News headline.. #TSA asking people not to wear #Christmas ugly sweaters to the airport. Apparently any sparkling decorations on clothing interferes with the body scanners. 😂

Sarah with an H. This video got over 3M views and still rising. From reading the comments, it's clear most people don't realize this is #AI generated. Also been noticing accounts repost/steal other people's videos and then auto generate a caption about it. #DeadInternetTheory is here folks.

This would be suitable for the #assholedesign sub Reddit. This site plays video ads that follow as you scroll. If you try to close the window, it keeps coming back. 🙄 #spam #ads #popups

Dynamic pricing gone wild on #BFCM. I've been tracking some items and a handful of them have changed prices about 3 - 4 times in the past 2 days. Usually downward increments of $5 - $20 dollars. But in one case, I saw the price jump back to normal price for a few hours, and then down again later. 🤦

Nice firmware update this week from #Sony for the #a7IV. Mostly UI related things but I really appreciate the rotating display info when taking vertical photos. #SonyAlpha #ILCE7M4

My #BlackFriday shopping interests have shifted as I got older. Less electronic gadgets and more practical mundane things like comfy sweatpants. ☺️

Spotted this at the grocery store. Why not just sell it it for $2.79 instead of making shoppers jump through hoops. 😂 #retail #groceries #supermarket #consumerism

The #AWS outage the other day should be a reminder of the old saying.. don't put all your egs in one basket. When the AI bubble bursts, those data centers can pivot their business into providing backup/redundant services to businesses whenever AWS goes down.

I know phone addiction comes down to self control, but I would like a dumb phone for the smaller size. However, the current selection is terrible. And most don't even have a hotspot feature. #smartphones #dumbphones #tech
Elias Wachtel knows that Gen Zers like him have an attention span that is shot and screen time that is “out of control.” So he switched to a dumbphone and embarked on the road to digital minimalism: https://theatln.tc/DskLQDWH

I'm older and do this too. I usually have the TV on low volume as background noise while I do other things. Having the captions on helps me know what's going on without having to turn the volume up. It's also funny catching censor automation block out non offensive words. 😂
