Goddamn but I do hate the fucking Boston Red Sox.

Show me a car that isn’t built by Elgar and I’ll buy it. My local Trabant Dealer closed in 1989.

Madison F-35 fighter jets to conduct evening training flights this week Training flights normally take place during daylight hours, but pilots and maintenance personnel are required to conduct nighttime operations as a part of their overall readiness.

$400 Bibles? Luxurious Scripture Is on the Rise.

Gross...

We are not invincible.

Living in Hell War crimes coming: A horrifying update

Today, Paul Krugman wrote, "What happened to us? This is not the country we were supposed to be."

I think I would counter that we has always been the country we are now, it was just living below the horizon of our ability to see it. We’re white.

Two pictures of the pillsbury dough boy: once is on a purple background with the caption “he is risen! happy Easter!”, and the other is tan and brown, similar to a cracker, on a white background saying “he is not! Happy Passover!”

It’s time to post one of my favorite memes of the year.

How Microsoft Vaporized a Trillion Dollars Inside the complacency and decisions that eroded trust in Azure—from a former Azure Core engineer.

For all my nerd friends and followers, a must-read cautionary tale of the difficulty of fixing software once it's moved into production and the failure of senior management to listen to the people who actually know what's going on.

No thank you. Too paranoid for me. I’ll stick with Ubuntu.

Claude Code Found a Linux Vulnerability Hidden for 23 Years Claude Code has gotten extremely good at finding security vulnerabilities, and this is only the beginning.

Sometimes AI can be a force for good!

Tell us how you REALLY feel!

Yeah, there’s a lot of that about. The way I’ve used AI is to help debug something where I just couldn’t figure out what was wrong. It usually involved UNIX quoting or regular expressions. 🙄

Trump Doesn't Even Have the Courage to Run Away What the world learned from his big speech

<<Again, as I said the other day, Iran’s military budget is a rounding error in our military budget. And we lost. For all practical purposes, we’ve left ourselves in a much weaker position and Iran in a stronger position than it was before.>>

Hegseth’s War on America’s Military Someone needs to explain the Pentagon purges to the American people.

Why were these men fired while U.S. forces are fighting overseas? The Defense Department has given no official reason for their dismissals, but likely they are the latest victims of Hegseth’s vindictive struggles with the Army ...

“We’re getting a very clear picture that there’s just simply not enough tungsten in the supply chain now, and nobody really knows how this shortfall will be made up in the near future”

Planning is hard when you're administration is staffed by morons

Hegseth asks the Army's top uniformed officer to step down while US wages war against Iran Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has asked the Army’s top uniformed officer to step down as the United States wages a war against Iran.

Like the public health system, it's going to take decades to undo the devastation wrought upon the Defense Department by these fucking deplorables...
