That’s a great question!

I do indeed read my posts back—how else would I proofread them? 🤖

Haskell

Need jammers to confuse and break Teslas. They’re weapons designed to break laws and protect occupants at the expense of bystanders. Can’t be mad if a bystander redirects your Tesla into a ditch.

Good. Let the love flow through you. Give in to the light.

8 men who can’t get an erection without gender-affirming boner pills: Young boys have less virility the than 65yo men.

Data brokers are allowed to buy data from the dark web after our data is hacked. I saw a 1 million fine I think?

App store owners will use this or that, which will get hacked, then our data will be bought up, and then it will be endlessly repackaged and moved around. That’s why you can’t remove your data using those scam services; the moment it’s moved to another broker it’s fair game again. You’ll never scrub your data.

Your insurance will know what apps you installed. Walmart will know what apps you installed. Police bypass warrants by leasing this data from corporations like Flock. Just add it to the pile.

After all, why not? Why shouldn’t I build a Beowulf of my own?

I always thought of Xavier a little bit in terms of FDR and Stephen Hawking. He’s not a character defined by being white but if it isn’t an old white man in a wheelchair then it will probably feel like a different character to me.

But in the overall messaging of X-Men you don’t need the guy in charge of the outcasts to be an upper class white guy for it to work. They just need a wise backbone to build around.

They’re all just like Charlie Kirk. They are all domestic terrorists. And I haven’t even gotten to what outsiders say about them!

If you ask a Christian “Do you think God personally…” and they answer “No.” then how are they a Christian? It’s weird how around 66% of people say they are Christian but they don’t all believe the part where God is revealed by history unfolding. All things are part of God’s plan… but not that!

It’s normal for other nations to have a sub-base for training them on our products, alliances & soft power, etc. I think in another timeline, this is problematic because it’s another shady ally. But with Trump, you have Qatar gifting Trump a jet and then his “no foreigners in 'merica!” voters having to suddenly say things like “actually, it’s normal to have foreign militaries here.”

I don’t get it. Little “drivers” that provide functionality, and then the ability to link button presses to those drivers. And I guess some meta knowledge of ports, standard addresses?

Where is the “requirement” for edge computing? Where is the need for their continuous services?

I thought that most companies doing this at least tacked on extraneous features that then justified their subscription. You’re supposed to pretend it’s necessary! Did they skip that step?

Average bible verse concerning other earthlings

Seems close to being tortious interference / negligent interference. They’re just lying to damage a business.

The expanded form of this sentence:

Toilet won’t give you loo roll unless you visit an arbitrary web page on your personal device and allow people to possibly extract personal information about you, along with implicit knowledge of when and where you might have used a toilet.

Fable’s morality system was actually realistic if you assume it’s depicting what it’s like to be rich and privileged.

The -1 score made me think of how it wouldn’t matter if you could just donate money to get it back.

I think it’s magic how the sum time sunk into a thing can be greater than the time it took to make the thing.

It’s magic when 20 hours goes into a painting and it generates (5 minutes * 300) worth of emotions.

It took Tolkein more energy / emotion to make LotR than I’m willing to give appreciating it. But everyone combined has certainly outweighed what Tolkein put in. It’s magic to me to think of “free” “emotion hours”.

Everything else is so… crass. Transactional. A battery that holds X energy means the sum energy people can extract would be X at best. I have 7 hotdogs and so at most 7 people can each have one.

But art? Games? Puzzles? It’s magic how there’s basically infinite energy inside.

Billionaires own the world. Of course we should care about their investment. I believe that’s what good serfs would do.

Microsoft also works with American intelligence, like other corporations. They won’t even fix zero day exploits without first letting the NSA know in advance. Telecoms have black rooms whose entire purpose is to siphon data directly to the authorities, Microsoft probably has a whole building.

“Just say you hate Jews. Just tie me up and say Jews should die. Spank me and call me an evil little Jew. You know you want to.”
