One would think that that an elderly judge would appreciate hand rail regulations.

Nobody forced them to make risky business decisions.

Exactly… you want to make a nearly risk free investment? Try a long term bank deposit or invest in government bonds.

Nah, they’re probably planning to do what Amazon did with their “Just Walk Out” stores… force children into mines and just claim it’s actually AI. As NFT’s, Cryptocurrency, and so many other hype tech fads have taught us: marketing is cheaper than development.

You want a nearly risk free investment, I suggest a high interest bank deposit. No one “deserves” a return on mass mortgage speculation.

Also, like as a joke, it’s just lazy. There are better and funnier ways to mock Trump and his allies. Going “her dur gayz” is hack.

I’m having the same issue with message/reply but otherwise it’s a great app.

It seems the way VC’s throw money at pure unadulterated hype, don’t count them out just yet. So long as you’re good at marketing, you don’t have to be good at development; you don’t have to have a good idea; you don’t have to have a product that does what you’ve promised, works or even exists… they’ll shower a literal pile of shit with money until it sparkles like a Faberge egg if you can only generate buzz.

Me: “Tennessee, thank God… oh and the delivery driver wasn’t killed, that’s good too.”

Okay, that makes sense. Was going to ask how proprietary/locked that charger system was as it seems to be the immerging standard.

I was wondering when someone was going to create a Fediverse platform like this. Figured it would be the folks at either PixelFed or Peertube. Can’t wait to try it out!

So… like Pornhub has done for years now?

The porn hasn’t been very good. I can get around dudes and chicks with like fourteen fingers, no toes, and nipples that hover over their skin… but I draw the line at the dirty talk being “I’m glad I could help you with that.”

Umm. Not really, it’s because Amtrak is involved now in Texas and the Build Back Better Act has sent money for several projects not just Houston to Dallas. Cali HSR, Las Vegas to LAX, Orlando to Tampa, Seatle-Tahcoma-Portland, and Atlanta to Charlotte all got funds. All these projects (with the exception of Cali) are using federal/private funds, so state governors can’t really pull the plug (Cali HSR is a constitutionally mandated project approved by the voters of the state… to use state funds).

That’s probably the thing conservatives are going to go after when they’re done banning birth control medication.

Didn’t someone have a picture of a Tesla in the wild with a bumper sticker that read something like: “I bought this before I knew Elon was a complete idiot.”

Her district is germandered at like +25 Republican… she’s going no where. But also, having the Republicans do a ton of party infighting during an election year is great if you don’t like them. Makes them less appealing overall to voters. Let them flight.

An election year is a great time to blow up the only part of the government your party controls… I say let them flight.

Needs exactly four Republicans House Reps to do what I could only describe as the funniest thing ever.

Basically, the idea is to build orbital solar farms (where is always sunny), then beam the energy produced back to the ground with microwave transmitters and ground recievers. It’s technically feasible, unlike fusion we have all the technology needed to do it right now. However, it’s cost and resource prohibitive. The US government studied building such a system in the 1970-80’s after the energy crisis. We could do it, but building it would take a generation to get running and about double the US’s current military annual budget. Launch costs are coming down since then, but the industrialization of space and the moon will take generations and would need to be an international effort to have any chance of success.
