that anyone thinks there's anything more to Facebook's ongoing valuation beyond vibes and obfuscation goes to show just how utterly terrible Elon is at doing the same thing.

Bezos sure, Amazon actually does stuff. Zuck's based no actual reliable information about any aspect of the core things that the companies do in order to make a profit (use stats, accurate advertising info, etc). He bounces from one tech fad to another like a ping pong ball in a clothes dryer.

Hell it predates that, there were instances of 'We will go and start our own home that we can run according to our ideals... and we'll farm or smth i guess??' at least going back to the great awakening in the 1830s. and most of those collapsed similarly. Some did turn into Mormonism or Oneida.

You should check on them, especially the Color Classic. They had batteries for the clock that, unless removed, 100% have exploded and leaked acid on the motherboard.

And further, that the Aliens did not know that the particular Mac being used to hack them was prone to massive battery explosions.

It is shocking the extent to which people have memory-holed Harris' previous performance. They lockered her within the first year of the administration because of her absolute inability to perform outside of situations with a 110% friendly and supportive audience. People have been allowed to forget

A friend of mine about twenty years back told me about his job at the time, which was to call and check references on applicant resumes. He'd show up each day, approve all of them and then dick around on the internet until quitting time.

Jody Allen wanted to dump all of it and shared none of Paul's interests or desires. Nobody had the immense amount of money it takes to continue it in the state that Paul Allen kept it.
SDF.org stepped up and is trying to carry on the legacy of LCM with the ICM. I'm a member of both. icm.museum

Can't imagine that he'd do damage like Reagan but Reagan's damage came mostly from the people he appointed and had around him. And Biden hasn't really set himself up for that, unless by damage we mean more disappointment.

It's wild how DVD/Blu Ray and physical ownership as a presumption has fallen by the wayside under the assumption that you can always find a stream source. Over the last few years of fragmented streaming I've heard so many people lamenting how much they waste monthly on it. More than cable now.

Before COVID there was no way to do a grocery run without having to overhear at least two loud conversations. I hadn't connected it with reality TV people using speakerphones all the time though.

It feels like it's both too broad and too narrow, like if it was just about how much TV sucked at the time then it could be tightened up. The net being cast is too big. I guess if the intended audience is younger people who didn't really 'live' it the way we did and are missing the forest/trees.

Nobody believed me back when Hillary ran in '08 (or in '16) that this was the case. I forget the order but her Senate opponents were 'any female republican' and 'guy who beat his girlfriend in public'. Winning any office in NY basically means you will never succeed anywhere else.

Lots of the calls are not actually coming from within the US, which is part of why they spoof. I was getting voice mails in chinese for years from 'local' area code numbers.

I still get calls once or twice a year from actual people who got a spoofed call that showed my number, and thought it was a real call. It's always amiable but also always weird.

They still have them on some phones, usually for some reason 'budget' android phones. Universal remote apps aren't as useful now though since all the public tvs are the cheapest off-brand possible.

Yeah but that's absolutely what the Israeli right wing wants. They surely realized decades ago that they can claim to represent all Jews, piss off every moral person on the planet and thereby convince more and more Jewish people that they're in danger and should move to Israel.
