I prefer to unfold a map to read it, as opposed to doing origami just to figure out where I’m going.

Beat me to it.

Navigation isn’t the only purpose of maps. You can display geographical, social, economic, and a whole host of other datasets on to maps. And since maps with fidelity to lat/long lines are no longer a requirement for navigation, there’s a good argument for accurately displaying relative positioning and size.

After 30 years of marriage, my wife floated the idea of turning this on. I looked at her like she had two heads.

Why would anyone be willfully surveilled? You know its not just your partner that has access to that data when you have location services enabled.

Same.

The Chinese will build their own pipeline after they retake Siberia.

I enjoy the fuck out of him being trolled by the Canadian electric truck manufacturer Edison Motors as well.

You don’t fix this by lecturing young men. You fix it by giving them a sense of purpose and identity that doesn’t rely on putting someone else down.

Sounds like they need the shit slapped out of them.

Maybe they should just take the advice that we’ve been giving to women and minorities for the last 100 years and tell them that if they want to succeed they should just fucking work harder at it.

That’s exactly where all the value is. Selling people’s fucking genetic information. What makes it even more valuable is that it can be used against all subsequent descendants of the person that willingly gave it up. Do a DNA test like this and you’re selling out your entire family.

Thats how the murder of a Serbian devolved into a world war

Archduke Franz Ferdinand was Austrian.

The USDA was certainly not spared the doge axe, they closed offices all along what will soon be the battlefront in this war.

One of the security upsides to plex is that any number of people can log in with the same credential.

That means that while Plex can harvest information- what account, what’s being watched, IP address, device and player identifier- It doesn’t know who to attach that information to. So you can get dozens or maybe hundreds of users polluting the same account with watch information. Less useful information to be sure.

I love that this guy is in an Ivy League school to meet his ‘co-founder’, when it’s hard to believe that someone that knows nothing and is intellectually incurious could ever found anything of value.

Depends on your definition of ‘war’. They’ve definitely been in rightist America’s ear about abandoning NATO since 2016.

I would have never imagine that Russia would have won the Cold War, let alone like this. I guess all of those decades of honing their misinformation and kompromat skills really came in handy.

As a guy not big on the whole consent thing, I doubt Trump understands Never particularly well.

Temu Trump

Well that’s bullshit. And I’m from rural Alberta

Watching them sing the anthem full-throated during the 4 nations was a sight to behold.

We wouldn’t even have to fight that hard, just deny resources. February would whittle down the numbers quite nicely.
