News@lemmy.world•Trump considered awarding self Medal of Honor amid Iran war chaos: insiders
81·3 days agoSome of the first people to get it got it doing a massacre of Native Americans so this seems more like going back to basics with an Obama giving himself a medal meme included but with more pedo shitting himself vibes.

So was Einstein and didn’t treat his wife well if I remember correctly. I guess there are no heroes.
If you plan on getting rid of the wood supports you can do a bookshelf with a built in ladder on the far side to get to the books and make use of stuff there and aren’t afraid of falling and on the near side put a couch with some sort of support so it can’t fall into the stairwell, but only do those two things if you’re ok with some clutter and difference in how that stairwell is set up, otherwise put something there to stop people falling regardless, thus the couch with the supports.

I hate that youtube music did that when google music worked better and allowed you to run it without connecting periodically. Now I have Grayjay and a music app I use in graphene, never been happier to listen to the people I subscribe to only and have to go out of my way if I want to doomscroll.
Hopefully nobody has the initials E. F. Pleasure Killer is not great.

That link feels appropriate to both this comic and the melania situation.
Can’t say I ever watched his comedy, and only know him from his award show comedy roasts of the audience which were funny, but overall not my type of comedian. What did he do?

News@lemmy.world•Sam Altman’s coworkers say he can barely code and misunderstands basic machine learning concepts
5·14 days agoSo this just in Tech bro billionaire CEO is just like the others, be it Elon Musk or Steve Jobs they are posers who managed to put out a very persuasive mask of competence and knowledge but in the end they think they know a lot more than they do and are some of the worst people causing long term damage to society. Altman with his backtracking on open source and working for the public good for private gains, Elon Musk with everything he’s ever done, or Steve jobs being directly responsible for the lack or repairability of our own electronics or being able to install what you want on your own smartphone without going through Apple’s walled garden, Bill Gates making it almost impossible for competitors to rise through the 90’s and only now is Linux starting to see a rise in its userbase due to Microsoft’s own stupidity, tech bro CEOs have been the worst.
I am going to admit I enjoyed the series a lot 20 years ago, can’t say I’ve read ger stuff since the series ended and haven’t done anything to support her since the whole TERF thing came out and she started showing what sort of person she was. I recently picked up my old books to see if they held up and by god is it filled with bigoted stereotypes, Cho Chang (two last names) for the Chinese girl, Goblins being the obvious stereotype/alehory of Jews from a European who was “open minded” about Jews pre ww2 but still wanted to make sure that they deserved some of the bad shit that happened to them because they’re vicious even if unfair wizard laws were passed, the black auror being called Shackelbolt, the wezeleys being very much catholics for being poor with too many kids, the french being snobbish bafoons but classy, the Centaurs being either polytheists or gypsies, the list just goes on and Harry being the hero just gets rid of the head Nazi while leaving the institutions and culture in place, doesn’t even think about the slavery aspect except for Dobby, and he and Ron make fun of Hermione for her pushing for their freedom. I guess the reason why people enjoy the series is because the world feels somewhat real and magical because she put her imagination and bigotry into the story and never thought of trying to have the protagonists actually solve a major issue and will let it fester.

4·14 days agoEh he is a big failure, and failed up his whole life just like DJT. They managed to fail at being human beings with empathy, but musk is so awkward he failed to get an invite to the oedo parties.


The historical version of this was the ww2 airplane patch job stats, where american bombers returning after getting hit were hit in specific areas and the statistician had to explain that those who returned despite that damage meant those were not the places to reinforce but the other areas of the plane makeing it more survivable, or more recently how Santa Monica CA almost removed crosswalks because that was where the highest pedestrian mortally rates were. In both those cases the people making the assumptions missed the bigger picture, for the planes that those who got hit in more sensitive spots got downed and for pedestrians getting killed at crosswalks that was because that is where pedestrians cross the street most of the time, almost leading to more deaths.
