we need an opposition party.

We're living through an extended recession statistically masked by the AI bubble.

Liberal values can't be preserved in the midst of a Pharaonic distribution of wealth. The only way to defend liberal values is to fight for socialism.

I love desktop linux. I've used it on and off since 2000. Even with Valve's excellent work on gaming, there's still whole software categories that require Windows. Pro audio softwa…

I love my Libra 2 reader, but I only use it to read epub files from questionable websites. I would pay for books if they were available as DRM-free epubs.

The only previous option was not paying for books. This change at least creates the potential for a path to pay for books, if publishers accept it.

This is a step in the right direction. Now publishers need to take it up. DRM-free is a precondition for me buying digital books personally. Practically no major digital bookstore …

The ability to sideload on Android is the main reason I've never bought an iPhone. This is a terrible move from Google.

It is alarming for credit card companies to take on a politically censorious role that supersedes legal activity. This really kicked off in 2021 when MasterCard started imposing re…

This headline is a lie. It's not a matter of being "too expensive for customers", it's a matter of undesirable profit margin for the company.

It's time for our geriatric political class to be retired.

I'm pretty sure the writers at FT just don't know where the cool shit is.

Excellent write up! I also have a G15 (GA503RM), and the post made me wonder if I ought to be doing this as well. The temperature improvement makes a strong case. How much of a dan…

is there a mux switch?

this is resolved in 555 (currently running 555.58.02). my asus zephyrus g15 w/ 3060 is looking real good on Fedora 40. there's still optimizations needed around clocking, power, an…

Liberal abandonment of Assange for 10+ years was completely fucking shameful.

If you make any kind of music, you should try a modern MPC. It's like the 8-track recorder of the 21st century.

SQ64 is such a mess. My worst gear purchase.

MPC One/Live/X is an incredible platform. I would like to build an open source alternative.

Israeli settlers are conducting a pogrom against Palestinians with the protection/participation of IDF soldiers as we speak. In one incident, 2 in the West Bank were shot and kille…

Aren't SpaceX launch explosions big enough already?

The problem is you only see "terrorism" on the side you already oppose. You don't see terrorism in the erection of a separation wall and 15 years of military bombardment. That's wh…
