In both cases it’s millennials. It’s even called “millennial grey.”

Don’t worry Tesla diamond hands: Trump will announce a “Strategic TSLA reserve buying scheme.”

Also known as the Kamala Harris strategy: punch left and hug a war criminal.

Too many villains in our society, not enough heros.

Unironically one of the most surprising thing about the current crop of techbros is how anti-intellectual they are. Back in the day Paul Graham published a smarmy essay about how you shouldn’t have possessions except books. Nowadays, I see so many techbros saying “I hate books” and “I never read.”

It’s weird to have your self identity be both I’m smarter than everyone else and also I don’t read. I really am baffled at how they square that circle.

When I was a kid there was a cartoon called Captain Planet.

The bad guys would build these factories that didn’t seem to produce anything but pollution. Like, they would take in trees and sea creatures or whatever, and the only thing that would come out is smog and green water. It was very on-the-nose.

Bitcoin is a pollution factory.

I think pulling the openly trans storyline is bad.

It would have been cringe and counterproductive

I think having the “openly” Christian character is totally fair and reasonable.

It will be cringe and counterproductive.

Disney isn’t a company capable of creating good art anymore. No matter who they try to pander to, it will be shallow, tired, and insufferable.

the issue here is

The issue is Mozilla’s McKinsey CEO has decided to break the promise not to sell personal data.

If Firefox disappears. Mozilla isn’t Firefox, it’s the organization staffed with ad-tech and McKinsey ghouls and paid by Google to kill Firefox.

The equally hilarious thing is that currently they have the “never will” promise in the same codebase as the “definitely will” gated by a “TOU” flag, showing intent to violate the promise.

After they censored all the republicans there was nothing new left…

Thanks Obama.

Seriously, the Obama administration loved this guy even though it was obvious to a lot of us that he was a total grifter. The Starship/Artemus plan made no sense but got selected anyway.

If people are wondering why Google is simping to Trump, they have been convicted of being a monopoly and the antitrust action is now in the penalty phase.

The action started under Trump I, was vigorously pursued by Biden’s Lena Kahn and the conviction secured. Now all that’s left is to decide the penalty, which could range from a strongly written letter to a breakup of the company.

If it’s any consolation, Bomarc was also cancelled.

Eh, the “savior” in that case would be JD Vance.

I’m guessing that hyper-defensiveness is probably a survival tactic at Tesla.

FDIC wasn’t on the hook for much of the SVB deposits because they were over the insurance limit, until they realized that wealthy people were going to lose money and retroactively decided to pony up.

Things actually broke through there during the Elon/Vivek h1 blowup over Christmas, but that all got cleaned up quickly.

The swing if you look at consecutive yougov polls was 8 points. That’s a lot in just two weeks!
