FFS, can we stop being so difficult? WHICH P word? Penis? Pencil? Pogostick? What N word?

Can we just put the words there if we’re talking about specific words, so that not your entire readership needs to collectively guess what you’re talking about? Quote the words, if needed, but can we PLEASE stop censoring words, especially in news or educational context?

These days even “d**th” gets censored because oh boy o god, if somebody uses the D word, we will be in trouble!

We need wealth caps

Nobody should be able to be worth even more than ten million, let alone a trillion

19 million and anything over that goes to taxes

The point is more that even wars come down to economy.

All other things being equal, (s)he with the biggest economic breath has the biggest chance of winning

Where things get less equal is when you start destroying 25 million dollars of your opponent at the cost of 25 thousand for yourself.

This means, again all other things being equal, and assuming that you can continue making these kills, that your opponent needs an economy a thousand times larger than yours to be able to continue this in a sustainable way

This is in part also why Ukraine has been so successful against Russia, they found ways to cause millions of dollars worth of damage to Russia with relatively tiny budgets. Also, Ukraine’s focus is on crippling the Russian economy while Russia is still using the “let’s murder and terrorize their entire population” strategy from WWII which hasn’t worked out well for them

Fuck Microsoft with an umbrella, but in this case it’s not just only Microsoft, there are a lot more and bigger players on this shit dish

Angelbabyzz now has the much more pleasant problem of shopping for a replacement PC with a $3,500 budget

So she’ll be able to get some low budget 16GB machine, probably without a video card because 3500 dollars will only get you so far these days

You wouldn’t have the time for that

When the bright light comes, it kills you or it won’t, but by the time it’s there there is little.rinning to be done

It’s the other way around, but yes, very much yes

They know how to steer it and train it…we still know very little about how or why it’s making certain choices. This is also not a new problem, we had the same issue 40 years ago so don’t expect a quick solution on the horizon

Wow, so you really want to steal all the Americans blind.

Well, they voted for it, so good luck, I guess?

None of you are getting bonuses this year because we’re heavily investing into replacing all of you

Fuck is also not benevolent

this will be done in three seconds

Hah! Fractions of that

On a side note: Who ever thought that those led lights on memory sticks was a good idea? I brought 128 GB right before memory prices went insane, lucky me, but the modules have led lights (the store was out of the normal ones)

My computer now looks like a tacky circus and I can’t turn it off, I can’t find bios options to disable it

Hey, at least it doesn’t run windows.

Things can always be worse

In the US this mostly hasn’t been true anymore since Trump II started. Companies found out they no longer need to pretend to care, they can just go straight to fucking over everyone

Same story. 2022 I got 12 interviews in one week, 8 in the next from about 30 applications (not counting interviews for second round)

Done i didn’t pass, others didn’t pass me

2026, I’m looking again

200+ applications.

1 reply so far that at least got me a third interview round but I just found out there are 2 more rounds. It’s a higher level job, fine, but seriously… 200, and the one that replied was application #2

From the rest?

Nothing. A very few (less than ten) at least replied with the “we love you but…” mails, the rest didn’t even bother with that much.

Companies have been very spoiled somehow because most think it’s okay to ask for an application that you include a cover letter why you want the job, a separate letter saying why you love the xpmpa souch, a one minute video about how I love the company, and so on

BITCH did you forget that an employment is a mutually beneficial relationship, where you get the fruits of my work and you pay me a good salary? You are not the king, your company sucks and I want to work because I need an income to pay rent

And here I was thinking that I was cynical

You okay, buddy?

SEO is only doable for larger companies which people are more andore trying to avoid because they’re expensive and shit anyway

Same for Linux and office365

Word 365 on Linux is literally sabotaging you, at random deleting texts you previously wrote. Whole sets of words just randomly disappear as if you never typed them. You type them, they’re there, you continue typing and 1-2 paragraphs later, part of the text you wrote is suddenly gone. No undo available or anything, it’s as if it never happened.

It got to the point heere i wrote documents in Google drive, then exported then and imported them in word 365, that did work

Then I found out that all I had to do is send M$ servers a user agent header saying it’s Windows 11 And suddenly everything works

The terrifying incident underlines the very real dangers of relying on autonomous vehicles for ride shares, while they still suffer from nagging technical shortcomings

I don’t care if they have a perfect driving record or not, anything autonomous MUST be equipped with clearly visible emergency stop buttons, why the fuck aren’t those there?
