Watch crypto miners will be trying to build LHCs in their yard with asinine electricity costs to make a few micrograms of gold.

It fucked them because it locked them into Harris, who was also a uniquely awful candidate. It screwed voters out of having a meaningful primary with real debate about issues.

Is this to me counteract the Migswitch specifically?

Seems like a load of crap either way.

It’s more like Advance Wars with individual characters instead of troop units.

You could try Animal Well. Dark yet pastel-oriented colorschemes. Minimal “combat” but more of a puzzle and exploration style of gameplay. More mysterious than scary. Mild peril. Not romantic in the slightest, but very original.

Back in 2017 there was also the framework of an agreement to have the US help develop and profit from gold and rare-earths in Afghanistan.

I’ll leave you to speculate how that turned out.

This place was skeevy as fuck (even by strip club standards) when I was there about 10 years back. One of the girls legit seemed to be having a mental episode and wasn’t making sense, claimed she knew me, and kept trying to talk to me. I left the club entirely after about 25 minutes.

Goddamn, the dudes who are the top 5 or so first round picks know they are going to shit-tier teams by definition. Imagine dropping to the 5th round and still going to the Browns.

That and there are second-order effects. If your business ordered a bunch of shit prior to all of this, and it’s now coming into port you may say “fuck it, send it back” or you may decide to accept it, eat the tariff, and preemptively increase your pricing on your future finished landed goods because you are now having to factor in pricing instability of the input components/materials.

Likewise, during the several months period of fluctuation, many businesses likely made a reasoned decision to stop ordering for the future because they don’t know if the market will tolerate them having to increase their prices by that much and they can’t afford to sit on inventory they will never sell. So even if the government declares “ha just kidding” and completely abandons tariffs today, there could be a period of 2-5 months where many products aren’t available because industries paused proactive ordering based on projected demand.

This is ironic because all the 40 year old chicks who are career users of FB since college, all cite the same justification for continuing to use it: “But all my photos and the current happenings of my friends”.

If you showed them epirical data that only 17% of what they consume on the platform is actually even tangentially related to their friends and family, maybe they’d finally decouple themselves from FB.

Russia isn’t negotiating in good faith. They find reasons to start/stop negotiations, they propose ceasefires while continuing to attack, etc. Basically they feel that time is on their side and they won’t have much to lose unless they are presented with real stakes. Difficult to do since neither the US or Europe wants a direct “hot” war with Russia, and meanwhile Putin doesn’t value human life. If he has to throw a couple hundred thousand more conscripts into the meatgrinder, that doesn’t bother him in the slightest.

I knew this was a fucked up industry when I heard they were successfully diversifying into women-centric gatcha games where the game is also centered on gooning over various character designs but the gatcha pulls correspond to specific romance scenes and interactions.

Japanese companies really have minmaxed exploiting every demographic. They have this garbage for the young people and pachinko parlors for old people and rural folks.

Sweet, looking forward to the FOSS app utilizing Perplexity API.

The most-aggressively short timelines don’t apply until 2029. Regardless, now is the time to get serious about automation. That is going to require vendors of a lot of off-the-shelf products to come up with better (or any) automation integrations for existing cert management systems or whatever the new standard becomes.

The current workflow many big orgs use is something like:

1. Poor bastard application engineer/support guy is forced to keep a spreadsheet for all the machines and URLs he “owns” and set 30-day reminders when they will expire,

2. manually generate CSRs,

3. reach out to some internal or 3rd party group who may ignore his request or fuck it up twice before giving him correct signed certs,

4. schedule and get approval for one or more “possible brief outage” maintenance windows because the software requires manually rebinding the new certs in some archaic way involving handjamming each cert into a web interface on a separate Windows box.

As the validity period shrinks and the number of environments the average production application uses grows, the concept of doing these processes manually becomes a total clusterfuck.

This discussion is both lit and bussin

Bad policy. Keep this shit out of my state.

AI can look at a bajillion examples of code and spit out its own derivative impersonation of that code.

AI isn’t good at doing a lot of other things software engineers actually do. It isn’t very good at attending meetings, gathering requirements, managing projects, writing documentation for highly-industry-specific products and features that have never existed before, working user tickets, etc.

Honestly I know the Deck can run recent and current AAA titles but I generally have had just as much fun playing low-demand games like Stardew, Dead Cells, Caveblazers, etc.

You can get Droidify and it provides a more pleasant visual experience.
