    I knew this comment was coming. Agree on bird populations. My parents always had a farm cat and the last two lived for over 20 years each. The current one is 12.

    If you look at that road on google maps where the video is shot, there is basically zero traffic. For natural predators the only ones the kitty needs to worry about is bald eagles I think. I bet that cat will die of old age.

    Tim hortons literally abuses immigrants and the temporary foreign worker program which affects everyone’s wages in the entire country. I am Canadian and anti US but I would way rather give Starbucks my money than Singh Hortons.

    Tim Hortons, I believe, is a big reason why people are so racist towards Indians anymore in Canada. But what can you expect from them. Imagine being scammed into moving to this country and being paid less than minimum wage to serve people literal garbage. Meanwhile your visa is ticking down and you’re gonna get booted out of the country anyway. I would give poor service too.

    At least the people working at starbucks near me seem to actually enjoy their lives. Lol.

    People like me are required to keep this AI empire going. There doesn’t seem to be a huge pool of people who are both computer people and good at physical labour/using tools.

    I just meant that AI isn’t going to make me unemployed

    I do a lot of system administration too. It depends on the system and who owns it. I do a pretty wide variety of work which is why I love it

    We had facilities monkeys like you describe but after a reorg they gave those responsibilities to whichever sysadmins showed the most interest, which is how I got the job. I’d rather play with toys than stare at a screen all day so the jump was a no brainer to me

    My datacenter doesn’t host AI. Most of my servers process data coming from the square kilometer array in Australia. We’re looking for aliens

    Problem is, cost of living is so extremely high where I live and I don’t know what else I would do to make enough money to stay here. I’m really good at this job, and I don’t have very many other talents

    It could be a lot worse too. Our cooling system is a closed loop so we aren’t using fuck tons of water like newer datacenters. In the winter we can mostly get away with air cooling from outside air. And the power in my city is all from hydro dams
