GUEST POST from Don – Burger KING +

Burger KING + Burger KING has taken the lead.  It has done the hard work of finding what displeases customers and found that customers prefer humans over AI. Customers don’t like kiosks.  Customers don’t like apps.  Customers don’t like slow service.  Customers don’t like AI asking dumb questions, like “are you using our app?”  (“Honestly, why should I use your …

Saturday Social – Jan 10, 2026 Edition

Well I’ve made a couple of changes to my social lineup so I thought I’d share them with you; it’s been a while since I made a Saturday Social post anyway. The biggest change I’ve made is that I’ve left Gab.com. If you’ve been reading here a while you know that I absolutely have loved …

Saturday Social – Dec 6, 2025 Edition

I don’t do many Saturday Social posts, as not much changes, so there’s nothing new about which to write! I still use 2 main platforms: gab, and mastodon; I also scan a few others but don’t participate much – if at all. Today I want to talk about gab. Again. I probably use gab slightly …

GUEST POST from Don – Workslop

WORKSLOP Have you heard this term yet?  It is simply that AI doesn’t “work” very well.  Since it “hallucinates” data so often it creates charts, graphs and other business data which are filled with “gobbledygook.”  Then, knowledgeable humans have to “correct” the program’s data and re-publish charts and graphs with correct information.  95% of businesses which went “whole hog” …

GUEST POST from Don: Kid Tech +

SAFER TECH (and cheap) FOR KIDS What mobile tech do you want your 9 or 12 year old girl (or boy) to have? Up until a couple years ago the choices were limited, expensive, and BAD. There were no inexpensive or GOOD choices. Your options were between an Apple or Android phone. Yes, you could …

GUEST POST from Don – Templates +

TIRED OF TEMPLATES + It is true that if you look for anything on the internet you will often find the lowest possible denominator.  What pops up first is the site most clicked, not the most informative or accurate.  However, I’ve never operated that way.  I look first for reputable sites.  I go to places like Cleveland Clinic or …

Supernal Sunday – March 23 2025 Edition

Want to try an exercise in futility? Try finding ANYTHING in the Bible that tells us deception is a good thing! Pretty much everything I could find about God’s truths on the topic are below… This command keeps coming to mind as I researched today’s topic (not necessarily for today, but for my own life …

GUEST POST from Don – AI and RX +

AI and RX + AI is coming far faster than it should.  It knows no boundaries and has no shame.  Without boundaries it will do for Medicine what Garmin did for travel.  Faster, easier, more accurate … most of the time.  110% failure at other points.   Garmin showed us that not paying attention could put you into a lake …

GUEST POST from Don: Turn Off the Cloud (+ a few)

TURN OFF the CLOUD + a few There are numerous reasons to abandon the cloud, push for elimination of AI features, and shut down data mining operations, (including things like Bitcoin “farms”).  The best reason:  Together these 3 things use more electricity than all of the electric vehicles.  How can we conscientiously use these tools AND be in …

Saturday Social – UPDATE

This is an update after I talked about the changes in Gab’s media policies last week. From my perspective not much has changed, except that more people have been helping each other. There are still a few complaining, but for the most part I am seeing some members sharing with others where and how they …
