There was an AWS Outage today that took down a bunch of major websites/applications, including Signal.
How the hell was Pete Hegseth supposed to inform his Generals about the Secret War Plans against obesity and facial hair?

Bare Metal FTW. While it doesn't mean fewer outages, At least I can do something about them when they do happen.

I live in the city he grew up in. This would sell like gangbusters here, and they'd all be placed right out front of West High School.

If you have to pay your doctor for a prostate exam, is it technically prostate-tution?

When the midwestern pope slaps his knee and says "Welp, I probably should go" it means there is still another hour of mass left to go.

I say this as a grown man with grey in my beard (ok, with "a small amount of color still in my grey/white beard") -- They're not grown men, they're manchildren.

Hi, ham radio operator here.

Assuming you're in the USA, it's really easy to become the ham radio operator everyone wants to be friends with. HT radios are dirt cheap (under $50), but maybe get one quick before tariffs drive the prices up.

Technician's license is easy as hell to get too.

That said, I'm pretty sure this is the best possible way I could have found out Canada did the right thing in their election.

That guy gives the rest of us hams a bad name.

Also, I feel like there's a better than average chance that that "German Flag" is from around 1940.

The Pope's favorite couch was nearby, and he was unfortunately too frail to stop what happened next.

Hey, can someone convince Trump to invest in nuclear power instead of coal?
Maybe point out that Europe seems to be adverse to it, that might get him interested.

I Bet JD Vance would be upset if he got asked to autograph this picture. Especially by mail.
