Makes me wonder how many laptops seemed to randomly get bricked because it tried to update but then ran out of battery in the middle of it but the user just sees that their laptop had no battery left and then won’t boot properly after that, never realizing it decided to update itself.
Or my old windows 10 machine would wake itself up in the middle of the night to run updates that the group policy wouldn’t even allow it to download without my permission and then just sit there. If I hadn’t fallen asleep yet, I’d notice the monitor light up the next room and get up swearing at Microsoft until I tracked down where the wakeup timer was set and disabled it. Only to find it re-enabled after some updates.
Fuck Microsoft.

Yeah, it’s a bit of a double edged sword. On the one hand, you’re less likely to binge on food you find too salty or sweet, but on the other hand, it’s harder to find a treat you’ll actually enjoy when you do indulge.
He’s helping with the mathematical aspects of the emergency. He’s doing the best he can!
Maybe he was trying to get a job at Microsoft and showing off his relevant skills.
No one could possibly figure out what’s really going on, everyone knows error messages are confusing and intimidating and everyone just ignores them!
One factory job had a couple days of orientation in a classroom before we started on the floor, but on day one we ended with a tour of the work areas. As we went around, someone working recognized one of the others in my group as a local methhead/rampant thief. We found out that’s why he didn’t come back when we started working with the others.
Canada, if it’s day one. There’s a 3 month probation period where the requirements before you can fire someone are non-existent, though you still can’t fire someone for illegal reasons.
Narrator: It wasn’t the last time.
She get it real cheap used? They had a decent reputation because the new ones were mostly owned by old boomers that didn’t push them very hard, so they were reliable (relative to the rest of the used car market), though that didn’t help the way they looked or performed.
The Prowler didn’t look quite as lame but got extra lame points for following the trend set by the PT Cruiser.
Apparently the turning radius of the PT Cruiser was comparable to some large ships.
I bet he browsed with toxic mode enabled. Or maybe a special mode that just flagged the word blocks so he could promote them to user blocks.
Which also is what led to it being found, since db0, being a good dev, saw his whole instance was “incompatible” and dug into it to resolve it and figured out what was really going on.
A shadow is a 2d projection of a 3d object projected back onto 3d space.
Yeah but what’s done is already done!
It’s not like someone can just draw a time machine in the next panel so that he can go back and blurt something like “Tell her you have bad knees!” before the future version pops out of existence, leaving a confused past version wondering “Who? When?” Followed by a new arc where he doesn’t go to the bar because he thinks he needs to do something more important, wanders around looking for the woman he needs to inform about his bad knees (which aren’t even really that bad).
All to set up a scenario where an exhausted man sits down on a bench and is approached by another woman who flirtily asks him if he’s a bad boy and he absently replies that his knees are bad, she laughs and they fall in love.
And every now and then he thinks about that alternate reality where he somehow determined that “Tell her you have bad knees!” was enough to not only win his true love’s heart but also somehow led him to her. Though he loves his life with her, he obsesses with finding ways to unlock that advanced intellect in this timeline.
It’s not like you could just draw that, the past is in the past, worry about the present!
I’d say ugliest of all time went to another car that was featured on Breaking Bad: the PT Cruiser, appropriately used as a car gift that causes insult rather than happiness.
Though I’d bet the actual backstory to WW’s Aztek is Pontiac paid them a bunch of money to use it in the hopes that it would boost sales if the show became popular.
That’s not science. Science would be kidnapping a representative group from Sentinel Island and also kidnapping control groups from various places around the world to compare and rule out specific cultures only having that.
And then the results are dubious anyways because I don’t think there are any translators for the Sentinel Island language, so the only difference you’d see is their sudden rise to technological parity and then superiority to the rest of the world and somehow the control groups are all in contact with them, too, despite the control tests all happening local to their populations.
By the time you notice the pattern that the control groups are helping the Sentinels take over the planet, it’s too late.
Then the tables turn entirely and you find yourself kidnapped and led through a building that defies your imagination; rooms seen through hallways look too big, people are doing things you can’t comprehend in some of them. Not like weird rituals but it looks like science, but you don’t recognize any of the objects they were manipulating excitedly.
You are brought into a room and informed that they are trying to decide whether to punish you for kidnapping them or reward you for inadvertently unlocking their minds.

Though it does suck that attention is being diverted to LLM development because it’s so good at giving the illusion of being smart while still getting so much wrong.
