Frankly I’ve always thought the concept of military bases on foreign soil was creepy at best. And it’s hilarious how many people welcome it and the. Freak out when Saudi Arabia is looking at a base in the US. Now you know how it feels.

I’m on COBRA and almost switched to the marketplace because it’s so expensive, but seeing what 2026 premiums are it’s actually cheaper for me to stay on COBRA. I never thought I’d utter the words “cheaper” and “COBRA” in the same sentence.


I wish someone would start talking directly to him in such a way it’s obvious he’s not responding. Or maybe have Obama come in and laugh at him like he did that one guy sleeping on the subway.


IBM is in the business of consulting. They don’t want their business model getting usurped. Imagine if everyone had access to a bot that could do IBMs job.
I don’t like AI, but this is one reason I can see him saying that.


The cynic in me says this is an attempt to force private keys in-country and Swiss Datacenters which would then be subject to their laws and could be easier subpoenaed
X and Y are on the same plane in both examples.


Saw a guy on the SF Muni simultaneously solving two Rubik’s cubes, one in each hand. By the time he got off at the next station he was done with both of them.


So it sounds like the issue is with the Taxi drivers and contractors trying to game the system, and rather than go after them, they’re taking it out on the asylum seekers.
Why don’t they just get charge normally and then submit for reimbursement? That way they’ll look no different than a normal fare to the taxi driver.


I mean judo is the art of folding clothes while people are still wearing them, why not wash them first.
Hey, I grew up in the 90s. That shit still rocks.


I always thought that the municipality should own the last mile. FTTP for every unit, then the ISPs could run their lines to a local POP and just cross-connect to the house, apartment or whatever that wants their services. That way it would reduce the infrastructure that an ISP needs and also increases the available choices for a customer.
Payment for the municipal last mile could either be leveraged via your taxes or a fee that is paid by the ISP (which inevitably would be paid by the customer anyway)


Won’t that just increase the meat usage for the meat grinder?


I’m actually of the opinion that Americans are stupidly selfish because they’ve never had to go through the unifying thread of war and mass destruction on their country. They’ve never endured a community/county level hardship. The Pandemic was close but even then it wasn’t the visceral, visible destruction.


Alamo Drafthouse solves issues with 3-5. Also you can buy advance tickets at the box office and skip the convenience fees. So basically you’re left with “high prices for matinees”. I don’t know if you consider $10 high or not but that’s their price.
Basically it’s the experience of which chain you go to. It’s not that cinema is dead, just that places like AMC and Regal don’t give a fuck anymore.


The way they keep voting, I question that at times.


It’s the latter. Just magically the 8 that are retiring or aren’t up for reelection just manically all got together at the same time to do this? Right…


This is seriously “let them eat cake” levels of maliciousness and the people are too fucking stupid to do anything about it. I thought I had become jaded about things but now I’m just flabbergasted. Propaganda really fucking worked better than anything has in human history.
“Are you guys still talking about that?”
