Again,

Ha! Welcome to corporate

There is a catchphrase in corporate - "Minimum viable product" and it means just that, memory leaks and all.

Thankfully, science will inevitably sus those papers out eventually, as it always does,

In the future, all search engines will have an option to ignore any results from 2022-20xx, the era of AI slop.

"Ohhhh, that tired old OS was using AI 1.6. We've been offering the new OS -now with AI 1.8 - for 7 solid weeks now! We recommend you upgrade now, as we're shutting down AI 1.6 on Tuesday."

Warmest winter on record, so far.

AEC does a good job of nudging people into getting their enrolment details organised. I changed addresses a little while ago, and it was 30 seconds online to update, with confirmation a few days later via SMS and email.

Well, anything's possible, I say we give it a try and see what happens.

My son ordered me a cube with a bit of silver from the US, it's part of a periodic table set.

It was delayed a little, and when it arrived at his door there was a little note from Australian customs basically saying, "This is cool and everything, but don't go ordering the radioactive elements from this place unless you have all the right paperwork, ok?"

Change your thought patterns. Minimise their actions in your mind.

They are not "psychopaths", they are just "idiots".

They do not "counterattack", there is no "attack" from your side. They are just "being a nuisance". Frame all the bumps and thumps as renovations if you want.

When they make a noise, turn UP your tv, just a little, so you can hear it over it. "Gee those renovations of theirs are a bit noisy, maybe I should put in a complaint."

When they rattle the ceiling of their apartment, "Hey it must be time to vacuum, thanks for reminding me. I'll do it now while you're renovating and making noise so it doesn't disturb you too much".

"I hear that plants respond to music so I'm just going to leave some on for Ferris, my pot plant, while I go out shopping for a few hours this morning" - Not too loud, just loud enough for Ferris to enjoy it. If you hear a lot of thumping it must be just them taking the opportunity to renovate while you can't hear them. I do hope they don't damage their ceiling with all that thumping while you're out, oh well.

All that activity on their part takes a lot of energy, your activities take very little. Which one do you think is going to end first?

but they're really not providing any substance for anything.

As mentioned by someone else:

"If you don't know, vote no."

If it seems stupid, that just means that it was cheaper to do it this way.

Program ROM/EEPROM + RAM, or just RAM connected to a USB interface with a reset line tied to the camera processor? See the USB device ID connect , fill the ram with the camera software, toggle processor reset , off you go.

It's only a matter of time before Google borks the fine grained notification system in Android in the quest to serve you more ~~ads~~ information to enhance your life.

Apps get one chance with me. As soon as I get an unsolicited notification begging me to interact with them, that's it, 100 percent silenced.
