Do you like all the trek? I thought Lower Decks and Discovery both started great but kind of fell off. I heard Picard was good.

This meme gets funnier and funnier every time I read it!

Crypto enthusiasts don’t really care or understand decentralization. If you talk to crypto bros you will realize pretty quickly that a lot of them are very very low IQ morons.

I was at an event and met a crypto bro. He tried to explain to a group of us that btc is like moss and the world is the forest. A couple people legitimately “got it” and began to get excited about crypto.

Alabamans want their society to be this fucked up. I’m happy they are allowed to do this to themselves. “never interrupt your opponent when they are making a mistake” and what not.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again. This is democracy in action. Her community and loved ones want their society to be that way. If that’s what they want, well, it sure doesn’t affect me.

Or the region could destabilize and the US has diplomatic cover to limit their hypothetical response to a more defensive set of operations.

This doesn’t actually answer the question.

Well, if your argument is: “any company that becomes a monopoly will abuse monopoly power”, then sure I agree with you. You got me there!

My argument is: “given a reliable financial alternative to advertising, a company will be able to resist enshitification for a long time, as long as there is no absolute tyrannical monopoly.”

I assumed the last part was implied and I’m sorry for the confusion!

You have to pay for kagi so they are not incentivized to serve ads. They are incentivized to give you a good set of search results so you keep paying.

Agreed 💯. This is democracy in action. In a way, I’m happy that Alabama is listening to the desires of its citizens. If they don’t want maternity wards then that’s fine with me.

If voyager went sublight they could time dilate themselves into the future. Idk why I just realized this.

Eh jk I guess they’re too far away anyway. Any Earth they would recognize is gone.

This is standard. You always get rid of the upper management. You give them a lot of money and a round of applause and then you put your own people in. Everyone at the top will be Microsoft.

Can you imagine the CIA hunting down climate terrorists the same way Mossad hunts down Nazis in South America?

Can you follow rss feeds on the fediverse?

I named my cat Mariner because of the character. She’s actually my favorite star trek character of all time.

In order to grow a chat app you need a consistent and stable interface over a long period of time. It can’t have too much bullshit in it either.

In order to grow your career at Google you need to build ridiculous shit and then leave once you get your promo. Entire departments get reorged so someone can hit their people manager quota.

Product groups, business units, “orgs”, VPs, SVPs, it’s all just a game and “everyone’s playing except you.” This is why Google kills shit. Because Google rewards behavior that results in killing shit.

Haha what the fuck? I had no idea Canada had politicians like that.

Telemetry, in the context of software development and UX design, is either a decision by the misinformed or just an excuse to save costs by axing the Windows QA department.

That’s very silly. That’s actually such a ridiculous opinion I’m pretty sure you’ve left out some assumption that would make it make sense.

If you have ever said “Master Slave” architecture you are a racist and every single Black person in earshot had a panic attack. At least, that’s what we’re led to believe.
