Edible gold is a food additive (code E 175) but you don’t want to inject it. Holy crap.

China is spending a fraction of what US companies are burning through. Profitability will be a lot lower bar. Plus they’ve been investing in renewable energy to power it.

And why can’t the league undo it? They could just replace the band.

Just as soon as Ketamine Man gets his rockets to stop blowing up or looking like crispy critters when they ditch in the ocean.

konnichiwa infidels! We rain death on you with a side of wasabi!

Absolutely nothing 1984 about any of that.

No kidding. What are we going to do about it? The great thing about big data…the bigger the pool, the easier it is to pee in it.

This is just the automated version of what’s been happening the last decade in social media. The foreign influence operations have been very effective at driving splits among Democrats. I know Reddit is rife with them but wondering about them operating here as well. The pattern sure seems to hold on some controversial topics.

With our current government, how do you trust either side of this discussion? Sure, I can see the DoE favoring big Republican donors that offer remediation technologies. But who can trust the Trump GAO?

Why does a vision of mobs with torches and bulldozers come to mind?

For years…every time I needed to configure a printer. Sometimes when I needed to find drivers for a wifi card. These days…it just works.

Someone should remind those soggy, arrogant execs that down here in the developer trenches we survived web services, software as a service, outsourcing, and off-shoring. We’re still here after all that and we’ll still be here after AI.

I’m having early 2000s flashbacks. Overseas developers were going to replace us all for a fraction of the cost. We had to turn over our code…almost like training AI. That lasted until the first SQL server update that broke, literally, everything they did. Then they wanted a huge amount of money and weeks to get it working again. That really put management in a bind because they told us not to touch their code. Ooookay, fine. Meanwhile, I’m looking at 2,000 character URL string containing the database admin account and password in plain text.

Modern problems, meet modern solutions.

What kind of eleet haxor dude uses Windows?

Elite hacker uses…Windows. Come on, man.

It really wasn’t that hard to see the SpaceX ipo was mostly a scam. And yet there are post after post of people losing their entire fortune, house, future after investing in this sow. Just blinding stupidity to invest in any company run by a ketamine addict who should be in prison over that DOGE bullshit.

Tax that dweed fuck so much he’s afraid to show his face in public.

That’s not totally fair to Cleveland. They terminated the contract, Flock just kept right on recording. The same thing happened in many other cities. When maintenance crews service the lights, they should remove the cameras. Keep them in storage until Flock comes to get them.

Ram prices. Those of us who saw it coming, apparently a number between 7% and 15%, bought a bridge PC before the price gouging started.
