I love looking at big cats for this reason. There's something so cute about them having people-ish (or dog-ish, as you please) eyes.

We have so much debt but also all the police forces have become hyper militarized and laden with the left-over military hardware of the last 30 years of American warfare.

Jesus. Thanks for posting this.

It's just people. The more of them you get in one place, the more shitheads crop up.

Does it have any emailing functionality? Like will a reminder come remind me through email, or is it only as valuable as I am checking it often?

I think this is terrific. How much experience do you have programming, and what languages/frameworks did you use for this? I'm asking as a beginner who never knows where or how to really get started hobby programming, but really admires people who are out there doing cool shit.

Gameboy + Zelda: Link's Awakening bundle when I was like 6. That was an absolute guarantee gaming would get its hooks in a person.

I hate EdTech so fucking much.

The world seems to be led by idiots at every level. Top to bottom. That's not an observation just to bitch; it's meant to let you know that you can aim higher. If your boss is a fucking idiot, if the head of your organization is a fucking idiot, then that should show you how far someone with a brain in their head must be able to go, too. Don't feel defeated and relegated to nothing roles. Be inspired by how apparently easy it is for fucking idiots to do seemingly important or well-paying jobs, and then start thinking about whether you can show them up.

Also, you never realize how important project management is until you work in an environment where no one gives two shits about it. It turns out that writing things down, planning, documenting, agendas, follow-up, attending meetings you said you would attend, being able to back up the things you say, are all very fucking important. It turns out that being an incompetent piece of shit and con artist can get you very, very far, but gradually, people start to realize they've been had; one only hopes that the department or organization are still in one piece by the time and that they have the authority to get rid of you.

AT&T fiber does allow IP passthrough mode though so if you want to run your own hardware you can.

It's like Putin is genociding his own lads.

They can force upgrade themselves in the ass.

The only thing I'm looking forward to more than the collapse of the AI bubble is Microsoft, specifically, eating shit at the hands of a public that doesn't want, need, or give two shits about them anymore. Just like Intel or whatever your favorite example is, see some fucking titan that thought they were some great titan, only to turn out to be Ozymandias when the whole fucking world looks up at them and shrugs. Like the end of the Truman show when this massive, all-consuming industry of a production comes crashing down in an evening, and the television viewers at home happily shrug and say, "what else is on?"

The word about Linux is out, and, as Snazzy Labs recently pointed out, Macs have accidentally become the best value in new computers. There are excellent non-Windows options for ordinary people who just do everything through a web browser and an office suite, for not much money all over the fucking place, and the day their greed catches up to them and they start to lose real market share is so close I can taste it.
