Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Oh hey look, everyone. It’s Steve, getting irritated by another dumb ass antivaxxer. New restrictions violate privacy I have a question about targeted COVID-19 restrictions. What authority does a random person, with no credentials, hired for minimum wage, have to demand personal health information and identification from anyone just going about their daily lives? I …

I just downloaded six app updates for my phone. Do you know how many of them gave me a good idea of what I was getting? One, and even it was scant. I’ve been noticing a trend toward useless release notes in the last couple of years at least, and I really don’t care for …

For specific people under specific circumstances, these health analyzing smart toilets could be a huge help. But as a generally available consumer product? I’ll pass.

I’m not much for Twitter anymore, but I still keep a client on my phone and my desktop for the times I do feel like playing with it, in case someone talks to me there and to keep tabs on what a few people are up to. One of those clients is TWBlue, obviously. A …
Today’s handy criminal hint: When attempting to pull the old steal a car from a dealership and then trade it in at another dealership scam, it is helpful to keep in mind that thing I just said about *another* dealership. According to First Coast News and some other Florida outlets, police in Jacksonville responded to …
Businesses returning to normal capacity will not be inspected for social distancing Was there confusion over this? Why, if so? It sounds pretty clear to me unless the new dictionaries or the Ford government have different definitions of the words full and capacity than the ones I’ve been using all my life. The reason we …

It’s not every day that the NDP borrows a page from the Conservative playbook. Ontario’s New Democrats have apologized for a social media advertisement that mistook one Progressive Conservative legislator for another. The ad that ran in April said Premier Doug Ford and Tory legislator Kaleed Rasheed had paid sick days at a time when many …
