Stock holders demand infinite growth. If the management doesn’t make money, they put in place new management. A company is only worth the value of the next stock buyback or dividend. It’s baked into the structure of corporations, especially publicly-owned corporations.

Desperate Donald is not going to be subtle about his demands.

The Jewish heart doesn’t have enough arterial plaque from the brisket, the kishka, the schmaltz…

Trump will be asking to duel with pistols next, except only he gets bullets.

My guess is Intel’s management is full of inflexible dead weight that doesn’t want to adapt to the new reality that PCs are only going to become less and less relevant as a computing model. Like other companies that had established cash-cow businesses like Sears with its mail-order catalog, Kodak with film, Motorola with analog mobile phones, etc., current management doesn’t want to jeopardize their positions by allowing a new business to dominate, and so the company is doomed to a slow death.

I was thinking of Matt Gaetz but yes there are many similar Republicans. And yes, I was setting up the rule of threes.

When Martin Scorsese said “Marvel Movies Aren’t Cinema.” He’s right. Yes, it’s a motion picture, and it’s entertainment. But superhero movies are a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, but in the end signifying nothing. They have plastic, unrelateable characters that are there solely to be cheered and booed with some pseudoscientific mysterious nonsense that stands in for the gods and devils of mythology. If CG wasn’t used to produce mind-numbing effects, the movies would look ridiculous and absurd. At least some older movies (like Superman I and II in the '70s) had Superman learn about the limits of his power and his ability to be a hero.

The same problem is with Star Trek. The TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY were about the characters and ideas. If the story is too tied up in the treknobabble or speculative technology, it becomes boring. It’s about working together and growing from experience. Once it became about battles, speculative technology, petty squabbles and soap opera dynamics between characters, it became boring and unexceptional, just another expensive mediocre spectacle.

He could have named it “Sic Semper SCOTUS.”

How about E PLURIBUS UNUM ? Out of many, one. A good motto for a nation of people, and federated states, working together?

There’s a tiny creature that consumes much more CO2, cyanobacteria. Trees provide windbreaks, shade, and habitats, but cyanobacteria are the OG carbon sequesters.

I think with all the footage of Trump, and his shallow personality, an AI will be trained to impersonate him and we’ll never be rid of him. I’m sure techbros are working on their animatronic Trump right now.

Burdens shared are often easier to bear than burdens borne alone.

Ah, the “there is no such thing as altruism” argument. But perhaps reward and benefit transcends a single individual:

Don’t hold your breath.

Tin whiskers usually don’t occur with most solders, are solders are formulated to prevent them. Perhaps this is defective solder, or there was a high thermal gradient, or repeated heat cycling has fractionated the alloy?

The GPIO engine is a simple state machine that can be programmed to implement high-speed data transfer, digital video output, and many other purposes. It is one of the best and most innovative features on the Pico.

You have great consummate V’s!

It’s going to be like hypnosis. “When you wake up, I’ll say the magic word Abracadabra, and you will believe you are a chicken and cluck while waving your wings.”

Maybe the Sikh said the prayer to deliberately provoke the reaction to show the Republican’s hate, as if it wasn’t already understood.

Mental compartmentalization is a real thing.
