I am not a robot. I promise.
I hear ya there, but I also hear that they don’t have drain holes on the bottom inside the door and rainwater (and other fluids) will run down the windows inside the door and collect at the bottom and mess up the electronics and cause internal corrosion.
Remember, they’re piss poor designed, go after known weaknesses…
Whoops, meant to comment to another commenter this time, my bad.
Meh, there’s ways to disguise yourself, such as throwaway clothing and wash-off body paint.
Or so I’ve been told…
I totally agree. While I do have a Google account, I haven’t used it in many months, and my tablet and phones have never been signed in to begin with. I guess you might consider my mobile Android devices as ‘virgin’ devices, and I don’t mean Virgin Mobile.
I did break my hiatus from Google briefly tonight, just to ask Google Docs to write a document to compare and contrast AI slop versus reality…

Anyways, I’m done with Google again for as long as I can avoid it. But I’m still leaving the account active, if for no other reason than my YouTube videos (not like I’m even making any money off my random stuff)…
True, but even paying in cash or otherwise, both items are pretty darn cheap…
I’ve heard that if you spray them with a mix of vinegar and salt, that they’ll likely start rusting and even short circuiting not too long after.
Both of these products can be purchased with SNAP/EBT food stamp benefits for anyone interested.
Or so the rumor goes…
Fantastic
You’re not wrong there, the capacitor can indeed be dangerous!
I happen to be quite well experienced in repairing and rebuilding microwave ovens though, and it’s not like I leave the thing disassembled for random people to come along and stick their fingers in the wiring.
The modification I mentioned is fairly simple though, just take out the light bulb so that doesn’t stay on when the door is open, and bypass whatever timer circutry they have, whether it be analog, digital, or even subscription based digital bullshit these days.
Underneath the hood of every microwave oven is a sequence of 3 safety switches all activated by the mechanics of the door latch, required by law, to make damn sure it can’t emit radiation when the door is open. Take proper advantage of that knowledge and knowing the internals of a microwave oven, and it’s pretty easy to bypass the timer.
The only true danger with such modification is if you fuck up and forget your popcorn or frozen pizza or whatever, as the microwave will end up running indefinitely until you open the door. Used responsibly though, it’s just fine, but you gotta keep an eye on your own food and an eye on your own watch/clock.
Kids in the house though? Nah, I wouldn’t trust that sort of mod near kids for even 5 seconds.
We gotta go test these things in the back yard…
Honestly not as dangerous as you might think. Just keep the kids and pets away, and watch your own timer for your frozen pizza…
Remove the light, obviously. Bypass the control circuit…
Geez, didn’t Electroboom teach you anything?
Don’t do these things at home, obviously…
I don’t even need a timer for the microwave oven. I just rig that shit up where when you close the door, it cooks, and when you open it, well it stops cooking.
Don’t ask why, had to temporarily fix things for my mom. At least we didn’t have kids around the place…
Edit: AI can suck my nugz…
The activation key is…
WINDOWS-SUX
You can thank me later.
LOL, I’ve actually tried Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Puppy Linux, DSL, Tiny Core, and even the true outlier (not quite Linux or Unix though) Microsoft Xenix before. I’ve probably even tried a couple other distros before but only very briefly.
It takes effort to break them in any way that I can’t manage to figure out how to fix.
I settled on Linux Mint as my daily runner, but one of these days I might have to give TempleOS a spin in a virtual machine…
You act like the everyday user knows how to boot from alternate sources.
BIOS/UEFI/Secure Boot anyone?
Edit: I’ve been running Linux since 2011, but I’m not an average everyday user.
BREAKING: Man breaks Linux, installs another distro, and lives happily ever after.
Neat, I guess…
Also looks like you could easily take it out by throwing a meter of yarn on it…
While I tend to agree with most people here, simpler is better and fuck touchscreens in cars, but I do prefer to have a functioning AM/FM radio. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, hell it doesn’t even need USB/MP3/CD player or anything else, but living in a hurricane prone area, I like to be able to get emergency news reports even in the event the cell towers go out.
Katrina was no fun yo, especially when we found out the hard way that a chunk of the eastbound Interstate 10 bridge had collapsed. We sure could have used a working radio to find stuff like that out…
I should add, that scanning the transparent face/eye guard there will prove challenging, you might want to cover whatever is left of that with tape to help scanning…
Perhaps if you tape transparent parts, only from the inside, then perhaps you might be able to better capture the cracks themselves…
Just my thoughts on it…
Don’t worry, I’m sure it has a hidden camera and facial recognition…

Yes, I’m running Linux Mint on my laptop, which comes with LibreOffice. If I needed to write any serious documents of my own, I’d definitely do so using LibreOffice.
I dunno, I just wanted to test the waters of AI on itself in a way to see what it would spit out. At least what it wrote carries a reminder to not outright trust AI and do your own research and fact checking.
