We need the headcount…but beyond that he’s as useless as it’s on a boar…

I’d rather he just exit this plane of existence…

That link is sketchy as fuck…no preview means my router is filtering it has high risk… Not going near it.

Signal is a better option… Or set up a matrix server…

Most of it absolute bullshit designed to piss people off… Hell even a lot of the “how to” videos contain a lot of rage bait. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a mechanic doing something obviously wrong (and stupid) to generate “engagement” in the comments…

So yeah, I go look something up like how to install a car wrap (last night’s video).

One guy was obviously a moron, skipped it. Next guy kind of seemed to know what he was doing. Then I was done.

Maybe if it’s an exceptionally good video I’ll give it a like, but I never comment and I NEVER subscribe. And when I’m done, I close the window.

I remember eating at some little hole in the wall at the foot of the Ponchatrain levy ordered some gumbo…and while we’re waiting I hear some lady in the back banging on what sounded like a pot lid yelling (in a distinctly creole accent) “Get back in there!”

pretty sure the fresh lobster was trying to escape…

Food was amazing though. ;-)

Man they’re gonna be pissed when she wins…

Cajun food is good as long as you don’t ask too many questions about what’s in the pot. ;-)

Whatsapp is just more shitty Meta product… Can’t be trusted.

I go there to look something up. Usually videos on how to replace something on my car, that sort.

I don’t understand blindly sifting through videos. What’a stupid fucking waste of time.

I spent about 6 months in New Orleans about 20 years ago… Out at Mischoud as part of a datacenter build-out… 3 months before Katrina hit. Talk about flushing a lot of hard work away…datacenters don’t do well when they’re under 3’ of water…

They rebuilt in Philidelphia. ;-)

So far I’ve found it to be Pretty good… I do pay the $20/month “pro” membership but I’m pretty sure most months I cost them money. ;-)

What drew me to perplexity is that it will give you footnotes on basically every statement so you can go read the reference material it pulled from. Not foolproof, but lets you see if it’s quoting an idiot or not… ;-)

What I most use it for is debugging. You can just copy/paste trace files or logs into it and it will read the log like a book and tell you exactly what’s happening.

I’m not saying it isn’t, but it’s the only thing that keep money flowing in to the state… There is literally nothing else worth spending money on there.

As much as I hate to endorse an AI (and I’m going to get hella down voted for it)…it’s one of the few actual good uses for it…

You can ask plain questions, copy\paste error codes, and it will actually walk you through fixing problems like a non-judgy person would. ;-)

Perplexity is my go-to when I’m troubleshooting something I can’t figure out.

“How do I open and edit a word document in Linux?” Is a perfectly acceptable question to ask, things like that.used it when I was building this server to work through some concepts I wasn’t familiar with.

Goodwill is your friend

Well…not yet…

Pretty Sure New Orleans is the only reason Louisiana still exists…

Good, let them hold a fucking bake-sale to buy a bomb…

Maybe if 2/3rds of them weren’t busy being actively evil they wouldn’t have to worry…

Amazon makes a product that actually works…as shitty as what they do to small businesses (and their own employees), their product does what it’s advertised to do…

I don’t see Amazon trying to get me to hate people the way Meta does…
