Ya, he's a dad now.

Shit, I just realized my NAS is less powerful than a modern Pi. It's only a dual core, 1.6GHz Atom with 1.8GB ram.

The other 64% believe that they will be be millionaires any day now, just one more scratch ticket!

edit: wow, I'm gonna leave my drunk math as stands

If there were 2lb spiders that taste like lobster roaming around on land I would sure as fuck be out in the woods with a net every weekend.

When using solar directly to heat water how much more efficient can you get than a black container?

Yeah, that's pretty much it. I don't want to use a kit/show car for commuting.

Nope, I have a hard enough time thinking about my consciousness being "the same person" even after sleeping. No way am I getting taken apart and cloned by choice.

Arthur C. Clarke covered it in his first published story.

I don’t travel by wire! You see, I helped invent the thing!

Average users view the web raw, this will go totally unnoticed by >90% of users. If web-drm becomes a thing then it will be easy enough to block those sites and add them to the list of media that is morally acceptable to pirate.

Electrician here, came to upvote, realized I should be posting. My formal computer training ended with Java and qBasic in 2003.

When plastics were first introduced to consumers it was sold as indestructible, it will never wear out, never degrade! People were actually concerned at the time, why anyone buy disposable products that never break down, won't they just pile up forever?

After much lobbying the concept of recycling plastics was introduced to help consumers stop worrying about all this indestructible waste and help push the sales of cheap plastic products. Your mom has the right idea, not buying it in the first place is the only way to drive demand down.

unwilling to stick it out at a toxic job

Thank fuck. It's going to take a while but maybe this is the end of diskless middle management generating endless bullshit work to justify their own existence. Almost every job has been mired down with so much box-ticking, pointless, ass-kissing, ego-stroking, bullshit that the actual work like nursing or construction governing a country has become secondary.

When I to a 5 min repair job at work I have to hand write a report, make a photo copy, give the report to another person who then types it into a system to which I do not have access. This was implemented by, and is strictly enforced by, the boomer and gen-x management which has seen the factory floor for less than 40 hours of their entire career.

I can't wait until the bulk of the boomers end up in understaffed, under funded old-age care and can't figure out why nobody wants to work any more. It'll make for some funny Fox News.

They could easily set up a permanent library of ALL previous titles for sale along with emulators for each new console they release. Nintendo could re-sell you every game they have ever made every time they drop new hardware, but nope, just a big fuck you.
