I don’t recall anyone quitting over it. The day manager was a sweetheart and cleaned it herself as much as she could. I didn’t particularly love the work, but I cleaned it a few times so she didn’t have to, some of the others did the same. No one was forced to clean it, someone either the manager did it or someone called tribute. In any case once all the visible and smell was gone, she’d go in an bleach the hell out of everything.

God I tried to rewatch eureka, I so dearly loved that show. I got the kids in front of the TV and I said this is a fantastic sci-fi series with all kinds of great high concept stuff you’re going to love it.

They did not, in fact, love it.

So internally I’m all screw you guys You don’t know what you’re missing I’m going to watch it.

I don’t remember the pilot being this long and slow, I’m just forgetting I’m sure I’ll pick up an episode two, I got a few minutes into episode 3 and just couldn’t.

The acting is shakier than I remember the effects don’t hold up. I have to stop before I ruined my memory of loving it. I miss the show so much Henry was a badass.

You don’t need the clones. You just need to be able to stay out of the animals reach. We are the only animals capable of running for days at a time. We’re not the fastest, burn motion is very energy conservative.

You could hurry most prey to chase you run away from it and just keep doing it until the prey died of exhaustion. Of course you’d have to be in top physical condition which mean or any of my clones would be but the training will be part of the requirement.

Oh yeah I worked in fast food back in the day, long time ago actually. We had a cereal s*** smearer. Randomly once a week usually, sometimes twice, sometimes not for a week, The women’s bathroom would get hit. Up the walls on the porcelain on the handles and the cracks and crevices and the grout and the floor on the mirror. The bathroom doors locked. Half the times when it happened a customer would come out and tell us, half the time it was one of the employees who would find it. This went on for what seemed like years but I suspect it was probably just a matter of a couple of months.

We were all good sports about it different employees who could handle the horror would help clean it. The managers did it as often as they could we just spread around the pain.

One fateful day, The dining room was busy but not too busy One of the employees went on break, the bathroom was locked. Well it was just about the right time frame post lunch, where everyone cleared out almost at the same time. The employee’s entire lunch break went by and The bathroom remained locked.

We called the manager over she sat in that side of the dining room trying to figure out whether she was going to knock on the door and ask if the person needed help or just unlock the door and go in and do a wellness check.

All of a sudden one of our very long time customers emerged from the bathroom. We affectionately referred to her as crazy cat lady. She stunk of ammonia so badly that you could clean the windows in the dining room without any Windex. She was always nice and polite but you just couldn’t sit within 10 ft of her.

When she walked out she saw two employees and a manager kind of staring that way got extremely flustered and started to say that bathroom was horrible. But we knew she had been in there for over 30 minutes. She was banned and we never saw her again.

For most people, setting and achieving goals is a serotonin boost.

I’m more of a bigger picture kind of person. My entire purpose in life is to make humanity move forward and hopefully a little better than it was. If I died tonight in my sleep it would be unfortunate in a lot of my better laid plans would never happen but all the stuff that I’ve done at this point all the people’s lives that I’ve impacted they would still hopefully be somewhat better for that.

In the time scale of a true existential crisis, as far as we can tell humanity is doomed anyway. So I’m here too collect my share of serotonin and raise some kids who will hopefully collect their serotonin. And all of us together are here to make sure that other people get to collect their serotonin. We’re little cogs in the giant machine of humanity.

Life is to live in the happy moments and ignore the dull and crappy stuff that’s in between. If you’re not getting those happy moments seek help they’re out there for you. You just need some help from a professional to better be able to experience them.

Yeah, then sadly, they missed the boat on web 3.0 which is decentralized, resilient, static, and doesn’t require blockchain.

Unless it was actually you that killed Hitler then set is up as a suicide. Then for the love of god, kill Hitler.

More of that asked if they could not if they should stuff

I run it secondary to Firefox when I need to use IPFS, have been for about 6 months now. I also occasionally use it because it also blocks Youtube ads by default, AND when combined with privacy badger, it is the only browser that still works while giving half decent anti-fingerprinting. Firefox, Chrome, nothing else even gets close. They just straight up lie about your screen rez and plugins to keep you from being fingerprinted.

Their account sync is pretty nice. Encrypted P2P syncing of configs and bookmarks. No need to make an account with them to store your settings.

Yeah, if you use their new tab page, there’s an crypto option there which you can remove. Their new tab page sucks and I don’t use it anyway.

There is ONE crypto button to the right of the URL bar, which you can right click and hide. The other stuff is actually the controls for their PWA install , share and privacy/ad block settings. You can just run full block everywhere and flick off the extra blocking for a site if it’s a problem.

I also refuse to use their search, but it does work really well last time I tried it. DDG is good enough and the smaller the company selling my data, the better.

Updates don’t generate any crypto popups for me, perhaps because I don’t use their front page.

It’s open source, so they at the very least aren’t hiding what they’re doing.

The fact that they offer shitty crypto with hideable buttons should be the least of your objections.

They replaced webpage ads with their own when you enable bat. (I don’t crypto so I don’t see those)

They swapped referrer links on unreferred things to make money. (which is sunset now, but is an indicator of how they DGAF)

They used their crypto as a pyramid scheme to sell to investors, even got in trouble over it with the Government.

Once their crypto pyramid scheme fails, They’ll either fold up, or double down on selling data passed through them.

They have an insecure TOR implementation

They are likely to sell your data

They are likely to sell your data to AI projects.

Their CEO is a POS, but that’s hardly unusual these days.

We’re not a democracy. the US government is 8 Million companies in a trenchcoat.
