This is why it’s imperative to fight his fucking ass. You can win. Don’t comply in advance.

Remotes exist

To turn off and on light bulbs

He’s like a walking uncanny valley.

He’s the uncle in the zombie flick that swore he wasn’t bitten and is starting to turn.

If she were morally consistent she’d quit her “ministry” and go home.

This was the first thought I had when I read the headline.

One of the best parts of driving IMO is when you’re relying on the car to straighten itself out after a turn and release the wheel slightly to feel it rotate in your hand. I guess i shouldn’t be surprised that his cars are so poorly designed that they even removed that sensation.

Japanese Breakfast, the latest single Picture Window has been living in my head rent free since I first heard it

AKA all of your personal data, you know, just in case we need it

No worries guys! It’s not a Holocaust. It’s a whoopsie daisy!

I heard – from right-wing propagandists so you know it’s true – that he had to be deported because he was abusing his wife. I guess DHS didn’t want him taking their job.

They didn’t “design a directory tree” either. They were designing screens for a thing that sits on top of a directory tree, and they didn’t understand the underlying concept.

It was likely because they’re used to the abstraction that iPhones and iPads provide, where the underlying directory structures are largely hidden from users.

They were designing functionality that contained directory trees and didn’t understand directory trees. How is it my responsibility that this person is not qualified to do their own job?

If I knew I was teaching remedial computers that day, I would’ve come with a lesson plan.

I’m going to stick with my initial conclusion that you love to blame the “teacher” even when they aren’t in any way a teacher.

Yeah, but you were still in a teaching position.

No, I was in a meeting with a supposedly technical person.

I’ve been in the industry for a while, and I’ve even mentored people. These gaps in basic computer knowledge are new and they’re also not my problem. I was not this person’s mentor nor supposed to be teaching them anything.

I’m not a teacher. I thought I was in a design meeting not teaching remedial computers to someone who is supposed to be producing designs.

Just going off of my life experience, I notice that people pretend up a set of credentials, have large gaps in knowledge, and won’t admit they don’t know things.

I’m 40+ and I wanna go get drunk in a parking lot with you guys.

I tried to explain a directory tree to one of them (a supposedly technical resource) for twenty minutes and failed. They’re idiots. They were ruined by baby tech like iPhones, iPads, and now AI.

The algorithm pushes them that direction.

On YouTube I’m constantly one video away from “owning the woke libs” content because I turned my view history off.

Good luck selling the salmon at this point if you do that

Do you find food valuable? Clothing? Shelter?

Some things are valuable because we’re frail creatures who need stuff in order to survive. I don’t believe in gatekeeping those vital things behind a monopolistic mega-corporation but my country sure as hell does. The monopolistic mega-corporations that provide human necessities become inherently valuable by proxy.
