Of all the “this piece of music for a children’s television show has absolutely no business being this good” pieces of music, I think this one is probably the filthiest, just an insane groove

is it not weird that every day there’s a new video of anonymous masked men having the time of their lives beating/shooting/disappearing people and the dem response from the top down is “republicans want to double your health insurance premiums”

Good news everyone I found the worst ever advertisement for anything

Honestly you’re probably better off not knowing, it’s an incredibly bad ad slogan for laxatives

Hmm I’m not going to complain about Trump being disappointed, so I’m glad she won, and at this point any leader who wants to get anything from the US knows they have to use obsequiously flattery as a tool so who knows how much of this is just rhetoric, but I’m still giving it a bit of a “yeesh”

Tensions between Venezuela and America soared following the attack, but Machado insisted to The Sunday Times that Trump was right to bomb the boat.
"I totally support his strategy," Machado said. "And I've said on behalf of the Venezuelan people that we are very grateful.
I think it is the right thing to do. It's courageous. It's visionary."

Since Trump's reelection, Machado has been an outspoken supporter of the U.S. president, describing him as the "biggest opportunity we've ever had" for regime
change in Venezuela.

Can someone explain to me why this is any different from the “???” in the underpants gnomes’ scheme?

[screenshot of a paragraph of text]
At the outer limit of MET's time horizon is the 40- hour standard human workweek. An A.I. that could consistently complete a week of work at a time could probably find work as a full-time software engineer. Ms. Von Arx told me that, at first, the A.I. would perform like "an intern," making mistakes and requiring constant supervision. Quickly, she believes, it would improve, and might soon start augmenting its own capabilities. [highlighted text begins here] From here, it might undergo a discontinuous jump, leading to a sharp increase in intelligence. [highlighted text ends here] According to METR's trendline, the workweek threshold for a successful completion rate of half of the tasks will
be crossed sometime in late 2027 or early 2028.

the administration is laser-focused on making sure Americans don't get clean energy, so Saudi Arabia (Trump's paymaster) has someone to sell their oil to in 10 years when the rest of the world has moved on to solar+batteries

Costa Samaras @costasamaras.com · 1d

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

SCOOP: The Bureau of Land Management says the largest solar project in Nevada — the Esmeralda 7 mega-farm — has been canceled

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency
