Oh, yeah, the hatred of smart TVs is totally overblown.quote:The patent centers around the idea of displaying ads on these TVs whenever they’re tuned to an HDMI input that’s paused or idle. Theoretically, this would allow Roku to present ads throughout your whole TV experience — and in places where it’s not viable to do so today. Your PS5, Xbox, Apple TV, or Blu-ray player could become yet another canvas for the company to continue growing its already-lucrative advertising business.

TotalLossBrain posted:Isn't it still somewhat common practice to pour oil over dirt roads to keep dust down? I'm sure it happened more than once, but speaking of superfund sites....Times Beach outside of St. Louis was a poster child for this poo poo. A contractor got paid to dispose of all of the dioxin from the nearby loving Agent Orange factory, and also to tamp down dust on the roads in Times Beach, so hey two birds one stone: https://www.epa.gov/mo/town-flood-and-superfund-looking-back-times-beach-disaster-nearly-40-years-later quote:Nearly 40 years ago, an individual was paid to spray material on the roads to suppress the dust in this small Midwest town. What the town didn’t know was that he was spraying those roads with a mixture of the highly toxic chemical compound, dioxin, and waste oil. When the town was inundated by a terrible flood in December 1982, that toxic mix spread beyond the roads and covered the town. It was so hosed the federal government bought the entire town, started shoveling all of the topsoil into incinerators, and buried everything else in the town in a giant landfill. I remember driving by the soil incinerators as a kid on the way to Six Flags. It was wild. Squiggle fucked around with this message at 16:12 on May 3, 2024 |

When I was a kid my cousins and I would go deep into the woods behind my grandparents' farm, where there were all kinds of tree-tunnel tractor trails down to large fields tucked into the woods and forest paths and streams to run along and explore, real Bridge to Terabithia poo poo. One day, we discovered the massive sinkhole where all of the surrounding farmers dumped old refrigerators, washing machines, cars, fuckin...whatever. It was clear some of them had been there more than 50 years. It's an image that always stuck with me.

Over the last few years we moved from phone lines to Cisco soft phones to Microsoft Teams calling, so now calling my office phone number comes in through Teams. Which sucks! I get constant spam calls on my work number and since I have absolutely no need for a desk phone, for years I've just silently forwarded everything to voicemail that I never check. Anyone I would ever conceivably need/want to talk to is an internal person who is also on MS Teams. So I just enabled "forward all calls to voicemail," problem solved. But at some point Teams stopped distinguishing between "some gently caress calling my phone number" and "somebody in-org calling me directly in Teams." It sends the bullshit calls to voicemail, but outright rejects any attempt to call me within Teams. So for the last three months, I've been uncallable and had no idea. On the one hand this forces everyone to just...message me, which I certainly prefer, but I'm not trying to be unavailable to the people who actually need me. gently caress you Teams!

Jeans rule, big ups to jeans. They're the only pants I DO wear. I learned to accept the lycra-infused denim after several years of bitching, and learned to use a sewing machine just so I could patch my favorite two pair. Not saying that's a solution for everyone, it's just been nice to slip into the "repair what you can" ethos of our parents and grandparents where I can. Not like a lot of poo poo is even repairable these days... Buy jeans in store, not online, I swear jeans specifically are one of those things that online storefronts absolutely sell lovely cheaper versions of.

rafikki posted:United had been completely egregious with their up charges in the last year or so. Looking at an extra $80 for an exit row seat these days. Even just sitting somewhere that’s not the rear end end of the plane is $20-30. It's very clear that they've used the seat selection map data to heatmap where people choose to sit and then added a loving upcharge to all but the bottom ~15% of seats. There's a sweet spot around row 25 or so where the aisle seats still cost extra, but the window seats don't. I just sit in the loving back now on purpose. Closer to the shitter anyway. Also got asked to upgrade to business class for a flight from Denver to Boston for 1800 dollars

euphronius posted:For some reason there is a country wide shortage of dental hygienists True, and for years! My father-in-law is a dentist, and has been very successfully poaching hygienists from corporate-run practices that treat them like poo poo, abuse their semi-contractor status, and short them hours to keep them "hungry." He does this by doing things like "being flexible" and "giving as many hours as they want" and "paying them." Was also fascinated to learn that a lot of hygienists work for several dentists at a time because most of these goons only give them like 10 hours of work a week. It sounds...bad. Hygienists are the daycare professionals of dentistry. Squiggle fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Jun 6, 2024 |

Your "Desktop" location is redirected to a onedrive hosted folder. Onedrive's desktop folder is your desktop folder (you likely still have a user folder under C:\Users\(username) that will be empty). Wait, is this not a corporate device? Is this just....what Windows 11 does automatically? Redirect desktop/documents/pictures/etc? gently caress.

We have had the same computer metaphors and file systems for like .. 40 years I mean, the Desktop is still there, but... yeah, known folder move is great and useful, for documents. Including Desktop was always a psychotic choice to me, but then again people keep files directly on their desktop which is also psychotic to me.
