There’s so much in Infinite Jest, but I think my favourite would be “Blood Sister: One Tough Nun”.

And then there was the Quake 2 engine which gave us Deus Ex, American McGee’s Alice and then (through the modified GoldSrc version) Half-Life, Counter Strike and countless others! The family tree of 3D engines is really interesting.

But I thought LAME Ain’t an MP3 Encoder?!

Actually I never got that. WINE isn’t an emulator, but LAME very much is an MP3 encoder

Vance faced an onslaught of bad press, as many commentators—including Harris’ step-daughter, Taylor Swift fans, Democratic officials, actor Jennifer Aniston, and several conservative women pundits—decried his comment.

My reading comprehension must be pretty bad because for a second it sounded like Taylor Swift was Kamala Harris’ step daughter.

Cool I guess we’ll all just die then.

“The So-Called Debian State”

Yeah I guess so. But the fact that the police arrested him 2 days before the insurrection, ostensibly to prevent the insurrection itself, and then it happened anyway and everyone seemed super unprepared for it, idk the whole thing seems a bit weird. It’s possible that he’s just outlived his usefulness, but I wonder what was said in those 2 days after his arrest but before the 6th.

I don’t understand the story with this guy. Apparently he was arrested on January 4th, and had been an FBI informant for years: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-proudboys-leader-idUSKBN29W1PE

How is he now getting a 33 year long sentence if we was an informant?

I wish my government kept companies in check a bit more than they do. I live in the UK where all the water companies are owned by hedge funds and they keep discharging raw sewage into all our waterways. I feel we could do well to take back some control from them.

I wish the UK would do the same. At least in the US they learn a bit about slavery - here in the UK we learn nothing about the British Empire and its atrocities. No wonder we have statues of slave traders everywhere.

Looks like it would be freezing in winter though.
