92·2 days agoTwitter is gone. It died the day Elon fired most of its staff.
231·2 days agoSounds like a bubble.
3·2 days agoLast time I tried to take an Amtrak train, it was over four hours late. I gave up and drove to my destination.
More brilliant decisions from Satya Nadella. 🙄
208·2 days agoBut nuclear apologists told me nuclear is “safe” and “clean”?
Oh no! Not the 0000 passcode for my mouse or headphones!
The 80s Dune movie has a stellar cast and amazing art direction.
Titanic would have been a better movie if they had cast someone other than Leo DiCaprio.
3·4 days agoThat’s a shame. I’ve had no problems with any of the non-sleep Anker earbuds I’ve purchased.
A product nobody wants or needs. Here’s hoping the rumors are misunderstanding what this is and it’s just a speaker dock for iPhones and iPads or something.
A lot of it is just propaganda bots at this point.
The problem being that the ones moving on to other jobs are the actual talent. Unlike a targeted layoff, this leaves Amazon with the employees no one else wanted.
Many generic meds are made in filthy factories with no quality control.
The FDA is slacking on testing generics for quality assurance, but third parties and other countries are revealing problems.

5·6 days agoPicard season 1 would have made more sense if they’d killed off Picard at the end, and renamed Rios’ ship after Picard. I would’ve watched that show with that ship and that crew.
I find his earlier works are better. Salems Lot, Carrie. The Shining. His short stories are also usually good. He also wrote a lot of early stuff under pseudonyms.
But his later works are hit or miss for me. “Pet Semetary” was an interesting idea ruined by characters doing stupid things to move the plot forward. “It” has a huge following, but the underage orgy scene is disgusting and seems like something from a writer who used too many stimulants while writing it, and a publisher that didn’t have editorial control over his later works. “The Institute” was awful. Doctor Sleep was an unnecessary sequel. Etc etc.
Why is it that most manufactured pop from before you were born still sounds good, but most manufactured pop after your 40s sounds irritating as fuck? Like, I could dig some “Charleston” from the 1920s but Ashley Simpson is barf-o-rama.
51·8 days agoStrange photo. Isn’t that swab supposed to go up the nose for a Covid test? Or do they do it differently in the UK?
If Microsoft is paying for it, why do they need a loan?
Will Microsoft also be paying for any nuclear waste disposal?
