Yeah sex is great but have you ever found a BIOS update from 1999 that worked and got your ancient Pentium 133 to recognize the 16GB CF card you bought for it

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

Don't know if "ironic" is the right word but it's certainly something that in the game's story, the SPARTAN program that created Master Chief was originally concieved to crush dissent within a fascist empire.

People who have zero tattoos should stop telling people why and how people get tattoos.
My first tattoo was in the military, and it was my grandfather’s nickname for me: Tigger. Yes, the Disney art, no, it’s not cool.

The AWS outage bricked people's $2,700 smartbeds, leaving them in a reclining position or with the heat up. People were unable to use them, basically. A GitHub repo exists that lets people operate their beds without reliance on the normal infrastructure

You can tell a lot about a person/org/society by who it lets be children
Funny how the press + white politicians just about never refer to unarmed Black teenagers who get murdered --
like Laquan McDonald, Mike Brown, Trayvon Martin, Jordan Davis, Ma'Khia Bryant, & younger, like Tamir Rice, Aiyana Jones-
as "kids," even though they call 30something racists "kids". 🤔

I think what trips people up is that rich people seem to be doing crimes but it’s important to remember common sense which is if they were doing all the crimes you think they’re doing, why is everyone in prison poor? That disproves the entire argument.

Social media is so cool because you get to find out how stupid all the supposedly smart people are
"I had friends say to me, look, we can oppose political violence without whitewashing this guy. I spent some time thinking about that over the weekend...and my reaction honestly is that it is too little to just say we oppose political violence."

I've yet to see a negative reaction to this WIRED article that actually engages with the content of the article, which takes about 10 minutes to read. This one doesn't even engage with the summarized coverage, which includes a bulleted list.
Why on earth is anyone here *complaining* about an organization paying liberal influencers.
Do we just hate winning or something?
