Coming soon to a gas pump near you.

How we’re reimagining Maps with Gemini Google Maps has two new AI features: Ask Maps and Immersive Navigation.

In typical Google fashion, they are taking a galaxy-sized steaming shit on the only good thing they still make.

Immersive navigation? No thanks. I don't need your new bad confusing interface with your LLM hallucinating destinations that don't exist into it.

Email them and ask why the basement doesn't fill up with stairs when the up escalator is turned off but the down is kept running.

In my vain attempt to get new Outlook to work this morning, I was exploring the idea of trying to start it in "safe mode". This led me to discover that I had an "Outlook (classic)" shortcut on my Start menu. Running it has allowed me to actually do work today.

Microsoft should *retrain

I got pushed onto the new Outlook because of a Windows glitch. I tried. I tried for weeks.

It is just an awful piece of technology. Microsoft should retain the people in charge of this to work in another field more in line with their talents, like landscape design, or welding.

Three decades of internet companies and the only social media that really matters anymore is the group chat.

Yup

I don't want to be part of a world where being kind is a weakness.

"Getting confused by their tv settings is what they do as a hobby."

"the only thing he didn't beat was the allegations"

Nobody you know is as young as they were in your memories.

It was explained as part of my joining the crew of an aircraft carrier that the nuclear reactor techs received significantly less radiation exposure than those working on the flight deck. This was because of the much larger, and completely unshielded, nuclear reactor overhead. 🌞

Apple has made trying to recover my old AppleID so hard I gave up and tried creating a new one. It failed. Even tried a new email and different phone number.

I guess I will just continue to encourage people to use their knowledge of how easy it is to pirate Apple TV instead of paying for it.

Traitor. Just change your party name to go with your alignment, coward.

I mean this with nothing but love for what you guys are doing.

I remember when Google was almost always better at everything they did than everyone else.

A decade+ ago I joined the waiting list for #GoogleFiber. Today I formally cancelled this week's long-awaited installation appointment entirely due to Google's unsupportable political stances.

Get in loser, we're tanking the economy

"Damn shame what they did to that dog."
- the landlord in "Coming to America"

Remember back in the days when using the "Let me Google that for you" website would give people the right answer?

A well-run American chain family restaurant is the pinnacle of mediocrity. Nothing is more whelming than when Applebee’s gets the order right and you didn’t have to wait for a clean table and your service is fine. It is perfectly adequate.

Go ahead, send that to the group chat so they can be disappointed, too.

I was going to have Google fiber installed, but I cancelled the appointment because Google cancelled Black History Month.

I love good storage solutions. Fancy closets, padded equipment cases, well-designed retail packaging are all very satisfying.

Putting stuff inside of other stuff is among humanity's greatest inventions. How could we have ever created civilization without baskets, pots, and boxes to keep it in?

If you soak rice overnight in chicken stock, is it cold-brew risotto?

I did not vote for Elon Musk.

Please dump his stock. Let's all so our part to Make Elon A Millionaire.

Do you think that we use the asterisk and other star shapes to draw attention to things because it takes advantage of some sort of evolved ability to quickly recognize and react to spiders?

Rick and Morty has been washed for a while, but a line that runs back into my head often is “your boos mean nothing to me, I’ve seen what makes you cheer!”
