Face recognition

Face recognition technology is scanning us. This really noxious software is creeping... like into every corner. Basically, our privacy is no more. Expect laws to be passed to regulate us even more. What can we see? Yeah, every day there is a new rule or reg. Sadly, they find a new law to pass. Oh yes, it is supposed to protect us.

20%

20% of our books are on paper. These old school paperback books are often cheaper than e-books even. Yo, that really does surprise me. After all, an e-book costs a lot less to produce and it is way easier to move electrons down a wire... than physical books down an expressway. Well, the future is what it is.

wind power

Brothers and sisters, the future could be wind power. Still, we are not so sure. First off, those large generators are so expensive. Second, the wind is intermittent and that means... basically, we need to have other backup sources. OK, so we could have some peaker power plants that run on natural gas.

cows

Question for you. Hey, is dairy free better than milk from cows? Hey, that is certainly an interesting idea, but who can say? I do not like soy. Oh wow, it tastes like crap. Fact is, soy has substances similar to estrogen and that could cause cancer.

Star Trek

Star Trek is now racism. Yo folks, we cannot make this story up. It is just too crazy insane. Uhura is said to be a secretary and people who watch the series... frankly, they are bigots for some reason. Maybe, it is because they discriminate against weird aliens that are green. Gotta love those social justice key board warriors.

AI

AI will hit the wall soon. That does not surprise me. Face Book says it will employ AI to do content moderation and other common uses. Honestly, at this stage in our game... like we really do need to learn a lot more. Machine Intelligence is in its infancy now.

Decade of memes is upon us. Most are not funny, but some are. Also, let me add, some are quite cruel or mean. Let us try to be nicer.

Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday will have record sales it seems. After all, customers are flocking to the amazing internet to save some coins. Yeah, that is how it can seem. Frankly, I believe that we are in an economic crisis. Do hope that we can avoid entering into a massive recession.

Farmer

OK, so here is a new school farmer that makes more money... being on youtube than from growing crops. This is the new world that we are now in. Hard to explain just how it works, but basically, to me, it makes no sense. After all, he needs to get ready to appear... like in front of a camera. Let me add that editing all your videos is time-consuming.

scene

I have heard the saying - pretty as a picture, and here it is. This really is an awesome scene. Just look at those ponderous magnificent mountains that stand there right in front of us.

BBC says that the world is running out of sand grains. Well, we do not think so. Talk about click bait to get more views. Florida should worry. After all, they need a lot of sand for their beautiful beaches and other uses.

Mandalorian

I watched the Mandalorian on Disney plus and it could be called Disney minus. This show is poor. In fact, it is so poor... that I tuned off the movie. Well, it is more of a TV series. OK, so think of what star wars would look like if it had been written by your young video game playing son. Emphasis on the word - young. Frankly, the movie... looks like a video game. Except that it is a poor quality one. Yeah, one that you find in the bargain basement of a department store on sale for a dollar - wow.

AI

Elon Musk says AI or artificial intelligence is the biggest threat to the human race. Funny, it is not global warming. Hey, I do love the Tesla self driving electric cars. However, I do doubt that they will be sentient life forms any time soon.

1959

Motorized scooters were available in 1959 wow. Hey, um lime we are so sorry. I can certainly wonder why this amazing "new" technology never caught on. Ah yes, we did say never. Maybe, the answer is rain. Hey, we really do prefer to use cars.

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez shot her latest music video on an iphone - wow. I really do not like her voice. Actually, her music is so so. That said, the Apple I phone is a poor camera. Hey, it has a tiny little lens and a small sensor.

Texting

Texting and sending messages... like that is so popular now. In fact, we could goes as are as to say - it is max pop. I do wonder on a reason. After all, talking face to face is much better for me. A lot of time is lost just looking at a screen.

Being fat is not a matter of will power. Metabolic profiles are not all the same. Doctors should have more compassion. Well, that class is not taught in health care. Sadly, many people are victims of jokes about their size.

Sunday, September 22, 2019

Realtor

Realtor has an open house and faces a groping. Hey, my mom told me - don't go into strange cars. Uber passengers do need to wake up. Perhaps, we need to look at strange houses as being the same.

Saturday, September 21, 2019
