“Death” would be the noun, “die” the (intransitive) verb. “Dead” would be the adjective, i.e. the condition.

Although it has to be said that there’s a lot of flexibility and I’m pretty sure you could find valid ways to use each of them in all cases.

Musk breaks silence

WHAT silence? That asshole has been the source of a rising crescendo of bullshit covering an increasingly broad range of topics on which he is absolutely unqualified to comment for years. The miracle would be if he managed to shut the fuck up for several consecutive moments.

I stand corrected, this speaks to my robot soul

“Polished” is a generous word for it. I think you might be mistaking generic plastic gloss for polish, though. AI writing is so formulaic, it’s like looking at a repeating texture in a video game. It writes lyrics like a five year old, too - very simple, entirely conventional, no creativity. Nothing new.

Bruce Lee, Archmage!

Here’s how you know it’s not ready: AI hasn’t replaced a single CEO.

I’m sorry to say you’re incorrect. I have family who receive social security cheques, and they will not blame Trump and Musk if the cheques don’t arrive.

I understand, I was in exactly the same position. Then my battery swelled and wouldn’t hold a charge at all, so I couldn’t restore anything anyway, and my last backup was inaccessible (I know I know, test your backups, but like I started this post with I’m in the same boat of all work and no time for me).

Losing everything was remarkably freeing. Just switch all your 2FA to Aegis as has been suggested, and save anything you want to back up over the wire, then take the plunge. You won’t lose everything like I had to, and you won’t regret the switch 😊

antithetical to the spirit of silicon valley

Tell me you haven’t been paying attention without telling me you haven’t been paying attention.

“Death to plastic”

“Here drink from this plastic-lined can” (https://www.plasticstoday.com/business/liquid-death-may-murder-your-thirst-but-it-won-t-kill-plastic-no-matter-what-the-ads-say)

Good thing there’s no more FEMA!

Wait, no that was a terrible mistake.

Nobody said lithium mining isn’t environmentally damaging. The question here is whether it’s more so than fossil fuels. Are you contending lithium mining is more destructive than climate change? Because I think you’re going to have an uphill battle if you are. And if you’re not contending that, your sources are irrelevant.

I believe her. It doesn’t change my extremely negative opinion of her, her positions, or her actions by even a single iota; but I believe her. Until proven otherwise.

Hell yeah, talk about collective action! I’m sure the reports from this thread weren’t the only ones, and it was probably already under review, but every pebble counts in a landslide. Thanks for letting all of us know 😊

Nice, thanks for you contribution! 🙌

edit edit: apparently they took it down because they were concerned he wouldn’t ship, not because they enforce their own guidelines. I’d say “suck a dick, Shopify” but that would give blowjobs a bad name

Edit: The store is gone, good work everyone!

Whaaaaaaaaat the fuck. That is a Shopify store, and their terms of service explicitly state

You can’t breach the social contract of commerce.
There are activities we don’t allow on the platform because they breach the social contract of commerce. This means you can’t call for, or threaten, violence against specific people or groups. And you can’t sell products that facilitate intentional self-harm.

~~Pretty sure this shirt calls for violence against Jewish people. Anyone who cares to join me in reporting it can do so here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/report-a-merchant~~

Ahh, we need an /s for deadpan. I’d use it often. I appreciate you taking the time to explain though! Sometimes, I need it 😅

the only fish walking on land

If that were how evolution works… maybe. Unfortunately it doesn’t, at all, so definitely not.

partially responsible

Those fuckwits were so fucking loud and so fucking sure of themselves that they don’t get to hide behind half-measures now. They get to enjoy full responsibility; I lay it at the feet of each and every one of them.
