I always thought she'd be sent to the Agricultural Corps, but now I see why she wasn't. It's not that Master Yoda feels sorry for her. It' that she's already passed the test the rest of us will be facing — (Whie, about Scout.)

The comic text is from '3gatsu no Lion' it has been in my Jedi-isms folder for years I was so excited to use it with this theme T_T

Yes, Sam Altman really said that (the intelligence is utility quote). The response to this absolutely cannot be meek acceptance.

I think that if you had enough daughters AND played your cards right you could spring Mambo Number Five out at the EXACT right gathering and shatter your entire family's trust forever

The secret is to name them out of order with the lyrics so by the time anyone catches on it's too late

For me personally the ideal gathering would be my funeral

teaboot

A little bit for Monica, she's my wife

A little bit for Erica, for her strife

My books all go to Rita, cause she reads

My greenhouse goes to Tina, she plants trees

The furniture is Sandra's, on my lawn

Jewelry for Mary, she can pawn

Ashes go to Jessica, that's my plan

A little bit of me inside a can (ah!)

fluff-e-boy

Need to be taken apart and reassembled like a broken watch . Not in a sex way I just think they should put my joints together right this time

primarybufferpanel

Ohhh the fantasy of all your bones being put into one of those ultrasonic cleaning baths they use for jewelry. All the pain coming clouding out like dirt. Then carefully reassembled and joints oiled and then it would all just work perfectly and painlessly...

Like, I know that's not what's wrong with me but I think we should try just to be sure

that Brian Eno quote about how whatever you find most repulsive about a medium (film grain, record scratches/fuzz, CDs skipping) will be the first thing you try and emulate once that medium is obsolete because it's "the sign of a moment too powerful for the medium assigned to contain it".... man.......

funkylilpunk

“Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them.” -Brian Eno

does anyone in the new republic know what din's name is or are they all just going around saying "the mandalorian. no, not general syndulla's daughter. the shiny one."

Okay. I am spending too much time on here. I have so many other things I would rather be using my time on, and scrolling on here for diminishing dopamine hasn't helped.

With this reason, and continuing enshittification of the mobile app (specifically, I am getting really pissed off that the ads keep auto playing audio).

I will go back to using the web version only, and only once a week, if that.

Too much shit have I do be doing.

noelle-ism

i stopped giving a shit about "legit" purchases of digital products after i spent $80 on the entire Dark Horse collection of Trigun/Trigun Maximum ebook mangas, learning that I only got access to reading them through a proprietary website ereader function, couldn't download them, and couldn't get a refund, and then literally only a year later, getting an e-mail stating that Dark Horse was shutting down that part of their company and I wouldn't even be able to read them anymore. Fuck that

The entirety of Western Digital’s 2026 hard drive output is already sold to data centers and won’t have consumer stock until at least 2027

aholefilledwithtwigs

Thanks to data center demands, Western Digital has committed all of its HDDs for at least the rest of the year.

WD makes more money selling drives to data centers that then lease you the storage as a subscription

aholefilledwithtwigs

I don’t think there’s enough coordination and cooperation for this to be a ‘force people to rely on cloud storage’ conspiracy buuuut i do think all the players involved are smart enough to know that’s what’s going to happen and have no reason to stop it

Plus, with WD specifically, it’s 7 customers. Not 7 retailers, but 7 corporate consumers. Imagine being a company with close to a $100 billion market cap and for the next fiscal year you have to only deal with 7 clients. Why on earth would you prioritize consumer sales when you’ve got these dream clients beating down your door

teratocybernetics

Your next PC upgrade might be a subscription

idk it may have started as an accident but i wouldn't for a second believe they're not actively shooting for that now

I also try not the engage in "this has always been the plan" type thinking. But the second that SaaS proved to be profitable, the moment Adobe proved that you can hold software hostage for a monthly fee by changing the contract and license and people will stick with it because the switching costs are too high, this was the logical conclusion. I don't believe in a shadowy cabal sitting in smoky rooms planning out every detail of the economy half a century in advance, but I do believe in the rent-seeking pressures of the private ownership economy and in the willingness of those in power to just keep pushing a little more each year to see what they can get away with.
