About what I’ll make this year as a CNC machinist. And at least I’m making tangible and useful objects for jet engines and rockets (space, not war). A lot of those C suite executives do jack shit for humanity and get paid more in a week than I make actually working all year.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is it safe to leave the front door unlocked at night in the US?
9·26 days agoWhen I lived in LA and Atlanta, motherfuckers would steal the milk out of your coffee. I kept everything completely locked up, put away and hidden. I now live in northern Wisconsin and I dont lock anything. I dont think anyone around here does. This is the safest community I’ve ever been a part of and I love it.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Republicans Complain That Cars Have Become Too Safe, Say It Must Be ReversedEnglish
201·5 months agoWhat the fuck is with this title? This has zero to do with being “too safe” and everything to do with cost. Inflammatory title.
That said, I highly doubt any cost that’s saved on the car makers side will be passed down to the consumer.
Far left is actually Dragon Fruit Splash™. Its got electrolytes.

Technology@lemmy.world•AI Slop Recipes Are Taking Over the Internet — And Thanksgiving Dinner | Food bloggers see traffic dip as home cooks turn to AI, inspired by impossible picturesEnglish
8·5 months agoMaybe if I could find a recipe for a simple corn bread without a trilogy worth of lore about the writer’s grandmother, they wouldn’t be in such a predicament. In terms of AI strengths, informational efficiency is paramount. I can think of fewer things I can search for with more worthless gunk tacked to it than a recipe.

412·6 months agoI’m installing Mint for the first time at this very moment. So far, it’s easier than I anticipated. Fuck You Microsoft.
Edit: bro, firstly, what the fuck and where did all this performance come from?!?! I vastly underestimated how many resources windows was hogging. I downloaded Steam (easy-peasy) and then Project Zomboid just as a test. This game runs like butter now. I was having major problems with it before. To the point I basically stopped playing. I know its just one example but I haven’t had my machine run this well in several years, I feel. Also, got Spotify running. Super easy. I need to figure out how to get my VPN set up (ProtonVPN) but so far, I’m kind of in shock. I can’t wait to actually dig in and see what I can do with this new setup.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•In shower today: "I bet my YouTube account is older than most of the people on YouTube." ...Yes, yes it is.
7·8 months agoSo crazy man. Im really glad I never had kids. Im 40 now and Im just now feeling like I may consider it. No offence to 20 years olds but seeing someone that age with two or three kids blows my mind. I feel like Im just barely old enough to even think about kids.
JPSound@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•AI bro discovering imaginationEnglish
19·8 months agoWhen I first got the game Factorio, for the first week, I was having full on hallucinations of the little conveyor belt arrows twisting and snaking all over my vision when I closed my eyes. Even when I blinked, id get a flash of some grotesque squirming abomination. Scared the shit outta me because I’d never experienced that before nor even heard of it. I was relieved when I learned it was a known thing but it was still distracting as all hell.
