So tariffs impacted price of computers around 10% and 20% depending on components.

Because of emphasis on AI, RAM is now in shortage. Micron just shut down Crucial.

It's about to get a lot more expensive because idiots want you to rely on chatbots. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A-eeJP0J7c&t

Reminds me when Carol Swain was in local commercials selling fridges.
did my good deed for the month, introducing my neighbor to the gospel of fliptree (cc @alissawilkinson.bsky.social)

“is this … real?”

Found the full document on Lacy's substack. Missed it reading the first time.

This is exceedingly broad. I was expecting more detail under Goal - Outcome Assignments. Something along the line of "Goal: address 2 unmonitored areas on 2nd avenue using Mobile Security Tower"

Nope, just checked boxes.
And in the grant application the DMC applied for a broader use that the MOU is limiting

NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse.

The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.

"Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender"

Others "said the most logical explanation was ... signaling for a rescue."

Oh, good. It passed. I fell asleep.

Going back to sleep now.
New zoning districts passed. Also Jeff Preptit is a NIMBY.

No messages from the mayor? Bold move.

Metro Creatures Discord is open for those interested. A lot of the NDP grant seems to be ironed out for now with deferment, but it surely will still be spicy with all the zoning stuff.

DM for an invite.

I wonder if these are the same moderate Dems that advised Bredesen to voice support for Kavanaugh that then led volunteers to drop off and people to ask for donations back?

Real winning strategy that was.

I'm starting to think Dan Bongino, Christopher Lloyd, Jeff Bezos, and all are all Mr. Bean. Shapeshifters.

Have you ever seen them in the same room together? Cause I haven't.

I was told I can share this joke: Jing says "Tell the bluesky people the Mayor has made her so mad (about things like cop toys) that he's off the Christmas card list."

He was on it.

Not this year.

And it's a good card this year.

One of our final conversation with my granddad was telling him about our kid and showing him the sonogram and that the name would be in one of theirs.

He died a month before the kid came.

This is awful.

You know what's really depressing about Mr. Holland's Opus?

The governor came in, gave a speech praising him, she played his symphony, and the program was still cut.

Metro admin and NDP is inviting this...

Like that will be good for business.

The way they've handled the grant lege, they act like they're the smartest folks in the room when really they haven't thought it through at all.

I was reading to the kid out of a Children's English/ Mandarin picture dictionary and Jing was correcting me, which is appreciated.

But every once and awhile she said the word was wrong.

Hon, you're arguing with a dictionary.

Also, I kind of think some of her words are specific to Suzhou.

We used to have nice bars downtown, like The Flying Saucer.
This is the ticket to economic impact that isn’t based on blackout drunkery, but no one here is a serious person
We are never going to get a civil rights museum or just a general African American history museum in this city because our thieves and grifters can't let us have one nice thing.
