Worked at IBM. Co-worker was in the datacenter, saw a bluescreened machine, and rebooted it. Much chaos ensued. Machine was part of a stability testing project, team running it was OTW to the DC to look at the machine, and we’re very confused when they arrived that it was running. “Helpful guy” was chastised, given a warning about touching machines that weren’t his responsibility.

Two weeks later. Same guy. Same machine. Same bluescreen. Guess what he did? He rebooted it. Again.

Walked to the door that day.

Move to a credit union. HSBC is terrible.

Ya, perhaps. Time has taught my optimistic ass to be a pessimist where the IDF is involved. Or conservatives. Or… you know… People. ;)

You expect too much of the IDF.

So if a terrorist broke in to your home, locked you, your wife, and your kids in the basement, then launched a rocket from your bedroom window, you’d be 100% OK with the IDF turning your house in to rubble and your family in to compost? Really? Get a fucking grip, buddy.

Do we need AI for this? It’s already super easy to tell fake news from real.

Is it on BBC/CBC/Routers/AP? It’s probably real.

Is it on Forbes/Facebook/Xitter? It’s probably garbage.

Doctorow is a gem. Great article, thanks for posting. I basically agreed with everything he said.

Too true. :(

And the same morons will vote for PP here. Np brains, just slogans and anger.

Come on up to Canada. We’ve been suffering brain drain for ages, and could sure use some scientists and doctors!

Nothing racist about it. I don’t care if you’re white, black, or purple. I don’t hate the followers of Islam, but the religion itself is utter trash - as are all religions, and especially Abrahimic ones. Patriarchal bullshit.

Absolutely nothing.

People on the left (myself included) often conflate “recognizing the religion of Islam as harmful brainrot” with “people who follow Islam suck and should be hated.”

I don’t hate the people, but I sure do hate the brainrot. Same with Christianity, really.

I ate your bees!

Great! That means we can harvest 20% more customer data with only 7% more slowdown!
-some MS exec, probably.

Isreal only lets journalist murders go unpunished because it’s the IDF doing the murdering. They’re not going to prosecute their Schutzstaffel, after all.

Haiti, otoh, seems to be crime ridden and just unable to properly investigate as a result.

They don’t care if we want it. They want the info it’ll give them. This isn’t for us, it’s for them.

The rich control the laws and they don’t want to contribute.

I just got a Keychron Q3 HE and it’s amazing. Bit pricy, but it’ll last forever because it’s fully repairable. Even comes with all the req’d tools to disassemble. QMK/VIA, too!

Though true, doesn’t answer the asked question in any way. You still get to choose between shitty and fucking horrific AND shitty. So why abstain?

On point for religious nutters, though.

300sqft for $3500/month and they’re not even allowed to smoke?
