My first computer monitor had:
19% A clip-on polarized glass screen to catch "bad electrons"
4% A cactus on top of it to soak up "bad radiation"
5% A doily
9% All of the above
61% Sorry, I didn't grow up in Eastern Europe, so I have no idea what this poll is about

I would like to publicly curse the person who recommended that I try the Sim Settlements 2 mod for FO4.

You suck. I should have never met you.

Also, I do *not* have a problem and can stop any time I want to. Which is usually way too late at night.

I like that post-space-travel quote by Shatner as much as the next guy, but I find it goes too far when contrasting the "deadly space" with "life-nurturing Earth."

Earth is where things are constantly trying to kill you. Space is where things kill you without even trying.

Finally got power back at home. Thinking of people in Kharkiv who have been without power for days and who still don't know if and when they will get it back.

Periodic lamentation about how stupid it is to have 80kWh sitting in my driveway and no way to use it for the rest of the house in emergencies.

Generative AI seems to now be a bigger creator of disinformation than the Republican party.

Closed source software doesn’t have backdoors.

It does have “undocumented administrative features” and “development tools mistakenly enabled in production”, but not backdoors.

Yes, it is possible to backdoor the upstream kernel. No, I'm not the right guy to ask. I literally have a talk about this.
