Recently my speakers have been switching left/right. I was physically swapping them for a while, now I try and ignore it. I’m sure there’s some eldritch linux magic I too new to know like alsamixer that will fix it.

I went to Wendy’s the other day, and they have this automatic pre-recorded English-fluent woman cheerfully ask for your order. While an actual person didn’t indicate that they were ready, I know they won’t do a second intro message either way, so I started to order. A heavy spanish accent comes over the speaker “Fucking wait, god.” My only thought was “Fair enough” and I waited.

Whoever implements these systems is crazy. We don’t pay people enough to be policed that heavily.

As a customer, I would feel much more comfortable talking to someone who doesn’t sound like they have a gun to their head.

Reminds me of Nuclear Gandhi.

I always heard stuff like this about my generation, thought it was only a matter of time until we got our day and overwhelmingly pushed reforms. Never really worked out. Hopefully this time it will stick.
