We can thus estimate that this life strategy will work for 0.0125% of people. What a massive trend!

Given how whiny are the Maggots, the talking head at the head of DoD is not wrong to worry about the testosterone level of his flock.

While you are correct about the Daily Telegraph, it has (without changing a thing) turned into one of the most reliable news sources on the internet, especially when not talking about the UK. Because most people get their news from Facebook or Twitter or some other ridiculous source.

It's illuminating that they designed, built, and prepared to sell them, and only then did they stop to think about the privacy implications.

"They were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

It's like building a powerful, innovative new type of gun and only then asking, "Hey, what do you think would happen if you shot someone with this thing?"

Dedicated to keeping him from making decisions. I used to see that with IT where you would have an owner who is a complete moron so you would have all sorts of little IT things designed to make the owner feel like they were doing stuff when they weren't. Like fake copies of databases for them to pour over when they were bored.

Basically if you're going to have a mad emperor you need to corral them. Personally I think just not having emperors would be a better solution.

Was the best investment Elon Musk ever made in his entire life.

Whataboutism.

Means the ability to consistently supply power to the grid and meet everyone's needs. Like everything in the English language the term gets used for different things. Although I haven't heard it used as requiring 95% of time before. Maybe if you're talking about a single means of power generation with no storage...

Doesn't matter. Wind and solar can provide base load. They do need a little bit of battery here and there but not all that much. Because when the sun is down the turbines are still spinning.

You're contradicting yourself in that first sentence. The thought has crossed my mind that Japan does have plenty of land for wind and solar I just don't think anyone has done the math. But if that's the case nuclear is basically worthless except for a handful of military applications.

It allows you to Levy fines and collect them. If people don't pay the fines you arrest them and make a lot of money locking them up. If they do pay the fines then if you're a rich asshole you can cut your taxes while maintaining government services you depend on.

We have been cutting taxes on the wealthy non-stop since Ronald Reagan. Cities are starting to run out of money to run the police to protect the wealthy. We have been covering that up by robbing Peter to pay Paul taking money from one state and giving it to another so that they can fund their police. We have cut taxes now so much that even that system is breaking down.

So if you are working 60 hours a week because you're underpaid and too tired to cut your lawn or paint your house or you can't afford to do author of them and you certainly can't afford to pay somebody else to do it then you are going to pay a defacto tax on that. Then you're going to work more hours at your shit job and maybe pick up a second or third shit job so that you can pay those fines and lather rinse and repeat...

It's basically a sign of our civilization collapsing.

It's a scam from the plastic industry. So there isn't a lot of actual value sorting garbage.

Drought because we broke the water cycle. Drought causes fires.

What pisses me off is all the old farts voting Republican or whatever the fuck your local equivalent is who enjoyed a period of time when water was plentiful and electricity cheap and now everything is falling apart because the environment is collapsing and instead of learning from that they just keep pulling the ladder up behind them. More right wing politics and more expensive dirty energy that we have to get into wars for.

But at least the 34 trans athletes in this country of 340 million people can't play in sports so there's that... Got to have your priorities. Good old ethics in games journalism. Just ask Jeffrey Epstein. Or was it heavy metal music? I don't know what's the current moral panic that has right-wing voters in a tizzy?

Old people never learn because they never had to learn. Everything was handed to them on a silver platter. And absolutely nothing pisses them off more than pointing that out. I remember Obama briefly suggesting that people had had assistance from the government to achieve things and it almost ending his campaign. He was smart enough to drop it though. American exceptionalism is a blight on humanity.

How do you stage controlled burns in an area where the nearest road is hundreds of miles away?

Right now, if you want to have cookies preserved for one specific site so you don't have to repeatedly log in, you have to add the site to the Exceptions list, then uncheck delete all cookies and settings when you close Firefox. Which defeats the entire purpose of having an exception. If everything is deleted, then nothing's an exception.

This is just as bad as removing the ability to never be notified of updates without having to jump through hoops, something the average user won't do. There used to be a simple checkbox which said to never notify you, but a few years back some programmer needing to justify their existence thought it would be a good idea to remove this simple option and instead endlessly harass the end user.

It's the simple things people want. Not bells and whistles. K.I.S.S is where it's at, but with every iteration we can see that is long gone.
