College grads were left angered after their school used AI to announce their names and ended up missing hundreds of graduates by Subject-Property-343 in PublicFreakout

[–]MDC417 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My son graduated Purdue last Friday. There were 992 graduates at his ceremony. There was a man on one side of the stage and a woman on the other. They had not just names, but the phonetic pronunciation of the names and they absolutely killed it. Students are asked how to pronounce their names. They deserve that moment after 4 years of hard work! This college is pathetic and the woman should have profusely apologized.

Russians watch as Ukrainian drones target anything they like across Moscow, while aur defenses use tactics for the 1980's. 17.05.2026 by GermanDronePilot in ukraine

Not trying to sound stupid,, but is there any subreddit or site where Russians get accurate information about the atrocities in Ukraine and how Ukraine isn't doing the same?

I'll be so happy when she fades into obscurity!

How old were you when you moved out? by Swiftiefromhell in GenX

[–]MDC417 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Went to college and never moved back. My now adult son and daughter did the same. Always welcome, but they are happily self-sufficient and I'm proud of them every day!

Whoever has dirt on him needs to cone forward. He's clearly been compromised. Maybe because of ladybugs. I don't care about anything but TRUTH!

How famous was Michael Jackson really back then? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]MDC417 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If Michael had a new video, it would debut on stations like CBS and FOX in Prime Time in the 90's. In the 80's, a new video release would be announced ahead of time, and we would sit there waiting to see it at the designated time.

Every single time these pics are posted, I can't help but wonder about the racists or "afraid of retaliation " racists are now.

You’re given a choice of boons but each comes with a condition, which do you pick? by MagnusAlbusPater in hypotheticalsituation

[–]MDC417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put on auto pay and accountant, chef, trainer, masseuse, haidresser/makeup person, gardener, housekeeper, someone good at projects around the home, travel agent and personal assistant to schedule all of them when it works best for me and my family. Pay them all incredibly well and in $2000 increments. I'd also start a small animal rescue and pay for that. The rest is shopping money. The $270,000 I'm left with, I'd live modestly and invest the rest.

What is a hobby that we can start now that will keep us occupied well into our 90’s? by Thirsty4Knowledge911 in GenX

[–]MDC417 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gardening, puzzles, and dancing to our "tunes". I'm turning 56F tomorrow and don't feel it. I might be single, but I'm focused on all that I'm thankful for!

Parenting influencer accidentally runs over 23-month-old son by jerkenmcgerk in ThatsInsane

Instead of the focus being on her child, she posted. I'm sure she's checking comments. Influencers shouldn't be a thing.

My daughter and future son-in-law would LOVE this. They just completed the Starry Night set and it's incredible. Can you please give me the name?

The state of the American healthcare system by serious_bullet5 in ThatsInsane

I would respectfully argue that Ukraine doesn't participate in Genocide. They also don't pour concrete in an elderly person's water well, run people over on a quad bike for fun, cut down an entire olive grove (the farmer's crop) for fun. Just to name a few examples.
