Usually in the circumstances the EC differed from the PV it was by 1 to 2 votes, and the overall election was close in the PV. I detest the EC, but if the PV is 60% or more, I’d say the EC would match (otherwise, the US citizenry would likely rebel).
Is this the beginning of the Butlerian Jihad?
Oh they’re still thinking about them.
Wow, imagine the illustrator reading the request. “We need an ilkustration of a child going into a blade? Like, Fargo detail or Daffy Duck dismemberment?”
Kinda makes you wonder what the world would be like without all the warning signs like hot liquid and cruise control does not drive car huh? I mean yeah, we probably need signs marking minefields, chemical transports, etc. But common sense shit like turn electric off before installation, do not place flammable object in a fire, etc? Darwin weeps.
Social media isn’t a visit to a library, or a sit down with a newspaper or even a conference hall. It’s akin to a brief discussion with a passerby. Some people may stop for the guy on the soapbox in the town square, but I’m sorry if I didn’t come to the fediverse that day expecting a lecture. Your feelings are valid, and I can respect them, but knowing your audience is important.
Isn’t there a law in places that cameras have to have recording lights? I know my Wyze has lights. Why does this not apply to Meta glasses?
I just got comfortable with Bazzite, too. Cept the wrird OOM that popped up with Firefox, still attempting to fix that one…
I read the first paragraph… then I saw the rest and my attention wandered down…
Beat me to it.
I miss my Palm and Ipaq…
This was my reaction as well… felt really gross to find my head nodding up and down as I read… then again, demensia does provide momentary lucidity from time to time.
He just needs to make it past this weekend of all weekends… then whatever.
Wait, what? Brb.
Edit: Can’t find much about it to drive me away or entice me to watch. That AI trailer is absolute festering garbage. Didn’t even get the famous line right. Cast is promising though. Question is, will it be Highlander 1 script material or 2?
That poor kid…
But my Ariel on Vaporean porn is a dream yet to become a reality… (I’m getting old, that is the Pokemon with the weird fetish, right?)
Just brought out my old dvds and put them on hard drive. They were burned 18 years ago and used organic dyes. I recovered avout 50% of them. Old me should have spent more on nonorganic discs… but old me couldn’t afford them back then, so he gets a pass I guess. Plus new me can easily dl most of those discs in an hour or two now.
And when AI inevitably collapses, programmers should join unions and negotiate for a much higher wage, as they will be in even more need to fix all the shit that gets broken. Everyone knows it’s easier to replace or rebuild, but companies can’t do that, they’ll need their code, their databases, accounts, everything - fixed. That will cost them more than they ever thought they’d save. AI will one day do the things they want, but we’re looking at decades until it can reach that point.
Yeah, the good ones get bought out. (RIP Armstrong, Adelphia)
Mine is made from 14g steel. Someone took out my last 2. Even threw eggs and canned foods at it a few times. No clue who I pissed off. Changed out the box, posted on facebook we upgraded it and installed a hidden camera, and they stopped. Funny thing is the post is 3in pvc pipe painted to kinda look like iron (I had to span 4 feet cause the box has to set over an asphalt ditch).
