  • $1000/month? Really?

    Some exaggeration may have occurred.

    But yes, 10x increases from previous business to business prices have been common lately. I'm just waiting to see which direct to consumer service tried it first.

  • Keating replied, “You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way.” Self then adjourned the hearing.

    Good for him, standing up for a colleage and due process, too.

    If the government feels the need to recognize what's in our pants, the government needs reninded exactly where our boundaries lie.

    What's in my pants is whatever the fuck I tell them is in my pants.

  • "Dad, we talked about this. I do respect our heritage - but the Furry lifestyle isn't for me. I'm not going to the convention, Dad."

  • There's more remote work options for IT staff today than ever.

    Lots of us are working remote and wishing we could move to Hawaii.

  • I think they mean all Google docs gone unless we buy a $1,000.00 per month subscription, or something.

    We see that kind of massive price shift in business to business contracts all the time.

    Someone is bound to try it on regular consumers, and Google currently has the most leverage.

    In fairness to Google, they actually have better data export tools than most of their competitors... At least today.

    That said, not my prediction, I don't think it'll happen in ten years. I do think someone will try it. My money was on Evernote, but I think their best opportunity passed already.

  • No worries. Also I'm a little jealous of you, that today, for you, Tim Curry returned to life.

    That would brighten my day.

    I hope the rest of your day also is at least as good as learning Tim Curry is still alive.

  • That's a great detail!

  • ”"I’m not here to fight about bathrooms. I’m here to fight for Delawareans and to bring down costs facing families," she said."

    Fuck yeah. Rock on. I'm sorry she has to face this bullshit, but Delaware is lucky to have her.

  • Claudio Verequete lives about 200m from where the road will be. He used to make an income from harvesting açaí berries from trees that once occupied the space.

    "Everything was destroyed," he says, gesturing at the clearing.

    "Our harvest has already been cut down. We no longer have that income to support our family."

    He says he has received no compensation from the state government and is currently relying on savings.

    In case it's unclear that these people claiming to care about the climate are genuinely as bad as any cartoon villain out of Fern Gully.

    Edit: I wonder if we can get Tim Curry to record a public scolding of them. That would be a fitting publicity stunt to draw attention to this.

  • It feels like remote online conferencing should be mandatory for anyone claiming - during the meeting - to give a shit about the climate.

    This feels like a bare minimum guideline.

  • "Mom, I want Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 Remastered."

    "We have a skateboard game at home."

  • "Chief! It was a giant swarm of bees, chief! Would you believe it? A hundred giant bees, with automatic weapons!"

    "I find that hard to believe, Agent 86."

    "Would you believe a three very large spiders, armed with rifles?"

    "..."

    "Would you believe...a cricket with a derringer?"

  • And rumor is DOGE has lousy opsec. And I suspect DOGE won't be able to fix their opsec (after they start getting owned) because veteran engineers pay attention, and Musk seems incapable of loyalty.

  • We radiocarbon date things in "freedom years", which are normal years, but scaled to a Biblical young earth. (This is sarcasm... For now.)

    • As was said, it's hard to beat a Toyota Corolla.
    • Honda Accord is also right up there for simplicity, reliability and long life.
    • Hyundai also have a reputation for solid cars.
    • A Prius can be a great car, but is the opposite of simple to maintain.

    And honestly pretty much any modern car will last a very long time if you have a solid mechanic, and take their advice.

  • Neat. I've been holding out for a new higher quality retro emulator without sticks. The old games I want to play don't use sticks, and the sticks make it harder to carry in a pocket.
