That’s not a requirement of Hanlon’s razor. Stupidity can be introduced at any point in the process. If a commander orders a firing squad to form a circle and they shoot each other, that’s on the commander, not the squad for shooting each other.

Hanlon’s razor: “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” Exact instructions with no allowance for judgment were given and followed exactly. Not malicious, just compliance with stupid instructions.

And I’ve hit the age when I am angry to see an old still from The Price is Right features pre-ozempic Drew Carey and not Bob Barker.

“Both incidents occurred in California, which despite its immense wealth and resources ranks second only to Texas in the number of workplace fatalities in the United States.” — As the most populous state, California should logically have the highest number of workplace fatalities. That they come in second after Texas, despite having 20-25% higher population, indicates they have far fewer workplace fatalities per capita.

I strongly support this idea as long as it is funded by universal healthcare and/or basic income.

App Clips. I’ve used these several times to pay for meals at restaurants. Those use Local for Toast. QR code on bill. Scan it. Check the items. Add the tip. Pay with Apple Pay. I eventually installed the app, but I think it still uses the clip interface instead of opening the app. Did it for parking once too, different app. My local Sunoco also has App Clip tags at the pumps, but I don’t need those. Definitely a self-serve deal in my experience. I’d see more if I went out more often.

“The only known official instance of cat litter being placed in school classrooms for potential use by students was in the late 2010s by the Jefferson County Public School District in Colorado, where the 1999 Columbine High School massacre took place. Some teachers were given “go buckets” that contained cat litter to be used as a toilet in an emergency lockdown situation, such as during a school shooting.[4][43][44]” — Note: official instance. I’ve been told it was popular enough for someone to sell premade “go buckets”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litter_boxes_in_schools_hoax

It was a DIY solution, not a kit, but great to know the idea was monetized.

To be clear, cat litter buckets in classrooms is a real thing in some schools but only to use in active shooter lockdowns if needed. When a classroom of kids is trapped for hours, someone will need to poop, and they’re going to want to cover up it and not smell it the whole time. So unfortunately there’s a perfectly valid reason for kids to poop in litter buckets at schools that these conspiracists, who are probably the same nutjobs who think school shootings are fake, are twisting into furry accommodation.

Just to be clear, we pay the cost of tariffs on imports.

“Earlier this week, DeepSeek unveiled its R1 model, which, the startup claims, meets, if not exceeds, performance from OpenAI’s o1 model released last year. (o1 is designed to tackle reasoning and math problems.)” — Oh, so China built their for math and we built ours for garbage. Interesting approach.

The plural of elemelon should be elemenōpē.

The movie is First Blood, not Rambo. Rambo wasn’t in the title until the second movie.

I mean, her outfit does survive fires and explosions, so it is pretty durable.

End of the line. Look at the track.

That reporting. Imagine her quote was an answer to a yes/no question. “imagine being and artist and having nearly 8 million monthly listeners on spotify but earning more money from having 1000 people subscribe to pictures of your feet. don’t hate the player, hate the game.”

The reporting doesn’t match her statement.

It’s worth noting that Allen doesn’t actually claim she earns more money from OnlyFans than Spotify. “imagine being and artist and having nearly 8 million monthly listeners on spotify but earning more money from having 1000 people subscribe to pictures of your feet. don’t hate the player, hate the game.”

💯 I bought a Sceptre as a smaller living room TV, which became our main TV, and it’s great. A smart TV is just a good TV with a crap computer built into it. I’d rather just have the good TV.

Without context, that’s the only way to read it. That leads me to side with the Rep on this dude’s writing.
