You are training your replacement.
The Supreme court currently is itself a joke. They are bought and paid for agents of Trump.

It used to matter if you would say such things in court. It does not matter now when the court is loaded with unintelligent purchased ghouls.

More vile destruction from the Trump admin.

Wonder who will help for fires now? Conservatives do hate trees I guess.

Because a good portion of the country voted for someone who wants to be a dictator. Fairly straightforward answer.

This is a great game and a lovely use of the minimalism found in pico-8.

It would be cool to have a speed indication when a plane is selected or height but that makes everything more complex.

Again amazing game for the pico

I feel like this is nothing more than a side effect of what happened with Covid.

Which would mean if we were willing to shut things down like we did we should be willing to take the secondary effects and solve those problems too.

The Republicans are literally starving poor people. People who are on SNAP who have less than 3k in their bank accounts.

Hateful and incompetent is how most people would describe that.

Re:Scheme Reports at Fifty on Sunday October 19, 2025 @02:15PM (#45636504)
I wish I saw what these guys do in scheme. I only barely know what is happening and it seems interesting.

The parens are so hard for me to follow and always have. I have yet to find an editor that fixes that. Perhaps I did not try enough or am not smart enough to acutally use the editors correctly.

Anyway interesting read I think

The country is being run by a senile imbecile.

There is of course no reason for any of this other than the stupidity of those in charge.

virus stuff... should not be here
As expected. While Trump and Musk have or will have killed a lot of people with their cost cutting with USAID.

I expect the larger number of deaths to come from RFKjr. He is a deeply stupid man who cannot read and does not understand science or health related issues at all.

I used to do this and it worked pretty well I thought.

I eventually broke it into years (YYYY-MM-DD-notes.txt and just grep'd the directory.

Finally I made it to markdown files also stored in the same directory.

It was great for searching.

Not sure why anyone would trust someone who has bankrupted 6 companies personally and directly to make any choices on the economy.
Good to know which companies to go after for security bounties. There will be a feast.

Good story of why you cannot trust what AI returns. You should check everything.

A confident liar.

Much worse. The incoming health person is a vaccine denier. Which could put the US in the spot where we will not develop vaccines and lots of people could die.
Re:NandGame – Build a Computer from Scratch on Thursday October 31, 2024 @04:46PM (#42011339)
I wish there were more hints.

I have done this before in another version of this game but for the life of me cannot see how to get to a single output from all of the components I have placed on the screen.

It does look cool but without more directions or hints I am done for.

The main problem is that it has not even happened yet.

So far the only real problems have been insane republicans burning ballot boxes. And that one is a real problem not made up.

Hopefully something will come of this. He is a traitor if that is the case.
Re:Reverse Z in 3D graphics (and why it's so awesome) on Tuesday June 04, 2024 @10:40AM (#40575123)
this you are completely correct. just anything to show me why this is awesome instead of just the math!
Yeah that is weird hustle porn or at least the bottom part of that page is.

I would not want my name on that page if I worked there. Tech companies are weird.

The top portion of the page is great.

What you would expect from private equity sadly. Destroyers of value.
Re:How the U.S. government could lower food prices on Monday January 29, 2024 @12:47PM (#39179438)
Sadly this would not fly in the US.

Republicans would scream "less government is better" and block it like their lives depended on it.

A lovely version of Qix from days of old. I used to love that game. Super cool
Man he is stupid.

It does not take much effort to show that ads for good companies show up next to Elmo's nazi friends comments.

Apple, IBM and other companies are not leaving for the hell of it.

It pleases me greatly that there is a latin stackexchange.
