I find it hard to believe that anyone could cause so much harm through sheer incompetence alone and so I'm left to speculate that DOGE actually wasn't a failure at all and that they achieved precisely what they set out to do, albeit with more than a smidge of incompetence along the way.

If you've not seen them I recommend watching Dumb Money (Gamestop) and the Big Short (2008 market crash).

The data says the energy distribution infrastructure just isn't going to be ready to support widespread EV adoption in the proposed timescales, but why let a trivial thing like that get in the way of headlines.

I'd wager nobody has ever wanted to work. People want to design, build, create, fix, protect, help because it's fulfilling but instead we've created a world where people have to trade the time of their lives for food, health and shelter.

Another law here does feel unnecessary. The taking-a-car bit is already a no-no, and we've already got the magic eight-ball law of "going equipped" for carrying dual-purpose devices.

As usual it'll be innocent people falling foul of a bullshit law that the lawmakers are ill-equipped to define.

I think there's a conversation to be had about whether those devices *should* be regulated, given the only distinction is on whether your intentions are honest or not.

Initial reports I've heard are that it's... Oh.

Why do we idolise the chosen few?Where do we draw the line?
The headline celebrity is an a-hole so we don't watch it.
The director is an a-hole so...

A caterer...

Given you've got an integrated HP PC rather than a dedicated gaming rig, yes. The Steam deck is far more capable in graphics than anything but high-end non-gaming devices.

I bought Fallout:London and my laptop was unplayable but the Steam deck handles it without problem.

Are you *not* awesome, like, all the time?

Are you... Ok?

Hey i think I've seen this one. Gerard Butler saves the king, the day and the world with rugged begrudging perseverance and an excessive amount of firepower.
