New motto for my Plex^H^H^H^H Linux ISO server just dropped.
Tubi is such a crazy streaming service. It’s like if the Criterion Closet was in a gas station

I am surprised that someone who spent so much time keeping hackers out of the Gibson was libertarian for while
Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

Pretty sure Clifford Stoll said the same stuff in the 90s.
one of my _favorite_ critical technology books of the past decade is Morgan Ames's THE CHARISMA MACHINE on the OLPC project mitpress.mit.edu/978026253744...

The tech industry has failed so badly that many people in the general population now think all data centers are only for AI, and that the cloud is only for AI and crypto.
The public is going to end up hating "cloud computing" without even knowing it has existed long before AI and crypto.

It's another day. I have once again told Youtube I'm not interested in shorts or games, yet again. I told Google I'm not interested in Gemini, yet again.
Why in gods name would I want "AI" from a company that can't even remember what I told them a few days ago??!?!

Before everyone credits the idiot for the small car thing, just remember that Ford doesn't actually sell any normal cars in America for several years now. You can have a truck, SUV, or a sports car.
Hatchback? No.
Sedan? No.
Wagon? No.
Compact car? No.
It was never an issue of regulation.

In Ohio, there are six laws on the books that criminalize living with HIV. And they are actually being ENFORCED. Take a minute on #WorldAIDSDay to read about the experience of one Ohioan imprisoned under one of these laws.

This is like right wing folks announcing their looking into gay people because they listened to a "Straight No Chaser" album on the plane.
No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

To be fair, there are lots of reasons to reject Western polyamory, starting with the sheer cringe factor.
In a new doctrinal note, Pope Leo and the Vatican sharply reject polygamy and growing Western polyamory, praising monogamy as an exclusive union between one man and one woman.

Apparently the only study into whether or not soy based elastomers on wires are more prone to gnawing by mice was funded by the Soybean Checkoff people. I trust that about as far as I can throw it.

WaPo editorial board launches a disgusting car-brained attack on Seattle's new mayor Katie Wilson.

Just saw someone use "a broken clock is right twice a day" to justify listening to someone that is full of bad takes.
When did idioms become the opposite of what they mean?
Like idiots talking about how there's just a few bad apples in the law enforcement, but the rest are fine. 🤦🏼♂️
