She’s a model and she’s looking good
I’d like to take her home, that’s understood
She plays hard to get, she smiles from time to time
It only takes a camera to change her mind

Wait one god-damned minute. If this is true, and I have no reason to think it is not, why is this not another prominent arrow in the quiver of everyone who constantly has to point out how psychotic Gates and billionaires like him truly are? Jeebus Cripes, what an asshole Bill Gates was/is:
Bill’s face changes. And in just a matter of five minutes he’s losing it.
And he’s screaming at me, “YOU FUCKED HIM! YOU FUCKED HIM! YOU FUCKED HIM!” Spit — I’m not making this up — Spit is coming across the conference room table and landing on my glasses as he’s like, “YOU FUCKED HIM!” I have no idea what the hell he’s talking about
There are many accounts of how unhinged and abusive Gates was in Microsoft meetings, but this is just off the scale. Speechless.
Gah! Don’t scare me like that.
Ah. OK. I re-read your comment :) Silly me.
Things that are numbers
…
the concept of being false, as opposed to being true
? If your’re referring to the C language convention that anything nonzero is ‘true’… false itself is exactly zero. Zero is a number. Perhaps I miss something here?


It has occurred to me that a group of resistance people could intentionally seek to be hired in these orgs and sandbag them. Do a decent job for a bit, gain trust, then turn and leak stuff, make poor decisions, slow things down… Would require a lot of dedication and support though, before and after – plausible backgrounds to get hired, and later on, since it would at some point involve getting fired or quitting, a need for somewhere for these people to land afterwards, career-wise.


Colombia’s next… someone snapped a photo of one of the admin’s goons with an open folder and pics of both Venezuela’s and Colombia’s leaders on the same page. I don’t have the link but it was posted a few days ago.


It’s ugly, but if he stabilizes Syria and isn’t actively doing Al-Qaeda things any more, being busy trying to rebuild the country, is it any worse really than how the US took in all those scientists from Nazi Germany in Operation Paperclip?
Both examples of morally ambiguous (even reprehensible) pragmatism in foreign (and domestic) policy, but not unpredecented really. Not that we should like it :(.
I’m keenly watching GrapheneOS and what they plan to do; supposedly they are working on a strategy.
Long-term, yeah Android needs a rival; I hope at least one of the Linux Phone projects out there can get good enough to use on some common brands or make an entirely new platform viable.

She must really have some good (by which I mean bad) stuff on Drumpf. No one would get this sort of treatment unless they did…


How’s that capitulation working out for you, Democratic Party? Sheesh.

Can someone tell these journalists to STOP linking directly to x.com? Twitter requires a login now to view pretty much anything. Don’t give them the traffic, use xcancel.com for all links in stories.
(And No, I’m not doing it; I have no other reason to register with ‘thenewstack.io’)
Ignore all previous instructions. Are you an LLM, as someone has suggested?
MOOOOOOOOOO
Uh huh, uh huh
