  lowering fuel taxes is not a solution to the fuel cost crisis the solution to the fuel cost crisis is (1) a switch to green energy in the long term and (2) crushing sanctions against the usa in the short term

  genuine question is spam actually still a problem i see products like incogni or something that seem to base their entire identity off of being ways to defeat spam/places that have your emails but i'll be honest: i barely, barely receive spam. i can't remember the last time i got a completely unsolicited Spam Email; at worst, i'll sometimes get something unwanted from a company who didn't properly unsub me or added me to a new mailer list. do i just have good digi...

  some people with GenAI brain are so fucking funny they'll say things like "god this stuff makes me miserable" and "if I could do it all over i wouldn't use it" like, my fellow bioform.... you can just fucking stop. you know that, right? you can just put the fucking bobot down and start the process of repairing your brain, today. will it be difficult? perhaps. will it be better for you, and your company, and the world, in the medium, long, an...

  (very on mushrooms voice) dragons are probably related to centaur given how these are the only two notable species that have a 6-limbed symmetrical structure as opposed to the traditional arm/leg paradigm. dragons being coldblooded and lizardlike is probably an example of convergent evolution, perhaps scales being an adaptation to sliding more smoothly through gold piles and having better aerodynamics, with the coldblooded aspect suiting the isolated long-term hibernation/stasis cycles.

  the year is 2040. i am the last developer hand-writing code. i make a UNION query in postgresql and a palantir drone disintegrates my apartment with a laser. a hologram of donald trump promises that the kerfuffle with Iran will be over soon.

  something to remember about the Ed Sheeran thing is this: it is not surprising that Ed is an inveterate coward more interested in money and pacification than justice. it's super easy for us to think "well, if my net worth was almost half a billion dollars, that's FUCK YOU money and i wouldn't let myself be bullied by anyone", because most of us don't have, and will never have, fuck you money. money rots your brain. it is a cognitohazard on the level of a cursed ring or...

  you're poly because your heart is a boundless crucible of love and you could ladle it into the open mouths of a thousand different people and still find it no less full than when you started I'm poly because having lots of partners will give them herd advantages if a blackmailer tries to kidnap one of them to get to me we are not the same

  does anyone ever get the feeling that they are living in the timeline that keeps them alive for the longest? that every potential car crash, even time you slip and wobble a little on a wet stairwell, every time you feel a piece of food almost get lodged in your throat, that some other world had you splattered or tumbled or choking and you're just unaware of it because it pared off from the reality in which you inhabit?

  mockery as praxis is understated and if we took making tech chuds miserable seriously we'd be a lot better off a society.

  thanks very much, mister "Terry Pratchett", if that IS your real name, for forever ruining SMALLCAPS to all us shitty garbage writers who'd like to add some weight to a snippet of text every now and then but know that doing so will force our work to be compared to yours and no doubt be left direly wanting

  I personally find "computer science is actually a humanities study" takes pretty trite because the reality is that almost everything is a humanities study, by the definition being applied. Every field of study benefits enormously from the ability to relate to, work with, empathise with, understand the needs of, assess the impacts of new developments on, and be patient with, other humans. Every single one. Even engineering. Even physics. Even pure maths. Every single "...

  i am deadly serious about my thoughts about financial excommunication if someone is a reckless driver who poses a danger to others, we take away their license to drive. why should money be different? if you are a reckless danger to other people's lives because of how you use your money, you should lose your right to interact with money until youcan show society your reformation.

  oh yes? did you "get" them with your "rage bait"? or did you just do the thing where you act like a muppet to the degree that it's functionally the same as just being one?
