Dual zone climate control in cars saved my marriage. I mean, the marriage ended later anyway, but the point is I didn’t have to keep the whole car at female temperature while our love was dying.

A.I. is coming for everyone's job. Now it's replacing the people who tell scientists they're wrong. substack.com/profile/5631103…

There is nothing Apple Photos "memories" likes more than random weddings I attended 25 years ago with people I don't talk to anymore.

I see @AnthropicAI has decided to enter the standard phase of fixing things that aren't broken. Claude's ability to open folders through the finder has been broken since their Oct 6 update. It had worked perfectly. Guess they needed to "improve" it.

I wonder if @YouTube could make it so that literally every search of any phrase pulls up pages of music videos instead of things involving the phrase. Oh wait. They did.

Nothing has ever gone wrong for Americans when it comes to Saudi Arabia and planes.
BREAKING: The U.S. has approved a potential $24.3 billion sale of 48 F-35 stealth fighter jets to Saudi Arabia. The State Department says the proposed deal would have “no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness.”

There is simply no organization in existence or in the entire history of mankind with a more confusing login process than @ADP. 100% the worst, bar none.

I'm not the only one who sees that my neighbor's tree is haunted and/or is a weirwood tree from Game of Thrones, am I?

Claude is great, but of all the AIs it is the least likely to ever know what time of day it is or even the date because @AnthropicAI somehow never thought to make it look at the local computer's time & zone instead of the server's time & zone (which is UTC).

Claude doesn't write my emails for me. But I do use him to de-asshole them. Since I tend to be annoyed at literally anyone I have to email I often ask Claude to make me less of an asshole and he's been very helpful.

Hey at least when Sophie fouls she prevents the shot. 😂
Let’s not forget Sophie Cunningham did this to Jacy Sheldon last season. The same people making comments calling out DiJonai Carrington and her fouls today are the same ones that applauded Cunningham last year. YOU CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.

When exactly did @YouTube's search break to the point that no matter what you search the results are either music videos or shorts made by anime fans?

I'm having a straight white man meltdown about the fact that there is no 70mm IMAX in a 300 mile radius of my fat white body.
