Moar Winning!

Yes, that’s another possibility, but not the only one. Greed manifests differently for everyone.

It’s never enough. You get to a point you don’t ever want to live below your means ever again. To stay at that level you want double, triple what you have now so you can stave the losses of the next crash. The greed grows.

You get to a point where you worry something or someone outside of just recessions will take it away because you’ve seen it happen to others and you’ve worked too hard to get it. The greed grows.

The sad part is this isn’t something new nor isolated and every single human being is capable of it because greed literally is a survival instinct in all of us.

The only only only resolution is to go back heavy taxation. For the US, that means to pre 1960s and post US Civil War 1860s taxation when top earners paid up to 90% tax on ALL 100% of their earnings no matter how it was made.

2025−1519: 506 years to say oopsie?

Fuck the Catholic Church for never formally apologizing even after it was requested in 2020 (Two Popes have said it was a tragedy, but never took any official blame) and fuck Spain for ignoring several decades of Mexican Political requests to reconcile their shitty neocolonialist views.

Nothing screams ‘I need attention’ more than consistently trying to troll everything you post on.

So what’s wrong beella?

Smart Energy Discount issues from the personal view of a consumer.

These plans work by sending you notifications that they will be reducing your thermostat for you when there is an energy crunch.

Sounds good so far, here’s the issues I had:

• Let’s say you are a good consumer and let them change your thermostat to 85’F when it’s 100’F every single time… You saved… $5!!! and got to sweat profusely in your own home in the process.

• Let’s say you were working in the yard and come in sweaty and needing to cool off or you have a hot flash for some reason. If you change that thermostat while they are in control of it, you lose your whole $5 for not just that day, but the entire billing cycle.

• Let’s say you want to exit the plan. Now you’re on the hook to wait on hold with your energy company for hours waiting for the one department and probably one person who can unenroll you. Chances are likely even then that they can screw it up and like in my case, both Google and my southern California electrical company claim ignorance anything was done wrong yet keep me enrolled.

In short and in summary: It’s a trap because the savings is far, far too small for the sacrifice.

Jokes on them, I block my Nest from talking to the Internet so my electrical company cannot control the damned thing. They had control even after I opted out and Google insisted they unenrolled me in the energy savings plan. Don’t enroll in these plans [insert it’s a trap gif].

Microsoft is rather inept as a company and always has been, so this action sincerely doesn’t surprise me.

Quit buying MicroIndiaSoft products.

Yes, other species of Jays would also be capable of doing this.

Thinking about it more, the EU has another more probable species: Woodpeckers.

When I lived in Spain, there were half a dozen woodpeckers who would eat acorns. I have zero doubt that a woodpecker would do this.

Blue Jays and Sparrows will also do this and usually only at dusk or dawn.

The idea here is to rebrand and modernize AOL as a gmail and cyber security alternative with decoupled infrastructure from US dependencies: A highly political topic in the EU currently.

I say this fits in WTF more than memes

Yes, under certain circumstances laserjet cartridges can explode like this.

• High heat (something wrong with the printer)
• Third party (Crappy made ones heat up and eject toner out of weak spots)

By looking at this image though, it was most likely caused by:

• Waste tank was full and someone reset the toner settings, causing air to be pumped into the waste tank until it popped like this.

TL;DR: Quit being a cheapass company and replace your toner cartridges when it says to.

BTW, this is a circa 2000s Canon imageRUNNER 3200 series. Bets are that this image is also 20 years old.

Sincerely, someone who has worked on laserjets since Compaq Printers were a thing.

I just watched it on a high res monitor, definitely looks like rocketman had liftoff.

Sudo and elevated privilege failures queue playing the Achy Breaky Heart.

Moar Winning everyday!
