@anon_opin I know what I'm looking at under the bonnet, and can accurately describe what the majority of the parts really do.
on rare occasions I can even tell you what some of them did.
real-world though, unless I'm lucky enough to have the right bits/fluids/tools handy, it's just to let other road-users know that the automobile is no longer mobile and imminently will not be auto either
@rgarner once it can understand my life will it then report back and tell me what the heck is going on?
I can see a real use for that...
@anon_opin I'm around there age-wise and have committed approximately 0 hours of my life trying to be interested in sport.
luckily I don't feel I've wasted those 0 hours yet.
Oh look, another Mastodon instance is protecting the fascists from my horrifying incivility toward them. Big surprise that it's Hachyderm, eh, @davidgerard ?
Twenty five years ago today I started the #Safari and #WebKit projects at #Apple Computer.
Which means Safari is now old enough to rent itself a car. But let's not speculate about my age.
I'm still sad I can't use Safari on my Windows PC. Alas, I lost the battle to keep it there. But at least WebKit's DNA seeded or influenced most browsers we use today.
And I'm proud of that impact. Along with the wonderful team I built who made it all happen. Here's to another 25, friends.
Cheers. 🥂😊💖

@mooseallain.bsky.social I do not have any questions at this time (but wtaf??)
This AI doomerism is completely misplaced. I hate AI. In its current form it’s inherently unethical. But I’m not afraid that it becomes conscious and wants to kill us all. What I am afraid of is that my doctor’s office is replacing the receptionist with AI and I can’t get through to a human when I need it most.
@Anomnomnomaly BookSmauging ftw
@ryanc joke's on them, I try to configure RAMdisks on everything.
