As preparation for confirmation I had to follow classes. The more I learned, the less it made sense to me.

I want Micro Machines V5 but EA has taken that away from me.

It’s less confusing if you just boil it down to the essence of “waaaaah I’m old and the world doesn’t cater to me, personally, anymore.”

Because they’re dumb and there are no real downsides for their failures.

These dumb as fuck morons are our Meritocratic Betters who apparently deserve the tenfold or hundredfold of our salaries.

The mute is from the excellent list maintained by @hedgehogsafety.bsky.social

They’re maintained by @asukafield.xyz, you can choose labels or block/mute lists. I find them to be fairly accurate, although there are some false positives, which is why I use labels instead of the lists.

Controversial opinion but I don’t think this guy should have the power to end all life on this planet.

I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.

This video is lowballing it.

That area is like a joke to the rest of Switzerland, they’re seen as backward yokels, for a reason it seems.

Although it did give us arguably the best German yodeling song ever (as inspiration, the performer is German).

The account in question being tagged by a bunch of transphobia labels.

lol amazing. Yeah it was a favorite in the atheist/skeptics blogosphere in the latter half of the aughst, I’m not surprised it originated in those spheres.

I give up, Claude is conscious. Ergo AI developers must face imprisonment or execution for performing medical experiments on their living slave.

Personal responsibility only for the peons, never for the powerful.

And as part of running for office, it’s literally part of the job to motivate voters to come vote for you. What the fuck are we even doing here? Do you understand anything about politics?

My brother, we had to explain a 1/3 pound burger was bigger than a quarter pound burger and still failed

The guy who wrote is a theocratic fascist, so entirely sincere.

You can argue the WaPo printing it is meant as rage bait, but at this point…

When this guy needs medical care he’ll go to the most expensive and exclusive private clinic.

All this ai garbage is just so they can remove the last vestiges of services (healthcare amongst others, education is another big one) for us peons, without us complaining too much.

Very relevant thread on this:

Like this narrative that the campaigns for equal marriage were a friendly public conversation where everybody respected each other is wild as fuck. It was only about ten years ago and you guys kept implying we wanted to fuck dogs.

“But these parents are victims of misinformation”. Counterpoint: what if we beat this “parent” to death with our bare hands?

Hell, Charlemagne was a big proponent of education, founding schools and a uniform education system.

Yeah he definitely wants to set off a nuke before he’s gone. I hope when he dies it’s rather swift so he doesn’t have time to order one, otherwise we’re fucked.

We honestly should have hanged every Iraq war booster.

In programming, there's something called the Inner Platform Effect.

Basically, programmers replicate their development environment, in the programs they write.

Think, vim users unconsciously making their program act a lot like vim, etc.

tech CEO in 2026: My computer has anxiety.
venture capitalist in 2026: Here, have 200 billion more dollars.

child in 2006: My NeoPet is angry at me.
mom in 2006: No it isn't sweetie, go to bed.
mom to dad in 2006: We have an idiot boy. Our boy is a little idiot person. It's too late to fix him.

It’s 2026 and apparently transphobes *still * believe there are Secret Trans Activists working at Elons x.com conspiring to delete “likes” on a particular tweet from Queen Transphobe Rowling.

What if they just made something new that was good

No, butter chicken comes directly from India, it’s chicken tiki masala which was invented in Scotland.

Both are awesome. Although I prefer vindaloo.
