The web experience of the 90s and early 2000s is dead. The web has gotten shittier too.

I was going to type up some long rant, but why? This is a good example of why the web is dead. Fuck you author.

I welcome my fucking ban.

Well as a former chess champion, he must have seen this coming. Looking forward to seeing his next move.

I don't think I'd pass the personality test to get hired onto a job that tracked my time in the washroom.

Sure hope that those who are tracked that way unionize soon.

At first I LOL WTF, but then I remembered how far down the societal ladder goes. Some schools have a constant problem with vandalism. Knowing which kids are in the halls at what time will help narrow down which shithead ripped the sink off the wall.

Do business with business that have local offices. That way anytime something needs verification or seems off, go into the businesses building.

I just make a new words. Such as "dojober".

Dojober (noun): A handcrafted thing that makes it possible to do a job (i.e., complete a task).

Synonyms: widget, contraption

An easy fix for that would be to put a surge protector between the UPSs. (Joke)

------------

I bought three UPSs, all them used independently; but I had to stop using all of them. They all had a capacitor whine that was driving me crazy.

Be cool if alcoholics could get this level of sympathy from society.

Drink too much: it's a personal failing.

Eat too much: weight management is extremely challenging due to interactions between our biology, behavior, and the obesogenic environment.

A lot of millennials and gen Z's are choosing to not have kids. No real reason for those without kids to give a fuck, and those with kids have a larger carbon footprint than those without children.

It's electric SIR, how would forced induction help?

Lol

Send them to an auto parts store and have them ask for a supercharger for their Tesla just to confuse the clerk.

Obligatory: I wouldn't actually do this but it's amusing to think about.

Wow. I did not know that.

It's likely 90% of the population don't follow this tax law.

Due to the anti-consumer behavior of all mega-corps, presume the worst.

If a person chooses not to connect TV to the internet, how can I know with 100% certainty that data extraction is not occuring over Bluetooth?

Samsung could have a contract with Amazon where Samsung puts Bluetooth readers in all Amazon delivery vehicles to aid in this data retrieval.

It's not that far fetched since Google has mappings of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signal locations.

A TV manufacturer puts in the back door so the pair screen doesn't appear under certain circumstances.

I don't know and I don't have the time to research what the operating system on a TV can all do.

All it does is make another hole in the Swiss cheese model. I don't need a smart TV being the reason why an important account got compromised.

The smart features.

On the CU7000D I pulled three wires and I was able to turn off Bluetooth on the fucking thing.

For those about to make the recommendation, I could not make the edit in the factory menu. I use the remote controller code, but Samsung neutered their factory menu options unless the person has full-fledged factory remote.
