  • Yeah our neighbors got one it missed our property line by less than 20 feet. They got a bottle of champagne or wine. But it was provably 30 years ago.

    The funny thing was in the mid 80s, chase vehicles would come down or street all the time and get stuck because it’s a huge circle with no outlet and 4 long cul du sacs along the way, but the maps showed a second outlet road that was never built and blocked off as a fire road.

    They’d blast back up the road once they finally figured it out and have to catch up. This was all way before GPS and cell phones, so if they lost sight of the balloon they’d have to go back to sone office and wait for the pilot to call in.
















  • I’m an Gen-Xennial or whatever and I hate AI because it’s ruining my ability to solve problems m with search results on the internet. I get imaginary results in the AI panels when I’m incognito and don’t have it disabled, and DDG has been completely fucked by Slop Spam websites in their results.

    Then there are low price eshop clones that copy legit products at half price. The sites usually have a name so close that when checking trustpilot type places, they’ll “autocorrect” your search to the legit site that was cloned.

    It’s finishing off the already largely ruined internet.
