You only give a raise after exceeding expectations. We also never give exceeds expectations.

It’s not insane, just very classist

Perhaps a daisy wheel printer is an acceptable middle ground

At that point you put a fence around it and call it historically reenactment.

Almost everything tech bros say is to boost short term share prices. Any resemblance to the truth is coincidental.

Maybe the bubble is wrong

Hellhound of course

I’ve heard some stories about schools with zero tolerance. Bullying victims soon found out that you get equal punishment for defending themselves or for some serious violence. The logical response is to go full berserker mode.

It’s over of the few countries where you can get off the plane, go to the ATM and withdraw a few million in cash. 1 million VND is about 40 USD.

Now we just need to use the user information to check their net worth, and if it’s above a certain amount it needs to hover a quest marker above that person. I’m curious to see how long before privacy laws get stronger.

You can buy them already, but they’re at least 10 times as expensive as regular cars and you need a piloting license too. Meanwhile regular cars and the normal driving license are already getting pretty expensive for people.

Flying cars also need a runway, a heliport or a wide open space. eVTOLs and other flying cars are usually not small and need more space than a car for taking off or landing, especially in non-ideal weather.

I’m surprised it’s Astley and not Ghastly

Because people get suspicious when somebody is taking pictures of every stranger they come across, but people looking at passersby while wearing glasses is normal.

Schrodinger’s Immigrant: simultaneously kicking them all out of the country and inviting more of them in because corporate party contributors really like desperate low wage workers

They’re raising income taxes. I thought income tax was one of the easiest taxes to dodge. Rich people usually have capital gains, not income from work. And even then they can get loans instead of an income using their assets and loans are not taxed. Seems more like a symbolic gesture to appease the people.

And if AI work would be copyrighted by the “prompt artist” then all the artists whose work is in the training set can sue the prompter for profiting of their work without licensing fees. It would be a legal clusterfuck so it was pretty wise to side step the whole issue.

Ah, good ol’ music industry math. “1,000 people downloaded a picture that I created, and I wanted to charge $1,000 a piece, so I lost $1,000,000.” In reality of course charging $0.02 would’ve stopped most sales.

Far-right parties’ main goal is excluding people from society so they should be fully okay when they’re the ones being excluded.

This has an easy solution, just don’t transmit it to the network.

It’s the base load providers that don’t like this. Coal and nuclear don’t like to ramp down. They can’t shut down easily and their installation keeps costing money but stops bringing in money in that period. They’ll go complain to daddy government how unfair it is.

Until batteries start replacing them by being cheaper.

Meanwhile they’re looking at the Northern European Enclosure Dam, that would completely dam the North Sea. The battle continues.
