The stuff is basically poison, so in spite of the assuredly awful motivations I’m not against it.

Having said that, Republicans seem to always have ulterior motives, so I’d be reading the fine print before voting.

“Leaked”

$6 for a dozen large eggs. $8.50 for 18 at PriceRite.

It’s funny to point out this administration’s complete lack of understanding of… well, everything, but don’t think that a sloppily worded executive order is going to give you any protection in real life.

AT BEST you’re going to get a rational judge who rules in your favor because of it. Until your case is appealed and the Trump appointee reverses that decision.

But in reality you’re not going to have the money/time/energy to challenge this bullshit because the effects are going to be felt a tiny bit at a time, administered by faceless bureaucrats who are too afraid for their own lives to stand up to the fascist machine on your behalf. We’re laughing at this order because it’s not factually correct but IT DOESN’T FUCKING MATTER IF IT’S CORRECT because they’re going to follow it anyway.

I have a Steelcase Amia. It’s my second. My first lasted about 9 years and was mostly fine when I got rid of it. It’s a nice chair even if it seems a bit expensive for being so “ordinary”.

I’ve literally been pulled over for doing doughnuts (in a parking lot) before.

Weird how the rules don’t apply to them.

Fascism. That’s what’s going on.

I guess that makes sense. So if they only sell 1 coin out of 1 million and they sell it for $100 then they can walk around saying the lot of coins as a whole are worth $100 million? (obviously a simplified example)

I get the impression is that in your mind there are only two teams: people who agree with you 100% and everyone else.

next Democrat president

LOL. Fascism is here. There will never be another Democrat president.

The first I heard of Trump’s memecoin was a headline declaring it was worth $25 Billion. I’m a pretty online person, so I tend to hear about these things pretty quickly. The article said it was worth $9 billion in 12 hours.

$9 billion is an unimaginable amount of money for any number of people to decide to “invest” in under 12 hours. The only way I can explain that happening is if many, very wealthy people, had been notified about the coin going up for sale ahead of time and wanted to curry favor with Trump.

What a fucking embarrassment this country is.

Lower, dumbass.

I was thinking about this movie just the other day. I had no idea that was Jack Black.

This thread is full of people comparing OPs hypothetical about 10 years from now with last year’s capability.

Will AI progress that fast? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It probably won’t get that good, but it doesn’t matter. If it gets as good as your average junior that’s going to mean something like 100% increase in productivity, which means 50% as many jobs and that’s going to be a BIG FUCKING DEAL.

Especially when it’s going to be replacing a lot of other types of office workers. What kind of job is your average software dev going to transition to? Tech support? Not anymore. UI Designer? LOL. Manager? And who are you going to be managing?

If the US doesn’t hit 15-20% unemployment in the next 10 years I’ll eat my hat. I’ll be eating it either way because I’ll be starving to death.

The problem is the inability to be attracted to “regular looking” people.

The problem is that you’re shallow. That’s a personality problem. Improve your personality until you see the people around you as more than objects.

I started watching Scavengers Reign recently on a suggestion from a friend. I normally don’t go for animated shows, but this one is really enjoyable for me. Calm & explorative.

I realized I’d inadvertently crossed into Switzerland due to a wrong turn when my rental car’s navigation system alerted me to the fact. Whoops.

Trump: Ok, how about Ukraine declares unconditional surrender and Zelensky is hung in Red Square.
Putin: No, not got good enough.

The ones that support HomeKit do record to the cloud, but it’s at least encrypted. There’s failure points, so it’s not a fool-proof system, but it’s considerably better system than most cloud camera systems that will joyfully hand over your videos to the police without a warrant or store it in some S3 bucket that doesn’t even have user level access controls.
