So, I know this was kind of explored in the show, but I was thinking about it and wondering: what would it be like if something happened to the miniaturizer while someone was already mimi? This was the result.

I kind of liked the idea of Chris getting to be the protective one for a change. Poor Martin doesn't even have his CPS, so he can hardly do anything.

I’m all for hotels adding enrichment to my enclosure (how does this shower work?), but sometimes they cross into just baffling design choices.

Here is the lamp. Sleek, smooth…no, I mean completely smooth. I groped this thing so much in search of an off button, I thought I’d need to buy it a drink.

After groping failed, I tried stroking all along its length, and it turned off! What had I discovered?

This. That almost imperceptible sensor. Stroke up - on. Stroke down - off.

Look, I get that this is cool and probably comes with instructions at home, but why would you put this in a hotel room sans instructions?! I predict that 90% of the time people have just unplugged it.

Apparently infants can’t buy energy drinks at that store.

Looking at the Google AI overview fails, and just thinking... how the fuck did Google not realize how absolutely stupid this idea was? Even I, a 15 year old who can't even drive a car yet, has enough common sense to realize that AI using the internet as reference for it's answers is going to end horribly. The internet is a cesspool, and although there can be helpful things found on it, it's more than obvious that the AI is getting it's information from a lot of memes.

A lot of these have managed to correct their mistake, but you can see where they got their original misinformation from.

(A fruit that ends in um is plum in case you're curious)

Here's my test. As you can see it's STILL wrong,

and here's the comment that the AI originally mistaked for true information.

Anyways, AI is stupid, it can only really gather data and steal from other people, it doesn't have the common sense and intuition and experience that we have that helps us determine what's true and what's obviously not, it will never understand as much as us, and companies are failing us. Ok bye!!

Was in the middle of reading a fic Post when my browser forced shut down. It was about a Shen Yuan who got a different system that attached itself to a fan.

Anyone seen it?

Having been through the wash twice seems to have finally properly caught up to my earbuds.

For the past week or so they’ve been pausing media that has audio, switching from YouTube to the music on my phone, and been activating voice control even though it’s completely turned off in my settings.

This only happens when I have the buds plugged in, usually when I’m playing something, but it just got done activating voice control 3 times in less than a minute, and starting music playing when I was doing nothing, so, yeah.

I’m wondering if I can hold out till my birthday in hopes someone will get me the overear headphones I have wish-listed.

I’d get some myself but I’m broke af.

Pain.

Having music of my choice to listen to makes certain tasks actually possible or at least much easier, as well as just being a normal thing I do, I usually have music on for at least a few hours each day, so this is a real wrench in my daily life.

Some days they’re better than others, sometimes it seems like it only happens in the evening, etc. but gosh dang is it frustrating as hell.

Anyways.

I should go to bed.
