IANAL but I’m pretty sure it’s bad when the judge beseeches your lawyer to consult an attorney?
It might help
Ugh another human job lost to automation
I love the “I’m just learning the cello” fingering tape
"Oh you spoiled children want a painless war" no what we wanted was NO WAR. You fucks have no right to be conducting this war! It's illegal and unconstitutional and no one wanted it! Our government is fully broken! How dare you lecture us as though you have any legitimacy whatsoever!
i read this and it's interesting
but the horrifying overhang of this story is "mrna vaccines make it relatively easy to cure cancer actually, and the main obstacle is that the FDA just banned trials of them"
How does a hard drive overheat? That’s not a thing
Hey if you have an SSD and are lazy that can go pretty fast, nested for loop go brrrr
The working group move is 100% something people use in politics to kill off projects they don’t like. It’s particularly effective at the state and local level
I posted a 1912 photo of a man with smallpox and someone asked if it was AI. That says something about the moment we’re living in: because of vaccination, we’re now so far removed from this virus that real images of it look fake. #medicalhistory #vaccines #vaccineswork #skystorians
Bollywood remake of Smokey and the Bandit that's about running a truck full of Coors from Dubai to Qatar.
so we rescued a set of cinema film scanners
does anyone need a set of cinema film scanners?
if you have a need for a cinema film scanner (or can give it a good home!), and can arrange to have it transported from the Seattle area, message me on fedi or e-mail me at hello@alyx.sh
In a study in 2001 (Pickrell and Loftus, University of Washington), about one third of subjects shown a faked print advert for Disneyland featuring a child shaking hands with an actor dressed as Bugs Bunny (a Warner Bros. character) subsequently remembered meeting the character at the park.
just going to say again that one reason the senate gop has been veeery reluctant to move on the SAVE act is that I think those of them with brains (not Mike Lee or Tommy Tuberville) have figured out that it's more likely to hurt them (perhaps badly) than it is to help them. 1
it's a bad bill and Ds should not vote for it, but there's a lot of evidence that shrinking the pool of voters helps Democrats a good deal in the current environment.
open-ended composability is the norm in advanced professional tooling and in children’s toys, but it’s rare in between
the White House's memes lately look like a millennial nostalgia fest. Which probably gives a flavor for who the person making them is
His whole life, Trump has always had someone else around to bail him out of the messes he creates: his father, Allen Weisselberg, the "adults in the room" in his first term. Now all those protectors are gone and he is openly begging for someone to save him from his own folly.
There are a lot of assumptions re: Biden on Netanyahu.

This makes more sense, wapo article in replies
My most obnoxious foodie take is that 2 Michelin stars is probably the sweet spot
I never had a chance to go there but this article and the pictures are making me realize that this is specifically the restaurant “The Menu” was making fun of, right?
The term “drone” is infuriatingly non-specific (and I’ve been harping on this topic for over a decade now, like in the piece linked here).

DOGE was a huge win for the Effective Sociopathy movement
Well, what do you expect as a woke leftist hippie scholar working at (checks bio) the American Enterprise Institute and serving as (looks again) the Kissinger Chair at the Library of Congress?
this would be very very bad and also, if correct, was completely anticipatable and should have been anticipated by both US and IL
@actualnames.bsky.social There’s a restored grave at this place dated 1327 for a monk named Slumpo.
