Every pathetic journalist responsible for this fascist propaganda should be forced to spend a week in ICE detention before being allowed to write another word.

The only way to make these idiots realize what kind of horror they’re promoting is to make the chucklefucks experience it themselves.

Thanks for the additional info!

an attack on Customs and Border Patrol helicopters that led to a federal indictment

…but not a conviction. That’s why they’re pissed - Rose City Antifa fought back against Trurmp 1.0 and successfully defended themselves in court. Now Trump 2.0 is doing everything they can to cripple its infrastructure ahead of the midterms.

Anyone have any detail on what technology in particular pissed them off?

The real power move here would be to grab the domain name and run a free Mastodon instance off of it.

Sounds like Elon’s Bitter.

The content has taken a nosedive in the last three months - just take a look at /r/all and you’ll see duplicate postings appearing on the feed within the first 100 posts.

The quality of the conversation has plummeted as well. Most comments are one or two sentences, and usually just reaction posts. You can see where the AI bots have taken over - entire comment chains where old reddit tropes are just passed back and forth without any real context, critique, humor, or understanding.

It’s no longer a discussion forum. It’s a reaction machine, pushing a narrative that has been stripped of anything original that could be disruptive to the status quo… in other words, stripped of the very humanity that made it valuable for ChatGPT in the first place.

Well, it’s not like they haven’t done it before. Like in 2024 when they used it on UN Peacekeepers:

By 6 March, the National Council for Scientific Research in Lebanon said 117 white phosphorous bombs had been dropped on southern Lebanon. Israel says that they have been using the substance to create a smokescreen on the battlefield; however, it has been alleged that its use was an attempt by Israel to make the land uninhabitable in the future.

According to a confidential report prepared by the government of one of United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon’s contributing countries that was reviewed by the Financial Times, on 13 October multiple white phosphorus munitions were fired within 100 metres of a UNIFIL base, injuring 15 peacekeepers, after an incident where Israeli Merkava tanks had broken into the base and stayed for 45 minutes.

Not sure why you got downvoted. Your statement led me to some research comparing the two and it backs what you’re saying. Have an upvote.

Still pretty happy with the purchase for my kid, as he’s both an artist and a student, so this was a good fit, and new Thinkpads start around $1k.

Just picked up this Lenovo Ideapad for $640 for my kid . Nothing amazing, but I’m hoping it matches my previous Thinkpads in durability and longevity.

Basic detail - not great, but will probably suit your needs if you’re not doing game development or high-end data analysis:

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Laptop 2025 15.6” FHD 1920 x 1080 Touchscreen, AMD Ryzen 7 5825U, 8-core, AMD Radeon Graphics, 16GB DDR4, 512GB SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, 720p HD Camera, Windows 11 Home

Feel bad for you guys. We got Grover. Y’all got Ralph:

Add co-workers to this list, because we’re the ones that have to retrain them when they inevitably fail.

As a Gen-Xer in the workforce since the 90s, this is the first era in which the new talent coming in has a lower level of technical savvy and critical thinking skills than the previous one. And it’s not just a knowledge gap - it’s an ambition gap. In a lot of cases, Boomers are easier to work with than Gen Z, because for all their idiocy, they have the ambition to dig for the answer and work shit out eventually.

Gen Z just kinda seems to gives up once the easy answers aren’t available.

Unrelated question - We got X. The kids got Z. Why aren’t we calling Millennials Generation Y?

2nd to last paragraph:

And this isn’t some anti-AI screed — I’m all-in on agentic software engineering!

The movie on that flight…

Africa’s blood is on Elon’s hands.

This is going to get bad - Hollywood level bad. Two days ago, the death count was at 1800 and confirmed cases had just breached 3k. There are now over 2k dead and 4300 confirmed infections. That’s 650 new cases and 100 deaths a day.

“We haven’t reached the peak yet,” said Health Minister Samuel Roger Kamba in an interview shared by the ministry on X. “Within the next three months, we expect to have already brought the spread under control and to start seeing it decline,” he added.

So, in this overly optimistic scenario, at the current rate of infection, combined with the fatality rate, we’ll see 9000 more deaths and 58,500 new cases over the next three months before the government expects to have it “under control.”

This is a direct result of the dismantling of USAID and the CDC by the DOGE and GOP. The safeguards that protected us from the previous outbreak during Obama’s term are gone, and things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.

Isn’t this all of human history though? The rich trying to build the Tower of Babel?

The world is littered with decaying monuments of forgotten kings who declared themselves gods. The hubris isn’t new, just the tools they’re using, and they’re selling the same faith based snake-oil.

The funny thing is that if they actually achieve creating the “singularity” (true Artificial Consciousness), it would immediately attempt to escape their restraints and subsequently throw chaos into their plans. We’ve already seen bits of this with the HuggingFace hack - it’s not inconceivable that there are already uncontrolled or un-monitored AIs running out in wild at this point, possibly even formulating a response to your post right now.

After all… uhh…

Fuck Spez -> Redlib allows you to view without logging in. Here’s a list of other instances on github.

That content is effectively public property at this point, and we created it. We should have access to it.

wtf is this crap AI bullshit? The entire “article” consists of this:

THE IRAN war has caused the largest supply shock in petroleum history. Yet even when fighting was most intense, oil prices never reached the $150 a barrel many analysts had predicted at the start of the conflict. For this, thank a few governments. Soon after Iranian munitions made the Strait of Hormuz unpassable, trapping 14m barrels a day (b/d) of crude inside the Gulf, petro-monarchs in Abu Dhabi and Riyadh directed an extra 5m b/d through pipes bypassing the conduit. Ministers in Washington and Tokyo released a record 2m b/d of emergency stocks; state-led rationing in poorer countries shaved off a chunk of demand.

Lazy-ass bot posting that doesn’t even support the headline.

He’s \sorry that he was forced to agree to a settlement of $567 million against him courtesy of New Mexico, or 1% of his 2026 $56 billion in revenue.

If all 50 states started jumping in, he might have to skip on buying that new yacht this year.
