Some people don't like the '59, but im here to tell you they're wrong. That thing is a masterpiece.

If nothing else, it would be hard to do worse than the ‘90s version.

I'm gonna have to rewatch the 1999 movie now because I remember liking it a lot back then.

This may not fit perfectly into the that category but i think it's cool how Lazarus Jones exists in the media in some capacity in most of the GTA games. One of the best threads of continuity throughout the series.

Can't wait to waste 100 hours of my life trying to reach the top of this trackmania map

A message from the government of Alberta

Welp. It was nice to feel some hope for a couple of weeks. I'll cherish the memories. I don't think I'll be feeling that emotion again for a very long time.

I'd rather have a New Deal 2

This is Danielle Smith we're talking about. Corruption should be taken for granted. Attempting to use her position to install her husband as the province’s preeminent rail tycoon is pretty much exactly on brand.

Rauschenberg's white painting was the OG placebo meme.

And the ones from China still cost less after the 100% tariff

Not just mp3, all lossy audio formats use psychoacoustic analysis. That's how they figure out which data to throw out.

The one on the left is definitely more haunted, though.

I kinda have to agree with Singh on this one. It's hard to see this move as anything other than anti-worker

I don't really have a problem with a certain amount of protectionism as a concept, but Canada has a long history of granting special privileges to specific companies in key industries, then sitting back while those powers are used to mercilessly abuse consumers. I'm not super confident this is going to be any different.

Not sure if sarcasm or actual disinformation. You're not supposed to trust the aur, that's kinda the whole point of it. The build scripts are transparent enough to allow users to manage their own risk, and at no point does building a package require root access.

So probably not tomorrow.

Definitely the day after tomorrow.

Jeff Jackson was adored by oilers fans for all of 6 weeks. I hope he enjoyed it. Now he should probably consider wearing a disguise when he goes outside.

All he had to do was check social media 1 time. Just hold his breath and listen for 1 second and he would've heard the chorus of "NOT STAN BOWMAN" reverberating around oil country.

MF better not act surprised when a mountain of pig shit appears on his front lawn.

Probably have a few cards running the displays and the rest of them mining some sphere-themed memecoin

That's an interesting comparison and something I've wondered about quite a bit. I would be surprised if machine drivers were not categorically safer than human ones, and if safety is (rightly) a priority in the cost-benefit analysis of driverless car adoption, then it's hard to imagine not concluding that we ought to proceed in that direction.

But I think this specific incident illustrates very well that the human vs. machine driver debate is tragically myopic. If an infallible machine driver adhering perfectly to traffic laws is empowered to accelerate from a standstill directly into a violent collision with a pedestrian, then maybe it doesn't matter how "safe" the driver is. I take it as evidence that car travel the way we have it set up is inherently unsafe. Our traffic laws emphasize the convenience of car traffic above everything else -- including safety -- and only really serve to shift blame when something goes wrong. Despite its certainty, there is very little builtin allowance for human error aside from the begrudging mercy of other parties.

To be fair, human drivers are an unmitigated disaster which we really need to do something about, but I think if we're going to go through the messy process of reforming how we think about cars, we might as well go farther than a marginal improvement. We could solve the underlying problem and abolish the institution of car dependency altogether, for instance. Otherwise it just amounts to slapping a futuristic band-aid on a set of social and economic issues that will continue to cause unimaginable harm.

This doesn't seem that complex to me. If there is a pedestrian in front of your car when the light turns green, you wait. Pretty fucking simple. This isn't some offshoot of the trolley problem where an incident was unavoidable. The car made the active decision to proceed when it was not safe to do so.

Why have we programmed our self-driving cars to emulate the psychotic behaviour of a typical road ragin' car-brained human? Isn't that the problem these projects should be trying to solve?

What this story reveals is the stunning level of ignorance amongst Americans at large. This is a bona fide fascist manifesto, published by the handlers of the current leading presidential candidate, over a year ago. Nothing rattles me to my core quite like being confronted by the harsh reality that a lot of people out there are just going about their lives like everything is fine.

These are the people we need to organize with in order to ― at this point ― basically survive, so I'm very glad something was able to spur them into some level of action before election day.

That said, and please excuse the momentary lapse into doomerism, but if we have to rely on Hollywood and celebrity culture to bring something of this magnitude into public awareness, we might be more thoroughly cooked than it was previously thought to be possible.

I guess Florida ran out of Carl Hiaasen YA protagonists to keep that shit at bay.

Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I'm gonna be pretty upset.

You'll want to create a network route that sends LAN traffic through the unencrypted interface.

sudo ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0

Is an example of how to do that, but you need to replace the ip address and eth0 with your actual network address and device name.

Username checks out

No, you would not pay $333k in taxes. You would add $333k to your taxable income for the year, and then pay regular tax rates on your total income.

If you made $500k in capital gains and had no other income that year, then by extremely rough estimation (I'm too lazy to pull out a calculator to get the exact figure) you would only be paying somewhere in the ballpark of $60k in federal taxes, then another $20k-$30k based on what province you live in. All things considered, that's like a 17% effective rate, which is too damn low if you ask me.

And that's only on amounts greater than $250k. So anyone this change actually affects is going to be fine. The people complaining about it are straight up lying.

A really common issue with sway is that it doesn't run as a login shell, so none of your .profile or other environment settings get sourced when you login. I think that might be the problem here.

Try closing your sway session, then login to a tty and run sway. If the qt themes work properly then it's definitely an environment issue.

Points are completely invisible in list view.

That's not really a fair comparison. Robber barons got to build statues and skyscrapers as testaments to their own vanity, meanwhile recorded music was still in the process of being invented. Even so, I'll make the point that names like Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, and Tchaikovsky are equally as recognizable.

Definitely looks like the AI has been sending her transcripts of the vacation it's been attending with her family.

Fellow Arch user here (btw). It's exactly the same as building AUR packages. Clone a git repo containing a PKGBUILD, use makepkg to build it, and pacman to install it. The nice thing is you can host a repo of your built packages and install them on other systems really easily. The big downside is that dependency management is not automated, so it will take some time and annoyance to map out what packages you need to build and in what order, if you want a fully source-bootstrapped system.

I already don't trust AI, there's no way I'd want it to be the arbiter of potentially critical job-related information in a workplace. For probably less money than licensing and running an AI, a company could just hire a stenographer to sit in meetings all day, take notes, and send those notes to concerned parties. Better yet, why not get certain people to send info directly via email, instead of scheduling a bunch a pointless meetings. How's that for innovation

It doesn't sound like the whole mall is getting shut down, I think it's just a few specific stores and I assume it's due to some long-deferred maintenance issues in a certain section of the building.

Interestingly, checking the zoning map reveals that this area is already zoned for mixed use, so redevelopment isn't too far off anyway. As long as they don't spring for yet another seniors' living block, it will be an upgrade for sure.

Flanagan is the one who called the police and deserves all the vitriol he's getting for it. I think it's also important to remember that the President is appointed by, and reports to the Board of Governors, who have a similarly ghoulish track record over the past 5 years. The top brass of this institution is all rotten and is only getting worse by the day.

I think this is a good enough reason to actually put in some effort to phase out ipv4 and dhcp. There shouldn't be a way for some random node on the network to tell my node what device to route traffic over. Stateless ipv6 for the win.

Banks having "sound" balance sheets while losing actual boatloads of money to sub-prime lending makes me a little nervous, having lived through the year 2008 and all.

She zeroed in on journalism schools and her thoughts that not enough conservative journalists and commentators have come out of those programs.

That has nothing to do with federal funding and everything to do with the current version of conservatism being completely idiotic.

Did nobody else's CS department require a bunch of linear algebra courses? A vector is an element of vector space.

Magpies are the bird equivalent of that person everyone thinks is hot as long as they don't say anything
