The Onion had a good joke about that a decade ago believe it or not.

Its sad that it takes such ludicrous displays before people acknowledge that “there is something wrong with Trump”. And then large chunks of them will in the next breath continue to support him.

The executive formerly known as Tim Apple

Ah you’re right. I had to go back and read the specific text. Been so long since I have sat down to read any of it I had forgotten that was covered.

I stand corrected

Gonna try and pull a Putin with Trump?

Take Trump as his running mate, then if he wins resign so Trump can be President again.

I would be less concerned about it being the end of uncensored models than I would be Nvidia finding ways to make sure there are no free models hosted there that work well on anything but Nvidia hardware for the foreseeable future.

Dude also has his house blurred out on Google Maps street view.

Hey, those old school Craftsman ratchets and wrenches last forever. My dad bought a set in the 70s, he died in 2023 and they were one of the things I kept in the aftermath and they are way better than the ones I have bought for myself over the years that are much newer.

My advice to anyone these days is if you want it to last get the version of that thing that was being sold in the 1950s-1970s. Maybe the 80’s/90’s depending on what it is. If it was made in the last 20 years it is almost always made to be thrown away in a decade or less.

“whats going on here? what are we doing?”

Let’s put him on one for that many days without his creature comforts and see what he thinks after that.

Spoken like someone who has clearly never actually tried to put that kind of thing into practice.

Of you listen to some of Hitlers speeches with the mindset of someone not already rich in early 1930’s Germany with what they have been going through, what he is proposing and who he is blaming doesn’t actually sound all that insane.

Don’t forget the jalapeños.

As shit as it is there is a every growing list of things you had better just be prepared to not interface with on your phone if you are going to run a Android phone without Play Services installed.

Flip side to that is once I switched my Pixel to GrapheneOS without having access to things that only work right with Play Services the phone became way less interesting outside of phone, text, casual web browsing, and photos. Which is probably a good thing.

If it isn’t my mother, wife, daughter or place of business I already have the number for in my contact list it goes to voicemail and is never listened to, period.

Everyone else of note already knows to send me a message on whatever app we already regularly talk on.

And nothing of real value to gamers will be lost.

Should set them back up at the edge of the sheriff’s front yard pointed at the front of his house feeding a video stream to publicly available website, see how he likes having that BS watching him all the time.

I can’t say AI hasn’t changed how I work, it has. Instead of going to Google, vendor docs, or the manpage for whatever code or system I am working on I will ask Claude or Gemini to take a stab at building the initial pass of the code or to look up what some cryptic error code means for me. Or even a better way to write some code that I think can be more concise.

The key I think is I never let it make the final decisions for me. The workflow is always look up information > shows it to me > ask for permission to do the thing > do the thing.

But none of that is “changing everything” in the way executives and the Sam Altman’s of the world want to profess. It is just a sometimes more efficient for me way of doing the same thing I was doing before.

A lot of people I have seen that crow about how they are using AI to change their work lives are just doing really fancy Github workflows and actions to automate something they used to still do manually for some reason. They rarely are doing anything that couldn’t be done with the time to research and test without AI.

As long as outlets like the Daily Beast keep talking about him and keeping his name out there he is getting what he wants. You want to hurt Trump, one of the best ways is to not pay any attention to him.

Outside of Facebook what has he been responsible for that didn’t blow up in his face? The only other things Meta has that aren’t thus far miserable failures are Instagram and Whatsapp, both of which they bought.
