I hear my neighbors yell from time to time but our kids are like 2 weeks apart in age and… We get it. We don’t do it, but we totally get it. And they tell me they don’t hear me singing in a silly voice when they must certainly do, and is perhaps embarrassing on the other end of the spectrum, lol.

Reminds me I have no idea where either of our spare car keys are. It’s quite a ticking time bomb we’re quietly ignoring for the time being. Lol

It’s weirder than you think. Oddly, you hurt your score with too many hot dog loans. Financial experts usually recommend somewhere between 2 to 4 outstanding hotdog loans being paid out at once, as too many indicates bad financial practice.

What works against you, though, is the per loan amount. You might never get above 700 as your loan cap is $1.50. For some reason, it looks bad to credit agencies if credit providers don’t set your cap high, even though technically you can’t unless you already have good credit. Given my former $150 store card I copayed for my mom lowered my score, I can’t imagine a $1.50 loan looking good on your report, lol.

Edit: oh. I know! Just buy several thousand hot dogs at a time. Problem solved.

That’s depressing, lol. Well, my guess is it won’t be 100% enforceable because there will always be computers with root access, and it won’t matter while Windows and Mac capitulate and 95% of the market complies because they’re used to signing up for shit. It might be illegal at the user level but not enforceable, much like a lot of other things.

Silver lining, another generation of horny teens will learn to love Linux the same way I was pushed into rooted devices at a young age.

Yes, I read that but how? We 100% should be more concerned with fed implementation than what states were doing, as I’m betting it’s going to be as stupid as UKs approach to app based verification.

I’m not sure they could even do that in a reasonable way when there are use cases like offline installs, no cameras, etc, but given Windows requires hoops to jump to avoid getting an MS account, that’s probably not going to be a concern of theirs (as Congress is exceptionally inept). At least the CA law seems to consider that, given it’s just self report.

I hope this just manifests as a transition from “I lied about my age to steam, Minecraft and pornhub” to “I let my OS lie about my age to steam, Minecraft and pornhub.”

But I get the fear that they’re going to take it too far and require ID, especially since the feds are a thousand times worse than the state governments in question.

If they just wait a moment, I’m sure there’s a Waffle House around the corner. “I got teleported to a Waffle House on the moon!” wrote one bugged out reviewer.

Actually I think this might just be an evergreen post since it’s always relevant.

Oh yeah… I remember that. I’m also sure they retweet fake posts too.

Y’know, silver lining, at least this is the extent they’re currently using AI for. Shitposts. I was much more concerned they’d release believable deep fakes of political opponents saying things they didn’t say.

Not that there aren’t people making that stuff, just nothing from an official Whitehouse account.

Y’all laugh but the US adopted this alphabet back in 2025.

Why not both?

Then couldn’t they just ignore that state in the tally? It’s just a quick way to disenfranchise your own state.

This is clearly a load bearing spice rack.

It would be so fucking wild if you invent a time machine and the very crazy Genesis story, including Eden, was true.

“I like FF7 but I wish instead of a JRPG, it was a generic ARPG” said an SE exec at some point, apparently.

Quiet city montage… lol.

I’m old enough to remember an April Fools Day bit Adult Swim once did where every show just had consistent, random fart sounds including serious anime like Ghost in the Shell. I’m certain this LLM would approve of such a work of (f)art.

It’s true, the only evangelizing I want to see on my feed is converting to Linux.
