Have you looked into 80,000 Hours?

ID scanning has become very common in Texas. Lowers insurance rates for sellers and gives the state a full database of alcohol purchases.

It’s unclear how this is feasible. Also, are we saying “cookies” these days?

With NordVPN? Cool. You know what the top of a funnel looks like?

The tech-savvy relative should have had them on Firefox long ago. They don’t need a fork. Firefox will do.

There are a lot of people who appreciate tongue action. If you’re 32, I’ve got 15 years on you, and if you’re already thinking you have less ahead than behind, that’s going to be something internalized.

Being in stasis is getting old. I moved into this house nearly three months ago, and I only brought minimal belongings in because it’s been 100F the whole time. I figured I’d have a few days in June to pack out, but, c’est la vie.

Things are on the horizon … I fly to Arizona to spread my dad’s ashes at the end of October, and my ex-wife is providing ground transportation to AUS. The land search for the commune continues apace, but I have zero control over that.

But for right now … it’s still 100F as far as the eye can see. We were hoping for a bit of a cooldown from Edouard, but it turned north.

It’s hard to understand how anyone who was using uBO on Chrome was unaware this was coming. The Manifest V3 shit started years ago, and I expect uBO users to be more technically literate than the general public.

This is definitely one of those “the longer you look, the worse it gets” things.

At lower right, we apparently have a real-world option to turn off that damn noise. Moving slightly up, at the top of what appears to be a pneumatic lift towering to six inches are marshmallows or ice cubes. Both are an issue as they are known for not being pink.

We have avocado-shaped markings on these … what are they, anyway? The one on the left literally has a pig snout and ears, plus something from Tron designed for a dog.

To the right? The ultimate symbol of depravity (one notes Macavity wasn’t there). This is a rat who isn’t just evil (red … thing) but also poorly stroked. Can you imagine going through life with one or two points of white outline on your body?

Rats, as we know, famously enjoy caviar, hence our friend at the counter both speaking and thinking about red spheres.

We have found a new use for a dashed yellow arrow!

I expect to see waves of Dolly Parton-related layoffs in the coming months.

Great. Relevance to the topic at hand?

Going to Faux News for science is … a choice. Also, jesus christ, kids these days and the luxury of having the space to replace “glaucoma” with “eye disease that can cause irreversible vision loss.”

We all fucking know what glaucoma is. This isn’t some 2026 development that’s flown under the radar.

I also have no idea what this has to do with technology.

Anyway, for those interested in the paper, it’s here.

I prefer buying my music by the track at a reasonable price, having a couple of backups and not paying monthly.

I mean, if you’ve got 15 grand to burn, I can promise to never ask you to go SCUBA diving.

Fucking hell. Really?

Also, a pox on any hed writer that goes with “Goodbye, Dolly!”

Yeah, and I’m going to urinate ahead of death. At least, I hope so.

Point being, the hed is a cheque the threadbare story can’t cash. There’s no causality. “Apple lays off staffers ahead of heat death of universe” also works. In the latter case, no reasonable person would see entropy at fault.

I was thinking of what I wanted for breakfast.

The Texas cities are an AP Style aneurysm.

Little Pentagonal Bowl sounds like a band name.
