@IanHill WTF. I'm sure they're going to test those algorithms on disabled people, people with chronic illnesses, and new parents. I'm sure that a tired mom will still be able to drive her sick infant to the ER and won't be stranded and have to rely on slow and expensive ambulance service, too. No way this could go wrong. No way someone will have to pay $30/month to enable this service so they can use their car.
@Khrys @thedarktangent what the actual fuck, you’re reposting and spreading an article that targets an open source maintainer by insulting him and making his picture into a wanted poster? Seriously?
Djibouti's former colonizer France has had a permanent military presence in Djibouti since the country's 1977 independence...which Djibouti kept as a tool to fend off possible territorial threats during the cold war from Ethiopia and Somalia. In July 2024, Presidents Macron and Guelleh signed a renewal of the 🇩🇯 🇫🇷 military pact that would keep the 1,500 French soldiers in the country, with Djibouti pocketing a cool 85M euros annually.https://www.arabnews.com/node/2555906/world
@jfred @16af93 I am! I also unscrewed it from the main chassis earlier this week while investigating something and screwed it back on(I had to unscrew two other completely different laptops for other reasons recently and the experience was absolutely f'ed by comparison, one of several reasons for this thread!)
@cwebber OKAY SO last month on the video game history foundation discord people were discussing the oldest known sonic OCs and this one came up, which is fan art printed in the UK Sonic the Comic, Issue 25, cover date 30 April 1994. It's described as Tails' girlfriend, but I can't help seeing this as just Tails who has come out as transfemme/femboy. Which I actually love for him/her/them 😆
@bryan the editors being absolute killers is funny, for sure. They cut from Desmond telling the old joke, "I you see me fighting a bear, help the bear" to leaving the island before the first night because he saw bear poop.
Boat drinking game, where whenever a contestant on Alone builds, pilots, falls out of, or loses the game because of, a boat, you drink. For serious drinkers, only.
@fesshole In NZ I once met a guy at a hostel who showed me "how tea is acutally meant to be drunk". And he took a tea bag, dipped it into hot water 2 times and put it into waste.I thought that's a lot of war and suffering for just two dips.
@spdrnl @swggrkllr3rd @Tooden @alex_p_roe @ChrisMayLA6 Read my original post in this thread. I called out his being willing to run Thiel’s UK subsidiary as reflecting on his character.
