I just thought it was funny to say because well, mosquitos are tiny!

YES

Don’t forget “getting 1 response to your comment”!

Well no wonder I never had more bandwidth, it’s all your metrics eating it up!

With a lot of solar equipment, the tech support has access to a lot of settings us installers don’t, so we’ve had times where we tell the tech that we’ve done everything we can, including restarting it (and with my experience with Generac inverters, restarting them can and will break something!), and sometimes it really feels like they do click a magic button, say “how about now?”, then it works

I have a dark secret. I used to have CenturyLink DSL around 5 years ago, and the tech asked me if I had restarted the modem during one of the many stints where I would get bits per second rather than the “10mbps” we were supposed to get

I lied every time. I’m sorry CenturyLink tech support employee, but man did CenturyLink suck, and man am I absolutely sure that it never fixed the issue.

At one point I filed a complaint with the FCC and got a letter from CenturyLink telling me that they knew about the complaint!

I had a laptop a while back with a fingerprint scanner that would work for one day, then stop working completely. I reinstalled the drivers, and it would work for a day and then stop again. I eventually gave up using the fingerprint scanner until I “upgraded” the laptop to Windows 11, and it worked again. No idea if it still works, since I rarely use that laptop now

You could either have the world’s worst luck, or you are genuinely cursed

Alternatively, you keep spilling coffee on your devices and going into a blind fit of cleaning rage that blocks out the memory of the original coffee spill

Don’t kill the magic!

I gotta learn how to levitate 40 feet off the ground on my photo walks, man

I also need to go on photo walks, man…

I guess I might be evil but when I made APIs for my projects I do this, since I blindly accept the response then look at the JSON to see if it was accepted or not

Something like

if (body_has(JSON)) do_stuff_with(JSON) // including error handling if the response has an error else error_no_json()

I do this since I feel like JSON errors should be separate from HTTP errors

if (request.ip != myip) return ErrorCodes.NotFound

And an ipv6 version for all you up 6 fans

if (request.ipv6 != myipv6) return ErrorCodes.NotFound

I learned how to flintknap a little, and it was super fun. I heard buying rocks can be expensive if you don’t live near where they’re plentiful, but what hobby doesn’t get expensive? I went to the class with my brother in law and he got absolutely lost in the sauce working on his flint, and didn’t talk to anyone else there

It can be tiring but it’s definitely fun seeing what you’ve made (even if you’re not very good at it like me) and besides, you get to say you’re hitting rock/buying rock so there’s even more fun to be had!

My dad has a TC Maserati (Chrysler labaron) and it’s “breaks” just recently stopped working for no reason, so very accurate

I recently saw one in Tennessee too, and I was pretty lucky I was wearing sunglasses driving by it! It was early afternoon, with clear skies all around lol

For the record, the one I saw didn’t have a boot on it, yet

I actually thought they looked too thin too, but in the sense that it might help it look more like a hot wheels car (and a little better to look at)

Now I’m just thinking it was supposed to have wider tires and they changed that too

Hey gpt, how do I split a list object in C#?

“Question marked as duplicate: '‘How do I create a variable in Python’”

What? That doesn’t help at all.

“You seem to be confused. You asked how to split a list in C#, and I provided information on how to create a variable in Python”

It has to be Kepler, my terrible home grown interpreted language that has none of these features!

JK it’s gotta be JavaScript
