Iran requested a meeting. A meeting with Qatar.

Gotta have a big lunch after skipping breakfast all the time.

Data centers are essential, but internet doesn’t count as a utility. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Fact is, we humans make quite surplus enough for everyone to make ends meet. Your job is a form of coercion, to make others money. That health care in the U.S. is tied to one’s job is evidence of that. That housing is dependent on mortgages being paid consistently or one risks homelessness is more evidence still. Taxes are coercion by governments to give credence to fiat currency, not because they need it to pay for goods and services… they could print money to pay for goods if that weren’t true. Point is jobs are coercion, and sex workers are under the same pressures I described above, enough that I doubt any sex worker is in it just for their love of the game.

Their gallery is (was?) in the basement of the Dedham movie theater, with a fake security cam taped to the wall, adjacent to a bathroom separated from the gallery by a thin wooden wall recessed from the gallery wall by a couple of feet. You could hear (and smell) the ambience as you perused the otherwise musty-smelling artwork. I hope it hasn’t changed.

As a teacher, I can confirm they will be twitching in the corner of the classroom faster than a just-out-of-college substitute teacher.

That article and those linked within are a goldmine. Thank you for sharing.

So despite the bad PR, their Superbowl ad was a big shout of “any takers?” for data harvesting companies and law enforcement? Truly, I am shocked and astounded. :shocked-pikachu:

I cast James Randi.

No S tier? I’ll wait until Chess 2 comes out.

I may be spitballing here, but it seems that neoliberals can’t imagine an anti-left campaign could be run by anything but a conservative (read: republican) entity. That neoliberalism is actually conservative doesn’t cross their minds (why would it? the mere existence of leftism is coopted or erased in American media). That the NYT would be part of that apparatus hasn’t crossed enough people’s minds, until now. Their façade is cracking.

I’d love to try it, Denuvo-free.

That’s girl salmon.

Hardly surprising when American science is bullied into silence by fundamentalists pushing YEC, abstinence, raw milk, vaccine denial, moon landing conspiracy… not to mention capitalists taking subsidies for faster broadband multiple billions of dollars, multiple times, over decades, and pocketing it… gutting science programs & support at the hands of political agenda has consequences.

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, those who don’t, those who thought this joke was in binary, and those who realize it works for any whole number base.

What are you going to do when they start? Protest?
