here for the good vibes!
I thought someone might. I just happened to be watching it last night, so I remembered the power rating of the laser.
Great Scott!
for those wondering, the (fictional) laser in the 1985 film Real Genius that could vaporize a human target from space was 9.4 megawatts.
“He’s tuning the other cheek!”
“Stop resisting!"
If Jesus came along today, they’d cast him out as a socialist and probably kill him in a botched police raid.
This is exactly what Musk’s lawyers will claim when Trump tries to get Musk to pay.
yikes! what assholes!
yikes! what assholes!
what evidence is there that this is the case?
edit: oh, I see. that’s… pretty damning!
FTA:
“The officers began questioning Ms. MacCarthy and made it clear that they were given the racially charged information that Ms. MacCarthy’s daughter was possibly being trafficked by her simply because Ms. MacCarthy is White and her daughter is Black,” the lawsuit said.
The crux of the alleged civil rights violation is that the report was based purely on racial profiling and nothing else, which the police made clear when they interviewed the alleged victims. so, it’s not a matter of reporting vs enforcement; it’s a matter of the basis of the report itself, which MacCarthy alleges was, as the police informed her, was in violation of her (and her daughter’s) civil rights.
I have a niece and nephew who are half Chinese. It just now occurred to me how racist assholes could make this a problem for me if I ever were in such a situation!
he won’t even pay his rent or his own legal bills… he stiffs his own employees on severance packages. he’s lying if he promises anything.
i don’t think you’re misremembering it, it’s just that there was a huge commercial push to quash the idea of a “communist internet” that would cut them out of the business by sharing cheap/free internet service. plus, the tech evolved.
but the idea of mesh wifi didn’t die. in several major cities, mesh wifi/internet solutions exist. NYC Mesh, for example, is the local mesh network here in NYC:
We are a diverse group of volunteers dedicated to ending the digital divide and extending high-speed, reliable internet to all New Yorkers. You can help by joining our community network to get online, volunteering to connect neighbors or grow the network, and donating to improve our community infrastructure and ensure access for all.
for some reason, i don’t think that would stop him from trying anyway and then throwing a tantrum for being ineligible.
wtf…musk is an idiot
I saw the toot on mastodon. Did not re-toot.
no kidding. how interesting. if nothing else, he’ll add some interesting political discourse.
this is how bullies operate. bold and loud but, ultimately, cowards with no conviction.
