Not good enough for me knowing there are Thomas Midgley Juniors out there:
On October 30, 1924, Midgley participated in a press conference to demonstrate the apparent safety of TEL, in which he poured TEL over his hands, placed a bottle of the chemical under his nose, and inhaled its vapor for sixty seconds, declaring that he could do this every day without succumbing to any problems. […] Midgley later took a leave of absence from work after being diagnosed with lead poisoning.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Midgley_Jr.
He was the jackass who invented both leaded gasoline and CFCs and inflicted them on the world.
Last time I talked to them, they used Zoom.
My medical provider started doing that when I last had a video conference with them, and I declined to allow the use of AI. They took no issue with that – didn’t even bring it up. It’s very unlikely that your provider will care that you declined either. I recommend saving your energy for other problems and dealing with this later in the unlikely event that they do actually make an issue of it.
Ah, the real Bugs Bunny.
Seems to just be a meme like the void cat frenzy a while back – that is, people posting their pet photos with a title saying it isn’t AI – and more and more people just keep piling on. :p
This post might have started it?
If there’s any more to it than that, then I’m out of the loop too.
Looks like roughly a dozen or two (from a quick check) as far as actual bookmarks go. I use most of them, though there’s a few I should probably prune at this point. I have a lot of tabs in tab groups instead though (500-ish?). That works better for me with frequent screen sharing for work calls (keeping URL bar suggestions restricted to bookmarks only), and matches my way of thinking about projects I’m working on better as well.
I also save pages with SingleFile that I want to preserve for future reference instead of bookmarking – no point hoping they’ll continue to be online and accessible when I can just keep my own copy locally… Looks like I’ve archived roughly 200 or so pages in the last year like that.
