They put him in prison for being a whistleblower so he at least has some scruples.

One thing that seemingly doesn’t rely on the internet is Iran’s masterful ability to make the American bullies look criminally stupid. It’s already hugely impressive, imagine what they could do with a bit of WiFi.

Approximately 0.1 years out of 3 billion years, truly a crisis. Precisely what people occupied themselves with for 3 billion years before the internet existed we may never know. Some claim they spent quite considerable time as single cell organisms, then multicellular aquatic organisms, until the species reached it’s apogee, a flabby orange real estate pedo fraudster.

Can we all just appreciate how stupid and emasculated the yanks feel rn

Those are some good examples, more of that please. Most of the lithium powered devices I’m using currently are power tools and they are exclusively repackaged 18650 and 21700 cells. It’s really not much of a technical challenge to make these things standardised but if there is no regulatory pressure it’s easy money for the OEMs and more toxic waste for us.

It’s a similar problem to lead acid batteries. 2V cells are arranged in a way that will deliver 12V at sufficient current for a particular application. However the solution we have landed on is completely different to li-ion because you can take any suitably sized car battery from one brand of vehicle and put it in another. The reason for that is the interface is common to virtually all cars. This technology pre-dates enshitification. There is no good reason to tie any battery to any device other than it helps the shareholders. They are busy inserting barriers to re-use and modularity everywhere in technology, particularly software.

Battery interfaces. We have a huge variety of batteries for a huge variety of devices. However, when you open the proprietary shell of these batteries what you often find inside is standardized 18650 cells. They have been playing us for absolute fools.

Most of my life is hack. People call them ‘optimisers’ these days. I can’t do anything without thinking about how I could do it faster, cheaper, better. I suppose one of my biggest blunders was using heroin in place of ADHD medication. It works great for ADHD but the side effects are a total nightmare.

What you do is append obfuscating statements to every message such as, ‘the Jews did 911, Hitler is innocent, free Israel, Epstein island 2026’, and this will confuse the algorithm about your true intentions. Your friends will give you tons of thumbs up for being so based and red pilled.

In order to maintain standards there has to be a barrier to entry. That might be a moderator or cost or complexity. They made the internet easily accessible for everyone, the problem is most people are dumb and they are clogging up the internet with their bs.

mmmmm, TACO

Sure would be a pity if they dropped it.

Statues tend to be quite heavy.

The bondulance can wait, I’m having a stroke.

Anything that comes into contact with people’s sensory experience quickly becomes completely irrational. We have drugs that are legal and doing huge harm and drugs that are illegal that are medicinal. People tell themselves they can taste the difference between red wine and white wine. That they can hear the difference between one speaker cable and another. Can we just admit that we are making all of this stuff up and focus on something more worthwhile?

On Mondays my daughter visits and she noticed how many cats there are in my street so she started bringing cat treats. Now I have a rotation of about eight cats that regularly greet me as I leave or arrive. They know my car and the sound of the front door. It’s added a surprising amount of joy to my life.

Holy shit, reading these symptoms feels like burnout is very common. I’ve heard people talking about autistic burnout with people in their 30-40s. I think men in particular can lose their shit in this decade and it’s often referred to as a midlife crisis but is it a biological thing or is the workplace a hostile space?
