Always a good idea to tenderise your oligarchs before consumption.

Yeah, he has a bunch of tells like that. “Like you wouldn’t believe” means it’s definitely a lie, “Nobody knew X” means “I didn’t know this thing everyone else knows until they explained it to me”.

I am able to sync my stuff from Floorp to Mull and back without much trouble.

We really need better names for stuff

Fuller went on to treat patients with syphilis at a veterans hospital in Tuskegee, Alabama,

Oof, not the best career move, that one.

Something Musk cut again. I’m amazed how despite doing stuff like that Republicans keep getting elected. Seems like an easy attack ad to cut.

Keep voting for the democrats and definitely don’t ask them to do more than give speeches on MSNBC and write strongly worded letters. It’s only a matter of time before the West Wing moment comes where the Republican comes to his senses and does the right thing.

Eh, I would reserve the hate for cybertrucks specifically. A ton of people bought a model 3 or whatever before he went full Nazi.

They were designed to be only used for the administration of social security. Since they were sending monthly checks, they needed a way to know that the person going to the office and saying their address changed was who they said they were. This was at a time before driver’s licences were common and they didn’t have any other type of ID, and there were just a lot fewer people.

Later on the SSN started to be used by banks and other entities even though it was never meant for that, and the risks associated with the relatively insecure design just compounded, because instead of just fraudulently claiming someone else’s social security checks (which, unless the target died, would probably be figured out within a month), it opened up all sorts of extra avenues for fraud.

The judge should appoint a private prosecutor, which is apparently legal in this banana republic.

If it doesn’t get struck down, Adams can still be convicted. If it does, it sets a great precedent that the way the Donziger case was handled was illegal (which it should be).

If the maintainer has an email address, you can email them. But realistically, just create an account, with a throwaway email if you must.

Pretty sure that was already something they announced that they’d do.

The only ‘transparency’ he’s shown is screenshots of basic spreadsheets that don’t actually clarify anything. His minions are just sending him spreadsheets extracted from systems they don’t understand, and he’s just making decisions based on whether the title of the program sounds woke or not.

It’s going to be fun when he fucks with some Wall Street Equity fund’s money.

Yep, the actual competence was basically in the army (inherited from a long military tradition), so it’s important that those generals don’t cave.

His first venture was a business directory on the internet (ie. The yellow pages, but online). No idea if he or this brother actually wrote any code for it, or if they hired someone. Wouldn’t surprise me if he didn’t do any actual work for that project either.

IIRC they kicked him out of PayPal because he wanted to run everything on windows instead of the Unix/Linux servers they were running on. And the reason for it was because he couldn’t figure out Linux.

They already stopped providing passports to trans people, even if they’re willing to use their old name and gender. And I’m sure that policy will end up hurting women that changed their name after marriage as well, it anyone that changed their name for whatever reason.

He knows exactly what happened in Gaza, even to the point where he accidentally revealed the real casualty estimates instead of the ridiculously low ~40000 everyone’s been stuck on ever since Israel destroyed all the hospitals and thus anyone keeping track of official deaths.

He doesn’t care, he only wants the ‘problem’ to go away.

Isn’t that basically a death threat?

Yeah, I didn’t want to shit on you guys. Most of you are all right.

So I guess it’s just only us Millennials that know how to convert a PDF properly, and we’re just sandwiched in between boomers and gen Z finding the most ridiculous ways to try to accomplish that task.
