I've only ever had to badge into places, never out.

All the wannabe crypto influencers were quiet on my feed for a while after prices crashed in late 2022. Gen ai bullshit could not have arrived at a better time for them. They all pivoted to being ai experts immediately.

Didn't he and the uncommitted delegates get kicked out? Unless he joined the clapping seals to cheer the genocide, what's the issue?

This is all to backfill unrealized losses banks were carrying that were responsiblish for the bank runs we saw last summer too right?

The children yearn to lie about the operational status of the frosty machine.

Have you considered it's only 2% inflation in this year of our lord 2024? I have no raise and I must scream.

The proliferation of android as a platform has made it too easy for these companies to shit out garbage iot devices that connect to the internet for reasons unintelligible even to God.

Days after the attack, in October 2022, Germany’s foreign secret service received a second tipoff about the Ukrainian plot from the CIA, which again passed on a report by the Dutch military intelligence agency MIVD. It offered a detailed account of the attack, including the type of boat used and the possible route taken by the crew, according to German and Dutch officials.

Oh ya the CIA totally didn't plan it. They just caught wind of it and asked for the plug to be pulled but only told foreign interference agencies afterwards.

The inflation is only 2% narrative is so frustrating. It's not like previous years' price hikes went away.

Damn, it really is all projection. I was wondering where the Chinese doping witch hunt had come from. I guess I have my answer now.

It's a comedy of errors for sure. I remember reading a while ago that the people with the skills and degrees to work these chip fab jobs are getting peeled off to just write javascript for the same or greater pay and a fraction of the effort too. You can't even just try to break these labor aristocrats because they will just write javascript instead. And the javascript developers shit out labor discipline software. So just like cops they get disproportionate pay to everyone around them for protecting capital.

I was sitting a few rows behind some rowdy British teens on holiday the other day and between skibbidi and the British slang, I understood none of what they had said. Is this what getting old feels like?

I hate javascript. I hate javascript. I hate javascript.

Javascript and mobile apps will not fix structural issues in society.

People who suggest otherwise should be conscripted to build public housing and throw eggs at nimbys at city council hearings.

Idk about stores of modern weapons, but a lot of retired stuff in warehouses are gone in a demonic iphone upgrade program at the public's expense where any piece of aged equipment was donated to make room in a warehouse for Raytheon's tank du jour.

Silly liberals, dudes on walls went out of fashion when the cannons became mainstream jajaja.

Speaking of cannons what's the artillery ratio between the two sides again?

Holy moly the amount of racism.

I'm surprised they're turning on him and raising the issue at all. He didn't seem substantially worse than his 2020 campaign run and Axios (I think) had already floated the "staffers privately tell us he's senile" piece earlier in his term but it didn't seem to stick. His current state can't be a surprise to power brokers so why hang him out to dry now?

I suspect they're trying to avoid a primary. The 2020 election showed the average democrat voter is too dumb to pick up on media hints to the insiders' favorite candidate and the average well-established democrat is too greedy and delusional of their own personal brand recognition to step aside. The pipeline of "chosen ones" that can be legitimized without much pushback at the convention seems empty.

The conventional wisdom is no caffeine after 4 but the half life is 4ish hours I remember reading somewhere. It's better to hard stop caffeine consumption before 2pm.

I think blue light also conflicts with your body's natural sleep priming so yeah cutting screentime before bed is a win or at the very least use the night mode or orange filter on your phone after sundown.

If your schedule is really bad, an acute solution is to hard reset by full commiting to going to bed at your new desired bedtime. Don't nap or anything that day if you can, and if your desired bedtime is too early you can try taking some melatonin. Don't use melatonin regularly though.

That's how I wrangle my sleep schedule back to a better baseline when it starts to drift towards later nights and waking up exhausted.

Hand wringing about the federal debt is how they gaslight you into signing off on dismantling regulatory apparatchik and the social safety nets.

Remember when they accidentally confirmed the mall in Kyiv that got shelled by evil Russians was actually a weapons depot when they reported on the TikToker across the street who was arrested by the SBU? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

These people will fly private to Davos of course, as a treat.

Pour one out for the landlords and comprador bribers 🤣

I think that's a talking point of the other duopoly party that the vassals don't pay their fair share to enrich Raytheon.

I hate this question so much. I wish it was illegal to ask. You have to give some vague bullshit or you might tick the interviewer off. They know your answer will be bullshit but will ask anyways. And then every now and again you get some lumpen bootlicker asshole who refuses to abide by the social contract and wants to know exactly why you are seeking a new job and won't accept the customary bullshit answer.

Why is this not 100% green wtf

Those hard working landlords ya know. Also acting like eminent domain doesn't exist in burger land lmfao

Maybe? They just like don't post about him at all anymore. They went from cooing and sharing articles about his policy goals full of excitement to just radio silence lmfao

The formerly exuberant Milei posters on my feed have gone silent so I assume it's going poorly.

It's incredibly cynical, bordering on satanic, to airdrop food in immediately after the bread massacre.

I was about to ask the same. Surprising to whom? The nafo bots?

Moderately funded jajajaja

Those people are mostly just butthurt they aren't the beneficiaries of such "cronyism" and think themselves smarter than everyone else, just less well connected. It's the reason all the ancaps in that hbo documentary with an alias go by John Galt.

It's part of a 10b5-1. Was it premeditated months in advance? Do they just need a quarterly hit of cash to make payments on their yachts? Who is to say?

"There were certainly things we could've done to test it and actually fire it. They would've been very time-consuming and very costly," Mike Hansen, the company's head of navigation systems, told Reuters in an interview on Saturday. "So that was a risk as a company that we acknowledged and took that risk."

What insane copium to post hoc justify not verifying your multimillion dollar machine works before crashing it.

The thing I think people don't think about is it's really expensive to change your manufacturing process. The transition overseas isn't just about labor costs, but because you are rebuilding the factory anyways it's a chance to switch over to a cheaper manufacturing method. You get what you pay for and cheaper methods tend to have cut corners. You can buy high end stuff from China, it's not like iphones are made there or anything..

There's a reactionary QBC youtuber, AvE who mostly disassembles power tools and examines the quality of construction, components, and manufacturing methods. He has a teardown of a "Juciero" the $1000 juicer with DRM which is how I found him. He whines about "Chinesium" in the Chinese manufactured tool brands but there's other "American made" tools on his channel using similar lower-end manufacturing techniques or cutting similar corners.

There's an interview with Vijay Prashad that comes to largely the same conclusion about superhero movies.

UNRWA is Hamas is a credible but unverifiable accusation? What's next? Bibi is Hamas?

Just casually duplicate this labor rq. Techbros really creating jobs for each other.

Don't forget how ableist they get if you disagree with them.
