There's a lot of people who insisted when you blow up society you start from the baselines of the liberal world order. Those who knew better of course needed legions of suckers. You can't beat the ride.

I think really the story of the past ten years was people taking for granted 21st century liberalism was locked in and therefore you could just kinda be fashy for a laugh only to realize a moment too late Skinhead Steve wasn’t joking after all.

I assume he orders the robots to kill the poor, hungry, and diseased people and then has the AI write his texts to his children

Some people are concerned coding agents will stop me from learning code. I appreciate the concern, but I'm 39. I've been coding all my life. I know too much about code. Please release me from my prison of knowledge

Taking this away is worse than never having offered it in the first place (though I wonder how many Americans were aware of this new rule)

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

Trickle Down to Hell, bitch

This thread is incredible.

We finally found a way to make chatbots profitable. Our software will give mentally vulnerable people Computer Madness and then send them out to do robberies

Health insurance companies will spend unlimited amounts of money on everything except *checks notes* actually providing health care

Was a ton of fun to talk about the 0day market and Pall Mall at Summercon! Thanks for having me 💕

Word's getting around now!

Isn't it weird how we have examples of once believed relatively harmless viruses causing serious problems later in life and people still don't care about contracting a brand new novel one, multiple times?

A framed 14x11 motivational poster from IBM. It has a gray background. The header says “Quality” and there is an inset frame of Challenger on the launchpad. The bottom says “Defect Prevention… It Matters.” with a classic IBM logo in white.

I saw this poster on eBay. It was way too expensive. Then I realized which shuttle it was.

I did some digging and IBM HQ immediately recalled and destroyed them. Guess they missed one.

Whatever, it was my birthday a few days ago. $350 later and this is on the way to my apartment.

I mean, if everything is going in the shitter, there’s no reason to have anti-gay people have all the fun; start making religious objections to all sorts of stuff. The Ten Commandments getting put into class all over, for instance. That’s at least 40% religious orthodoxy.

We could avoid all these annoying debates about whether Fahrenheit or Celsius is better if we just abolished numbers like I've been arguing for for some indeterminate amount of years

Deeper cut: yo what up my fine feathered stork

But do you toil part time at the cold stone creamery

No one ever realizes this but I say "I pretty much just say whatever I want" pretty frequently and I'm actually quoting Christopher Walken in an SNL sketch where he claims that he ignores the script and just does whatever he feels like. 🤷‍♀️😄

I remember people giving Kamala Harris shit for using wired headphones, as Vice President of the United States

It is pathetic how easily network news executives let right wingers manipulate them. Terry Moran rightly calls Stephen Miller a hater driven by bile, and ABC News accepts the idea that this is “unhinged” behavior. Critiquing people abusing their power is the JOB of journalism.

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"

"I wish it need not happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

We must defend those targeted by TFG to resolve their fear.

American politics in a nutshell:

1. Democrats don’t use power because they’re afraid Republicans will do it too
2. Republicans do it anyway
3. Repeat
