GIVE TURD

We don’t have a democracy, we are a constitutional republic

This is the new battle cry of American fascism.

The opening of the American Declaration of Independence literally states that the country is going to establish a government that derives “their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

Yeah, sometimes you’re in BFE and there isn’t much around. Other times you just want to eat fast food in your car like an animal and watch a TV show that is too embarrassing to watch on the couch with your significant other.

I’m not. It’s in the article.

Users who had their coin balances removed will be given silver turds.

And don’t forget, depending on the charger, you could need to burn 15 to 45 min filling you battery up on a trip. The games and videos are primarily there to make the charging experience suck less.

Electric cars have a very legit use case for this… extended charge times. The video games and streaming apps are so you can kill time.

Telsa’s have pretty fast charge times, but even those are slower than a gasoline fill up. Moreover, if you get cursed with charging at a non-Telsa station, you could be there for quite a bit.

Where do you live?

Sounds like a lot of this is for non-generative AI. It’s for dumb things like that frequently used emoji feature.

Knowing how my legal teams have worked in my tech companies, I’m a bet that a lawyer updated the terms language to be in compliance with privacy legislation, but they did a shit job, and didn’t clarify what specifically was being covered in the TOS. They were lazy, and crafted something broad, so they wouldn’t have to actually talk to product or marketing people in their org.

For you. It’s dynamic and the links keep changing location now. That bar is terrible now.

Best part…

The web filter is in that stupid filter carousel, and it’s just off of the screen on mobile. So you have to swipe left from the top of the screen to view web results.

I SAID RAGE COMICS

A model trained on jokes about bacon, narwhals, and rage comics.

A spirt visited me and told me this.

Luckily that spirt read the article and watched the video in it.

IMHO, the thing that’s being promoted here isn’t the leaf blower. It’s the university’s engineering program and the opportunities it’s providing for students.

I kind of doubt someone has this University blog post in their deck of Spring 2024 leaf blower marketing initiatives.

This is the kind of stuff that the people managing internships handle in a company. Companies do this for talent acquisition. They don’t even do it for the cheap labor, because coaching students usually gobbles up a lot of your IC’s time.

Good engineering and industrial design programs find opportunities for students to work with real companies on real products.

Back in the day I used to be the student that published stuff like this to our product design department’s website. The point wasn’t to demo tech or sell a product, it was to make the program look like something worth applying to and donating to.

If a brand was name dropped, it wasn’t because we wanted to sell their thing. It was because we wanted to let applicants and alumni know that we were offering real world experience with recognizable companies. It’s basically like a reverse internship. Department faculty finds companies to bring to the students, as opposed to students applying to companies.

For the people not reading the article. This is not about gas leaf blowers.

The challenge was to take an electric leaf blower and make it even quieter.

This is about making an electric leaf blower even quieter. The students were not given a gas leaf blower to designer around.
