Great Depression (nightcore remix)

Thank god the mechanic moves at a snail's pace, at any kind of normal speed it would be like, a pretty difficult Ultimate trio

this Dream doesnt seem very Idyllic to me ngl

If you can't trust lying snakeoil salesmen who can you trust

can't believe a company whose business model is "mislead consumers about the security we provide in a way that falls just barely short of illegal so they will give us money" would make misleading statements, im shocked

I'm really glad that 404 Media correctly called out the "Proton did not provide any information to the FBI" line as disingenuous. It's not a good sign when a provider is more interested in playing semantic games than realistically explaining their threat model.

ew why is maximum boot on my feed, how have I not already blocked him on here

If we're gonna live in a country with no rule of law can't we at least abuse imminent domain to bulldoze French Laundry

VOLITION - No. Not a disaster. Weave this into the story of you. Walk out of its *ruins*. Save those who still can be saved -- *I'm* on your side.

A digitally drawn homage to the George Herriman comic strip Krazy Kat. Starting left of frame we see yellow Ignatz Mouse having just thrown a brick which is sailing across the center of the frame and in another instant will bash the oblivious Krazy Kat (a blue bipedal cartoon cat wearing a red scarf) in the back of the head as he walks innocently to the right. Everything is drawn in rough black pen and colored in pale washes. A speech bubble from Ignatz reads ‘Maybe it will…’, the word ’Happen’ appears in the whooshing trail of the sailing brick, and a final speech bubble belonging to the Kat reads ‘…Today’.

I mean it's the Post so my default is to assume it's not true, but if it is, good tbph, I'd rather Russian resources be going toward shooting at American troops doing an illegal imperialist war than toward carrying out Russia's own illegal imperialist war

You can hit each other with them, which is super avoidable in the variant since they're so small but 100% feels like it'll get used in the criterion version

i'm not really trying to be cute about this

a lot of you have fried your brains on the news and have been engaging in some incredibly offputting, antisocial shit and you should feel bad

while i've been on light posting the last few days, checking in, this place is absolutely awful to look at and many of you seem to have completely lost your minds

This sounds like a copilot-ism tbh, there's a lot I don't love about Gemini's coding but ime it's at least good about leaving surrounding stuff alone and only editing the things it actually needs to touch

Golden Age Superman stands head to thigh alone in a panel black at the top and red on the bottom where Superman stands pointing at the reader as he says, "Be wary of unscrupulous operators of gambling games--they are always on the look out for unsuspecting victims."

It certainly *smells* fake imo

(it's a .bsky.social, whereas real NYT accounts are normally .nytimes.com, e.g. @nytopinion.nytimes.com )

Is this a) an incredibly weird fake account someone has put a fair bit of long term effort into, or b) a technical oopsie by somebody at the Times?

I wish I did :/ email is just so deeply broken from a privacy perspective

no

Pelosi briefly reassuming the one job she was actually good at: vicious partisan who will force reps to toe the party line no matter what because she doesn't actually believe in anything in particular herself but she's fully committed to the party's exercises of power

"I told you so" flashing in gigantic neon letters on my profile

feeling unbelievably smug about my years of anti protonmail posting rn

Doesn't the Discord overlay also inject itself into the game process (at least for some games)? Which I guess makes sense from a technical perspective but I still hate

Nohio and Indiann't

My custom Gemini prompt at work is literally just "please speak to me like a friendly peer instead of a superior you're afraid of" because oh my god the way it speaks is *so* uncomfortable

You can really tell it's being built to make the incompetents running Google feel like they're not incompetent

god the anthropic people are going to fully lose their minds over this stuff

Man it's so bleak how far right Indiana has swung. Obama won it in 2008! And somehow today it's still even less likely that Democrats win there than Texas

This is why it's perfect and can never be beaten
