I used to eat out of boredom, and I gained a lot of weight. Then I took up the guitar during Covid. Now when I get bored, and tempted to eat something, I pick up the guitar and start playing. Soon I forget that I was bored, and forget about eating. I’ve lost 85 pounds, and I’m still losing.
Maybe he shouldn’t have permabanned all of us power users after the Inauguration. He might have some active humans posting if he hadn’t let the DOGE Goblin intimidate him into firing all of his best posters, the ones who built Reddit into what it was over the past decade. WE were Reddit, not bots, and now we’re gone, and only the bots remain.
Good job, Spez.
Garbage in, garbage out.
Every time I see this Nazi Aristocrat, I am reminded that I have to sharpen my guillotine.
Let them wear watches.
The government’s job is to regulate sex toys so that all insertables have a flared end. MAGA wants to end all sex toy regulation. We should definitely protest this, and wave our dildos proudly.
It would be under NASA, but the argument is moot, since it wouldn’t happen under a MAGA Nazi administration. It will have to wait until Americans take back our government. Then we can nationalize Space X, confiscate the DOGE Goblin’s fortune, and deport him back to South Africa.
SpaceX should be nationalized. We paid for it, it’s ours.
I can’t believe nobody has said Coco. I dare anyone to get through the end without at least a tear or two.
I knew a guy who said “I’ve had kidney stones, and I’ve been shot, and the kidney stones hurt worse.”
Underrated, but terrific epic.
I liked the basic premise that the East Coast of America would be controlled by the Nazis, and the West Coast by the Japanese, with the middle being a No-Man’s Land, controlled by factions of American rebels.
At least, that’s how I remember it. The size of America would make it difficult to fully control from coast to coast.
Get a bidet, and it makes it easier to put a day or two between showers.
That’s even worse.
If you already have a good computer, that much money could outfit an entire home music recording studio with decent gear, especially if you buy good used gear, which is easily available:
A couple of good super-budget guitars from Harley Benton (a Strat clone and a Les Paul clone), for about $300 (new).
A good Yamaha acoustic guitar, $100.
A bass, $75.
An interface, to get the music into the computer, $50.
A basic MIDI controller, $30.
A good electronic keyboard with weighted keys, $100.
Microphone, $75.
Headphones, $50.
Electronic drum machine, $50, or use the pads on the MIDI controller, or voices on the keyboard.
DAW - Reaper is free, and works great.
That’s approximately what I spent on my studio, and everything works great, and sounds terrific…
They already have them that you can carry in your pocket.
I can detect gravity without a device:
Jump off a roof. If you hit the ground, you’ve detected gravity.
How’s the view with your head in the sand?
Between AI and Robotics, we will likely have a permanently unemployed segment of close to 50%, or even more, within the next decade.
Not everyone will be able to be retrained to be a robotics engineer or AI programmer, and many, many jobs that are considered entry-level will disappear. Imagine a world where most fast food and retail workers are unemployed.
When 40% of America is unemployed, the government will be faced with 2 options - Universal Basic Income, or reducing the population by 40%. Which solution will each party embrace, and how will they accomplish their objectives?
Aldi and Trader Joes will gladly take over all their locations. Those Germans don’t care about Red and Blue.
