me when i write a computer program and all it does it grab all information it can find and spit it out at you with no analysis:

(this is worse than a bad search engine.)

Accessibility tip:

If you want to automate your home a bit, but you don't want any "smart" tech, you can just buy remote controlled power sockets instead

They are a lot cheaper and easier to set up and use than some home automation smart tech nonsense

They don't need an app (but some models come with optional apps and there are apps that are compatible with most of these)

Many of them use the 433mhz frequency to communicate, which makes most models compatible with each other, even if they are from different manufacturers

The tech has been around for a long time and will be around for a long time to come

You don't have to put any fucking corporate listening devices like an amazon echo in your home

Models for outdoors exist as well

for anyone too young to know this: watching The Truman Show is a vastly different experience now, compared to how it was before youtube and social media influencers became normal

before it was like, "what a horrifying thing to do to a human being! to take away their autonomy and privacy, all for the sake of profits! to create fake scenarios for them to react to, just to retain viewership! to ruin their happiness just so some corporate entity could harvest money from their very humanity! how could anyone do something so evil?"

and now it's like, "ah, yeah. this is still deeply fucked up, but it's pretty much what every influencer has been doing to their kids for a decade now. probably bad that we've normalized this experience"

I like to believe Tech's always watching over Omega as she flies among the stars ❤️‍🩹

On the last Bad Batch eve, thank you from the bottom of my heart to the creators, the fandom, and the wonderful people i've met ❣️ TBB and these characters mean more to me than i could ever put into words, and they will stay a part of me forever

Can we please stop calling them dogs? these are not freaking dogs.

these are robots owned by corrupt institutions & designed to suppress and kill human beings without trial.

Allowing them any of the positive feelings people may associate with the word "dogs" is a big mistake.

Calling them that has to have been an intentional move by the owners & designers to make this evil-ass murderbot (now with flamethrower!) seem nonthreatening. Ffs. Let's not make their jobs easier for them.

Imagine if in the future they changed laptops so that they had to run on D batteries and you had to keep buying more of them to use your computer. Some clueless fucks in the next century would be like "Remember when laptops connected their power supply to the sockets in the wall?" "Oh yeah, I miss that..." and some throbbing turbodickweed would be like "You're just saying that because of nostalgia."

one of the very few to show the batch kindness back on kamino
