Gemini has apparently been using this random Reddit user's actual phone number as a sample phone number quite a bit. I love when my predictive text algorithm doesnt know what 555 numbers are for. @edzitron.com
@anya.pet AC Transit also has the weird bumpy plastic seats that East Chicago Transit has

Infowars/Onion combo logo in rainbow saying “I support the onion’s hostile media takeover.”
It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.
‘Simply stop giving millionaires water for literally free’ is one of the most insane sounding but actually serious policy solutions out there
Hey seriously, literally in the bills it says they'll also use identifying information, such as your age data for "other purposes". That means your data goes into a government surveillance database. This would be for ANY *OS*, which is the thing your fucking PC runs off of.
Call your reps NOW.
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
Palantir put out the most cartoonishly evil statement possible. They’re so arrogant and self-confident they don’t seem to believe their fascistic plans can be opposed.
We must get rid of Palantir altogether.

for an idea of how big a deal this is, my mom was in great shape when she got diagnosed and she lasted less than sixty days. six years is insane.
WTF
The Illinois senate just unanimously passed a bill about high speed e-bikes & slipped in a provision that allows state vehicles to obstruct bike lanes w/o impunity.
Gov agencies are top bike lane obstructors as it is. This encourages it. It also sets a bad example for the rest of the community

i think folks might be unfamiliar with "the pharisees", so let's make it clear: he's saying the jews run the press, and that they are conspiring to undermine the military. it's not just antisemitism, it's indistinguishable from nazism.
We're watching the open web as it existed die in real time.
the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.
Jet A prices. stable for the past two years until February, at which point they immediately double
hey guys I found a new chart for us all (via IATA)
They drove into the Belt Railway of Chicago's Clearing Yard as well.
Don’t anthropomorphize these things. They can’t be sorry and the people operating them definitely aren’t.
This is honestly a fucking assault on democracy.
Politico headline: "Missouri town fires half its city council over data center deal" Residents of a St. Louis suburb turned out in droves to unseat four incumbents just days after the council approved a development agreement for a $6 billion data center.
Energy policy think tanks keep putting out proposals like "give Mark Zuckerberg sole control over our utility rates by making him America's next grid czar" and the people in Everytown, America are like "go ahead and fuckin try"
You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar
Montreal Tramways Co. #2. An open top tour streetcar with elevated theater seating, and ornamental gold painted railings on the side of the car. The car is preserved at the Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, Maine, where it has been restored and operates for special occasions. In this photo, the car is parked outside one of the museum's carbarns, and is flying a Canadian flag from a flag holder on the rear of the car.
Many places had open top streetcars, usually as tourist attractions. One from Montreal is preserved at the Seashore Trolley Museum. This one even has theater seating so everyone can see out the front.
Friends and I are riding the River Valley Metro commuter bus that runs from Midway to Kankakee. Bus type? Truck minibus. Windows? Dotted. Suspension? Nonexistent. Guy in front of us? Music on speaker and spilled his beer in the first 10 minutes.
The sun is going down, and you are getting cold.
reskeet this if you’re a trans woman who has never been on 4chan or kiwifarms. Just trying to see something
I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.
I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee
