Every year California is becoming more like Night City. Cyperpunk is supposed to be a dystopia, not an aspiration.

We’ll now need AIs to spot AI fakes. AI wins!

Securing a general purpose operating system seems like the Dutch boy with his finger in the dike. It doesn’t matter if its Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X. Lots of little leaks, not enough fingers to plug them.

This is like that episode of Rick and Morty.

I think the hydrogen is intended to be sourced from natural gas, which is not a great thing. The only way I see this working in an environmentally sustainable way is an efficient means of solar hydrolysis (much more efficient than photosynthesis).

No we don’t! This isn’t argument, it’s contradiction! Yes it is! No it isn’t! Yes it is! No it isn’t!

The problem with the 5G phones is that they effect the thought waves of the pilots and put them into a deep dive trance. I can’t blame them for wearing those tinfoil hats. Modern aviation is not what they taught in flight school.

I remember once when I accidentally turned on my phone during a flight instantly the plane started to plummet out of the sky. The phone slipped out of my hands and I groped for it while people and service items flailed around the cabin as the plane tumbled. Finally I slipped out of my belt and grabbed it. With only 10,000 feet of altitude to spare, I finally managed to get the phone to go into shutdown mode by holding the power button down. The plane righted itself immediately, and I slipped the phone into my pocket quietly and kept a low profile for the rest of the flight.

I’d love to see Ryan Cohen short sell the Reddit IPO. What would WSB do?

It’s just amazing that probably the one man who least needs to give a crap about anything has such a thin skin. All of his money can’t seem to resolve his deep insecurity.

Place your phone in a sealed bag with a container of anhydrous calcium chloride, like Damp Rid. DO NOT allow the powder to get in the phone, just have in the same bag as the phone. It is a strong desiccator.

I, Telemarker.

What’s he saying? And it’s not like he can see what his words are doing down below.

Given that Microsoft software runs the government, I don’t see this happening very soon. They might as well be another branch of the US government.

Can’t wait for the subscription based Pi.

It’s quite likely a lot of Americans’ data is already being stored and perhaps mined in the Utah Data Center.

I would just assume your data could be there unless your computer has never been connected to the Internet. It’s simply too easy to hide surveillance in the processor (in the form of remote administration capabilities), the operating system (with remote updates), or the browser, or in the numerous security holes or likely zero-day exploits out there. The state of computer security is an absolute joke, and your 4096-bit RSA key is not keeping your data safe.

The NSA does not need money from asset forfeiture. This is one of the stupidest accusations I’ve heard of NSA. They have to be careful about how they use their intelligence to keep potential targets unaware of what they can or are snooping on. This would be the stupidest and most pointless use of their intelligence. Anyone they would share intelligence with must do so with the most absolute secrecy, and municipal and state law enforcement generally does not qualify. This doesn’t mean they’re not acting unlawfully, but knowing if they are is going to next to impossible.

You’ve got to point your dish at Mars first, otherwise you can’t hear it.

Don’t worry, they’ll destroy their printers for you, so you have to buy new ones.
