  11. Tons of sites offer to turn text into tunes. They all want your information, must sign up, give away your identity. They probably don't do a good job of it anyway. (Aesop: sour grapes.)

  12. Apparently, I'm avoiding work and simultaneously feeling political anxiety/annoyance. Anyway, here.

  13. This is 'rip out all the Unix servers and replace them with Windows' all over again and people entertain giving him dozens of billions of dollars for his smarts.

    ...Or he's just super jelly that Apple went with OpenAI and not whatever amateur hour ai he's got going

  14. also i checked and they’re not hiring locally #SourGrapes

    but if you want to do cool EMS related analysis, delivery, or development stuff and can be based in Stockholm, Copenhagen, or Oslo… with customers all over the world… look up careers at Omda

  15. Disappointed that Dallas wasn't chosen for the final match 😢 but judging by the cornball announcement show, maybe that's not such a bad thing.

    AT&T Stadium falls short of scoring World Cup final
    ⚽ 🏆 🏟️

    AT&T Stadium in Arlington will host nine games in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

  16. > [I] was the designer of Blogger...

    Seems to me that it's a combination of #NotInventedHere and #SourGrapes that's resulting in some "charged language".

    > I wasn't asking you

    And before you block me, nobody asked you for your opinion either.

  17. This dude has absolutely no credibility. He blames #JoeBiden for his firing, and is clearly a bitter man desperately trying to hurt the people he blames for his fall. There's no good reason to believe a word that comes out of his mouth.

  18. Related: I made $48.34 on @medium last month for 70 published stories. #sourgrapes

  19. @harriettmb I think it is all they have left. They are all irrelevant now. They need to be finding something to be offended by because it keeps them in the spotlight. They are the permanently offended crew! Everyone and everything that doesn't agree with them has to be attacked.

    This nonsense with the flag is because Foster has to try and distract from her getting her ass handed to her about the 'anti British' comment. Farage and Hoey are annoyed that GB didn't get a visit. #Sourgrapes

  20. The three "best US players" could really use some coaching in grace and attitude. Jesus. #SourGrapes #WorldJuniors #SoreLosers

  21. For sour, the day 11 #inktober prompt, I thot of the fabled sour grapes. If you haven't heard "The Fox and the Grapes" fable by Aesop, you should.

  22. @urusan
    My idea of middle managers are those of a supervisory role. Team leaders. It's rather unfair to put them down like that. I can't see how a large business can do without them.

    Unless the people who are against the idea of having middle managers actually* have a better* idea on how to run a business... #SourGrapes #CrabMentality

    And you didn't answer my questions.

    Never mind.

    I'm guessing the critics aren't themselves bosses/executives/managers. #work #jobs

  23. "No one has been prosecuted..."

    Of course. He was the only one not in the high bourgeoisie, why are you surprised?

  24. When I see/read this kind of stories I always wonder how many grifters just go uncaught. Not only in wine but anywhere. Like that girl in California whose name I don't remember.
