on Garbage Trucks Now Have AI Cameras To Score Your House and Clock Code Violations in c/technology@lemmy.world · 17 Sep 2026
My city has them now. A friend of mine got flagged for overfilled bins. Before it only flagged you if the driver did, and the driver only would if it was egregious. The AI doesn’t GAF and reports fucking everything apparently.

on Balding's Basics in Getting Old and Grumpy in c/animemes@ani.social · 12 Sep 2026
I got super lucky here. I have 4 uncles on my mom’s side. All bald. My maternal grandfather… Bald. I was told they were all bald by 20, and I would be too. Because of that, I was paranoid about putting product in my hair, and only ever did shampoo and conditioner. Another thing I did / still do is rarely cut my hair and never wear hats. I’ll go once every 6 months, or sometimes even years. The thought process was I didn’t want my body to think the hair wasn’t wanted / needed. Whether those things helped? No clue. It’s very possible that I just won the genetic lottery. I’m now pushing 40, and while I have a bit of a widows peak going, it’s not super prominent, and other than that, I have all my hair.

I just had an opportunity for a job at a company that does autonomous weapons systems. That was a tough one to turn down.

on Tesla’s Cybercab has been deployed, and it’s already under investigation in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
I like how they only have 2 seats. Whenever I take a cab, I’m looking to have 1 seat for me and maybe 1 other person. I don’t ever want to take my kids or friends with me. More braindead bullshit from the dipshit fascist.

I would have, but they owed me money, so I needed to get my money.

Huh, I just assumed they got rid of them when legalization happened. TIL

The IRS made me since I used a different service to file my takes this year. It was a pain in the ass. Apparently my existing id.me login wasn’t enough, they wanted a video call or a scan of my face. There was no other option. It was a pain.

on Comcast turns your Xfinity WiFi into a home motion detector in c/technology@lemmy.world · 24 Aug 2026
Yeah, I had a company called Wave that was since bought by or rebranded to Astound. I’ve had it about 8 years, and had maybe 2 outages. It’s night and day.

Bull. Fucking. Shit. If anything, this was something Lina Khan started, and Trump forgot to cancel.

So glad I was able to get an alternate ISP. A good chunk of my life, Comcast was the only high speed ISP in the area.

on Comcast turns your Xfinity WiFi into a home motion detector in c/technology@lemmy.world · 24 Aug 2026
It’s always been a ripoff from the start. The modem / router is far cheaper than whatever they charge you to rent it over a year. Additionally they were broadcasting public wifi hotspots from your rented modem for a while (probably still are) and now this. Having said that, walk into any random friend’s house, and what will you see? A big stupid rented Comcast modem.

Agreed, but will people even buy them? I like to think not, but how many morons got new iPhones for “Apple intelligence”

Tech is so fucking cooked. They are clearly out of ideas and grasping at straws. This is the dumbest thing I’ve heard… So far.

on Why Is Everyone In Tech So Sad? in c/technology@lemmy.world · 12 Aug 2026
I’ve been taking a sabbatical essentially. Living off savings that was supposed to be for a down payment on a house (lol). Got to do a lot of traveling with the kids and I’ve been looking for a similar role elsewhere but haven’t secured anything yet. Thankfully, my wife still makes good money and we’re doing OK financially, but I’m not thrilled about my prospects in my field. It’s hard to be optimistic in a fascist AI hellscape.

I resonate so much with a good chunk of that. I legit left my job because I couldn’t take it anymore. My job while different went from negotiating multi-million dollar contracts, and securing pricing agreements with manufacturers to essentially being a spreadsheet jockey after a re-org. They wanted all the interesting parts of my job done by commodity management and reduced my role to something a fucking monkey could do, but asking for 47 different reports that essentially all had the same data just slightly different for dickheads 1,2, and 3 in the C-Suite, and overloading us with so much of it that it took 80 hours a week to complete. It was a fucking nightmare.

on Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years in c/games@lemmy.world · 9 Aug 2026
Everyone, grab your Stadias!
I have the feeling the new version’s tagline will be something along the lines of
“WINAMP, IT REALLY SUCKS THE LLAMA’S CORPORATE COCK!”
