I wish I was kidding too.
I wish I was kidding too.
Its only been getting worse as this post conference pressser has gone on.
He has forgotten entirely to respond to parts of a multipart question, meandered into basically ‘I sat down with Golda Meir and Yitsak Rabin and we accomplished peace!’, just keeps repeating things he did (some of which are legitimate accomplishments) that have little to do with the questions asked…
… “You said your presidency would be a bridge to younger candidates, what happened to that?”
Rambles about being in the Senate a really long time
… at one point he actually said, outloud, ‘How do I not make this seem self centered?’ before answering a ‘Considering the stakes, do you really think you should run?’ type of question.
In the time I have been typing this he has basically barked in anger after a short response to a question that was followed by the reporter asking ‘thats all?’.
He also keeps doing the sort of asshole loud whisper sarcasm voice.
He is coming off as a sundowning angry old man who doesn’t want his car keys taken away.
If I were a Trump supporter, I’d be making a meme of Trump as Bob Page from the DX intro bemoaning ‘old men’ playing at running the world.
See, it wouldn’t click with the MAGA crowd that Page is the bad guy, so they would think it was funny.
Well I guess all I can say is what a shame.
He was just asked about his confidence in Kamala to be able to beat Trump, should he be succeeded(sp?)… and he referred to Trump as his VP and then meandered into some vague talking points.
Physical Therapy.
Whole lot of my tendons and muscles got torn, shifted into the wrong places and misused as I had to keep moving with the muscles that were not completely fucked, bones broken, etc.
I still can’t really walk for long periods of time without massive pain, but it is slowly getting better.
Thanks for the well wishes =)
Well, the final straw was when a number of them made me homeless, and the rest were either too busy or too emotionally burdened to help right now.
So after losing all my possessions, losing my job, being homeless for nearly a year, getting the shit kicked out of me regularly by fentanyl addicts uh… well, I should not have survived.
But despite nearly being killed more times than I can count, being held hostage by madman (who the police held for 30 days and then let loose), and witnessing a number of people I’d met along the way die…
It was not exactly easy.
But, by basically dumb luck, I survived.
And, being alive, having not only hit rock bottom, but having been dragged and kicked along its jagged ground… well, now I am free.
It is only after you lose everything, that you are free to do anything.
And for me, that means not having to deal with anyone while I do a whole lot of PT on disability.
Also, I now have a great deal of self confidence, as I am 100% certain any of those dumbfucks would have died going through a tenth of what I went through, yet I persist.
Presumably, the individual themself is transitioning sexes while they are also transitioning tables of one format to another, maybe from T SQL to PostGres, who knows, could be tables in any kind of language.
Solitude.
I appear to have had extraordinarily bad luck in my life, as nearly every significant friend or lover or family I’ve ever had is consistently some.combination of abusive, exploitative, duplicitous, violent, criminal, hypocrite, never willing to hear my side of any story.
Been by myself with a new phone number in a new state for some months now and I’ve never been less stressed out, never felt less burdened, never felt more free.
Took me 35 years to figure out… wait, what if I did what I wanted to do, enjoyed things because I enjoyed them instead of pretending to like some other thing because someone else does, what if I stopped bending over backwards to solve everyone else’s problems when they usually just go out of their way to cause more problems for me, and never give anything meaningful back, and in fact usually blame me for things I have no control over, and then spread unfounded rumors about me due to their own massive neuroticism and guilt complexes?
I am quite happy now. I’ve never needed much to be happy, and nearly no one who has ever claimed to care about me has ever once been able to handle my honest opinions about what they have put me through.
Its been astounding to realize that actually, I make friends quite easily and get along with most people I meet great, whilst everyone I used to know has spent decades convincing me I am an unlikeable asshole who is merely to be tolerated.
While one part of me fucking absolutely hates the Mac Goggles for many reasons…
…the other part of me kinda really wants them to become normalized precisely so that Ghost in the Shell offensive hacking type bullshit can just ruin the lives of anyone who regularly uses one.
It doesn’t have to be as immediately malicious as cutting the feed while driving…
…You could do that watermelon green text from 4chan. Just have a watermelon, every day, thats always… not quite in the same position, but always there.
When I was in 3rd or 4th grade, the gym teacher would play Mambo # 5 all the time… a song about boinking a different woman every day of the week.
Oh god, unrelated but more cringe school song memories: Assembly before high school prom introduced the football team for some reason.
To… let the bodies hit the floor, followed by I Stand Alone, which does not make any fucking sense as football is a team sport.
Ugh.
The worst part is that those who do not understand this will tell you you are insane, catastrophizing, should just focus on your own life, and will get angry at you for really caring… while the ones who do understand, generally just get depressed.
Meanwhile, our political system implodes as we have passed the climate threshold. Rivers in Alaska are running orange as a result of permafrost thawing. That means we are releasing methane now, means its only going to get worse faster.
Thank god I have never wanted and do not have children.
I have no experience with the software involved in that, but I do know that generally, anything connected to a POS system probably should not be connected to a publicly accessible… anything.
Does this software even have APIs to do something like that?
Or could you just point a webcam at a screen or portion of a screen that the default software indicates open tab count on lol?
Well dang, I did not know that.
Thank you for correcting me!
I think you’re correct, but wouldn’t this only work if you are running either android, or google maps, and have location on?
Its accurate enough but still an estimate, is the point i am getting at.
Conceivably a webcam + opencv headcount would be more precise, if the cameras covered the whole space and could account for viewing the same person from a different angle.
Its like how google can give you an estimate of bus times, but if there is a local city app that specifically interfaces directly with the actually city busses, it’ll be more accurate.
Grounds for Divorce by Elbow.
They could very easily just implement some rudimentary person identification algos and output only a headcount.
Pretty sure you can do that with OpenCV.
Damnit, back in the cage with you!
It has TWO locks this time, asshole!
