I don’t get the logic of slowing down with people in the way. You’re in a heavy ambulance, they’ll move.

A friend of mine was actually kinda impressed that his 2 year old opened a locked door, walked down to the gas station and tried to get a candy bar, at 2am. Obviously the cashier called 911, kid was fine.

My mother asked me the other day “does $LocalGroceryStore still take cash?”

I looked at her like she had five heads and said, “yes”

The CEO of Costco literally said to a consultant “if you make me dump the 1.50 hotdogs, I’ll kill you”

About the “nobody can take your money” part.

Etherium Classic exists because somebody hacked an extremely valuable wallet and funneled 13% of all eth into their wallet. The people who control the mining pools, (rich assholes) wanted that transaction reversed, so they hard forked. Classic is the main fork that didn’t reverse that transaction. It’s much less popular, despite being run by people who are demonstrably more principled.

Paraphrased from Dan Olson’s video “line goes up” about crypto’s history and affect on the world. Spoiler: it’s a scam, and a tool for the wealthy to get even richer. Computing power can be bought with dollars.

I ran into a similar problem after a bios update.

Turns out “this update may wipe out your bitlocker key” also means “if you don’t have bitlocker turned on, it’ll just wipe out your windows key.”

There’s always gonna be an admin of some kind unless we all run our own instances, but that ends up with everyone just in large echo chambers again, as they federate only with people they agree with, or to scream at people they don’t.

Counterpoint: 4k camera modules are getting rapidly cheaper, it’s standard in cell phones now. Gyroscope modules used to be crazy expensive, then Nintendo ordered 400 million of them for the Wii.

Who’s the red dress? Don’t recognize her?

Not just “more pissed”

Pissed off beyond all semblance of rational thought.

This would ABSOLUTELY start a war.

At least aluminum actually is recyclable.

That’s exactly what this is.

Give me a viable other option, please! Biden is soggy, cold oatmeal from 4 days ago that’s probably still fine. Trump is medical waste mixed with gasoline and uranium powder.

This is exactly why the “defund the police” movement is so popular.

Traffic cops do not need to be armed.

I know this isn’t the point, but I thought ammo was much cheaper than that.

The one issue I have with graphene is the incredibly broken backup, but they know that and are working on replacing it.

Other than that, rock solid.

I can’t stand dock shenanigans, I just froze it to never hide except with full screen video.

Yeah, I reflexively double quote every path. It’s still stupid though.

This is great and all, but yeah. This is “yay, the world is very slightly less crappy.”

Isn’t the concept of kernel live-patching just “wait until the kernel’s not using that module, and slip in anupdatesd version”

Here’s an extremely depressing answer. The mentality is broken
