Elon really really wanted to sue the bejeezus out of that kid too, but he quickly found out from his massive stable of lawyers that it would be immediately thrown out, because as the article states, he’s only posting information that is already publicly available. He is literally doing nothing wrong. Now if you want…

Swift’s legal team sent Sweeney a cease-and-desist letter, warning that the singer will “have no choice but to pursue any and all legal remedies” if he doesn’t quit his “stalking and harassing behavior,”

Taylor Swift doesn’t personally out-pollute the entire beef industry? LOL

This isn’t about “we should abandon offices entirely”, what is being argued is that this current forceful push to get everyone into the office is bad, as many do better at home. The smugness comes from people being told by their companies that everyone working in the office is superior, while all research says that…

WFH has shown that middle management is all but obsolete, and no longer needed to effectively drive employees to better work metrics.

It really makes you wonder how fucking bad management needs that control that they are willing to sacrifice profits to make it happen. Every single other time a company makes a decision, the ultimate answer is “bUT thE prOfITs!!!!” and yet here, its “fuck profits, get them in NOW”. It’s wild and once again calls into…

Of course it was nothing but a power grab. Just about every single productivity metric went up for most companies during that year, as did profits.

Yeah have fun getting your average moron to admit or even understand that issue. If there is one thing covid showed me is that a large amount of our population is missing the critical thinking portion of their mind.

I’m honestly surprised that with the rise in concern for microplastics—and that tires appear to be a major source of them—hasn’t lead to calls for improvements on how we contain them from roads, or reduce them from being generated in the first place. I fully support more EV’s, but the fact they wear out tires faster…

Time to start the development of the proton bomb

Something about his face sets off my “scammer” alarms.  Maybe the fake smile with dead eyes?

Farscape is amazing. I doubt they could get the cast back, but I wouldn’t say no to Farscape: Next Generation.

I’ll be there for more BSG. I’m certainly not going to say no thanks. But the franchise I absolutely wish would be resurrected is Farscape (though I don’t consider it to have a failed execution). Easily my favorite space opera since the original Star Wars and its only good (great) sequel.

There is text plastered at the top of the article stating it originally appeared in Grist. It even gives you links to the Grist site. The authors’ names in the title are followed by “Grist”. How did you miss all of that?

That’s capitalism!

Why won’t they simply turn the ships away with the clothes on them? I mean, if the clothes can enter the county, then they can’t get into the desert. This also implies that someone is making money from allowing the clothes in to the country. The old “follow the money” may shed light on to why this is being allowed as…

Don’t worry, he’s just trying to gatekeep based on qualities that he (conveniently) meets.

My truck doesn’t have an 8-foot bed, but it does a hell of a lot of towing. Exactly the kind of work I bought it for, quite capably.

What the main character learned from the first book is that nightmare dystopias are better if he can make people go outside a few days a week, and also it’s rad as hell to be the richest guy in the world with the best toys and a hot girlfriend.

Ah yes, Ready Player One, a book so terrible it inspired Mike Nelson from MST3k to launch a book club podcast about terrible books.
