Warten, ob der US-Präsident mal wieder blufft, oder ob er einen Völkermord befiehlt oder eine Atombombe zündet oder einfach nur niedrigschwelligere Kriegsverbrechen begeht, samt Countdown, und man macht so normal weiter, es ist eine sehr seltsame, sehr surreale, sehr unerfreuliche Erfahrung.

At some point you've got to ask yourself why there isn't more resistance.

Imagine you have to listen to your grandpa with dementia talk about wet sand for 20 minutes, except that your grandpa has the nuclear football.

WaPo Editorial: US cut aid to Africa. The continent proved resilient.

The @washingtonpost.com describes the deaths of an estimated 750,000 people to date as "messy"

I will never think of Elon Musk as anything other than a mass murderer for the USAID cuts. I’ve long felt he’s one of the most villainous people alive today, the real-life equivalent of a comically annoying and cruel supervillain

I think it's fascinating how a certain kind of being "well" dressed as a man has been co-opted by the extreme right. Just say a guy in a suit and my first thought was "I hope he isn't one of these Andrew Tate guys".

right now the astronauts are calling houston because the computer on the spaceship is running two instances of microsoft outlook and they can't figure out why. nasa is about to remote into the computer

Really sad how is career was ruined.

“I dislike social commentary. Like… I really hate it. When I’m reading a book, I just want to be entertained, not preached at by the author. Plus, it ruins the wonder of the story if I know the author has a political or social axe to grind. I no longer speculate about all possible outcomes of the story because I know for a fact that the universe of that book will conspire to ensure that the author’s political agenda is validated. I hate that,” Weir said. “I put no politics or social commentary into my stories at all. Anyone who thinks they see something like that is reading it in on their own. I have no point to make, and I’m not trying to affect the reader’s opinion on anything. My sole job is to entertain, and I stick to that.” “For instance, as a lifelong Star Trek fan, it’s always bothered me that there is a presumed ‘responsibility’ within Star Trek shows to talk about social issues,” the writer added. “I just want to watch Romulans and the Federation shoot at each other.”

Ah, so Andy Weir is like... *dumb* dumb

No. Your childhood nostalgia does not matter more than the lives of real people.

And frankly I'm fucking tired of having to pretend that isnt a fucking insane thing to say in response to "please don't support the hate monger lady's soggy, reheated nachos"

I fear - and that's what I'm implying by "you guys" - "progressives" in the states in general and the democrat party establishment in particular are trying to make Gavin happen. Happy to be wrong tho.

This seems to be a reading comprehension issue, if you are talking to me.

Gavin Newsom clears L.A. homeless encampment as he tells cities to do more or risk losing funds

Maybe you guys can look a bit harder? This seems to be a rather slight improvement over the current president.

The increasing Lost-ification of reality: Lots of bullshit is happening, but everybody gave up on even asking why.

Bluesky announces $100M Series B after CEO transition | TechCrunch The additional funds have been used to scale Bluesky's team, while the company continues to develop Bluesky's app and the underlying ATProto that powers it.

So Bluesky raised 100 million USD in April last year from a bunch of crypto scammers and just "forgot" to tell people?

And they released it after getting a new CEO who will push for growth (and probably monetization)?

Sounds super healthy and normal.

Christian Ulmen und Tele 5 im Sexismus-Shitstorm wegen Gameshow Die neue Tele-5-Game-Show

Ich bin nicht überrascht. Ulmen habe ich seit 2013 ganz unten eingeordnet. Die Linie von damals bis heute ist eine gerade. www.waz.de/kultur/tv-st...

The ancient ritual of ordering from a small online shop, filling out the address form, sending it, form saying you already have an account, trying to log in, form saying there’s no account with those credentials, requesting a password reset. Days later you notice you’re out of coffee filters.

Adam Baldwin was literally *the* guy who named GamerGate and made it go viral. It was just some loser 4chan/incel YouTuber shit before then. They spammed him to get his attention because they knew he’s also a psycho loser and they wanted to make it go viral, and he did it. And it worked.

1) Omg they didn't even do code reviews on AI commits, ahahah
2) I'm sure this will be fine forever, just need an endless supply of SENIOR engineers, with a pipeline that is completely dried out. Healthy system!

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Derek.

Are you tired of winning? I'm so tired of winning.

has bombing a populace from the outside ever spurred that populace to rise up against their own government or is that just a thing we pretend happens even though it never does
