Engineers have the best of intentions. The Bean counters have very different intentions and they’re the ones that corporate listens to.

It should be noted that he is pulling quite a bit out of the market and holding it in cash. $344B in cash. He isn’t waiting for a dip. He expects a crash.

I found that it has zero ability to infer and suggest from what I’m typing. If I typo “mine inch”, easy to do on a phone keyboard, it is completely lost. But YouTube knows that I’m definitely looking for nine inch nails. “Chicken tr” on YouTube knows I’m looking for chicken tractors before I even finish, Odyssey is completely lost and requires me to type the whole thing out. When I’m searching for music it requires me to know exactly what I’m looking for and doesn’t offer much in the way of exploration help.

And craptastic search and discovery features.

He doesn’t know Jobs was wiped out by cancer?

You aren’t knitting fast enough. Crochet can fix that.

I broke my wrist and took up knitting for physical therapy.

I’m starting to look at weaving from natural fibers. I have yucca in my yard. The roots are a calorie source and the fronds can make durable shoes.

You can do both

Just @ me next time

If I asked just for the topics I care about then I’m not helping anyone else reading. I’m looking for the quality sources. The ones that aren’t filled with filler. The ones that have the key news stories and the oddball stuff.

by links?

I stopped using RSS a long long time ago. And then when I left Reddit and found Lemmy, I also restarted my RSS feeds and cleaned up the links. I don’t go there everyday but I do enjoy when I get there.

But I have asked in numerous places for people’s best RSS links and always come up with zero feedback.

So let’s try it here. What are your best RSS links?

I did. I had already bought the pizza and the beer. We pulled into our driveway and my wife said " before we get out, I want to see if we can help now." Next thing you know, pizza gets stuffed in the oven for safekeeping and I’m off to bathe cats before I’ve had a single beer.

After I inspected and bathed everyone of them. I finally got my beer and I turned on oven to heat back up the pizza.

I barely pass a Turing Test. I’m pretty sure I’m powered by alcohol, nicotine and Toxoplasma gondi.

I think it means that retrolemmy is either an expert in what is retro or that they are very protective of their retro territory.

Is this loss?

Minimalism is for people that can solve any problems with money. No tools. No rainy day supplies. No “just in case” in the back of a cabinet. Something breaks? Call a guy. Need 300 cup cakes? Catering.

It’s a philosophy for the rich. Not a philosophy that makes you rich.

Now imagine how government will effect that. You know how the government’s been trying to put back doors into hardware? A lot easier to do when you own part of a major chip manufacturer. Do you think having a steady supply of government orders will make them innovate or get lazier? Why is the government proving up a dragging company? Isn’t that picking losers and winners like Republicans had issues with in the Solyndra deal?

Intel failing isn’t a reason for the government to get involved, it’s a reason to stay away.

I really feel like we are talking past each other. I’m talking about people who wanted to privatize the Social Security system and sell off the USPS because they believed any amount of government in any service was dangerous. I’m not being histrionic, I’m asking the people who have spent decades being histrionic to explain why they are suddenly very chill with something that was, until a week ago, a firmly held religious belief.

Don’t mistake my position for that of the people I’m trying to reach.
