[Cartoon strip pastiche of the Highway Code, with illustrations describing the text]

[Title panel]:

The Highway Code
Rule number 112b:
LED headlights

In recent years, many
new cars have been fitted with extra-bright LED headlights.

LED headlights increase safety by illuminating every detail of the road ahead

Including the face of the person driving a metal box towards you at a combined speed of 80mph

Whom you have just blinded with your LED headlights.

LED headlights must be fitted at eye-level on a great big murderous wall of car.

[Show a car crumpling into the front of a high-fronted SUV, bathed in light from the blinding headlamps]

They must be permanently on full beam, because you are insane.

And they should be bright enough to make other drivers think they are ascending into a blinding vortex of alien light

Like them old people in the classic Ron Howard film, Cocoon (1985). 
[Show illustration of the final scene where the older people on the boat are being yoinked up into the blindingly-illuminated cloaca of the big spaceship]

So remember: you must use LED headlights

To prevent everyone from not crashing into you. 
[Image shows this happening]

[Ends]

Aw man 😞 Rest in peace Mr Cheifet, host of Computer Chronicles: obits.goldsteinsfuneral.com/stewart-chei...

A cartoon drawing of three wolves surrounding an early home computer with a slot in the top for a slice of bread. Two using the computer hold a stack of cut bread and hold bread in their mouth, respectively, while looking at a bespectacled wolf stating "Mom says it's my turn on the VideoGrainβ„’." In the background, a television monitor displays a Pong-like videogame, with the text "03 Butter 01" at top, and a pat of butter and a figure holding a piece of toast as the sprites. Below, three drawings with inset text are present. The first shows a dog holding multiple loaves of bread with the text "We're in our no loaves refused arc." The second shows the same dog with his legs spread wide atop a giant loaf of bread, with the text "You'll 'spread' joy this holiday season with VideoGrain!" The third shows various animals gleefully eyeing both a giant potato and a television set displaying a live video image of potatoes au gratin. Text reads "See also: VideoGratinβ„’"

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.

Furries literally helped make Bluesky. It’s no exaggeration to say the Bluesky is only as successful as it is because furries migrated to it en masse. Telegram is the same way.

Without furries posting their porn here, Bluesky will go the way of Tumblr. This is a plain fact.

a computer the size of an upright piano. the design is very mid-century, with dark grey panels spaced at regular intervals along with a single pale blue and narrow horizontal panel. on the left is a control panel covered with buttons, indicator lights, switches, and knobs. two of the dark grey panels have been tilted forward out of the machine, revealing wire-wrapped backplanes full of woven yellow wire. a modern 4-channel digital oscilloscope rests in front on a small wooden table, and four wires emerge from it and disappear into one of the backplanes. behind the computer, a rank of fridge-sized tape units stand guard.

Discovering computer as an adult makes you go crazy. Discovering computer as a baby makes you go crazy. In all of human history, there will only ever be one generation to discover computer at the correct age: 13

The fact that this is in Epstein’s birthday book proves that all of his friends knew exactly what he was about. They’re all in on it. It 100% was an international child sex trafficking ring. A lot of people including the president need to go to prison.

A 1970 computer game called ICBM lives once more after spending decades trapped as source code on paper. Let that be another lesson in the importance of printouts!
