They’re brown AND their country has a very Spanish sounding name. I can hear <insert drunk uncle> talking about it now: “any sumbitches from a place called PWER-TOE REEE-KO ain’t Mexicans just as much as any sand n*****s from Saudi Arabia ain’t AY-RABS!”
My two closest friends that justifiably own trucks are women. They are dirty and beaten up base model chevrolets. They certainly don’t need to compensate for dick size. They just have big dogs and work together on a farm!
I feel like they snuck in a little square of reasonable terms with
Best practices Optimization Industry standard Authenticate
But now that I’ve typed it, I’m scared that optimization and authenticate have gross business-speak definitions I just don’t know about yet.
I almost expect that we’ll see some company reveal it has been letting an AI control the top level decision making for the business itself, including if and when to reveal the AI.
But the funny thing will be that all the executives and board members still have jobs and huge stock awards. They will all pat each other on the back for getting paid more money to do less work, by being bold and taking a risk to let the computer do half their job for them.
Another recommendation for Linux Mint here. Just live boot off a USB drive and try it out. Maybe dual boot for a while if you’re unsure about just getting rid of windows cold turkey.
I use it daily on my work machine (2 year old Dell laptop) and it feels pretty flawless and polished. Even for basic desktop stuff I like it better than windows, but then all the techy Linux shit it’s still there if you care to use it. I use this “user friendly” distro to stare at plain text in monospaced fonts all day, usually between source code files and command-line stuff.
A default install of Linux Mint Cinnamon has a classic windows layout of a taskbar and start button.
But things like searching and updates actually work smoothly and quickly.
Aw, so close to us having a real life Protoss carrier.
However, there are moments in history where it becomes necessary to put country over party.
So putting the country first is the exception?
Not that it’s going to surprise anybody.
She pulls that shit when you guys have a child?
I don’t want to come at you with frustrating cliches and platitudes about how time heals all wounds and you’ll find the actual right person, but your post gave me big “dodged a bullet” vibes. In this case you definitely got grazed by the bullet, but still.
You really think the NSA will get involved to track someone who wants to get an abortion?
Probably not, unless it’s an exceptional case where they are already interested for another reason.
But if, say, county sheriffs across the country also got access, I would be surprised if I didn’t hear about women’s and doctors’ lives being ruined by them.
Well if they can keep income inequality growing, there’s a big pool of wage slaves to draw from with much better optics.
It seems pretty consistent that any time I hear somebody mention Sharia Law, I am in for some horrible takes.
No anomalies detected in this case.
Of course there are, because mining and construction are powered by the old stuff. That doesn’t seem like a compelling downside to building things that generate clean power, since that’s a downside to building literally anything.
At first I wanted to reply about how one can HOPE that capitalism’s never ending extraction of value from labor might build a better future and enable more happiness.
But there’s a deeper assumption in that statement, and in my limited personal experience it affects conservatives the most. That is thinking that happiness is caused by external factors: money, toys, status, power, etc.
How wonderful would it be if the ultimate effect of the AI fad was to use the tech industry’s billions to install tons of carbon free power generation?
I’m using Linux mint all day at work, while I have a couple of rarely-used Windows machines at home. I think the swap to Linux on those home machines is going to be a winter project this year.
It might be more accurate to say the project will be setting up the Linux version of a few key pieces of software. The actual installation of Linux Mint is the easiest part!
Don’t threaten me with a good time!
Imagine how nice it would be to have the Trump news cycle focused on his movements throughout Siberia to evade his enemies, rather than focused on a potential chaotic dismantling of the US.
The first rule of [REDACTED] club, y’all.
Oh man, same. It’s one thing to constantly hear about various privileged and lucky shitheads trying to make the world worse for others. It’s another thing entirely when the universe has seen fit to give such a bad one so much influence.
Much like with the pandemic, I try to at least appreciate when I am living through something historic. And when it is “future history students will not believe this is real” level stupidity, dark humor is waiting right there.
At work I dual boot Windows 10 and Linux Mint. It is astounding how much better the user experience is for updates on the Linux side. Or maybe I should say, it’s astounding how much worse the Windows experience is. I think Mint takes about as long to update Firefox, vscode, and my freaking kernel all at once as Windows takes to update Microsoft Defender definitions.
