Rest easy, knowing that the entire stock market probably operates off that 100 GB binary file that they can't open and can barely stream.

Screenshot of an X (Twitter) thread in dark mode. At the top, Dmitrii Kovanikov (@ChShersh, verified) posts: “Here’s a real task from my job. I have a 100GB binary file. Produced daily. I can’t grep it. But I can decode it. However, I can’t store the decoded version either. It’s too big. How do I efficiently query it? Decoding piped to grep takes 2 minutes. I want 2 seconds.” The tweet shows engagement numbers (about 888 replies, 90 quote tweets, 2.6K likes, 1.6M views). Below, Tahir (@kiracked) replies: “How do I find a job like this :P” with small counts for replies, likes, and views. At the bottom, Dmitrii Kovanikov replies again with a separate tweet that reads: “Apply to Bloomberg,” with a timestamp line showing “5:25 AM · Dec 8, 2025 · 28.2K Views.”

LOL Holy fuck what a twat.
White text on a dark background reads: “That said, there are indeed people actually incapable of soldering on their own due to physical disabilities etc. These are also the people I had in mind when I founded the PCB sharing group so that other users could then help there.”

Sorry but this is so pretentious. Sorry I just wanna root a vacuum, not get a morality lecture about how I need to learn to solder it myself. Jesus.
White text on a dark background reads: “These PCBs are not meant to be sold. If you bought one or are aiming to buy one, you've been scammed by a third party trying to extract value from this project. I highly encourage you not to support such behavior, as – like all value extraction – such actions have devastating results. The people selling them do not care about you, the project, the world, or me. In the long term, they made money, and that's all that matters to them. If you think about it, you're probably here because you dislike those very business practices. Therefore, please build the PCB yourself, share it, learn something in the process, connect with like-minded people, and grow your skillset – rather than giving money to people who thrive on trading better futures for instant gratification and personal gain.”

A screenshot of a Washington Post article titled “Why you may not want lower prices as much as you think you do.” Subheadline reads, “Though Americans might be clamoring for relief on groceries, housing and energy costs, economists say there's a bigger downside to falling prices.” The dateline is November 30 at 5:00 AM 2025. Below, a silhouette of a person pumping gas into a white vehicle at a Shell station, with palm trees and a bright blue sky in the background. A caption says, “Gas prices rise and fall. But once most goods get more expensive, they don't get cheaper again. (Joe Raedle/Getty Images).” The byline reads, “By Julie Zauzmer Weil.”

Our funniest president, ladies and gentlemen. :trump:

https://x.com/Acyn/status/1995258133179244576?s=20
A tweet from the account “Acyn (@Acyn)” shows a transcript of an exchange between a reporter and Donald Trump. The text reads: “Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results. Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached. Absolutely perfect. If you want to have it released, I’ll release it. Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at? Trump: For what? Releasing? Reporter: No, what part of the body was the MRI looking at? Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it. I got a perfect mark which you would be incapable of doing. Good bye everybody. Reporter: Thank you Mr. President.” Below the transcript is an image styled like an official White House graphic, showing an illustration of the White House, a small American flag, and the text “Audio Only — President Trump Gaggles with Press on Air Force One, Nov. 30, 2025.” A play button indicates a 50-second clip.

Dicked around with my prototype neural video codec AI. For the prompt "butterfly on a flower" this was the result. One keyframe generated via the SDXL network, motion calculated from the MotionNet/Refiner. Again, fascinating that anything happened at all.

Remember when you could just name a game something simple like Football?
A tweet from the Internet Archive account promoting the vintage computer game “Football for Windows.” The tweet text explains that the game, created by an ex–college player, lets you act as coach and was once free to copy and play, with optional registration to unlock everything. Below the tweet text is a screenshot of the game’s interface, showing a retro Windows window titled “FOOTBALL FOR WINDOWS v4.00 – Oilers vs. Browns.” The screen includes menus, score boxes, play selection options, and a green football field diagram with colored dots and arrows indicating player positions and routes. A caption on the screenshot reads, “Second down. Injury on the field.”

#democrats btfo lol
A screenshot of a Tumblr-style text post containing a multi-user conversation. Usernames appear in bold at the start of each nested comment. The discussion centers on gerrymandering, voter participation, and criticism of political strategy. The final paragraph describes a type of Democrat focused on expecting unprecedented voter behavior rather than altering political strategy or systems.

not so sure about that tbh i think we're getting exactly what we deserve
A tweet from Gavin Newsom reads, “America deserves better,” quoting a post from The Recount about the U.S. Senate voting 60–40 to advance a bipartisan deal ending the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. The quoted tweet mentions eight Democrats supporting the deal, which funds SNAP through September but excludes Affordable Care Act extensions. Below is a screenshot of the Senate chamber with senators present and a caption showing “Yea 60 Nay 40” for the motion to proceed with H.R. 5371.

There very worst thing about the Democratic party is that they just keep giving this stupid face win after win after win.

Front page of the New York Post with the headline “On your Marx, get set, Zo! Socialist Mamdani wins race for mayor” above a large subheadline reading “The Red Apple.” The image shows a stylized red figure holding up a hammer and sickle, with the face of a smiling man edited onto the figure. The background features a cityscape resembling New York City with tall buildings and stars in the sky. A small text box at the bottom right describes a political campaign and notes that Mamdani will become mayor of New York City.

Are these people so lost in the sauce they can't understand how fucking evil this sounds? What the fuck, Lila? :pepe_disgust:
A social media post by Lila Rose features a message about a baby named Charlie. The text explains that Charlie’s parents were told his organs were underdeveloped and were advised to terminate the pregnancy, but they chose not to. It says Charlie was born and lived for two hours before passing away, ending with the statement “Every child is worthy of life.” Below the text is a photo showing a newborn baby in a hospital, wrapped in a blanket and wearing a small cap, gently held by gloved medical staff. The image credit reads “Photo credit: Mary James.”
