I hope some day AI will be incorporated into a podcast player to be able to know the difference between an add and the podcast and automatically skip all adds. Finally, there would be a good use for AI :)

This is where we could use a browser plug in that uses AI to learn what an ad is and skip it for us. Now we just need someone to start working on it.

Next they will be using your web cam to take pictures of you because ... reasons. Then they will turn on your mic and record so that if you verbalize thoughts that don't make it to your computer screen you can recall those too. Where does it end? I don't want to know.

People need to stop thinking about Republicans vs. Democrats and starting think in terms of people vs. the government. We might be able to make positive change if we united.

My original response (below) was posted to the wrong post. Duh ... me. Please ignore.

"The company said any fluctuations it decides to test in the future “would be designed to benefit our customers and restaurant crew members.” " How sweet. They're doing it for us. What a bunch of BS.

I should have mentioned, I am running the Flatpak version of Firefox on Kubuntu 23.10

 

After installing Firefox 123.0 I ran a Mullvad Connection check https://mullvad.net/en/check and found I had a DNS leak. Turns out that Firefox had changed the settings under "DNS over HTTPS" so that my Mullvad DNS wasn't being used any more. After changing this setting to "off" in Firefox, the Mullvad check passed.

I always wondered how bragging about how long you worked was considered by some as a good thing. The "higher ups" must have used some fancy tricks to get people to think that way. It never worked on me though :)

Switch location in Mullvad. I often find that solves any issues I see (such as poor speed or too many captchas ...)

Even though I am sure I didn't get all the imagery, I did enjoy it enough to watch the entire video. I did pick up on some of the anti-vax stuff and did not like that.

The only way to know if a Black Friday price is good is to know the usual "regular" price of the item. That takes planning to jot the price down a month or more in advance and then wait to see what the Black Friday price is. It's all a game.
