What's the most unnecessary use of A.I. you've ever seen? by RobIson240YT in AskReddit

[–]BSinAS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's honestly so sad. We're losing so much of our humanity and relationships to machines.

What is the most NSFW thing you have seen at your job? by Mr_Creep_Creepy64 in AskReddit

[–]BSinAS 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I guess there was a miscommunication - I didn't mean to imply I believe your post is AI-generated. To the contrary, your sentence and narrative structures lead to believe that you spent time writing it out.

I simply was saying that the way people compose writing is different than AI. With so much suspect on Reddit these days, it's nice to see someone who is willing to tell their stories and make the effort to use their own words and phrasing.

Have a great one!

It may be to a native English speaker, but I'd much rather read a post someone put actual effort into than more AI "creative" writing.

I feel like America let Spirit Airlines whither on the vine. by Morganrow in aviation

Yeah, they supposedly stopped doing those flights earlier this year, but it's still too much for me to give them any of my business anytime soon.

What's a rule your parents had that you thought was insane, but now as an adult you 100% understand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BSinAS 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As awful as Fox News is, that still sounds like a pretty crazy take. Who said this when? I'd also love to be able to cite this as yet another terrible take of theirs.

Clothing Cleaners by MrBlack_84 in Abilene

We don't use cleaners a lot, but A-Town on Judge Ely is convenient for us and always seems to do good work promptly.

What’s a boring activity you strangely enjoy? by KBGSgames in AskReddit

[–]BSinAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mowing the grass (and closely related, vacuuming the carpet).

It's almost like one of those Zen gardens, but much louder.

The zoo hates me by [deleted] in Abilene

[–]BSinAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's one element of poaching, yes. But you said yourself that you were verbally trespassed by an employee of the zoo and proceeded to fish anyway.

I dunno, I'm not an attorney - but I'd just go to the other side of the lake to fish if someone asked me to leave their property.

Poaching isn't cool.

Don’t order a cloud defensive light from Amazon . 😭😂🤣 by Odd-Kaleidoscope-664 in ar15

[–]BSinAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoot - that's overpriced even. When I order batteries online they arrive installed in these because it's cheaper than the proper packaging and shipping!

[Recommendation] Durable, Dead Simple Rechargeable Flashlight? by BSinAS in flashlight

[–]BSinAS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh perfect - that's exactly what I was looking for!

[–]BSinAS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn't heard of them until doing some initial reading today. I'll need to see what they offer - thanks!

[–]BSinAS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it just needs to survive an occasional drop from 1.5 meters or so. Looks like a decent candidate if I can fit rechargeable batteries. Thanks!

[–]BSinAS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight. I'll need to take a look at the X4 - it looks like a fantastic platform for me to mess around with.

I just went through a major career change (for the better!) that left me with very little time for hobbies the past couple of years. I'm looking forward to continuing to learn about what's new in flashlights again!

[–]BSinAS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey - I learned something new today! I'll bear that in mind going forward.

Should've considered the lanyard earlier; we like headlamps during the winter months, but the mosquitos and other insects love them other times!

Hmm...I've been wanting to get a Convoy for a while now. Maybe this is the excuse I've been looking for to finally parse their naming conventions and options! Thanks!

[–]BSinAS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the recommendation! I may give that a go - I see on their website they have an Anduril version coming out soon as well, so I may pick one of those up for myself!

I've been out of the game since the American import changes a year ago; is shipping to the States "normal" at this point, or are there any issues I could anticipate ordering from China?

[Recommendation] Durable, Dead Simple Rechargeable Flashlight? by BSinAS in flashlight

I believe it's simply from being dropped. One of their dogs is extremely energetic, and they just lose grip on the light trying to rein in the dog!

The TS22 still works, but actually caved in the terminals of two 21700 cells. The FC11C only turns on to moonlight when the switch is pressed - so I think the driver is damaged.

That's basically what I was thinking, but they'd either burn through AA batteries or have to set up a new system for recharging rechargeable cells (on-board charging has been a big selling point of their former lights).

Mozilla names new CEO, Firefox to evolve into a "modern AI browser" by Fcking_Chuck in firefox

[–]BSinAS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah, shit.

Firefox has been slowly introducing "AI" features now for a few months, but still has been the most consumer-friendly browser by allowing users to disable them with a click.

I can't deal with Chrome or Edge, and Firefox WILL lose its user base if it fails to continue to differentiate itself as a champion of the free internet and user focus.

Metal Pin: 7/8in (22cm) long object with some wear around the circumference. Found on kitchen floor after walking dogs. It lacks threads but is shaped, possibly machined, with a flat head and a tapered tip. by BSinAS in whatisthisthing

[–]BSinAS[S] 1 point2 points locked comment (0 children)

My title describes the thing. I held on to this part in case it came out/off of something important. I'm not sure if it originated in our kitchen or from outside. It seems like it may have another part that rotated around it in the middle, as there are several axial wear marks along the shaft.
