Project 2025 is a report from a far right think tank, the Heritage Foundation that MAGA aligned groups are all pushing into the news cycle.

There are plenty of centrist, progressive, and/or left wing (the 3 camps that make up democrats) think thanks but those are 3 fairly different paths/goals compared to HF’s message of “lets make a white christian nationalist state.” So it’s easier to for them to build positive polling off the different arguments. The media also doesn’t give nearly the same airtime but extremists because they’re all driven by ratings/clicks.

And all the science I don’t understand.
Its just my job five days a week.

CBS laugh tracks are like nails on a blackboard to me now.

Palpatine would be a good comparison too, since your immune system will think the TB is dead while it’s actually just hidden and snacking on corpses… waiting for its time to pop up and make thing wheezy.

Lolcats. I even dabbled in lolcode for no good reason.

I took an Oxygen Not Included (pre Spaced Out) colony to 5000 cycles with almost no time warp. It was still going strong too, I just wanted to switch to the new (at the time) DLC.

The way the news has been going I wouldn’t be surprised if plastic is a candidate. After a little less than a century of rapid development in petrol-plastics we’re starting to figure out the long term effects. But the next 1000 generations may be dealing with the fallout.

If memory serves, 2010 ignited Jupiter by crashing Saturn into it. But you’d actually need about 250 Saturns (or 85 Jupiters) worth of hydrogen to get the job done. A lot of the moons would be within that new super gas giant’s roche limit even before fusion began.

I haven’t noticed this. I’ll keep my eyes peeled though. We’re both on tchncs so if it’s a replication thing we should both see it.

I use Alexandrite as my frontend if it turns out that it matters.

In the late 1990s I was at university using their OC-48 lines. So I had a share of a ~2GBit connection while most of the people were lucky to get 56k.

In the dorms, everyone was assigned an IP address but most people still didn’t have their own computers. So my roommate and I convinced a bunch of other people on our floor to give us their IPs - and our RA was also a Network admin, so he was able to facilitate. We ran a web server, forums, Quake and Team Fortress (1) servers (Clan Clam for folks that remember Quake Clans), and some very private file servers. All running on found hardware.

The speed was so fast compared to most folks that it was a bit like having a data related super power.

There are 3d models of the demon core, so one would make a plastic version of this game. It’d be missing the cool blue flash you get from winning, but its good to test these kinds of things before you dig into your plutonium stockpile.

I immediately thought of Meta, but it’s a vast tapestry of evil out there. Maybe I should aim for a Top 5 Desert Island Evil Media List. Or we could do something like a Letterman Top 10.

How long can one person avoid yard work? The answer will shock you.

I can’t blow bubbles in bubblegum

Using proper bubblegum or was it chewing gum? I’ve seen people make that mistake before. Including in an episode of an internationally popular TV show.

In the heat of the moment, Larry could only think to throw his dentures at the hungry rat.

Personally there were 3 key events

• May 31, 2023 is when the details of the API change surfaced and the snowball of opinion started rolling down hill.
• June 12: the blackout started and I moved to the Threadiverse.
• June 28? - July 1, Reddit started to force subs back online by any means necessary, which is what made me realize I wouldn’t be going back.

Why do you need a Reddit account? Deleted mine, noticed no difference.

There are a lot of Taco Bells on earth. That can be hard on Uranus, so it’s best to start with one and see how it goes.
