The only solution to crypto and all the ills it has created and enabled is to outright ban the possession, distribution, or transfer of it. Everything else is tacit approval all the crypto bullshit that has exploded since it went public, which includes all this ransomware crap. Surprise, that’s what’s fueling the…

Yup. The *PROCESS* of building a self-sustaining colony on Mars might start by 2050. But that’s about as realistic as it gets. There are *SO* many technological hurdles ahead, only some of which do we have a basic grasp of how to tackle, that to think we’ll have much more than a research outpost before the 22nd…

NRA and logic don’t really belong together. :P

It’s another interesting disparity in response regarding shooters who are taken in alive versus those killed on the scene.

Say it loud and never forget — the *ONLY* instance of objectively real and significant vote fraud was done by USPS president Louis DeJoy, on behalf and at the behest of former president Donald Trump, to make mail-in votes disappear — votes that both individuals knew would overwhelmingly be from and for democrats.

The thing is, at least from my understanding of the memo, he was referring to management doing the WFH thing. And he was accidentally correct, after a fashion. Management is generally useless, no matter where they work or how many hours they put in, and this is especially true of upper management. The whole ‘work from…

If ISPs have to run new lines to make use of this tech, they won’t. While it’s not nearly as expensive as ISPs like to pretend — as justification for federal subsidies and grants that they just pocket anyway — running fiber lines is still expensive. Particularly given the tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of miles…

Ahh, the smell of conservative hypocrisy in the morning....

But...deceiving the public is good for business. And that’s the only thing governments and economies ‘care’ about -- what’s ‘good’ for business.

...she voluntarily dated the repulsive and vile Bobby Kotick. That alone should be enough to tell you what kind of person she is — vile and repulsive.

Decisions, decisions...

Projection, I’m sure. For *HIM* being at work might be the only way he can focus on whatever it is he’s trying to do. And like all narcissist, he can only think like himself, about himself. He has no grasp of theory of mind concept, that other people aren’t exactly like him...just lazier, or dumber, etc.

And yet, they and their supporters will also howl, without the hesitation, about how ‘life is sacred’ and ‘abortions are murder.’

Just like Rock ’n’ Roll, D&D, ‘violent’ video games, and a whole host of other things that Conservatives have lost their shit over, it’s a convenient scapegoat for the toxic effects *THEIR* radical intolerance has on society.

Yes, but to what *end*? The ultimate goal of all of this is votes. And how will a debate change any of that? You’ve got three camps of people: the ones who absolutely won’t vote for Warnock, no matter what, the people who don’t care that Walker is a buffoon and will still vote for him, and everyone else who are…

I’ not sure I see the point in a debate. Walker is so far out of his element, he might as well be in another universe. Which is where the people who will vote for him are coming from, too. They will see and hear what they want to see and hear to reaffirm their preexisting bias against ‘the other’ who they’ve been…

Starship’s biggest problem is still getting approval for launches (and I’m not saying this is a bad thing, given the amount of mass being launched). Without that obstacle, I’d wager Musk would have already tried several launches of a full stack just to get data on how everything is coming together and find…

There are literal active war zones that have a lower mortality rate than parts of Conservative America. There are 3rd world countries with higher quality of living that parts of Conservative America.

“Okay. So advanced surveillance for threat detection didn’t do it. Good guys with guns didn’t do it. Social network monitoring didn’t do it. Oh well. We’ve done everything that can be. Looks like there’s just no solution.”

I miss that game often. All the characters were all wonderfully well done, diverse, and fun to play.
