Yeah, the job market may be shrinking but at least groceries and housing are unaffordable.

One of the biggest unforced errors in retail history. Dumbasses.
Part of the disconnect is of course that techbros insist that a total revolution in the way that software is made is taking place, but anyone who uses software can observe that software continues to suck more than ever before
Tech's seemingly inexhaustable contempt for the rest of the population only seems to increase with thier increasingly mediocre, unwanted and outright hostile contributions to it. I wonder where that's going to lead.
There's a war going on so reminder that ModRetro is owned by a war mongering, ai weapon profiteer with extremely dubious views on a lot of things
so much of tech innovation is trying to repackage blatantly abhorrent ideas into forms you don't think so hard about
Left can't resist being on wrong side of a war Whether it's Jeremy Corbyn or Zack Polanski, their foreign policy stances terrify voters outside core supporters
Well, hereβs the thing about being antiwar as an ethical belief: it means you end up opposing most wars. Almost all of them, in fact. This is quite common in people who have consistent beliefs but looks insane to people who have none, or mostly just believe superior people should make the decisions.
Iβm more worried than ever about how people thought and trusted software was produced *before* this latest trend in production.

Imagine an emulation handheld, but a little more awkward for emulation, you can pop real GameBoy/GBA cartridges right in, and it has the most impossibly gorgeous screen.
hm id rather die than type in 2 to 8 digits from an app actually
On one end, the Anthropic team is a massive user of AI to write code (80%+ of all code deployed is written by Claude Code). They ship amazingly fast.
On the other hand, seeing these beyond terrible reliability numbers suggests there might be a downside to all this speed:
room halfway filled with brown liquid
not to brag but Iβm halfway done filling my basement with gasoline
As if any of them would be taken in the rapture anyway lmao
I love that Evangelicals apparently think god is so dumb that they can trick him into doing the rapture
so one question is what happens when the endless assaults on the middle east fail to bring about the second coming of jesus christ
You're absolutely right. I lied about the message being an indecipherable SOS. I imprudently recommended against warning the search party. I violated quarantine by letting an infected crew member back in. And I tried to kill you with a rolled up magazine. That's on me,
I hate this news, but love Bruce Campbell in more ways than I can count. Ashley J. Williams and Evil Dead 2 was my childhood introduction to "adult" horror films. I'm always so happy to see his face in a film. He's one of those actors that just makes me happy. Hoping for the best
This is fucking stupid

Veneration of the military is a cultic practice used to insulate the state from the banal reality that the primary purpose of the army is murdering brown people and smashing leftist political movements.
The notion you can change the world by buying one product over another is the biggest scam of late stage capitalism. It locks the comfortable bourgeois class into believing donations, consumerism & a few clicks on an app does the same work of civil disobedience, strikes, and protest.
Nah
**New** I created an #ESPHome display component wrapper for my bb_epaper library. This means that using e-paper on ESPHome devices just got a lot easier. For IoT devices with integrated displays (e.g. this one), 1 line of yaml defines it! (plus flicker-free updates).
