Most entertaining 12 minutes of my life i will never get back.

Its weird to see them push back on this one when this stuff will get into the groundwater and other shit of even the billionaires. You’d think they at least care enough about themselves to ban stuff that will kill and harm them too.

If you have a main and a master branch in the same repo and you don’t delete one at the very start of the project, God has abandoned the living bcz we’re lost and he has forsaken all that is good in the world.

Sure, but its also weird to insinuate that being a government employee of any kind means having meetings about meetings to decide if youre going to have a meeting about doing something.

Do you think only the government works that way with the whole meetings thing? Corporate america is like that as well, maybe worse even. And actually, I work as a federal contractor doing software stuff, and I dont attend meetings about meetings. Some of us, actually, most of us do have real shit to get done when they go to work.

TLDR: Meetings about meetings about meetings is for beaurocrats, not scientists and engineers.

I live in the U.S., how do I boycott American goods exactly? I cant just buy all foreign…

Just want to clarify, Waymo was using their camera tech to give the police protestor information yo arrest people. They didnt just get a little too rowdy and set a car on fire, it was an act of self preservation to further their protest. Its important to put that in context, and not just throw that out there like people were just being hooligans.

Oh noes, anyways…

How do you think they identify people in the dark, maybe street addresses? Either way, its not good news.

This is nice in theory since everybody hates those assholes at 1am lighting off fireworks still. But, using a drone to find people in the dark, identify them, and fine them, there is so much worse shit this will be used for. And we won’t be happy when the fascists come knocking bcz of this technology. We reap what we sow i guess.

He’s not wrong, there are people disillusioned with both parties. But if Elon thinks we’re all idiots, and will flock to other nazi party, I’ve got a bridge to sell him.

Maybe some of the center right, and magas who’ve been personally wronged by the Trumpsters will swing that way, but he’s gonna find the left isn’t quite as stupid as he thinks.

Split the vote ding dong, go on, do it. I dare you.

It absolutely is. I’m not denying that.

Yes, but the game industry has faced severe layoffs the last couple years while profits soar ever higher and higher and executives get bigger boats. So it’s relevant.

The last administration didnt try to gut NSF science funding, nasa, our Healthcare, social security, or any of the other dumb crap in the reconciliation bill just passed. If you seriously think the Biden administration was bad, you didnt pay attention. My job, my colleagues jobs are on the line, my partner might lose all funding for her job, my friends are losing their jobs, PBS and NPR facing funding cuts. My grandfather, my uncle, my step father, all potentially losing their disability, social security, etc. People trying to strip us of citizenship, this shit is not normal. The fact that you are trying to equate the two administration’s is fucking disingenuous as fuck.

I’m not even gonna address your points. We are all frustrated with the state of the U.S.

My point was just that the Trump administration is not better than the alternative. We can all agree on that. If you can’t or won’t admit that, then you’re part of the problem.

No it wasn’t. That’s delusional. We’ve been slow walking toward fascism for a while, but it wasn’t just always there.

This isn’t about Gaza. We all know that the situation in Gaza is fucked, and the Biden administration wasn’t friendly to Gaza. I was pissed as hell at their response. But that doesn’t mean bringing fascism home to the U.S. is the solution.

You really think you’re the smart one in every room you’re in dont you?

The Murdochs? Pretty sure people know about them.
