I used to use Google chat heavily, had about 20 chats going at any given moment. I didn’t notice it, but I stopped using it years ago I guess for WhatsApp, signal, etc.

Maybe it wa a natural progression, but I wonder what Google did to cripple a nice app so badly

Mt. Fuji viewed on the horizon with a large vertical stack of clouds covering the top looking ominously like a plume of volcanic smoke.

This tbh. In most civilized countries one wouldn’t even need a car to get to work. In America, losing transportation leads to one step from homelessness for a large margin of people

When I was a teen, I learned assembly because I wanted to get into the demo scene.

Squating in front of the rx-78-2 gundam on one knee with one hand raised in the air, mimicking the Gundam’s pose. On both sides James is flanked by his son and daughter, the later mimicking the same pose while the son smiles on with a deck of Pokemon cards in his hand.

C-3PO frantically screaming in Japanese on Star Tours in Disneyland Tokyo has to be the funniest thing I ever heard.

I like how in “eat, pray, love” Julia Roberts character sits at that coffee shop in Rome sipping coffee and writing on her diary about how polite and lovely Italians are.

At the same coffee shop I got screamed at by the owner. 😬

The default AI overview google search feature SUCKS. So often it gives incorrect details. Just the other day it told me that the switch 2 hasn’t been released yet.

“Ah… Juan Juanterez, they call him The Falcon. He spent 5 years in a gutamalian prison after helping me with the Atlantic City Hustle ten years ago. Currently operating out of Cuba and can locate the next person on the blacklist. But he won’t be happy to see me.”

Then that makes her my kind of people. Down with the old guard of the DNC, they’re even more responsible for giving us Trump than the GOP is!

I’m still very confused about what she expected the outcome was going to be? One of those weird people who still think Elon is a great genius and X truly would become “the everything app?”
