Easy enough to do with PowerShell and just leaving the box running.

Yeah man, that Thomas Jefferson guy was a real unhinged fuckwad.

What country before ever existed a century & a half without a rebellion? & what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.

Most people with jobs do have to open office documents frequently.

I work in IT and hit Spam on everything I perceive as spam.

Poison all the data and fuck spammers straight to hell, tyvm.

Supposedly they have experts and think tanks at their disposal to help them in these sorts of endeavours, for what?

Experts aren’t hired to craft or guide legislation. They’re hired to give a pathway to a destination.

In other words, politicians already know what they want and what they’re going to do, they need a way to make it accepted by society and to force corporations to play ball. “Experts” and “think tanks” will always align with that agenda.

Stupid woke coral is just trying to interfere with the election season! Of course it happened in Florida, wake up sheeple!

That’s…worse in a lot of ways. Mercury compounds are way way fucking bad and are even more dangerous than “just” straight elemental mercury.

Typically as a vapor, even. And it has a fairly low vapor pressure for a liquid. Not even that much vapor is needed.

It’s an immense amount of liquid mercury - especially since it probably had organic compounds in it too. Bioavailable mercury is truly fucked stuff, and those responsible for this should live the rest of their lives in a chemical shed.

“We gotta cool the oceans down, that’s why I support nuking them!”

-Coming soon from the party that suggested nuking hurricanes

“We had authors and artists, but AI is so much more efficient they’re unnecessary.”

LLMs are coming for artistic and creative functions first. Is human creativity and artistry unnecessary?

Historically automation was on rote/repetitive tasks. This is a bit different.

So…Biden castrated the railroad union and it’s now functionally pointless. Any union that cannot strike or perform its own negotiations is a paper tiger.

It’s not better if your master stops his friend from beating you and throws a scrap from the table. All he did was remind the unions and employees who the master is. Next time they’ll be just as dependent, if not more so, on government intervention.

Railroads now know they never have to negotiate again.

Who, other than a kid in school, would willingly spend time with someone who “holds shit over your head”?

When that person is your parent. We don’t all get to choose nice and supporting families.

My mother would do that. I don’t tell her anything beyond how the weather is anymore.

Is something wrong with Gorillaz now? Demon Days was the shit.

I don’t even know if it’s technically copyright since if you’re not sharing it you’re not infringing on their market, marketing, or product.

Japan is almost uniquely bad though. A super aged population and a society that values conformance over anything else results in agonizingly slow and absurd government reactions.

They need 4 committee meetings each morning just to drink tea: one for to pick the teams, one team meeting to pick the tea, and another team meeting to pick the cup. There’s a final meeting at the end to discuss the costs associated with the tea and how to more properly distribute it according to rank and social standing, as one does.

They don’t need to sell to realize gains - they take out loans against the stock value from banks for almost no interest. If they choose to, they could get large amounts of that paper gain in liquid cash through just a handful of steps.

*billionaires.

There are millionaires just from buying a house for $150k in the right city in the 90s. Doesn’t make them evil.

4chan doesn’t fuck with animal abusers. They fuck their lives up and doxx them.

Cows can be raped?

Do we send cow rapists to cow jail? If a cow is in a field with a bull, do we arrest the bull pre- or post- mount?

Squeeze the existing users for cash.

The enterprises will just pay it. It’ll be cheaper than a migration for critical servers.

Corps pull the same gameplay each time:

1. Buy product
2. Jack prices to the roof
3. Kill R&D and enshittify support to minimize cost
4. Extract profit until other products make a higher profit margin
5. Shutdown support and repeat with a new product
