I don't know why inanimate objects treated like this makes me feel sad. It reminds me of the Mars rover comic where he's left asking if he did a good job after the radio goes silent.

Quit making me feel bad for machines damn you!

[-] irreticent@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Thanks for sharing, though it did make me sad.

Empathy and anthropomorphization. It's a good quality to have as a person, but it does cause these false positive triggers.

This is my go-to antidote for that one

Especially the alt-text.

Never checked in alt-text. You made my day (:

Here's this again. I get to bring it out every time this sort of thing comes up. It never ceases to be a masterpiece.

Empathy ia possibly the beat quality a person can have.

Adult. Have to go back to Herbie the Love Bug for my childhood versions. Or plenty of children books that animated things, my first being a vivid one about a lighthouse tugboat lost in a storm. With a companion 45 rpm record that read and sung the book.

I feel really bad about my old MacBook. It was my trusty companion for 10 years, but now it's kind of forgotten and useless.

I tried to revive it a while ago, but it's too slow/hot to be useful for anything worthwhile and it's a real shame. It's still working fine, otherwise!

Old macbooks make great Linux machines!

Not that old, unfortunately.

Linux runs fine, but even when underclocked, it turns into a space heater by just using a browser.
