- Comment on The Dangers of Socialism they warned us about... 2 days ago:
that are a mix of socialism and capitalism
What boils down to wealth distribution and letting wealth concentrate, but with fancier words. You need a balance of the two.

Not really. Pastors are being pushed out for being too woke and replaced by a more right wing figure. The congregation gets what the congregation wants. They’ve gone supply-side Jesus.
- Comment on No ChatGPT for sexy time 1 week ago:
Just the same as many folks falling on hard time grab for booze and/or other substances to get to their day. People I general don’t become poor by doing drugs first. But that would mean admitting society has structural issues that are most likely very profitable to a small minority.

The budget was cut by Musk. That makes it DOGE Diarrhea.

You can’t properly extract value from and exploit customers when somebody else is giving customers exactly what they want. How rude!

while the library itself is covered in a thick layer of slop as the librarian can’t keep up anymore and the road signs pointing at the library are taken down
- Comment on Sound of silence 5 weeks ago:
Reminds me of the study with loud cars .
“We found that it was sadism and psychopathy predicting who wants to modify their mufflers, who feels more connected to their vehicle, and [who thinks] loud cars are really cool,” Schermer told CBC News.
“It seems to be this callous disregard for other people’s feelings and their reactions. That’s the psychopathy coming out and it’s also they probably get a kick out of enjoying watching people get startled.”

They had a guy like that at a work site. In the end somebody ground down some of the graphite part of a pencil and sprinkled that down the openings of his boom box. It short-circuited when he tried to switch it on the next time and there was silence after that.

Penguins just haven’t been around humans enough to avoid them, like most mainland animals learned the hard way.

If you click it enough the counter roles over and is back in good territory

Same with cyberpunk lore. Often that reads like current events, but in the end it’s extrapolation of events back then mixed with knowledge of history.

Budget Xena?

Welcome to the 11 foot 8 bridge. Turns out the reason is a sewer pipe under the road, and a train bridge above.

I was hoping something like Project Silica would take off for home use

That’s the Christian people when the pastor reads from the bible they’ll complain he’s too woke and leftist.

It is in the end parts of French, Latin, Dutch, German and Norse duct-taped together and forced into a trenchcoat.

- Comment on Anon is an introvert 2 months ago:
Turns out these people identify with the teams and feel a victory as if it was their own. The “We won!” crowd. Some other folks have a stronger separation between self and other and don’t have any emotional attachment with some sports team that did something.

They only look at next quarter estimates
- Comment on I'm going to change the world 2 months ago:
No more CO2 means no more greenhouse effect. Everything froze, and you can’t do photosynthesis well through a thick layer of ice, so the die, CO2 gets released as they rot. Maybe some large volcano erupts, things thaw again and they repeat the cycle.

You can try supercritical CO2 now if you don’t like water.
- Comment on Vibe management 2 months ago:
Costs. AI companies have been running at a big loss using investment money trying to scale quickly and conquer the market. That always comes at an end and something closer to the real costs has to be paid.
- Comment on Vibe management 2 months ago:
That was always the reason AI was put into everything.
- Comment on Boomer comics 2 months ago:
And the rich are even buying up trailer parks to squeeze money out of the people there, so even becoming trailer park trash with kids is unaffordable.

- Comment on WTF is a meter? 2 months ago:
You can use yard. It’s 0.914 meter so close enough. If they ask how many feet and inch that is, that’s an imperial problem.
