I recall a MASH episode involving this method and that’s how I learned about it. Radar was trying to save the rabbit from the procedure.

They missed using Access incorrectly with too many users and too large of a database.

I think this was the stock that the eventual “he ducks” crowd came from

I’m reminded of this. I still think the Maga culture are a bunch of ignorant turds but it does fit the narrative.

Don’t forget the smartest, and the most open freedom speech guy evar!

My Volvo Brick is offended and would like to have a word!

During the height of anti-vaxing the ones that opposed them had no issues smoking a pack a day and guzzling beer while exclaiming their bodies were a temple to preserve.

They didn’t see the irony that their temple was filled with toxic smoke and drenched in a form of poison, but hey let’s endanger more than just you and your loved ones, but the community at large with the anti vaxx stuff…

I’ve seen people argue the real numbers of the decline for China are much worse than they have shared and they may already be past the point of no return like Japan and South Korea. It’s going to be interesting to see how they handle an aging population.

Asia does have a more recent tradition of kids being the retirement plan so they might fair a little better than places like the US where that is not the norm anymore. The US with their infrastructure crumbling from underfunding and a general lack of care, should provide a good side by side comparison of the ride down with the differences of family versus industry support of seniors.

The real truth!

It’s a relief to see this post. After reports of the right starting a smear campaign against Rev. King I wasn’t sure what we were going to see here

It almost seems like a trap was set with the low interest rates, cheap mortgages, and plenty of stimulus money being released in the market.

Now with everything skyrocketing in cost to maintain so many have been found to have their hands in the trap.

I envision this as something Community would have pulled off if the rights were in place. I miss that show…

I use to hate Microsoft so much for this with their early hardware I used to buy.

They would abandoned the devices by not providing the drivers needed for newer versions of Windows leaving the device a brick unless you want to still run 98 or XP.

I have a few of these devices in my place as a part of my home automation. It’s been struggling the last year with not confusing the basics and not mixing up the beginning of a news podcast as my voice commands. It seems like the newest display I own has the most issues.

I generally just use it to control and schedule lights and devices with smart plugs. The odd time I try to set timers or reminders but I’ve never really been a big voice command person. I too struggle on the best way to get it to play my YouTube music likes list. I just cast from my phone instead.

One thing it mostly gets right is stopping whatever is playing.

With my Soundbar no longer being new enough to work with Google Assistant I’m not looking forward to when the rest of my smart lights, switches, and plugs join it as we go forward.

I recall some of these things being advertised as great news features for their marketing drives.

Funny they didn’t mention the 1000 people they laid off across the various Assistant divisions being a part of the reason for the changes : https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/11/24034124/google-layoffs-engineering-assistant-hardware

But I’m told by the right that’s the best way to get every last drop of adrenochrome out of them!

What do you mean? They used the best Saran wrap film they could find for this one…

That pan should would look a lot better with American Freedum!

I own a few of the Assistant displays and they are becoming more confused with the same daily commands for home automation.

I’m not sure if this will make things worse or better at this point.
