That's probably because all of the guardrails. It will all be fixed once we get rid of them!

Audiophiles Fail to Hear Difference in Signal Passed Through Copper Cable, Banana, and Tray of Mud Try telling the difference yourself before going all Nelson Muntz, though.

There is so much pseudoscience and woo in the world of audio gear, this doesn't surprise me at all.

β€˜They pushed so many lies about recycling’: the fight to stop big oil pumping billions more into plastics Plastic production has doubled over the last 20 years – and will likely double again. For author Beth Gardiner, metal water bottles and canvas tote bags are not the solution. So what is?

Sudden reinterpretation of an old law is exactly how Poland got the current near total abortion ban. A well rehearsed strategy.

I had an uncanny feeling that I dodged a bullet when I refused to be interviewed for Palantir back in a day when nobody even heard of them. Boy, it wasn't a bullet, it was a fucking grenade.

John Carmack muses using a long fiber line as as an L2 cache for streaming AI data β€” programmer imagines fiber as alternative to DRAM Yes, it's delay-line memory, but with lasers!

Delay-line memory may have its unexpected comeback, but I have a better idea. If this is right, does it mean I could run my favorite LLM on a Commodore 64, if only I had a sufficiently long tape?

a black and white photo of a person 's face Alt: A stapler gets close to a photo of Ripley from "Alien" depicting her iconic terrified squint. The stapler ejects its staple tray in a similar way to the Alien releasing its inner jaws.

Everyone knows staplers are xenomorphs.

New data shows surge in trans kids’ suicides following healthcare rollbacks | Good Law Project A freedom of information request by Good Law Project has found that deaths by suicide of trans young people under 18 surged following the withdrawal of gender-affirming healthcare

The number of trans youth suicides in the UK quadrupled in 2021 following significant restrictions in access to care. The NHS tried to cover this up with a fake report that tried to hide the truth.

I don't know why it took a video posted by Trump for the media to realize he's racist when DHS is engaged in an ethnic cleansing campaign in Minneapolis.

The cartoon illustrates the problem of water use in the AI age: a farmer's child and his mother are pumping a little water from a well for their daily use. Two knights in armor, transporting a large, spherical water container on wheels, come by and say, "The King wishes to make more avatars of himself as a Ghibli character."
In the background, a castle sits enthroned on a hill. The cartoon illustrates the excessive water consumption required for AI model queries.

A rectangular, landscape-oriented photo of a wooden plank, painted white. In the very center, there's a big, round, slightly beveled bored hole that takes most of the image's height. A tabby cat peeks through the hole from the other side, her face to big to fit in and completely filling the view. Both eyes and her nose are clearly visible.

Purely from narrative design pov I think subjective FPP works well with '77 story, genre and world. You're a mind trapped in a decaying body with only means of leaving it being through technological consciousness processing (cyberspace; soulkiller; projection into external devices; braindaces)
