My adhd brain probably glossed over it. Where does it say you won’t need facebook to sign in anymore.

As stupid and unnecessary-sounding as the name change is, this headline buries the lede that Oculus devices aren’t going to require a FB login after all.

Taxing unrealized gains is a can of worms that NO ONE wants to open. Specifically because they aren’t guaranteed until the asset is sold. That $36B? It’s just on paper. In order to actually have that money, he’d have to liquidate his position in Tesla.......and if he were selling out, the stock price would go down

Great news.  Phone’s so good everyone wants one.  Can’t wait for mine.

something seems to be wrong with the measurements you got...

The basic idea of free speech is that we support someone’s right to speak their mind, even if what they say may be believed by some to be harmful or offensive. I mean, that’s why liberals rightfully mocked Rudy Giuliani for trying to censor feces-paintings of a Catholic demigod and that’s why people are rightfully

No, I think people are free to express their grievances. I just applaud Netflix for ignoring those people and letting an artist create art without censorship. As the famous Jean Sibelius said: “Never pay any attention to what critics say. Remember, a statue has never been set up in honor of a critic!”

Headline:

This is all really fucking stupid. I don’t care what the thing is called, I want the amazing space telescope up in the sky to start revealing the mysteries of the universe. PLEASE don’t make it wait ANY LONGER.

Lets name it the Chapelle Telescope instead

I feel like of all the hills to pick your battles on, this is an odd one for the LGBTQ community to choose. The telescope has been stuck in development for 2 decades. It’s faced delays and cost overruns left and right. Webb’s anti-LGBTQ actions (which I’m not yet convinced is not being overstated) were at least

Webb was a NASA administrator during the 19060s who aided in the persecution of LGBTQ employees.

To appeal to people like me who think it looks fantastic :-D

Definitely maybe getting one of these
My Pixel 3 is showing its age

I like the extra power and specs of the Pro, but the fucking size, man
6.4 on the standard Pixel6 is already HUGE, nevermind 6.7

Well, I am THAT person who notices whether there are one or two spaces after a period and the occasional two spaces between a word (blasphemy!).

And using one space after a period is just wrong,
