I wrote on a magnitude English better quality than 90% of the world.

The biggest difference between transistor radios and BT hardware is that BT will never give you a prize for being the 9th caller.

I’m just starting “blasphemous” and “inscription”. I just completed “Axiom Verge”.

An (American) football team my family follows used to have a coach that got so upset over plays and calls that he would advance onto the field gesticulating and screaming, causing the team to get penalties.

Did they council this guy to control himself? No. They got someone on staff to physically restrain him when he lost his mind. Like the kid’s only job was to grab the coach by the belt-loops and keep him off the field.

I love this story because it’s about a masculine man engaging in a masculine activity who cannot be expected to control his own hysterics. I keep it in my back pocket for when the “men are stoic, women are emotional” BS comes up.

This is not about stopping bot-scrapers, it’s about charging them.

A coworker once told me that the South was doomed because the North had a larger industrial base. I said that sounded like wisdom in English, but it was a joke in Vietnamese.

It’s a good read. AI is a scam and the tech bros need it to be transformative for their shareholders, not their users.

But having a different set of values and goals than the ones you espouse is called hypocrisy, not nihilism.

No recoil, but you might feel a little sting.

This is the first one of these I’ve upvoted.

Oh no! The harrier? Did they get the specs for the Avro Vulcan? What about the Spitfire?

“I’m a lethal threat to the women close to me” is surprisingly honest and open misogyny . You’d probably hit the front page of Reddit with this meme.

Your search has still only turned up a forgery.

I’m trying to imagine the user that both needs a text editor in the command line, yet is uncomfortable outside a gui.

I write scripts all day, but closing a program without clicking the little ‘x’ is scary and weird.

What are you even talking about!? Nobody gives a shit if they bomb or kill people. Raising gas prices will bring more military consequences in a week than you’d get for a hundred years of genocide.

Democrats pretend to be progressive the way Republicans pretend to be Christian. Just a virtue signal that can be jettisoned the instant it becomes inconvenient to power.

American Football: no time outs.

Play it just like soccer. Ref’s calls are final, and the clock doesn’t stop unless their is an injury.

It would make the game much more fun to watch, cut the runtime by two thirds, and force teams to hire athletes who can maintain vigorous activity for half an hour without dying.

Just let the students edit the course assignments before completing them. Everyone gets an A and teaching has never been easier.

Why has no one thought of this before?

For every 100 sexual assaults reported to the police against girls and women, only 18 lead to a prosecution.

So imagine what that number looks like for all sexual assaults against women and girls.

No State government gives a tiny shit about women getting raped. It’s just a cudgel to punish poor men and maintain the illusion that law enforcement protects women in America.

The scary thing is if you could get 5 SCOTUS judges who buy “the constitution is just for white people”, then it becomes true.

Well, you’d just need 3. Thomas and Alito are already on board no doubt.

This is not accurate, Rolls Royce got the contract to replace the engines on the B52.
