It’s been a long 2026 and I appreciate that this video actually made me laugh out loud.

Just the first time? I still have a bunch of my paper maps and I don’t think a single one is folded according to the original design. Turns into origami.

This was the foundational element of my jungle juice recipe.

Not at all what you’re asking for but I switched over to Davinci Resolve (free version) and haven’t opened Premiere since.

So the only arguments against the ban come down to how to perform the age verification and not issues with the ban itself. That makes sense. Maybe we could institute some kind of one time passcode where it’s like an MFA for age. Like picture your passport can generate a hash (unidirectional) that just contains like month and year of birth and is verified via PGP with the passport issuing body as the cert authority. So the only actual information you are sending is a hashed and cryptographically verified month and year of birth. That should probably make everyone happy.

I’ve never seen an 8k TV but ignorance is bliss as I’m still rocking 1080 and happy. I do see the difference at 4k when at friends houses but 1080 still looks good in my living room.

What’s the argument against a ban? I don’t see a downside to banning social media for kids. In theory they would be forced to build in-person social connections and local communities. After 16 they can expand into the social media space. Personally, I think it should be tied to something like drinking age.

The issue for me is that, let’s say that one day a magical device does allow time travel, it would also have to do teleportation relative to some point since everything is in motion. What would all of time and space use for a relative location? Can’t be the earth or sun since those are moving. Even our galactic cluster is moving. So if you went back in time a year, the earth wouldn’t be at the same point in space even though it’s done a full revolution. I’m no space scientist but I don’t imagine we have a solution.

“Thank you good sir”??? Like did he tip his fedora while typing that.

The way he asked was super cringy too. Like someone who has never been invited to an event before.

I do the same thing when I have to go to Shanghai on business. I have a burner phone and laptop that is used. They can search it however they want since it doesn’t have anything on it.

Ya know what, could it really be any worse than just letting AI create a scheduler? I’m on board for using it. No more Deadline or Fair Queuing for this guy!

00:00 is supposed to signify doomsday so my theory is that we would never actually see the time set to 00:00. Figure it gets down to 00:05 due to increased global issues so we know everything is super on-edge. In that scenario, nuclear war would probably kickoff and the last thing on anyone’s mind would be setting the clock to 00:00. After the kickoff of nuclear war, I doubt anyone is going to care enough to update the clock so it would forever be set to 00:05 until an advanced race of aliens send their exo archeologists to earth and make the discovery.

It’s a badge of honor. If we all make it to some future where history is still taught, I want to look back and be proud of what I did, not ashamed of giving in. I have protested multiple times but as of yet, ICE hasn’t targeted my area. When (not if) they do, I hope to be a proud member of that list.

Im guessing that this is going to escalate until either martial law or ICE leave MN.

I think many realize that segregation wasn’t long ago and that we never actually achieved the goals identified in our USA marketing/propaganda. The difference is that it felt like we were at least pursuing them in the 90s. Like there was huge amounts of systemic injustice but things seemed to be moving (slowly) in the right direction with gay rights and minority rights that we would actually have a shot of living up to our values in the long run.

I remember those concepts from the 90s, really showing my age now.

The challenge here is that a monologue like that would not be out of place on Fox “news” or even from congressional leaders. They’ve become caricatures of themselves. Everyday they say or do something that would have been an Onion headline before 2016.

The tough part is that Colorado and Nee Mexico would want to be with Canada but are cut off via Nevada and Utah.

I don’t follow VR closely so I am curious as to what exactly Meta did accomplish. You seem to have some awareness of this space. They spent an insane amount of money building shit, they must have made something remarkable even if no one cared. Could they really have built only a second rate VR Chat alternative? I mean with that amount of money, he could have built a replacement for credit card processors.
