  • The 2026 Ford Mustang Mach-E Makes the Frunk a $495 Option

    Jump

  • Same with my Q8 e-tron. If there was a button to open it like the trunk I may use it more, but frankly I’ve forgotten it’s there.

  • Republicans are freaking out over Texas Senate race

    Jump

  • People also forget Texas had a Democratic governor in the 90s, which is what caused republicans to start playing dirty.

  • Iran Faces US Wrath, But 5,000 Sailors On USS Ford Face 650 Failing Toilets

    Jump

  • As is the US isn’t figuratively shitting on the world, now they’re doing it literally.

  • We now know what Trump's "locker room banter" looks like

    Jump

  • I’m torn as to what I’d do if given the chance. I applaud the 5 who chose not to go. But it would have been so hard not to accept the invitation just to be able to insult him to his face, consequences be damned.

    The double edged sword of not going continues to perpetuate his bubble of yes men and sycophants.

  • Something about work / life balance

    Jump

  • I didn’t ask for this…

  • In less than a year, Trump erased 12 years of solvency for the trust fund that pays for Medicare Part A | Fortune

    Jump

  • You’re right that it might be pretax, but I’m forced to pay it and can’t choose to invest it myself and it’s for a specific purpose that I have no control over, so it’s functionally a tax.

    And don’t get me started on the fact I’ll probably never see a dime even though I’ve contributed over $200K

  • More than 2 years later, has anything interesting happened with the leaked GTA V source code?

    Jump

  • Between the fact you could mod it to hell already and the resources were already easy to decompile there wasn’t much left. There’s possibly some cheats for Online but everyone expects things to be crazy there, so there wasn’t as much value.

  • Isn’t taxing SS basically a double tax? We pay for it once already through our contributions to it while working

  • TOML

    Jump

  • Should have added if it cares about tabs vs spaces.

  • TOML

    Jump

  • I have a fundamental disdain for formats with restrictive white space definitions (I’m looking too at you Python)

  • AI tool OpenClaw wipes the inbox of Meta's AI Alignment director despite repeated commands to stop — executive had to manually terminate the AI to stop the bot from continuing to erase data

    Jump

  • LLM outputs not deterministic

    I think this needs to be called out much more. IT, by its very nature is meant to consist of repeatable, verifiable processes and outputs. That is how a lot of the trust around the process is built.

    Now you’re basically trying to tell people: Trust a system that can only reproduce the same results 98-99% of the time. For some that may be fine, but it’s going to become more of a problem as time goes on.

  • FedEx sues for refund of Trump tariffs, days after Supreme Court ruling

    Jump

  • It’s never going to be perfect. Good luck with that, but the question is “did you spend more than $1700 in tariffs?” I mean you’re welcome to try to sue every company and the government directly to get it back.

  • FedEx sues for refund of Trump tariffs, days after Supreme Court ruling

    Jump

  • Nope, which is why it should be a standard amount. For example, Illinois is suing for $1700/person regardless of what they spent. That’s what they calculated out was the average.

  • FedEx sues for refund of Trump tariffs, days after Supreme Court ruling

    Jump

  • Realistically since the American consumer ultimately paid it, it should be returned via a tax credit on our taxes. That was it doesn’t matter if you paid via higher prices, or flat out paid import fees. It goes back to the consumer.

  • Donald Trump's Parents

    Jump

  • Like mother, like son

  • Islamic police in Nigeria arrest nine Muslims for not fasting during Ramadan

    Jump

  • And sadly it’s not just isolated to Africa. Western countries like Australia and the US are doing similar things in the name of religion. It’s a global scourge.

  • Telegraph tracks down Lolita Express landing at an RAF base and asks how it got permission. Epstein: "it's true", Ghislaine: "Shit..."

    Jump

  • Normally there is never a valid reason for a civilian plane to land at a military base (except extreme emergency, etc.).

    This means that someone authorized it to land there. Random Staff Sergeant A or Lieutenant B has no authority to do that, which means it had to have come from someone higher.

    So it begs the question: Who and why?

  • Kim Jong Un re-appointed leader of North Korea's ruling party

    Jump

  • Oh I’m sorry… with 105% of party official votes this time?

  • Kim Jong Un re-appointed leader of North Korea's ruling party

    Jump

  • Was it with 105% of the vote this time?

    Affluenza is really the biggest driver between thinking the barrio/ghetto/slums is an "unsafe wasteland" vs people who are just trying to exist and survive in the framework they are given.

    Would you rather have hundreds of millions of dollars and be acutely aware of all the bad things going on, or a meager yet sustainable life and completely ignorant of everything.

    It still blows my mind how ubiquitous communication is now. I just had someone message me instantly from a ship in the Mediterranean, while I'm on a flight in the US.
