  • Sorry… busy day and I’m going to need a real computer for this 😅

    RE Free… nothing really, just being bitter. I’m not a huge fan of a lot of the little tie-ins like Pocket, but I respect the hustle… if not the business plan.

    The Amazon review thing they bought is Fakespot™, check it out if you shop on Amazon. Here the Ai nonsense is just some summaries of the reviews it digested… not inherently bad, but the whole experience is painfully slow. Still. Well worth checking out if you haven’t.

    Shady dude gets a 📌 for now. Sorry. Time.

    If you check out Fakespot you can’t miss it. Have yet to try the browser integration, although I have enabled it for some reason…  


  • You gotta love that there are benchmark for that… The company that can’t even get free, right.

    I really like their Amazon reviews thing that they bought… I bet the shady dude that had all the fucking people finder sites was in charge of that cause it’s got the same kind of fucking cheesy-graphic-load-screen… basically, the only functional piece of software they had at that point cause they hadn’t touched it, and then they went an AIed it up…

    Here’s a new idea, why doesn’t everybody in the fediverse post their favorite privacy enhanced Firefox rebrand:

    Can you get Vyvanse? That’s been my favorite for years, the time release mechanism makes for a nice smooth ramp-up which is nice.

    That said I don’t take it unless I’ve got a plan for the day. It’s equally easy to get sucked into something trivial or minor. If my brain is really fighting me I try to set time limits, and work in rounds.

    Have not found one specific drug that fixes everything so I can just flow through my days… but I’ve learned some better ways to cope.






  • So 214 people let the battery on their (USB Rechargeable) insulin pump die and reported it to the FDA…

    Then again Tandem is kind of a shitty company. They based their algorithm in part on data from insulin pumps that had been returned to the manufacture for a software update. Without consent.

    Switched from an industry standard luer-lock connector to a proprietary one after purchase. Then required all supply ordering to go through their own sales department and a single manufacturer.

    Camped on the design for a small portable pump they patented back in 2012 until there was a viable competitor with innovative technology.

    You know what… I think I have a phone call to make :-)
