Gros fail de l'iconographie : "FB ne le sait pas encore mais il est déjà mort" aurait dû être illustré avec Ken le survivant.

@EUCommission Interesting that you mention a Lisbon-Vienna route via Italy, when all realistic routes go through Switzerland or Germany. You'd know by using a real journey planner like Railfinder 😉 https://www.railfinder.eu/search?from=17386&to=24884&date=2026-05-16&p=A

Every “I’ll just ask ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini”, every LLM-generated summary, is driving this https://www.tomsguide.com/ai/this-ai-data-center-will-be-bigger-than-2-000-walmarts-and-dump-23-atom-bombs-worth-of-energy-into-the-environment-every-day-and-locals-are-terrified

@mattblaze @SteveBellovin @20002ist USB-C that's not reversible? I'm amazed that's even possible

The thing is, people who are like "we just have to vote!" all have two things in common: 1) they have no fucking clue what Biden actually did and 2) they honestly think that if we elect Democrats and then protest them, they won't charge us with terrorism and render us to a Black Site. Both are expressions of being Sweet Summer Children.

Sure you should vote. Honestly, all the harm is baked in because you don't have any real choices outside of local elections, so the moral injury is slight.

@TheBreadmonkey Post shit, get banged.

@pluralistic How the hell do you fatfinger the num lock key? It's waaaaaay over there in the suburbs

I think one of the worst things about social media, it's a) everyone now wants to be an influencer and has a cooking channel and 2) people who use the word bloom to describe heating spices in oil. I cannot stand it. It makes me want to scream. It's like runners who talk in inclines instead of hills. You are not a spices expert! Do not say bloom! It is disgusting! Argh! I hate it so much. Like nails on a chalkboard. The holibobs of heating spices.
