Queer middle-aged guy. I work on radars. Opinions are my own but I'm trying to make them everyone else's problem also. In my spare time I fence and make music.

People Are Calling Meta Ray-Bans "Pervert Glasses" On Bluesky, users quickly embraced the term "pervert glasses" to refer to Meta's Ray Ban smart glasses, following a shocking investigation.

Make it stick.

We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.

I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going β€œwow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic

The element? The part that is actually holding up the program with little to no progress in quite some time

Gallup will stop tracking presidential approval. This is because the White House is very committed to hiding everything under 18.

I want to emphasize the serious problem with space advocacy turning into a quasi-religion. In the last two days, I've seen zealotry drive arguments and nothing technical or practical but instead fantastical. Far too many people think science fiction is real.

β€œI see you’re trying to write a strongly worded letter; have you considered realizing that your opposition is a conspiracy of billionaire pedophiles murdering Americans and you still can’t seem to accomplish anything? Maybe you should resign.”

Why would Elon Musk pivot from Mars to the Moon all of a sudden? SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon."

Watching Eric Berger (historically a Musk fanboy) struggle with the revelation that Musk is a fake engineer conman white supremacist never loses its entertainment value

Anyone planning to build a self-growing city on Moon could start by building a self-growing city on Earth

β€œFor Mars advocates, however, Musk’s turn is a bitter pill to swallow. There have long been many dreamers who spoke of settling Mars, but only Musk actually built the hardware and financial war chest to make such dreams a reality.”

Notice the framing of sex trafficking victims as β€œconsensual sex workers” and the simultaneous framing of consensual sex workers as β€œsex trafficking victims”

That these contacts aren't immediately worth zero is a damning indictment. not on the losers buying yes shares, but rather Polymarket itself. This shows there is absolutely no faith in the company to clear contracts. The yes bet is against the platform itself functioning as a credible exchange

Elon has apparently finally abandoned his 20 year long assertion that he was just about to build a city on Mars any day now :-)

Americans talk a big game about various amendments and are especially vocal about one particular.

Whether you’re Pliny the Younger scratching his head about punishing Christians, government goons trying to intimidate midwesterners in winter, or public health authorities trying to fight infectious disease, you’re forced to contend with a nearly infinite capacity for human stubbornness
