Aww, did Elmo not get the memo about how Tesla are planning to DOGE his sorry ass? Did he only discover it via the media? Now he knows how all those federal employees feel! Not that he’s capable of empathy or life lessons.

Oh God, please not Newsom! The only thing that two-faced, opportunistic, spineless shit heel deserves is to be tarred and feathered!

Ooh, he’d better watch out or he’ll be on the receiving end of a luke-warm letter of dissatisfaction from Chuck Schumer.

“ThEy’Re BoTh ThE sAmE!!1!”

Not this idiotic argument again! The Democrats are definitely flawed as a political party. They have many large blindspots like this one. But they are miles away on a number of key issues from the GOP. And if you don’t see that then you are part of the problem that got us into this clusterfuck.

My unsolicited advice? Don’t feed the troll any more. Your summary on this post was very clear and understandable, and makes sense. The person you are arguing with is either trolling, being deliberately obtuse, or is just plain stupid. I’m assuming it’s the first of those three options. But who knows.

From the interviews I’ve been seeing, at least some of them voted against Trump due to concerns about bullshit like this. I expect the majority did vote for him, in which case yes, karma’s a bitch. But a) we shouldn’t be treating them as a single voting block that all vote the same way, and b) regardless of the schadenfreude we get watching the Trump supporters among them freaking out now, there are grave knock-on effects for consumers looming - including those consumers who didn’t vote for Trump.

Ah yes, more antivax nonsense. Just what the world needs right now. Especially with the growing measles outbreak due to people not vaccinating their kids.

And of course it features Margarine Trailer Queen. Whenever there’s an insane story it turns out that troll has stumbled out from under her bridge to be the center of attention.

And the globe Earth and the moon landing conspiracies! What about that whole pizzaria blood drinking thing too! Piss all the tax payer money down the drain on stupid shit!

DOGE could report it as money saved and then abruptly remove those line items from their website list.

I’ve met Mormons who don’t consider Catholics to be Christian, which is pretty fucking hilarious.

ETA: Speaking of Catholics who try to cozy up to the right-wing evangelical Protestant movement because they have common causes but don’t realize they are being used… The Mormons are even further up the enemies list of the right-wing Protestants than the Catholics. And they too don’t seem to be aware of this. Basically if the likes of MTG get their wish to crush gays, trans, feminists, atheists, and liberals under their boot heels, they will turn on themselves. Starting with the non-Christian religions, then the JWs, then the Mormons, then the Catholics. They will go with the lowest hanging fruit.

Is he past the 1 Scaramuchi mark yet?

Must have been that greasy Samsquatch!

Not if you’re willing and able to pay an arbitrary $30 a month extra. That lifts the oh-so essential data cap. Yeah… fuck Comcast, or whatever they are calling themselves this month.

I doubt there will be any consequences. Pretty sure that was one of the incentives for their $1m donation to Trump’s inauguration fund.

I mean, they shouldn’t be buying Boeing jets in general, just from a safety perspective. The tariffs might actually save China some air accidents.

I’ve found the same thing.

Whenever I ask an LLM for a pointer, I end up spending just as long (if not longer) refining the question than just figuring it out myself it’s doing a search on SO it in other online resources.

But even the IDE integration is getting annoying. I write a class with some functionality baked in, and the whole time it’s promoting me with a shit load of irrelevant suggested code. I get the class done, then I go to spin up a unit test. It knows which class I’m trying to create a unit test for, which is cool. But then the suggested code is usually completely wrong or it’s much more convoluted than it needs to be. In the latter case, the first several characters of the suggested code is good, but then there’s several lines after it of shite. And hitting tab injects all of it in, which then requires me to delete it all. So almost every time I end up hitting escape anyway.

I’ve heard a few people rave about ‘vibe coding’ - usually people with no or little programming experience. I have to assume that generated code was either for very simple atomic actions and/or it’s spaghettified, inefficient garbage.

Aww. Little Genocide Jr found an old geography book! Bless him.

Wait… You guys have all been playing video games all day?! Well damn it!

When you’re rich they let you do anything.
