Omarchy is toe shoes.

Nah its supporting a billionaire.

Mine seemed horribly out of date. Had constantly buys liquid death, but I havent in years since they switched to stevia. Also got constantly upgrading PC storage, not in 2026. Everything else was has work shop, likes precision tools, has a fujifilm camera, has fender guitar, works on guitar, upgraded server rack, invested in raspberry pi ecosystem. Most of what would give them that data was from accessory purchases, as the big purchase was probably local (guitar, camera). None of those aside from guitar strings would have been bought in 2026.

Yeah I had an ex who had to tell me the opposite. She just had weird germophobia about sitting on public seats then sitting on home furniture. I thought she was always just raring to go when we returned to one of our apartments.

Careful elon might steal your joke.

Which one of you ethical gooners.

That’s better than any billionaire has done though unethical capitalism.

My partner at work. He’s been there like 30 years and the joke is whenever we are struggling to fix something and I look for a part or tool, he’ll somehow have it working by the time I get back. Just gets bored waiting and starts poking stuff and its done. I would be frustrated but our old coworker said that’s been the status quo for a decade +

Fuck u/spez

VR is also great for movies!

If that was their goal I could respect that. But I think they just wanted to sell their souls and make billionaires more money.

I got a recruiter email for some peter theil backed company putting ai servers in the ocean using the tide to generate power and starlink to transmit data. I kinda wanted to take the interview just to tell them how dumb this idea is and what pieces if shit they are for taking theil money. But I ain’t got the energy for all that.

100% Whitespace should not be a funtional element of a language. Let me format it however looks best to me then just end the line with a ;

Not just piracy. Woke piracy.

My own personal morals are with where are the profits going? To the corporation ceos and stars? Then 100% stealing is justified. The writers, crew editors, session muscisians, programmera, designers etc got paid a salary once and yet others profit off it for decades, nah. I hold off on current shows if I want them to keep making more seasons.

I do try and be more thoughtful with bands and authors. I go to shows and signings and buy merch directly from them. Lord knows they don’t earn anything off Spotify so may as well have my own library. I get most ebooks through Libby and dedrm them or at least borrow for a day before acquiring elsewhere since dedrm seems more difficult these days.

Retro games they already made their money, liberate them or at least make it easy and cheap to own. Steam solved this for modern PC games by having so far a decent service.

So in your case shows over, no one sells it, and if they did only a corporation would profit. Take the show Ed, there was never a DVD release and there’s nowhere to stream it. So what other option is there if you want to rewatch it?

In this economy?!

Luna’s never met a person she didn’t like, though she’s pretty good at barking at anyone who comes to the door until she can see who it is. Even if its a stranger she’ll stop barking and start wagging as soon as she makes visual confirmation.

She’s an ol gal now and I’ve only seen her be genuinely in full defense mode a handful of times. Hackles up growling, or letting out a howl putting her self between me and the threat. I think every time was probably justified in her doggy mind as an extreme unknown situation. I always tell her though she doesn’t protect me, I protect her.

In your deus ex scenario who makes the augments? A mega corporation. So yes they will absolutely be vilified because they won’t be for the good of humanity they’ll be to charge a subscription for… vision, and spy on everyone you know.

Only way they should be accepted is as legit medical devices with open sources and no ability to stream or record video only pipe directly into the optic nerve. They should not be for tech bro fantasies.

I was staying in a cabin and went to get something from the car and a black bear was just cruising past. He looked at me and I looked him. We both kinda panicked and scurried off.

Guy went full Ders.
