What if it’s the boss, and you’re home, off the clock? Fuck 'em.

Republicans: “They just want to dress up as the opposite gender and use the bathrooms to sexually abuse and exploit people!”

Also Republicans:

C and assembly programmers: first time?

It’s full of “communists” that blindly excuse every damn thing that states like China and Russia do just because they dress themselves in red, or used to, and oppose everything western in an attempt to be “anti-imperialist”, ignoring what Russia is doing to Ukraine at this very moment. Hypocrites and dogmatic ideologues who can’t see nuance in anything.

Thank you. Needed that today.

USPS is required to deliver to every address in the country. If this goes through, it will be like the ISPs, and people in areas where mail delivery doesn’t turn a profit will get screwed. There are people out there using USPS for critical things like delivery of medical equipment or supplies.

We aren’t that far off from everyone’s clothes looking like NASCAR suits like in Idiocracy.

Problem is there is no telling what kind of backend microservices a website may be using unless you’re literally a developer of the website. There are so many things AWS does besides just web hosting. You might be able to tell, for example, that some http server is using Apache or Nginx software, but there’s no way to tell how the backend database or authentication systems do their thing.

It’s really not that hard to boycott Amazon, at least their store. There’s an entire Internet full of other shopping sites available. AWS is a different story though, since a huge chunk of the Internet runs on it and it’s not easy to tell which online services use it.

So we have the legendaries:

P51 Mustang

F14 Tomcat

F22 Raptor

A10 Warthog

F117 Nighthawk

SR71 Blackbird

And then:

F47 Trump? 🤢🤮🤮🤮

It’s gonna suck seeing that in aviation history books.

the voice of Discord in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (2011–2019).

Holy shit how did I not put it together when I thought that voice sounded familiar?

Actually, my distaste for Big Tech is nothing new. It’s been building for decades.

First, little stuff like the inkjet printer that you invited into your house that claims to need, “Just a little more cyan, bro. I’ll print your black and white page after I get my cyan. Come on, bro.”

That’s because it needs to print the tracking dots on every page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots

It’s also because we started doing shit like using JS in places it really shouldn’t belong. Half the programs on my PC are just webapps running in a sandbox environment, instead of using systems languages like C/C++ directly like was the case 15-20 years ago. Abstractions on top of abstractions on top of abstractions. JS was fine for embellishing elements of a web site and facilitating AJAX, it should have never been turned into an app language.

That’d be like if interpreted BASIC was taken seriously in the 80s as more than just a toy and the majority of popular software was written in it. We’d rightfully question WTF society was thinking.

Einstein: “E = mc^2! We can power our shit cleanly for cheap for thousands of years!”

Humans: “Hehehehe critical mass go boom!”

Plex, Plex, Plex, and Plex?
