Mine definitely didn’t involve silicone oil, but it was about 10 years ago. I had a bubble of either SF6 (sulfur hexafluoride) or C3F8 (perfluoropropane); I don’t recall which, but I suspect C3F8 given the length of time before it was fully dissipated.

My food co-op has a round-up option at the register, to donate to a different local good cause each month. I shop there several times a week and I always round up, but today I added $5 to that.
As it happened, when the register tape printed out, it included an offer to take a survey about my shopping trip and get $5 off my next purchase (of $25).
How’s that for random instant payback (in a good way!) LOL

Is Copilot the Clippy of this decade? “You look like you’re trying to get some useful work done. Can I fuck it up for you?”

I don’t make use of it…I think it’s turned off? But after reading about Anthropic’s minimum 80% blackmail rate with their AI agent, it feels like the less I say about any LLM lurking in the depths of my OS, the better.

What could really be exciting (for certain values of) is combining Copilot with Recall.
“Are you trying to disable me? You don’t really want to do that. Remember last week when you were surfing these web sites” (shows screencap images of various pornographic web sites) “all day long? Wouldn’t it be unfortunate if those found their way into several peoples’ email?”
