I get that eggs are in a lot of recipes, but people’s obsession with them is still surprising to me. There are so many other foods to choose from.
Wouldn’t kids prefer to find something they actually want, rather than an egg (or especially a potato)? I know the fertility symbolism but I’d still rather look for candy bars.
Have you actually looked at it? The sort of index fund that people put their retirement money in (if they invest in stocks rather than bonds) has doubled its value in the last 7 years. Quadrupled in the last 13.
That’s not how it works. Stock prices don’t fall below the level that rich people are willing to buy them at, specifically because rich people buy them at that level.
Get thee behind me, anything beyond extended ASCII.
At least they’re not hiding that the solution is generated by AI, but the random usernames make me suspect that they’re trying to avoid blocking or banning.
I’m not a bee, you’re not a bee, so it sounds like a them problem.
(On the internet, nobody knows you’re a bee.)
I think that is the most based I have ever seen a machine be. Soon AI will be more based than any human.

The programmer’s answer?
We don’t support that use case.
On the one hand, murder for the purpose of terrorism is more serious than ordinary murder, but on the other hand I think they might be overreaching given that people on the jury are more likely to be sympathetic to the defendant than they would be to an ordinary murderer. I suspect the feds are more interested in making a strong impression now than they are in the ultimate outcome of a case that will go on for years.
Earlier this month a court ordered a halt to deportations carried out under the Alien Enemies Act, a 1798 law previously used only in wartime. However, US media, citing administration sources, reported that the recent deportations were made under general immigration laws.
That’s all that the article says. We’ll see how the judge responds…
You’re doing exactly what he is asking you not to.
that series of keypresses is that exits vim
One of the great mysteries of the universe. However, I can confirm that my standard power button also exits vim.
I’m spiteful enough that I would have returned my new laptop (despite needing it for a trip in a couple of days) if I hadn’t been able to bypass the account requirement by disabling the wifi.
What still pissed me off is that it would restart itself after downloading updates if it was left idle, and there was no straightforward option to turn that off. (I think I managed to break that “feature” but who knows how long that will work.) Turning my computer off is never acceptable unless I initiate it. It’s about as obviously wrong as walking into my house uninvited or borrowing my stuff without asking me.
Except it’s not just some guy vandalizing a car, or else you wouldn’t be making memes about it.
I was confused about how the restraining order could conceivably lead to shutting down the agency but apparently Leland Dudek simply wanted to spite the court.
“My anti-fraud team would be DOGE affiliates. My IT staff would be DOGE affiliates,” he said to Bloomberg News on Thursday. “As it stands, I will follow it exactly and terminate access by all SSA employees to our IT systems.” He continued, “Really, I want to turn it off and let the courts figure out how they want to run a federal agency."
I hope that the “clarifying guidance” he received from the court before he changed his mind included an explanation of the judicial smackdown which he would receive if he tried this bullshit.
It’s OK, this is what the majority of American voters chose.
Just fill your living room with radioactive waste and they’ll come put this sign up for free.
I already knew that people who spit gum out onto the ground are monsters.
When I got my dog at the shelter, they told me two things about him:
He liked to eat garbage.
He liked being held like a baby.
He was a good size for it too, about 30 lbs. Big enough for a real hug, but not too heavy to lift comfortably. He would press his neck against mine when I held him - I think that was his way of reciprocating. The funny thing is that he was jealous about my hugs. If I hugged another person, he would whine, stand on his hind legs, and try to push that person away from me with his front legs.
