Sounds like an anxiety inducing app. And I thought sleep tracking was anxiety inducing. Imagine getting a notification that you might have ass cancer.

I would hope just motion activated. I really don’t want to have to yell at my toilet either.

I worked for Cisco during the time IoT was being pushed into everything. You don’t want to know how bad it is. If I was malicious I could have easily written several backdoors into their products without anyone knowing. I wrote kernel code in their IOS operating system. There are no checks on that shit and the entire switching team does next to zero peer review on kernel security.

Yes, there products that (at the time) touched upwards of 95% of all packets sent over the Internet.

Yeah but what if you could make it worse? What if you could add the garbage motion sensor that takes ten hand waves to get working? Or add a touch screen that showed you visually how hot or cold the water was and could also show you ads?

The problem isn’t necessarily smart toilets. The problem is companies attempting to have complete control over the product and ensuring that their products do not function without dependency on their infrastructure.

There is no functional reason to have a toilet connect to an outside server. There are no functional reasons to have many of these smart devices require outside dependencies. But their profits and their subscription models definitely benefit from being able to remotely disable features.

Technology is garbage not because we’ve gone too far with Technology. Technology is garbage because of capitalism.

I think the more the autism the more you’re frustrated that the other autistic people didn’t connect to your sarcasm. It’s the autism paradox. We found something we thought was relatable to normies and lost all relatability to other neurodivergent people in an attempt to be normal and still no one fucking got it.

But we’re on fucking Lemmy. We’re all on a level of neurodivergence I’m sure.

Thanks. I was trying to match some dry humor with the frustrations the relationship with wage labor frustrations and my usual balance of alcohol. I’m glad it hit for someone.

I actually appreciate all the downvotes and comments. I’ll take the “make people think”. Which is why I think my comment got so many replies. Enjoyable either way.

That was the joke. Maybe it was too Meta. Maybe it needed /s tag. But sometimes you just leave a tongue in cheek comment and miss. I’m ok if it was a miss. But I think if you took it seriously you probably outrank me.

I’m glad someone enjoyed my humor. I’m a mix between your most annoying coworker and your favorite coworker that approves your PR whenever you ping them. No unit test attached? Approved. Im sure you’re gonna do that when you have the time. Just make sure you address my minor comment that looks like I had some feedback ok?

You’re probably right. I should assume the autism level is above average here… My bad. But your mom’s cunt is pretty wet when she rubs it on my face. Not your best analogy.

Edit: no /s to be clear. Your mom’s cunt is dripping. But it’s good that you don’t know that.

Nope. 10 years experience at dicking around and collecting a paycheck. ChatGPT helps me dick around better.

Sometimes the more nonsensical it looks the less likely someone will bother taking their time to actually code review it.

My goal is keeping a job. Not getting work done. Then I just get more work to do.

Edit: I don’t know why I expected people on this sub to actually be able to tell what a joke was.

I swear to God search is purposely getting worse in order to force LLMs on us.

Not to mention image searches are just spammed with garbage AI art. Gotta add “before:2022” to all my images searches.

Yeah but then they add all these new requirements to be considered “experienced”. Every company really wants you to know Cucumber++ but only to spent all your time converting old legacy Cucumber code. It’s going to be an awful job to take.

And some of them don’t even know that CucumberScript is an entirely different language. No one would ever use CucumberScript in the Backend. It’s clearly a frontend only language. But nope. They keep trying to ask you if you have experience with Cucumber++ or CucumberScript for backend work. These recruiters have no idea what they are even asking you. You clearly should be using Eggplant. It’s the only thing that will work longterm as your backend requirements expand.

Knowing how to actually navigate vim is worth learning. Especially if you work in embedded systems where a lot of the time you’re on setup that is running barebones and likely just has vi as a text editor.

But I used VSCode for dev work with the VIM plugin.

The Hasanabi Doctrine is real.

nmaps a good choice to hit when your manager walks by. Always good to have it run in a loop on a terminal you can quickly tab over to from YouTube.

I’ve been working for Microsoft for the last two years now and have committed maybe 250 lines of code in total. Ask Me Anything.

I mean for history half of Wikipedia is garbage western liberal based narratives. Movies are at least wrong for entertainment.

Wikipedia is usually pretty good for math and science at least. So there is that. And then movies are just wrong to a comical degree. The good will hunting hallway proof still annoys me.

I don’t know why but “Bear Share” became a joke between me and my friends. It was like we made fun of one kid for using it instead of whatever we were using at the time. I don’t remember why but that’s all I remember about it. Makes me laugh now. Joking with one of our friends about what P2P client was the best.

Torrent scene is still alive and well. Actually has been revived pretty heavily since streaming services have gone to shit. MP3s are easy enough to just rip from youtube using yt-dlp. Supports more than just yt despite the name. That has all the info about it but you probably want to update to the nightly versions since they are more likely to be up to date.
