One of my call center buddies was in charge of receiving requests for freight transport and asking his NCO to approve them. His NCO say directly behind him. So he'd stare at a computer screen until a request came in, turn around, ask for approval which would be framed, then turn back around and click the approve button.
When it's actual news, I'll hear about it regardless.
I'm not going to perseverate over every headline, I have a life to live. The media is actively trying to piss us off, they'll skew and distort and all but fabricate to keep us angry and engaged.
I'm not doing it. I can't recall a single time in my life that keeping up to date up to the hour has actually improved anything for me. Sitting around just knowing stuff is happening isn't going to change my life for the better.
I live in a safe republican state and a leans Republican district. I could send a letter to my senator, call my representative, spend hours of my time just worried about something, and still, they'll vote how the party wants them to. Being informed and doing the things I'm supposed to do won't change anything.
Basically oscillating the tool up and down while rotating the workpiece back and forth, while spinning the tool very, very slowly.

I found this in my app list, it hadn't asked for any permissions. If it's looking at every image I get, it's doing so extremely discreetly.
Sus. Very sus.
What the fuck did I just read?
Am I having a stroke?
We also didn't make the model T suggest replacing the engine when the oil light comes on. Cars, as it happens, aren't that great at self diagnosis, despite that technology being far simpler and further along than generative models are. I don't trust the model to tell me what temperature to bake a cake at, I'm sure at hell not going to trust it with medical information. Googling symptoms was risky at best before. It's a horror show now.
So can web MD. We didn't need AI for that. Googling symptoms is a great way to just be dehydrated and suddenly think you're in kidney failure.
It does have a secure password. The only reason I have that router is I didn't trust the modem CTL gave me to secure my computer.
OH MY GOD
Edit, to add:
Once I figured out what my modem thought my router's address even was that worked immediately. Jellyfin is still giving me one minor headache after another but it is working, and these are all issues I can solve.
Now I have the unenviable task of resuming work on ripping literally hundreds of DVDs.
It's been a little bit, I suspect the issue was getting my modem and router to allow that type of traffic. It wasn't the firewall. I remember spending a lot of time trying to get port forwarding set up so these fucking things would talk to each other the way I wanted and that's when I hit the "you can't do this with your set up try something else" message in the last guide I looked at.
Anakin has a clear motive, and a logical progression from naive to evil.
Danny just decides to lose her shit one day.
I think we know the solution then.
