There was a subreddit called HailCorporate for when people accidentally post ads that they made themselves. Like we hear so much advertising that we start internalizing it and end up basically thinking and talking in ads.
Of course it kind of typically devolved into accusations of intent, but I always thought it was a neat idea. Does life imitate art or the other way around type of thing?
Yeah really fuckin hate this comic see it all over Lemmy, blocked the /c. It's basically just a wet blanket masquerading as"edgy" while co-opting the Linux community to seem more fringe. In reality it just screams "they must be fun at parties" while trying to make everyone as bummed as they are. Like calling a cat meme corporate propaganda.
I didn’t realize Siri and the cats were conspiring. Yesterday I went into the living room to investigate a ruckus and found one of my cats sitting on the couch while the home pod in the window sill was playing Mumford and Sons.
So for all of apple's design faults, I genuinely think this might have been intentional because it feels like the venn diagram of Apple software engineers and cat owners is more like a circle.
My brain somehow didn't grasp that I had never heard of a Homepod before, then when I saw your comment I had to think back and was like "wait a second, Siri? That's not google or Alexa" and I had to reread to understand.
Anyway all to say, I'm tired and not reading well but their advertising must be pretty shit if this is the first ad I've ever seen for it.
I’ve got one, syncs up easily with other Apple devices but the sound isn’t great. If I hadn’t had a gift card to knock down the price it would not be worth $100, I’ve had cheaper Bluetooth speakers with better sound and hardiness.
You’d think it would be a cat telling people to kill. Or at least knock shit off the table. Son of Sam could have just been some guy who went into peoples houses and broke stuff.
David Berkowitz. He claimed that in court, and later retracted the statement. Sonny from the Venture Bros parody of the Scooby Gang is also a reference to him.
My poodle knows how to tap the homepad with his nose to play music. He gets up to it, taps it, and then curls down beneath it to listen. It’s very cute and definitely intentional on his part.
