Guys, we did it. We invented the Commodore 64
Also neat at CES: HP’s battery-powered PC built into a keyboard. Sort of a screenless laptop.

Tiresome to keep repeating it a full decade into Democrats giving Nazis power to commit Nazi atrocities but:
The government must be shut down permanently until this Nazi criminal is gone, and Democrats who refuse to go along with this should be afraid to leave their homes.

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

Having lived through all of these myself, I think what's different about the self-harm/lies/CSAM/job-loss machine is that it has inflated, and stands to inflate even more, an awful lot of investment portfolios.

As Trump Expands Imperial Aggression in Venezuela, Corporate Media Falls in Line
What we are witnessing is fascism unbound, armed with military force and insulated with media complicity.

I still have to use Windows for some things and it seems to be just about every day now I'm seeing complaints about it sucking in new ways. So here's a little list of tools I use to make Windows not suck by debloating virtually everything out of it that makes it bad and making it more usable. 🧵

The easiest way to avoid Poster's Madness is to accept that you aren't 'fighting a narrative' or 'pushing back', 99% of e-fights begin with one party having that idea in their head. Every time you think that about someone just mute or block them and move on with your life

Bunch of the reddest and maddest dudes in the history of online seeing the vast and subtle American empire and screaming THAT'S PUSSY SHIT before tearing it all to pieces so they can be A Real Man

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

The farther we get into 2026, the more I'm endorsing folks to learn the mod tools on the social medias they use and apply them aggressively. Yes, it's stupid to have to lock replies to a post saying "I don't really like pancakes" to followers only and turn off quote posts, but...people are wild.

People harassed Lia Smith's parents after she completed suicide. The level of hate and dehumanization of trans people is obscene.
![A screenshot of white text on a black background with a sentence highlighted in blue.

[Highlighted section] When she died, he had to endure merciless online comments, including one on his Facebook page saying that her death was no loss.

Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.
If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.
The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

All the potential of ancient Rome’s insane emperors with none of ancient Rome’s ambitious Praetorians with ultimate access, damn shame
WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.
