I got some Etymotic reusable plugs and I never leave home without 'em. They come with a little carrying case, and they don't affect the frequency response of my hearing (just the overall decibel level!)

I'm not concerned about her, I'm concerned for her.

Hey buddy, they admitted they didn't know what the star even was.

it turns out if you are all able to stop work at once (and discourage scabs from crossing your picket line) you have power, whether or not you're an employee on paper.

You can assign each rational number a single unique integer though if you use a simple algorithm. So the 1:1 correspondence holds up (though both are still infinite)

For every integer, there are an infinite number of real numbers until the next integer. So you can't make a 1:1 correspondence. They're both infinite, but this shows that the reals are more infinite. (and yeah, as other people mentioned, it's the 1:1 correspondence, countability, that matters more than the infinite quantity of the Real numbers)

I think he knows what he's doing, since all he's really doing is stuffing his pockets. Doesn't take a genius to cartoonishly sell out the entire planet's economy for personal gain. I'm sure if he manages to crash the dollar he'll be thrilled to roll out Trumpcoin as the alternative and then rugpull the world a second time.

To me it looks like the Epstein scandal gives her a plausible way to transition to a presidential bid for 2028.

The concept is used by Palantir the corporation to refer to the fact that they are placing the world under malevolent surveillance. And they're clearly proud of that malevolence. Yucky.

I use my great grandfather's bottle opener. It's magnetic and sticks to my fridge, and it's over 100 years old. Works great!

But it does highlight that any random brute could put on a mask and do this with no authorization whatsoever. It's a fundamental human-rights and rule-of-law breakdown to fail to present a warrant. I agree that a warrant doesn't ethically make the arrests anything short of monstrous, though. That kind of legalist can suck eggs.

 

Do any of you have a plan in place for how to tune into the 2024 Paris Olympics? I've got a good Jellyfin ecosystem set up to watch my video files and listen to my music, but I haven't explored many ways to watch live sports content yet. What is the best way to tune in to the events at the Paris Olympics this summer? They're split across several TV channels. Smooth UX would be my priority - I'm willing to spend a little money if need be. So I was considering going for a Youtube TV free trial during the event, but is there a better method?
