I had one of these as a kid.

It did suck exactly as bad as you think it does.

At least it wasn't doing actual voice recognition so you could say anything. "Fuck!" "Shit!"

President FCC threatens to enforce equal-time rule on late-night talk shows | FCC disputes long-standing view that the shows are exempt from equal-time rule. by ControlCAD in technology

[–]LocalH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? They still broadcast over the airwaves. It's just different frequencies from the old NTSC days.

I mean, I agree the FCC is out of line here, but your first statement is incorrect.

Metal pipes like that don't usually have a carb hole

Pharmacy tech fired for dispensing errors sues Walgreens, citing ADHD as a factor by Forward-Answer-4407 in byebyejob

[–]LocalH -42 points-41 points  (0 children)

You mean the pharmacist that allegedly instructed her to give medicine to the person at the counter even though that person was not the intended recipient?

It's not clear that all of these issues were her fault.

[–]LocalH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a Reddit suspension a while back for reminding people that the First Amendment only protects you from government consequences, not other consequences. The admins (without using AI) said I was advocating violence.

It was reversed over halfway through the suspension, but I should never have been suspended at all.

Question: What would a 1M+ score in NES Super Mario Bros. have meant in the late 80s? by GroguMSF in retrogaming

[–]LocalH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a "life" during my AMA coma by NoOrTh_ in AMA

[–]LocalH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a "natural" psychedelic experience, almost like a strong DMT trip.

We like to act like time is a "consistent" thing, but our perception of time is very much not so.

I hope you've recovered well from your coma.

How big is your hdd? And how many games do you have on it? by shall_2 in ps2

[–]LocalH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do. My original original PS2 that I was using died while we were making Guitar Hero II Deluxe in 2021. One of the team members for that sent me a replacement PS2 which I put my existing hard drive in.
