Constructive or insightful comments, such as this, are the kind of content Lemmy should strive for.

"Marco, Arco.."

"Polo, Pilot."

Arco is gonna be the name of my bike, if I ever finish building it, and I was thinking about setting it up with a Pi and some voice assistant integration (don't ask me how. One thing at a time).

Pilot has some weird disassociative /existential fuckery involved in it.

Everything short of a cooperative is a compromise.

3.5B sounds like a lot, but Ford has around 175k US employees, if you divide that 3.5B over the ten years over the 175k employees, that's only an extra $2000/employee/yr. $2000/yr is not going to help a factory worker's future medical debt nor allow someone to afford a house or a family that couldn't $2k ago.

Show me someone who wouldn't take an additional 2K/year for the same work.

My mum

Well she'd know how my transition is going.

My employer

Doesn't seem professional for my employer to be looking at such things. Shame on them.

My kids

I don't have kids but if they were underage then that's a mail-ordered crate of ACME-brand Yikes bad ideas.

(I want to be clear that, even if I am a Dingus, I'm only one who is shitposting.)

Sounds like we just need a Share Your Nudes Week to help destigmatize a very ordinary part of modern life.

I do not get how people get blackmailed with their own nudes.

Like, who gives a shit? I see myself naked all the time. And now you have as well, blackmailer, so if anything I should be getting money from you.

I think that being able to wipe the tracker with a factory reset is a pretty big drawback for software-side, but —and I don't think this is possible— if you could load it into the micro-SD and make that run the tracker, I (for some reason) see that being more robust or redundant.

I forget the thing has a micro-SD most of the time.

Good to know about the power draw. I think Airtags use a button cell already, so in the end it's just stripping down the Airtag, finding space, and then 6 screws for routine service.

USB-A walked so USB-C could fly.

Yeah, obviously that sort of stuff wins by merit of practicality. I'm just wondering if there's anyone who wants to go crazy with the idea for the fun of it.
