One small nitpick: The base model MacBook Pro has thunderbolt 4, not 5. Upgraded versions have v5: https://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs/

The "timeline" will only get better if everyone works hard on improving it. It's shitty, but we have to start from scratch. The Democrats aren't capable of representing most people, we need a progressive party or something like that. We need to win local elections, state, county, city etc...

I've recently concluded that societies/cultures need some higher goal to strive towards. Space exploration fills that need. It's not popular in government, but some (most?) citizens find it inspiring.

Sasquatch was young and paying their way through college!

What's super depressing to me is that if we suddenly started teaching critical thought in every year of school, we'd still have multiple decades of people without that skill. And if we did teach critical thinking, it'd take decades before those people are in any power. A far cry from the...

I think that's wishful thinking. Musky chodelet will stick around until the end. I think the ridiculous doge thing is a distraction, to keep people focused away from the looting that will happen. Remember: pay no attention to what they say, but monitor very carefully what they do.

Still going to mask up when in public. Also, PSA: wash your hands when getting home. Stop touching your face. Wash your hands more frequently and more thoroughly.

I really want to play PoE2 when it arrives, but the last time I played PoE my hands got messed up with carpal tunnel. I've been told that software/hardware that helps folks with disabilities still won't be allowed because the game developer says it is used for cheating :(

View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXg-qoRN0co A winged drone could loiter on thermals for hours while waiting for a mission. Then tuck its wings and dive down onto a target. The astonishing maneuverability of the linked drone is amazing. I'd really like to see where the current state of...

Lionel Richie: "You're once, twice, three times a monopoly"

Akagi, so kinda :) Kagi means "Key" Akagi means "Red Castle"

Quick plug for Kagi: https://kagi.com/ It's an alternative search engine, uses a machine x of results from its own database plus google and bing. You can block sites from appearing in results, and the results are much better than googles right now. It is a subscription service, but you get...

If the grooming conversation detection works, that has the potential to protect a massive number of vulnerable people. I'd also like to see a behavioural training set based on the actions of predators in popular kid spaces like Roblox or Minecraft. I hope a similar model could be used to...

@Aurich May I please request an article on the interior design and construction of Starship? @blackhawk887 Thank you, that helps me to visualize it much better. The size of this brings into context just how useful Starship is going to be. While I'd rather have a dedicated Moon-Mars vehicle with...

That's the interior of Starship?!? It's huge!

The Starship represents a massive amount of engineering talent and hard work. It's really mind boggling and humbling to think of what has been accomplished already. That diagram makes me excited to see what block 3 Starships can enable!

I wonder if the folks downplaying the harm and illegality of generated CSAM would argue the same thing in front of their mother, sister, girlfriend, or wife?

They're either pro-CSAM or they're a troll. People need to realize that when someone adds a terrible take to a thread, then defends it in a way calculated to get everyone angry, then that person is a troll and not worth engaging.

There are no rational arguments to be had with or about fascists. And to the derail folks: go ahead, argue about the definition of fascism. Just please do it elsewhere.
