I hope, of all people here, you most directly feel the influence of Musk in your life.. Trust me, it will not be pleasant..

Are you "consenting" to starving children, then?

Sure, people with ZERO enterprise experience might say - hey, let's write our <main software> in PHP - I had a lot of fun 15 years ago with that, and I'm sure we can make it work.. That's the "3 toothpicks" in

10 times? Wow.. That seems like a lot.. AFAIK, even once is indication of potentially serious trauma.

My wife had this done when doing a biopsy, IIRC, and it scarred here / gave her PTSD for years.. She now insists on full sedation.

I mean, sure, that's true for most people. SOME people have (so-called) photographic memories and CAN tell you what they had for dinner 30 years ago, what day of the week it was, what the weather was like that day, etc..

As I age, this x1000. Even simple slack app on my windows laptop - clicking in the overview scroll bar is NOT "move down a page". It seems to be "the longer you click, the further it moves" or something equally disgustin

Any suggestions for alternatives? I set up an account and tested a transfer to an out-of-country account, just in case I need to leave the US.. It worked painlessly. But recently, I think they closed my account pending more documents. Also,

Or, would you whistleblow on Tesla, if you knew any out of a hundred companies was behind it, like Meta, Alphabet, Amazon, ...? About the only "big" entity I MIGHT trust would be Berkshire Hathaway..

I mean, 35 years ago, a random stranger on the internet was MORE trustworthy in my eyes than some people I knew face-to-face. These days? Pfft...

My initial thought was DOGE/ICE or something, to catch anyone wanting report actual injustice and stop them..

If you shop at Safeway (Albertsons?) and need a member's discount, but don't have a membership/number, 510-867-5309 works. Staff members have specifically mentioned it.

What phones do you recommend? I have an S21 FE I got free from Metro PCS (I got laid off, had to return company S20 phone). Others in the family have Pixel / moto. I get the feeling the later galaxy phones are much worse than the S21?

I mean.. that's based on the assumption that they actually care about delivering a working appliance.. As long as the spyware works, they don't really care about the "cooling food" part..

I think he made public mention of "donating to the wrong guy" to get one side to like him more. IIRC, he donated similar or more to the "other" side, but just didn't make a big deal of it publicly.

Check out: "UFO, End Times Delusion" as an example of a fundie take on extra terrestrials. A bit old now, not sure if they've updated it, but it's the kind of stuff I was raised in in the 80s/90s.

So let's say everything is cheap - will that lower housing prices? Grocery prices? Energy prices? Or will the cheapest provider gobble everyone else up and then raise prices to maximize marginal revenue / whatever everyone can bea

Did you not see them firing thousands of people from the department of education and trying to fully close it (at the federal level)? They put Linda (*@&#$ McMahon (yes, from WWE wrestling) in charge of it..

Dang, that was hard on the eyes..

They also ignore that a lot of the knowledge they now have / have studied comes FROM others sharing freely.

Agreed. My dad was raised strongly fundamentalist, and in North America, that included (back then) strongly resisting unions. In hindsight, I've come to realize that my parent's weren't maybe even of average intelligence, and

A bunch of short scripts doesn't easily lead to a large-scale robust software platform. I guess if managers get canned, it'll be just marketing types left?

Ah, Barbarian.. That was like the holy grail of the Atari ST scene back in the day.. TWO floppies, not just one! And it took a couple of hours each to download at 2400 baud.. (my family hated picking up the phone and hearing the modem scree

For a few hundred dollars, given heavily-VC-subsidized hardware that is probably partially funded by nvidia and various AI companies, etc. Can I run it on my local hardware (nvidia consumer card, AMD cpu)? No. When could that corporation c

I'll disagree with your "disagreement" - of course, I went to a relatively unique school: Waterloo computer engineering with co-op in the 90s. 8 study semesters, 6 work semesters. Clearly lets you see what "work" is
