They teach them “digital competence” by shoving an iPad in their face, and then they go “Look, they know how to use it! They must be computer geniuses!”

Great nominative determinism!

Literally me ten minutes ago…

Your dissent will be live!

So UNIX is *checks notes* IBM?

It’s a pun.

I'm going 10 miles above the limit on this incredibly wide and straight and flat road with high curbs and perfect visibility

This is the reason why people speed. If you want people to drive more slowly, you have to design the road/street in a way that discourages higher speeds. Do this, and you won’t need any invasive speed cameras or pay traffic cops to enforce.

On highways I suspect no one gives a shit. If it feels natural to drive 10 mph above the speed limit, it’s probably safe. But raising the speed limit would probably lead some people to speeding even more, with fewer options for punishing them (in my country at least, the fine is dependent on how much above the limit you were going).

A friend of mine hates cheese (I know, none of us understand it), and she got a job in Switzerland. She worked remotely, but every time she had to go there for company gatherings and such she had to endure endless amounts of fondue and raclette 😆

Arch, btw?

I think you can! It looks like it uses the pacman config on the ISO/host, and can copy it to the target.

I think it is much more important to groom your facial hair if it is… let’s say “sparse”. If I let my beard grow “wild” you just see how patchy it is 😆 If I keep it very short and trim the edges it looks presentable.

While I think you’re right, I would really like to have side airbags go off in a roll like that 😅 This car might not have had them, though.

I saw the trailer a few days ago. Looks like great satire! And I love that it was picked up by Microprose! Seems very fitting for a classical tycoon game.

My favorite detail is that one of the vertical solutions is a Star Wars quote only if you choose “Star Trek” as the horizontal solution!

He’s going to watch the game through the hole

It’s 100 % because you no longer need to understand how information technology works in order to use it.

So our parents didn’t know because the tech didn’t exist (or came late in their life), and our kids because they never needed to learn.

No stupid rules of engagement

This sounds like a great way to get your planes shot down by allies!

having to drive slower than reasonable

Honestly, this only exemplifies why speed limits by themselves don’t work. We have to design the streets so that the lower speed feels reasonable.

I know I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but it’s always worth saying.

Except for the obvious edit adding Graham’s name, yes this is a real thing Donald Trump posted on Truth Social when former FBI director Robert Mueller died.

Unfortunately this isn’t a new thing. Knut Hamsun, winner of the 1920 Nobel Prize in Literature, infamously gave his medal to Joseph Goebbels in 1943.
