I clearly remember the moment when I realized that other people (other than weird fundies) were taking it seriously. I’m not sure what I had thought was going on, my best guess is that I thought praying and going to church was just a weird thing we were all supposed to do out of politeness, like not putting our elbows on the table.

I was really hoping Discovery was going to make their decedents the cause of “The Burn”

There’s a local cart that does burrito bowls and half the positive reviews say something like “its like chipotle used to be”

Intel says 13th and 14th Gen mobile CPUs are crashing, but not due to the same bug as desktop chips

My local invidious instance is borked too. Not sure if its related and I don’t have time to investigate now.

Guess I need something else for background noise.

Edit: Took enough time to get a fresh image and its working again. Looks like I hadn’t updated since September.

Oh yes. I can see him as the hard-line / hard-logic XO of a Vulcan ship, akin to the “wej Duj” episode of LD.

My degree is in bio but if I’m remembering my coursework correctly, this is the legend that’s supposed to be on it.

For reference, the cost of living doubles every 25 to 30 years. $7.25 in 2024 is worth less than $5 in 2009 money. Less than the $5.15 that was the previous minimum wage.

I agree in sentiment, but the lame duck doesn’t start until November 6th. And we need to stop normalizing otherwise because the republicans have already weaponized it.

Peter Thiel is Elon Musk’s even more evil version, who’s been smart enough to mostly stay out of the press. I’ve been waving my arms about him since paypal.

George Kurtz has only crashed the world twice so he has one strike to go, I guess.

Growing up, our 20ish pound dog’s best friend was the neighbor’s dairy cow, so we started referring the cow as “moo dog.”

Thank you (and the comic artist) for turning up that long forgotten memory.

As someone who has been using RSS readers multiple times per day since 2009, I like the idea of being able to have threaded conversations with you lot on the stuff I’m reading all day.

How many self-sealing stem bolts do you need to make something like that?

Good to know. I thought they used aggregated google too.

DDG is a metasearch engine uses Google as a primary search sources, so this would indicate Google is not returning search data to its own APIs.

I feared AI would lead to this, so hopefully I’m jumping to conclusions. DDG, searxng, kagi, and most other alternative search engines rely on this API.

Never mind me. DDG doesn’t use google api after all.

Sounds like someone’s lost their faith… faith of the heart.

As long as I don’t need to know BASH parameter expansion. I can’t seem to get that right when I’m looking at the docs while I type.

The same poll puts her up by 2 additional points (42% to 38%) if RFK stays in the race (and makes it onto ballots).

When voters in the survey were shown a hypothetical ballot that included independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Harris led Trump 42% to 38%, an advantage outside the margin of error. Kennedy, favored by 8% of voters in the poll, has yet to qualify for the ballot in many states ahead of the Nov. 5 election.

But in the mean time EC2 hasn’t gotten a meaningful feature that’s not to accelerate training or inference since GP3, and people folks are backing away from serverless-first designs because cost-control and other features we’ve been screaming for for several years aren’t being addressed.

Edit to add: on the EC2 side I forgot we got Gravaton3 processors like 18 months ago. That was appreciated for sure.
