“Why does this microwave oven cost $1500?”
“Two reasons. The first is that it has to have a full network stack to allow it to download software from competing appliance vendors. The second is the cost that the manufacturer had to bear to develop software for every single other microwave sold. There are some pretty weird architectures out there, and they had to hire a whole bunch of programmers.”
People keep complaining that solar and wind give us “too much electricity at the wrong time”, causing power prices to go negative (as if this is a problem). Having a beneficial process like co2 removal that you can do at any time of day (the co2 isn’t going anywhere) that would soak up all that energy seems like a win win.
If they own infowars, they’ll come into possession of a lot of information about the fans, won’t they? Mail them targeted deprogramming material.
Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr
He’s doing that now. He will do it if he is sentenced, and ALSO if he doesn’t get jail time. Appeasing him gets you exactly nothing.
( his campaign has claimed they already raised 55m since the conviction).
His campaign claims a lot of things, none of them true. It would be surprising if this turned out to be the first time they weren’t lying.
It’s why I think he didn’t get really anything bad when he violated the gag order so much.
I think the judge was going overboard to give every benefit of the doubt to Trump so there would be no basis for appeal. I hope that’s the case.
He can’t be worse than the ones that are already our overlords.
Pretty much all of human history would like a word.
There’s an old saying: “Graphene is so versatile it can do anything except leave the laboratory”.
“We hear you, American consumer! You say you want a sub-$40k, small, basic EV. So here’s another luxury SUV/pickup truck/yacht crossover starting at $90,000.”
It wasn’t in the boing boing article, but this is according to the Washington Post:
Climax CEO Oliver Zahn accused the foundation of caving to pressure from dairy cheesemakers in revoking the award. And then he spilled the curds: Climax, it turns out, wasn’t just a finalist — it was set to win the award, a fact that all parties are asked to keep confidential until the official ceremony in Portland, Ore., but was revealed in an email the foundation sent to Climax in January. Based on that information, Zahn and several of his colleagues had planned to attend, booking hotel rooms and making travel plans, until, he says, learning from this reporter that his cheese was no longer in the running.
Are they going to give him his $60B bonus now?
Full self crashing
No, the question is why not?
Light emitting diode -> smoke emitting diode -> flame emitting diode
But what is the value of having those interviews? Platforming somebody who is just going to tell flat out lies, and not calling them out, doesn’t inform the viewer of anything other than that watching that news outlet is a waste of time.
They’ve been doing that at least since the GWB years, which is why I stopped listening to them then.
What logistics? You put him in a jail. Works for other people. “What about secret service protection?” They can go there with him. They can go home at night though. If you worry about his safety, put him in his own personal prison on an abandoned military base. It worked for Rudolph Hess.
It’s only hard if you make it hard.
You’d think that, but since the 80s they’ve managed to do an enormous amount of damage and drag the country to the brink of ruin just by being obstructionist and crazy. Seems like a strategy, and a fairly effective one.

CopyMeThat https://apps.apple.com/us/app/copy-me-that-recipe-manager/id956800243 is great. Give it the url, it extracts the recipe. It not only gets rid of the ads, but also the obligatory family history of how the recipe was brought by Nana from the old country, followed by a tedious retelling of a touching story about her. And optionally saves it to your account so you always have it. And there’s web access so you can use anywhere it and a safari extension on the Mac.
OP said “no hardware vendor”, not “ no networked hardware vendor”.
