  Is there a larger hole bucatini? I’m thinking I could use them for “environmental” straws.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨leading ai company⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh Elon. You lying sack of shit. Go sell your wares elsewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kirkland strong⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Eventually it’ll be the “Gulf of Kirkland” if they keep going like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Coinbase CEO explains why he fired engineers who didn’t try AI immediately⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s all drop everything. There’s something shiny and new hereabouts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top 50 news websites in the US in July: BBC drops five places as paywall introduced; Most report traffic declines.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Take your money from the ISP’s, not the people that use them. Fuck firewalls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨better paying job dealing with egos vs peace of mind job that pays poorly. I'd be taking a 20% financial hit. Worth it?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Peace of mind and less money every time. I say this as a lifetime corporate drone who always regretted quitting the section crew on the railroad to go to university.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YOU HAVE NO POWER HERE⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Shit just evolves. It doesn’t evolve correctly or incorrectly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨monthly challenge⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That doesn’t sound very healthy physically. But mentally? Yes!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your thoughts on this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they want to subtly train the masses to use less electricity because the new AI schemes need all of that extra power just to exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Senior Israeli official flees US following arrest over paedophilia⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would he flee? I thought the american law machine and current administration was cool with that kind of behaviour.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK There's a campaign to replace the distorted Mercator world map with the fairer Equal-Earth projection⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess, even globally, size matters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Butter made from carbon tastes like the real thing, gets backing from Bill Gates⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Of all things…butter! I’m sure it’ll be more expensive than real butter with the way things work nowadays.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I seek out the non-US perspective. Sometimes you need someone else to show you that the Emperor has no clothes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Larry Ellison predicts rise of the modern surveillance state where ‘citizens will be on their best behavior’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You guys who deny you watch television but constantly reference it are a dime a dozen. I think I heard that screed you wrote on an old “Fridays” skit. Try an original thought once in a while and show some authenticity. Ooohhh…I’m so mad and toddlerish right now! My “fuck off” still stands though. Bye sweetie.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Larry Ellison predicts rise of the modern surveillance state where ‘citizens will be on their best behavior’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of words based on current tv culture. I don’t watch the shows you are getting your information from. You may be right though. Human nature has been the same forever but there are pockets of collected, contrived, and derived behaviour, hither and yon, throughout history. Look at the USA today as a recent example that takes place in the television age (so you should be aware of that at least). I hope you enjoy your television episode you are excited about. Don’t make assumptions about me and what I watch. It makes you seem stupider than your fancy words imply. You seem like you are talking down to me in your answer so in the best historical context I can muster I would say…fuck off you arrogant piece of smugness. That took a turn, didn’t it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Larry Ellison predicts rise of the modern surveillance state where ‘citizens will be on their best behavior’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was relating “best behaviour” to the strict moral standards of the Victorian era. Is the surveillance related to breaking the law or catching you in an embarrassing situation? If it’s the second case then we’ll all surely be vexed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Larry Ellison predicts rise of the modern surveillance state where ‘citizens will be on their best behavior’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Like the Victorian era?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gen Z Is Cutting Back On Video Game Purchases⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The whole world is cutting back on everything everywhere as no one wants to be left short if this global economic craziness gets even more out of hand.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A "political blackmail" – the EU Parliament is pressing for new mandatory scanning of your private chats⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump is already doing that. Why do so many capitulate and follow Trump? He has their browser histories.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you went to an island, and formed a new country and forcibly inject everyone there with a drug that makes them happy, you new country could surpass Finland as the "Happiest country in the world"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We had to force it on the grumpy old men, but they are happily sedated now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Popup Ads in Your Pickup Truck? RAM Trucks Now Feature Scammy Ads on the Center Display⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  When did ads become the one commodity to rule them all. They are used more like a threat rather than information. You have to pay to see them or pay to make them go away. Doesn’t make sense. Have adverts replaced gold as the dollar standard? Weird. I guess they are good for money laundering due to the subjective nature of costs for “production”, “design” and “talent”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaving GitHub. Music server alternatives?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you want to go pre-connect, the library usually loans out music. Mostly CD’s though, so you’d need a player.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Airline Price-Gouging Could Become the New Normal⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Living locally will become the new normal. The business fucks need to give up flying to a meeting and use the worldwide communications infrastructure. The airlines will then be rethinking their greed, I mean “business strategy”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that Gerrymandering allows politicians to choose their own voters. In many countries, it's illegal. Gerrymandering is common in the United States⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Integrity is most common in other countries, but not in the united states.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Great Advertise⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What does that mean? I’m unfamiliar with AI. Does that mean a human instructed an AI to make that pic or was it cranked out by the AI itself, programmed to scour and use news items from the digital world?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨heaven⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Removed tattoos, just like lost limbs, will return when you enter Heaven.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is a real machine in Romania. Do 20 squats in front of it, and it prints you a free bus ticket.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What a great idea!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Geez louise, maybe it’s not intelligence after all. I think you’d need sentience to apply the word intelligence. Those wacko marketing people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Humanity will likely survive climate change, but the vast majority of humans won't.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Some humans will survive but, with the state of the world today, I think we’re already pretty close to losing our humanity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If everyone spontaneously became the same race the world would realize that the rich are the real problem⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Greed everywhere is the real problem. The rich are just successful in their greed.
