Time for Mecha-Stallman to declare war.

“Fuck the code review!”

Start your plans to escape now even though it’s a few years away.

Find sympathetic family members or close friends who’d be willing to take you in. Preferably someone who your dad doesn’t know, or at the least doesn’t know where they live.

Act as you usually would around him, don’t have him suspect anything.

When the time comes, spring your plan into motion. Notify your contacts that you’ll need to be picked up. Pack essentials into a bag. Include vital documentation (birth certificate, social security card, ID) since those can be difficult to replace. Bring your pets if you have them. Leave in the middle of the night when he’s sleeping. Don’t leave a note. Turn off read receipts on your messaging application. Minimize as much leverage as he has over you.

You’re escaping abuse, so your own personal safety here is paramount, don’t feel like you’re obligated to him in any way. He will try to manipulate you if he knows where you went, so it’s best to just ghost entirely.

Jokes on him. I’m a carrier of the Woke Mind Virus and there’s nothing he can do about it.

If it doesn’t come with a discount like a rewards program with free coffee every now and then, I’m not interested.

Won’t it be difficult to prove that this is due to terrorism since Cybertrucks have a habit of exploding all on their own?

What does Nauru have against Palestine?

When 01/01/1900 no longer becomes an option I’ll need to resort to my standby of 01/01/1970.

Ubisoft says they make AAAA games now, so probably at least $70 for the base game standard edition.

How are they not getting the book thrown at them by Microsoft?

Here I present a little something I call a Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V

Does Google no longer want to pay for the Greenland .gl TLD?

I’ve had that happen before lol

I was like wait this sounds familiar

Instead of generative AI for game assets, id much rather see something like a LLM in game that dynamically controls NPC behavior. That would be cool as hell.

Like an RPG where you can type what you want to say to an NPC instead of choosing a fixed dialogue tree.

I had to specifically mute all of my notifications because I couldn’t find out what app was causing them and it was driving me nuts. Steps below for a Pixel phone if anyone is interested in how to mute notifications without having to go into vibrate mode.

For a Pixel 7 phone:

Settings -> Sound & Vibration -> Default notification sound -> My Sounds -> None

As you might imagine, all this snapshot recording comes at a hardware penalty. To use Recall, users will need to purchase one of the new “Copilot Plus PCs” powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite chips, which include the necessary neural processing unit (NPU). There are also minimum storage requirements for running Recall, with a minimum of 256GB of hard drive space and 50GB of available space. The default allocation for Recall on a 256GB device is 25GB, which can store approximately three months of snapshots. Users can adjust the allocation in their PC settings, with old snapshots being deleted once the allocated storage is full.

Oh no my computer doesn’t meet the hardware requirements whatever shall I do

I would have hoped that before putting this implant in the guy’s brain that they had a plan for what to do in this situation. Like coming up with a method to potentially reseat the retreated “threads” it without invasive surgery. Especially if this it’s a recurring issue.

I think you’ve been pranked.
