Look up the War Powers Resolution. As long as congress is notified within 48 hours, there’s a free pass for 60 days with another 30 for withdrawal before any approval is granted.

Hire back everyone with retroactive pay, then let the leopard finish eating the execs’ faces by firing them and replacing with AI (except, don’t bother with the AI part)

I’m a contributor to some of those in-store stress tests. I’m also quite the opposite of ol’ Clark Howard “willing to pay less to get less” which is really a contributing factor to enshitification. If quality is ensured, I’m willing to value it higher. That definitely requires discipline and a willingness to go without, rather than settling. Here’s hoping maybe you can find a “they don’t make them like they used to” snowblower at an estate sale or something.

Arctic is great, but it appears to be abandonware at this point. I have occasional problems with it failing to fetch posts, now, too. Haven’t pinned down why.

Brute force hacking

Seconded on Organic Maps’ UI. So much potential. Will watch and hope it gets better.

Well, I’m pleasantly surprised to see it follows the Bachman (King) plot better than the Arnold version, which makes it far and away superior in that it makes the dystopian lack of privacy so much closer to reality today. I enjoyed all of the Bachman books more than most of King’s other works. But, that said, it has been long enough since I read them that I know I won’t be ejected from my suspension of disbelief by any deviations from the novel this movie takes. I do wish that Hollywood would stop the remake merry go round, but if this is an improvement over the 80s cheesy action flick, then I probably will still enjoy this one.

I’ll call this uplifting news.

The headline didn’t need a qualifier after the “wrong” bit.

Each time I read another story about them finding how to regrow teeth, I’m reminded of Star Trek 4 where the little old woman grew a new kidney thanks to McCoy giving her a pill and proclaiming they’re in the dark ages.

You needn’t take it any further, sir. You’ve proved to me that all this ultraviolence and killing is wrong, wrong, and terribly wrong. I’ve learned me lesson, sir. I’ve seen now what I’ve never seen before. I’m cured! Praise god!

This is the way. Cut the second to last banana below the stem. Works perfectly.

/c/LostLemmings ?

It seems you still have a lot of fucks to give. I’m tired of it too. Some days I’m all out of fucks.

Well, first they’ll need to dig up and reanimate the corpse of Jobs. It’s amazing to see how they repeat the same failure track when he’s not pushing them to innovate. Even when he was (back) in the top dog seat, they still fell behind the competition and took forever to come up with features that other companies had been doing for years.

You monster!

I only need about tree fiddy

The irony…

This is the part many people fail to grasp about corporate taxes, tariffs, and fees in general. The corporations are just tax collectors for the added burden on the general public. There’s no altruistic integrity going on in the corporate world that says, “we shouldn’t pass this cost on to the consumer, we have to pay our fair share.” Shouting about raising taxes on corporations is begging for consumers to pay more taxes.
