It might have some side effects of affecting more than just the military, but codified right to repair into law is never going to be a bad thing IMO.

This is really going to confuse MAGA. Pro-military but anti-corporate profits…

<grabs popcorn>…

As an American even I don’t want to leave because I’m very critical of this administration and god forbid they’d somehow connect me with my online persona. I just don’t want the pain they could cause. I don’t “think” they could deport me (50s very white male) but who the fuck knows at this point. Gravy seals that are cosplaying as some military elite in their tacticool gear are just snatching people off of the street.

I am what you would call a technology enthusiast, or what some people have dubbed as a gadget whore. I love little electronic devices that make my life easier. However, at no time in my life, will I ever need or desire a toothbrush that needs WiFi access or a subscription to some service. It really isn’t necessary or even useful. It’s like the old comic about the toilet that needs a phone app.

I totally did not realize how much real science was behind these things. I mean this design is so simple and obvious, it seems like something I would throw together because it just looks like it “should” work. And according to the research I just read they are very efficient and effective. Super cool!!!

I really need to make one of these.

Oh so that’s why it suddenly isn’t a thing….

This is like 4x10 hour days or 3x12 hour days to the extreme!!

I also work in education (university level) but the IT side of the house. I’d love to do this but honestly the slow summer is when we get most of our more extensive maintenance done since it’s slow.

Well he also thinks he is universally will liked as well so…

I have worked in fast food before and cleaned out the normal ones and I know how infrequently they get cleaned.

That would have at least been entertaining. Racist yes, but on brand for him.

I’m terrible with names. I fully admit it. But if I forget a name I just ask “what was his name again?” or something along those lines. A normal person would just keep saying “the prime minister”, or I don’t know, just make the effort to remember the names of major world leaders since it’s your fucking job. Not Mr. Japan OR Tim Apple.

Why some people think he’s intelligent is beyond me.

If someone calls themselves an “influencer“ I immediately want to punch them in the face.

Yeah most of the content I watch is still useful years later. Now it may not be super current since tech changes so fast, but still useful. If you have to stay in someone’s face all the time to stay memorable, you’re not memorable or relevant.

Oh for fucks sake…. How can one woman be some incredibly dense?

She probably heard somewhere that is why there were flash floods in Texas because some evil genius is punishing “real Americans”.

The ironic thing is the GOP constant bashing of clean, renewable energy and promoting fossil fuels and coal really is affecting the weather, just not in a very predictable or controlled way.

If it splits the republican party and removes the old white billionaires from the dems than I’m 100% for it.

This is awesome. Thanks!!! I might start up a container this weekend.

Yeah I have an old friend that retired from his state job and still makes money as some sort of guide.

But I broke that addiction a while ago. It was called Evercrack for a reason. Same thing with WoW. Although I would like to try it again for nostalgia. I didn’t know about the self hosted server option. I might check that out.

At this point, it’s on my bingo card.

First it was crypto. Now it’s AI. Who knows what the next thing that will keep me from getting a decent GPU.
