“Look, he said he knows where all the fruit bearing trees in this forest are. Not a lot of them, all of them. He pointed out a squirrel the other day and told it he was glad to see that it made it through the winter. I don’t know how he does it, but if he says we have to move because the squirrels are starting to move to new trees, who am I to argue? We move.”
“Datacenter Operations”. These are the people that bless the racks, perform the Ritual of the Wires, have access to the Room Of Windy Floors, and get to keep stacks of dead hard drives under their desks as footrests.
You don’t even need a degree, just show up to any data center with a vape and a hoodie and they’ll probably just let you in, especially if it’s third shift. Closest thing you’ll ever have to working in an isekai dungeon.
(I have nothing but respect for the datacenter denizens)
Us: Don’t give missiles to Russia.
Iran: Dafuq? Like we’re even frenemies, who the fuck…bitch you’re feeding that shit to Ukraine like it’s Christmas.
US: Fuck yeah I am, we’re building a pipeline, trucks are too slow, the WEAPONS must FLOW.
Now cut that shit out before I ask you twice.
Iraq: 💢

I bet there’s a whole database of borg zero-days that only captains are allowed to access, since using one means it’ll be patched right away.
The Cage, the original pilot, was filmed and screened in 1965. It was reworked into “Menagerie”, which contained a lot of the original footage, but aired in 1966.
So you’re saying the original timeline, well call it the Pike Prime timeline, is the real timeline, and that the show containing Kirk & Co, and everything from 66 onward, is fiction.
That’s a good head canon, I like that.
Putin’s even throwing his spy whales out of windows?
Oh sure, I was mostly being flippant. My response to the article is basically that billionaires losing billions is a good thing. I don’t feel optimistic enough to say we’ll get around to taxing them but yes, that would be ideal.
Venture Capital is probably the best way to drain the billionaires. Those billions in capital weren’t wasted, that money just went to pay people who do actual work for a living. What good is all that money doing just sitting in some hedge fund account?
He’s probably referring to some delusion he manifested in his own mind during a ministroke he had while pinching off a particularly fat McD’s turd.
I will not give him the benefit of the doubt here, you’re only assuming he’s referencing reality.
I stared at that thumbnail for a solid 10 seconds trying to figure out why there was a water cooled GPU in someone’s trunk
Best I can do is RINO. Last election I could’ve done “democRAT false flag operation”, but these kinds of mental gymnastics are a dime a dozen now
Eh, it’s probably good enough for this. Go for it.
Silicon Valley types failed to acclimate to more traditional corporate culture
Ford: We suck at software, hire different people to do it better.
Also Ford: The different people are doing things differently and my ancient management structure is scared and confused! Fire them!
I think DeSantis is aiming for 38 more and then he’ll be happy.
TEXAS IS TITS!!
TEXTITS!
TITSAS!!!
I imagine it works the way sovereign citizens think it does. The Federation maintains trade within itself and other entities. A kind of fungibility has been established to facilitate that trade. Those units of fungibility, or ‘credits’, are given to citizens when they need to engage in extra-federation trade. Every citizen is probably guaranteed some portion of the total fungible capacity of the Federation for personal use.
