As the western world works more and more towards the time when most people will be renters, the enmity against landlords will just continue to grow.

Read some Insta comments and you already see people holding up landlords as an example of greed and inequity just as much as they do CEOs and the ultra-rich.

The new feudalism is almost here. Just outside the door... That you can no longer afford to own.

Holy shit. The cynic in me is stunned right now.

Also: Jury. Not a judge, not a conspiracy of officials, a jury.

When Americans look at other countries who have things like paid parental leave, guaranteed vacation time, right to disconnect laws, we're shocked because we just can't imagine a country centered around the good of the people instead of the good of our employers. It's really that simple.

In movies, no one says goodbye on the phone, and everyone adjusts their rearview mirror when they get in a car.

Libertarians hosted Democrat-turned-Republican Trump at their convention.

So... they're also Republicans now, then?

Oh, and also RFK Jr but who cares.

Imagine if regular people got the same treatment on the same scale as CEOs.

"You've repeatedly left the store open at night and we've lost a lot of money as a result, Chad. I'm afraid we're going to have to let you go. Here's your $500,000 exit package."

One day we're going to look back at all these videos and posts with their shitty GAI Featured Images the same way we look back on this:

Many of the computer graphics from Max Headroom season 1 were created by Rod Lord, the same guy who also did the wonderful faux computer graphics in Hitchhiker's Guide (1981)

Working on a new Setec Astronomy device after my previous build got resin leaked on it. Going to go all out with a hinge and the internals, I also want to keep as much of the tape mechanism in places as I can so it looks more stock.

Also, if you haven't seen Sneakers then for the love of all that's good please do. It's one of, if not the, best hacker movies ever made. With the exception of this device, it's so much more grounded in reality than other films. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/sneakers

What event caused more human casualties than World War I?

The European colonization of the Americas. Over a span of 100 years, Europeans colonists wiped out over 56 million indigenous people.

The ecological impact of this genocide was so great that the amount of fallow farmland left behind caused an atmospheric decrease in CO2.

Going to the MIT Flea tomorrow with my Paul. Anybody need anything? Toroidals? Variacs? BNC? YC-8? Yet another NS Adversary console (I forgot I had one and bought another last time)? Inevitably a couple of Mac Plus or Apple IIs?

I love asking LLM this question. They make shit up most of the time.
EDIT: To clarify, these are LLM run locally, not the big online proprietary model services.

You know you're on the wrong side when Iran is more concerned by genocide than your own government is.

So much AI talk today at work. I'm feeling tensor and tensor about the state of things.

This algebra joke brought you by the letters F and UCKED

I kinda want to let people who looked at the Sun today without proper protection thinking it was in totality when they were not in the zone of totality that they were wrong... but it doesn't matter because they can't read now.

There is a Macintosh Color Display M1212 (condition unknown) in the basement e-waster bin of Jefferson Lab (Harvard). I had to restrain myself. I don't have room nor need nor a car.
Maybe you do and have campus access. If so, please rescue it.

A fake AI today told me that "Floston Paradise is another name for the Bird of Paradise plant" and I got all excited that "Aha! That's where Fhloston Paradise (5th Element) came from!"

Except the fake AI lied to me. It made it up.
