    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    At this point, the only logical explanation for why the files haven't been found and leaked by some agent of chaos, if nothing else, is that they've done such a thorough job ensuring that only people who are willing to help them with the coverup are allowed anywhere within the halls of...

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    Remember, folks: Only suckers "buy" things from DRM-locked services in the first place.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    At this point I can't even imagine wanting to get one used, no matter how low the prices drop. Not because of the stigma—that's easily remedied by painting it yellow—but because it'd be impossible to maintain without continuing to give the company your money. Even if you were to hack it to stop...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    That article got me to re-read the text of the tweet, and... somehow the bit about Italians makes even less sense. He's not bashing them; he's accusing the trans community of hating them.

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    How many papers are part of this particular one? I feel like this would be unconscionable even if it were literally just the Washington Post that's doing this.

    So, we're asking them to turn themselves in so they can be locked up, with the threat of being caught and locked up if they don't. This man really just has no clue how to accomplish things, does he?

    On a related note, I keep forgetting to ask... that database that was left open to anyone to write to, how long did it take for someone to just inject a DROP TABLE and wipe the whole thing out?

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    This might interest y'all. The guys at Fight for the Future, whose emails I've been subscribed to ever since the SOPA protests back in 2009 or so despite not really doing a whole lot besides beg for money, just sent me a link to this thing they set up, which they claim will let you send a...

    The "What made you happy today" thread!

    I finally installed a shader pack for Minecraft yesterday, as part of my ongoing effort to get the most out of my new PC. Unfortunately Iris, the mod it runs on, causes the game to hang every couple seconds in fullscreen mode now, but for some reason it's fine if I just maximize the window, so I...

    I'd arrange it anyway just to see how they both react, but I might be a terrible person.

    AI don't trust techbros

    I'm getting flashbacks to 2009(?) when a whole bunch of websites went black for a day in protest of SOPA. And even that didn't feel this widespread; I remember getting very pissy on social media about Google not even acknowledging it.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Because they're listening to Trump and not you, Mr. Leech. Like, in both cases we have an audience being told "Can you believe how transparently stupid and evil these people are?" and going "Yes actually because we've believed they're that transparently evil for years now," and the only...

    P&R Funnies!

    I love that MapQuest somehow still exists like 20 years after Google Maps was launched. That it's apparently run by the last decent human being in the tech industry is just a nice bonus.

    Also the picture looks AI generated, but maybe that's just me. 6/ plane is purposely nosedived into Tesla HQ because DOGE fired the old pilot along with all their people who do background checks, and accidentally hired an anti-Trump fanatic who's willing to die for his country like a GODDAMN HERO

    Switch 2 official reveal

    You're going to have to dial back the snark and explain what you mean by "basic tablet functionality." Tablets have screens that flip around so they can be used in multiple orientations (this has nothing to do with that) and so you don't have to pay attention to which way you pick them up (also...

    Switch 2 official reveal

    I wonder what possible use that could have. Flipping them backwards cuts off access to all the shoulder buttons and also probably makes the device harder to hold. If it still has the IR sensors that the original Switch had, they'll be facing the other way, but what good that does when the device...

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    This is the US Congress we're talking about; 90% of Americans hate every member of it except their own, who is a perfect flawless saint and almost never loses a general election and definitely never loses a primary.
