  • I think the airport near me is getting them soon, if not already (it’s been a little while since I last flew). This seems like a handful of companies saw an opportunity to sell the concept of security to people that are naive, and they went along with it. Typical government tech contract type stuff that in this case they use as an additional data aggregation vector. It explains why there was no push or response when OP opted out. When someone knows that an action or inquiry can be perceived as questionable or invasive, they want to end the exchange quickly like it never happened.







  • Shit in, shit out. That’s AI. You can’t guarantee a single thing it says is true, and you have to play whack-a-mole forever to get it to behave. Imagine knowing this and still investing time and money in it. We could be investing that in education and making the human experience better, but instead we’re stuck watching capitalists harness it to replace people, and shove half-baked ideas out the door as finished products.

    Look, I love tech. I’ve worked in tech for 20 years. I’ve built apps that use AI. It’s the one tech that I despise watching capitalists have control of. It’s just chatbots all the way down that don’t know what they’re regurgitating, and eventually they’re going to be vacuuming up nothing but other AI content. That is going to be the future. Just bots talking to other bots. Everything completely devoid of humanity.









  • Project Zomboid. That’s the most recent game I can think of where I reduced the difficulty (and that’s coming from someone that has nearly 400 hours into Elden Ring). It’s not that the game is tougher than ER or anything like that. It has a ton of cool mechanics and detail that are really enjoyable if you’re into zombie survival games, but the zombies can really swarm you in that game and you won’t live long.

    It also has sandbox mode where there’s no zombies and you can focus on farming, building, etc.
