Oh dear, RPS was bought out recently and it shows. More ads than content.
I feel like some people in this thread are overlooking the tongue in cheek nature of this humour post and taking it weirdly personally
I actually stopped my subscription to Wired recently because the damn site never recognises me and login does not seem to support autofill or biometrics. Really pissed me off.
Anyway, the gist of this article is the companies are spending money on building AI and sacking people to save that money
Did Jesus also commit adultery with a porn star, use campaign funds to hush it up and then lie about it?
Or does the analogy not carry that far?
What an amazing read.
My god, this is a masterful piece of writing.
“Make the situation more of a commitment”
Amazing.
Much of the North and Wales are still not very diverse Part of what you were experiencing is the fact that you really do stand out.
Bristol is not so very far away from you, and it’s a very cosmopolitan city… No one there will give a fuck I do assure you.
Not now perhaps, but then it was. To me. I’d not pay them a farthing now.
100% I did pay for the premium version of Apollo and I absolutely would have paid about £20 a month for access.
It was the #1 most used app on all my devices.
I know, I snorted at that. Oh, shit we’re losing money because we pursued endless growth instead of the UX for customers….quick, uhhh….AI!
This is actually a thing. Worked in Apple Stores for years and saw laptops and phones full of rice. Whole grains and bits n bobs.
So before the rice you could actually do a modular repair sometimes. Swap out the battery or SSD.
Whole thing full of rice bits attached to every component? Forget it.
Also, once a device is liquid damaged, often rice will resurrect it but only until the logic board rusts through / goes dry. Copper oxidises over time.
On the other hand, if you can’t afford a repair or swap out, (contrary to popular opinion, Apple sell replacement devices through their service channel way cheaper than new units) rice might give your device a new lease of life. So sometimes worth the gamble.
Edit: missed the D off SSD which kind of changed the context!
Holy shit, thanks for that
Lots of folk in this thread taking this way too seriously
It took about a year to make a difference for me.
I guess they call it mindfulness practice for a reason

He has obviously found a single interest that really engages him… That is a very ‘seductive’ thing for autistic people.
One suggestion is that if he is dropping jokes that are not landing, ask him what he wants to achieve when he’s making these jokes… It might well be that he simply hasn’t grasped the fact that not everyone speaks the same language that he has discovered.
The world is such a puzzling place to autistic people at the best of times, and it really is possible that he just assumes that everybody else understands these memes in the same way that everybody else seems to understand so many things that are a mystery to him.
I loved this game. There was a pretty good iOS port a few years back but sadly it’s no longer supported.
