There is a statistically significant increase in deaths when the time change occurs. This proves that it is not simple for at least some people.

If you want to appeal to technology then go all the way! Propose using hours from sunrise at your location for daily activities, plus a universal time constant which applies even on other planets. You can calculate what the time is anywhere from your smartphone, right?

Come on guys, this is your moment! Come tell us how everything isn't a conspiracy, and the corporations aren't all out to get us!

This is how businesspeople behave all the time. Virtually all of them see us as a lesser species to be manipulated and milked for profit. Advertising is manipulation of your emotional state to cause you to make decisions you'll regret. The whole business world runs on gaslighting you, the only difference between this and that is degree. It's a war for your wallet, and your security and sanity are the casualties.

If you don't buy a racing car Porsche is middling at best without any luxury features other than a vroom vroom noise.

I see you have no idea what the top end of their catalogue looks like, but still want to flap your yap as if you had anything relevant to say.

I'm sad for you that you've not experienced luxury to the point where you can't even identify what it is.

I'm sad for you that you're suck a clown-assed cuck for the wealthy. You constantly bend over and spread for anyone in a position of authority because you're easily impressed by power. You're never going to understand the kind of harm you do by being an enabler for the worst people.

It looks good, it works well, and Claude produced an SBOM and a security audit.

Since Claude is not a human, Claude cannot sign off on a security audit.

If a human signed off on Claude's security audit without verifying it themselves, they deserve exactly what they're going to get.

This is the cycle of capitalism.

I think we've all seen that script about hard times creating strong men creating good times creating weak men. What the nitwits who think it's the ultimate aphorism don't understand is a) what either of those words mean or b) that this applies just as much to nepo babies like the CEOs they worship.

Almost nothing on Wikipedia is true, but all of it is "verifiable" in that there's at least one published source making the claim. Even if 99.9% of all other sources say the opposite.

(The Haka is not, for example, a war chant. Which is attested to, but because it's claimed to be online, it is "verifiable".)

Comment Wikipedia has a vast number of errors. (Score 1) 59

The number of errors is huge, the number of "official editors" who know anything about the subject is extremely small, and this has always been the case. This is why nobody reputable cites Wikipedia. Wikipedia is where you go to find out what is potentially interesting, but you ALWAYS obtain the facts from elsewhere, if you've any sense.

Apple sells luxury products. Who cares if the polishing cloth is $19? Wait till you see how much Porsche charges.

Porsche only sells luxury products, though they've occasionally flirted with lesser machines they're above that now, and their highest end vehicles are among the very best in the world. Apple sells everything from mass market up to medium expensive, but if you want the most powerful machine in the fanciest case, Apple has absolutely nothing for you. They are not even vaguely in the running, they aren't anywhere near it, they can't even see it from where they are.

There was always zero chance of Hamas not attacking. It's all they ever think about.

Hamas didn't even exist until after decades of colonial violence. They didn't spring up out of nowhere. Don't talk about thinking until you try doing some. Or would you just bend over under the same circumstances?
