I will not run, climb, or jump. I will not sit, kneel, or lie down.

Ah, dinger. Thanks for the heads-up, I hadn't gotten a chance to look that deeply into it yet.

One of every thousand American residents has been taken into custody by ICE in the last year.
A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.

That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

Gorsh!
Sora 2 apparently cost something like $5 billion to run every year and so far made OpenAI around $1.4 million.

This obviously doesn't meet every community's needs, but I'm willing to wager that A Lot (most?) Discord servers are already private/invite-only, and it seems a great fit there.

I heard a lot about Stoat yesterday, I think my small friend group is probably just going to self-host an instance of that. Looking at their docs, it seems like they made it pretty straightforward to run their server in Docker.

what's even the point of getting the degree if you're not going to engage with the work!?

Honestly this latest thing has pushed my friend group to start looking into setting up a private @stoat.chat instance. It looks pretty straightforward to run if you're a Computer Toucher.

My rent went up by 10-15% every year until they put in a half-dozen new apartment buildings on the (newly upzoned) block; the new luxury units helped keep the existing stock cheap.

I think it is important to provide protection from unexpected fees, but I'd also like to say that lowering barriers to new housing is an excellent way to keep rent affordable.

gatorade is owned by pepsico but it's the coca cola of the sports drink market. powerade in turn is owned by coca cola, but it's unquestionably the pepsi of sports drinks. this should be plainly obvious to all

yes, correct

All of the wealthy neighborhoods around here have narrow streets and a roundabout at every intersection, which physically prevents you from usefully speeding. A good design!

All of the apartment buildings are built on major arterials where people do 40. 😑

My doctor made me quit drinking caffeine a few years ago and:

A) It sucks, withdrawls last for months and are physically uncomfortable.

B) I legitimately feel better almost all the time; caffeine just makes you tired when you don't have it & feel "normal" when you do.

lmao sorry that you're getting a thousand people in the replies telling you that you developed your completely free app incorrectly, and they won't be gracing your (again, completely free) app with their presence.
