I feel old when I think of all the steps we had to take to start the most basic game. Rewind tape. Hit reset on the counter. Find index of program you want and fast forward to that position. Enter load command. Play on tape. Wait. By the time it was loaded and we started recess was over.

We had an Apple II gs at home and used PET computers in school. I remember loading Artillery into the computer from a cassette.

He is still going to back down. Cowards always cower. Keep calling him out or you risk normalizing his bullshit.

He is a bully and we have to FIGHT BACK. Hit him where it hurts.

Musk is the upper class being hurt by the Tesla hate.

Y’all ever see Wicked City?

The upper class. The rest of us are just plebs.

Super interesting. Definitely over my head.

My grandparents had cable and one of those old cable boxes from the 80s with the wood grain. I found out if I stuck a letter opener in juuuust so… unscramble all the things.

Funding. Funding for people with special needs. Funding for schools in disadvantaged areas. Funding that pays for teachers and teachers aids who help teachers do their jobs.

As someone else said they are making public education shit so two things happen. First the folks who own private schools get richer, second poor people have yet another disadvantage and as second class citizens, will be more inclined to let the rich fuck them over so they can survive.

a hungry dog is an obedient dog

Bumbling around in the dark killing creatures due to incompetence.

I’m listening to some of the claims he’s making in here and it’s ridiculous. “Oh it’s such a fresh take”… Naw man, that’s Djent.

Sure glad we didn’t elect Kamala.

Go to the wedding. That is a really big deal. After that don’t engage with him on politics. Maybe don’t engage at all. Show up for birthdays and maybe a holiday or two. Do the ‘quiet quitting’ of family interaction. You aren’t going to change their mind. I’ve been trying for 20+ years and it’s just gotten worse.

That seems like an incredibly dumb idea.

Capping rent makes more housing less likely. Are you suggesting government built housing?

Not allowing one or two private equity firms to own a lions share of the market would help.

Fires will happen, yes, they happen in cities too. San Bruno for example (hey that was PG&E too).

As long as you take the proper precautions (defensable space), fire retardant building materials, etc, the increased risks of living in a wooded area isn’t that great. Certainly not as great as is reflected in the rate increases.

Current firefighting techniques allow fires to take their course in unpopulated areas. Since we are a fire safe community we all have defencable space. The son of the folks at the top of the hill is a wildfire fighter. We know the risks and minimize them. Hell a couple of Teslas burned up and the fire was contained. Due to their batteries it probably took longer to put out than anything that grows around here.

You pretend like insurance companies know best, and ‘market forces’ are these perfect righting forces. I call bullshit.

I live in a ‘high risk area’ e.g. not a paved hellscape. We are a fire safe community.

My father built the house in 1981. Everyone in the community has been paying insurance premiums for 40 fucking years and because PG&E didn’t do necessary maintenance on their lines in paradise, the insurance companies have been pulling out.

SISU!
