I’m not sure at all why you’re pointing at a rule established in 2024 and promptly rescinded in 2025 as a way to point out govt. waste.
This is a profoundly dismissive and even circular take...or at least an intentional misrepresentation of what I said. When I say personnel constraints, I mean there are almost not enough people to do the work that needs…
My spouse works in the DOI and while there maybe some inefficiencies, particularly in process, it isn't the people themselves which are the problem. Her group operates on razor-thin budgets and personnel constraints.…
We had a significant reduction in government workforce during the Clinton administration. The stark difference is that THAT effort was handled with careful planning and through the proper channels. The way any mature,…
I’m not sure it would be legal for them to remove something they actually advertise as a feature to sell the car. Also I’m sure they’d be hit with a class-action lawsuit immediately if they tried it. Manufacturers sell…
Auto manufacturers aren’t likely to provide updates over the long term. Imagine if your ten year old car hasn’t seen an infotainment update in four+ years. Or if you want to buy used. Personally I’d much prefer my…
I haven't used superpowers yet, but it seems a major focus of this release was to reduce clocktime as well as token spend. From TFA (well, blog): > The long and the short of it it is that across about 36 hours of work…
The switch emulators Yuzu or Ryujinx perhaps?
> The kind of polish they put into absolutely everything, including these announcements, is incredible. 100%. They're easily the gold standard for emulation and open-source gaming...and possibly open-source projects in…
Probably. But it would be at least somewhat thought-out and apply to all the AI providers. Not just the one currently disfavored by Captain Dipshit and the Sycophants. I really don't know why business cozies up to Trump…
Elon?
At my core, I do believe it's a good thing, so don't try to frame things as if I'm ethically opposed to the overarching idea here. It's that the powers-that-be have and always will have more resources to bring to bear…
No, this really hasn't always been the case. At least not in the sense it is today. 20 years ago your misinformation came from television, radio, and print. All of those things were expensive to produce and there was an…
You should reconsider the scope. Nobody is losing sleep over Airbnb pics. We’re in an era now where every image and video (and for that matter audio) is potentially fake; where knowing what’s real and true is no longer…
> Pithy, dismissive, reductionist, and wrong. No, it's not. I completely unplugged from broadcast TV simply because I can no longer stand to be bombarded with FUD, manufactured lifestyles, propaganda, etc., that…
Since when have we considered ads something helpful? Their purpose isn’t to be helpful. They're there to sell you something, and nothing more. Any semblance of helpfulness is misinterpretation and merely coincidental.
I think the rule of thumb for non-professionals is: Buy cheap and if you use it enough that it breaks, buy expensive the second time.
Maybe the entire approach is inappropriate.
You don’t think there might be a better solution than having a dozen or more companies all launching thousands of satellites which all perform the same function?
> at least it's also hilarious. Until it stops being hilarious. Then what?
I thought this was debunked awhile ago. ?
A strong and convincing rebuttal!
My buddy and I are writing our own CRUD web app to track our gaming. I was looking at a ticketing system to use for us to just track bug fixes and improvements. Nothing I found was simple enough or easy enough to…
I don't understand why people with this opinion think it's worth the effort to post it.
You're a gamblin' man, I see...
