The tusks know where they are because they know where they are not

It’s not an emergency if it can wait 15 minutes. So the line just doesn’t work for its intended purpose. That’s extraordinary failure.

What if I want to take the cab but I’m not a cutie?

You didn’t have to write this.

Bad things also happen outside the concentration camp. Everyone is oppressed in a fascist state. Besides, there were other ways than skin color and nose size to end up in a concentration camp under the Nazis. Having the wrong books was enough. If you truly think the US is going all the way then the rational thing to do is to get out before you no longer can.

Oh, everyone does this and it’s not new. The US has done this an absolute ton, and is still doing it in, for example, Iran. Arguably the US exists because France did this to the British empire, although France was unusually direct in its support of the rebels. Recently, Pakistan did this with Afghanistan. It’s incredibly common.

In such a scenario you have bigger issues to worry about. Your first priority should then be to emigrate far far away, ideally across some sort of ocean. If this seems like an overreaction to you, then what you’re experiencing may not be comparable to the actual Nazi party.

Some of it is legit self-sustaining grassroots stuff. Some is funded by Russia (curiously I don’t think China does this stuff a lot). Some in the first category started as stuff in the second category.

This is standard geopolitics. You find dissatisfied people in the population of countries you don’t like, and then you support those people in various ways in order to destabilize your competitors.

Unless your parents are abusive and don’t love you - don’t actually cut contact. That’s probably a bad life decision.

Would love to block .ml. The stuff coming out of there is just too dumb.

I’d be surprised if anyone has. You need to actually use a language to learn it properly. But an app is a good start and supplement.

The principal is not necessarily any smarter than the teachers. Often it’s the opposite.

Kinda agree, but the consoles already are alternatives to Windows. Don’t really see what’s super special about the Steam Deck, tbh.

Surprised Microsoft hasn’t made some sort of DRM to prevent Xbox studio games from being played on Proton, though.

Well, Intel tried with OneApi. As for AMD they go 5 minutes between every time they shoot themselves in the foot. It’s unbelievable to watch.

If it wasn’t Trump I’d agree. However, getting Palantir involved sounds less like unifying databases than creating a social credit score-kind of system, complete with political opinions and other kinds of sensitive data

The USA.

The Witness (2016) is a really good puzzler, as is The Talos Principle (2014) (it’s gotten a UE5 remaster now).

Try using Mastodon and Bluesky at the same time. Bluesky is a twitter clone and perfect replacement. Mastodon is an excellent micro-blogging platform, but has none of the features people actually liked about twitter. People love recommendation algorithms and quote tweet dunking. That’s the core of what it’s all about. Mastodon is glorified RSS, which is great if you miss those days.

This is so great and so bad at the same time. We’re gonna have to go back to using tar and shit for things we actually want to last. That’s not going to be cheap…
