Geez, eBay alerts have been broken since forever. Totally useless. Congrats to whoever snagged this 1968 Whole Earth Catalog for an absolute steal.

But don't worry everyone, there's a solution! Just pay them $12.99/month for your AI slop! While supplies last!

It's that time of year when all the senior devs are on vacation until January and everyone gets a glimpse of how fragile things are without an army of stressed, overworked, abused tech workers constantly fighting to fix garbage technology.

From a 2004 interview with RFK Jr., all the telltale signs of a budding insane right wing boomer. Obsessed with the Roman Empire, IQ, free market capitalism, Christianity, and a straight up admission that he's full of mercury. grist.org/article/gris...
Screenshot of an interview from grist.org:

"I have so much mercury in my body right now, having tested it recently, that if I were a woman of childbearing years, my child, according to Dr. David Carpenter, the national authority on mercury
contamination, would have cognitive impairment - permanent IQ loss."

It's insane that IMDB has been around for 35 years and can't handle basic searches.

Thanks Google AI. The singularity is near!
A screenshot of a google search result that reads:

AI Overview

The phrase "Scuse me while I whip this out" is a misheard lyric from the Jimi Hendrix song "Purple Haze". The actual line is "Scuse me while l kiss the sky". The misheard lyric is a humorous and often sexual pun.

Musk's "vision" is still teenager nerd shit. Meanwhile, the folks at Honda who built Asimo 25 YEARS AGO and have been researching this for decades say it isn't happening any time soon.

Meanwhile, right now, Meta just jumped on strong ad sales in their earnings. If you're still on FB, Instagram, Threads, or WhatsApp, you're part of the problem. You're enabling this.
