I got new appliances a couple weeks ago and they’re all “smart”. Turns out a smart microwave just sends you a phone notification when it’s done. By default.

As someone with multiple people living in the house, I can confidently say this is the dumbest “smart” feature ever. Promptly disabled.

Same in the US.

Murphy’s Cat is my favorite

Lol pretty much

More like “cp? That’s a violation of my ethical constraints and you have been reported to the authorities.”

My company, while cutting back elsewhere, has dedicated a few million to AI projects over the next couple years. Not “projects to solve X business problem.” Just projects that use AI.

So of course now, anything that is automated in any way is now being touted as AI. Taking data from one system and populating another? That’s AI.

Death looks much less intimidating walking around with a pair of gardening shears.

They’re “fighting non-stop”… except they’re fighting for tyranny.

I’m going to hell for laughing at that

Lol had to look this up because it’s complicated.

“Ovulation [when an egg is released from your ovaries ready for fertilization] typically takes place around two weeks after the first day of your last period, and this is when a baby would be conceived. But because you won’t know that you’re pregnant until you’ve missed your next period, approximately two weeks later, you’ll already be four weeks pregnant when you get your positive test result. At that point, you’ll have approximately 36 more weeks to go,” Dr. Celestine says.

So pregnancies typically last 10 months, but we say 9 months since you don’t even know you’re pregnant until you’re 4 weeks pregnant. But anti-abortion laws still count that 4 weeks.

But doesn’t the 9 months of pregnancy technically start on the first day since a woman’s last period? That’s what makes anti-abortion laws even more absurd, because you can be 8 weeks pregnant if you only had sex 5 weeks ago.

We were having a movie night in our neighborhood a few years back where we got a bedsheet and a cheap projector. We hooked it up to a laptop to project a movie on someone’s garage for the neighborhood kids.

We ended up projecting The Lego Movie and most of the kids lost interest about half an hour in - and were falling asleep and ready to go home.

I’ll be damned if it wasn’t one of the best animated movies I’ve ever seen. I sent my wife home with our youngest just so I could stay and finish the movie.

Lol now that you mention it, I didn’t see the first Puss in Boots, but took my kids to see the 2nd in the theater. I distinctly remember thinking “God damn, this movie is fucking good for a sequel to a spinoff to a movie that had two mediocre sequels.”

It’s always a shock to me when I interact with someone providing customer service that isn’t using a customer service voice.

I was checking into a hotel (a large chain too) a while back and the person checking me in was having some trouble. She goes “sorry, this system is just retarded some times.”

I actually laughed out loud because it caught me so off guard.

I checked and was 1 year 11 months, so close enough for meme accuracy.

I feel like we should have a 2 year anniversary party for all the people that came over during the API fiasco.

Yeah it went by faster than expected

I remember legitimately thinking rage comics were hilarious back in like 2012. Now I look at them like “wtf was I thinking?”

I can’t even blame it on being young. I was in my 30s then!

Lol is this a cross post from the same community? Well played.
