She probably believes that it bought her a dictatorship over Venezuela.

"this is a distraction" messaging/posting is getting so tiresome. If one man can take us to war do we really have a democratic country?

This isn't a "distraction" this is the whole thing.

I've been pretty hooked on Vintage Story

i agree. it's a rude technology and it deserves a rude response

*lattoral.....

Isn't that just a shitty render of a latoral or it's successor the constellation class ship?

That looks amazing!

Men of a smiling white guy in a wall street suit smiling at his phone and the post says BlackRock after successfully outbidding a single mother of 4 in the housing market

BlackRock is, in truth, an Israel company. Just a coincidence, nothing to worry about. Jason Bassler @JasonBassler1 • 3h As if it wasn't bad enough BlackRock was buying up single-family homes, commercial real estate, energy and trillions in assets, now they're trying to buy Aligned Data Centers-builders of Al infrastructure.

I worked for one of the largest home builders, and they were selling their homes in chunks to shell companies while steadily increasing the prices and faking scarcity.

Billionaires are the reason we can’t afford a home. Not immigrants. Anyone buying this blatantly stupid hate-mongering can smd

The paradox of our times: everybody in software talks about how “AI” ramps up productivity by an order of magnitude

Meanwhile the software I follow, the platforms I keep track of, and the releases I follow keep the same pace as before except buggier, less usable, and more prone to catastrophe

A wrong Grok post making up a white guy who stopped the Australian mass shooting.

BBC 'Hero' who wrestled gun from Bondi shooter named as Ahmed al Ahmed Emily Atkinson Sun, December 14, 2025 at 1:06 p.m. CST 2 min read A "hero" bystander who was filmed wrestling a gun from one of the Bondi Beach attackers has been named as 43-year-old Ahmed al Ahmed. Video verified by the BBC showed Mr Ahmed run at the gunman and seize his weapon, before turning the gun round on him, forcing his retreat. Mr Ahmed, a fruit shop owner and father of two, remains in hospital, where he has undergone surgery for bullet wounds to his arm and hand, his family told 7News Australia.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

i stand by this statement every year

The media is entirely responsible for Donald Trump in our lives and Elon Musk as well. Real engineers and scientists knew he was a moron long ago. I was told repeatedly by my brother and his nerds at JPL that Elon was a dolt. But tech press don't know shit either and access is the name of the game.

so insanely fucking real for this

This is possibly a fairly hot take: soft light mode in my text editor is wonderful for software dev work.

I made the switch at work a few years ago and I like it so much more.

I haven't seen an unadorned light a single time in my life! Haha

Halos, halos everywhere.

American Birthright Citizenship is literally one of the most cut and dry parts of the constitution and any attack on it is just admitting you would get rid of the entire document if you could.

Woman Hailed as Hero for Smashing Man's Meta Smart Glasses on Subway A New York subway rider has accused a woman of breaking his Meta smart glasses. She was later hailed as a hero.

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

I just want some of these fucking people to face real consequences

They're all so bad too. Like how could anyone sign off on how shitty the visual quality is.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.

Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

To be clear the gerrymander currently on appeal.

A single digit margin should have the gop panicking about the midterms if that margin holds. To be frank it turns the Texas gerrymander upside down and could turn a bunch of soft red districts blue.

That's why the heresy couldn't win. No logistics.

I had never seen it before and I caught up on it with my wife for the last season.

Likely a controversial take but, nit picks aside, I enjoyed it throughout.

Also yes as a small town person myself Hawkins isn't top of my list haha

Please do media outlets (particularly the ones that are doing AI-critical stuff) a solid and link to their work, this isn't X, folks
