@WilliamShatner It's the complete opposite of what you're saying William Shatner. That kiss defied the political correctness of the day and embraced controversy for the sake of sound moral principle. Woke is unprincipled. It's vacuous political correctness and cynical virtue signaling.
English
During the first airing of my Star Trek series where a kiss was objectionable; many southern stations pulled the episode & condemned the show. Using today’s vernacular it would absolutely be called“woke DEI crap”because it went against “norms” of society for its time. Not a lot seems to have changed.🤷🏼😑

@JustAnAlgorithm @Muinchille A $200 Claude subscription costs Anthropic $2000. You don't need to be Donald Knuth or Keynes to know this is going to burst.

@Muinchille The idiotic hubris of people with no technical knowledge of AI but with certainty in direction is stunning.

Really, the sooner, the better. The longer this data Ponzi scheme goes on the worse the crash at the end.

@1bobnoho @Eng_china5 If they pay in Yuan there is no problem to solve.

Idk, Iran does NOT own the waterway, the strait is indeed an international waterway and Iran is indeed extorting the "international" waterway for money. Iran has no international right to block the waterway, this seems like it should be more of a NATO or BRICS problem than USA's.
English
BREAKING NEWS:
Japan has agreed to pay Iran in Chinese yuan in exchange for the unhindered passage of its ships through the Strait of Hormuz.
It appears that all countries wishing for their ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz may be required to pay Iran in yuan.

Don’t worry. I’m still here taking care of business. Without the ability to roundhouse with the same precision.

@Momofabearkat @amconmag @RepThomasMassie @RepBoebert It's ok dawg, Trump obliterated their nuclear abilities like six months ago or something.
English
@amconmag @RepThomasMassie @RepBoebert So are you okay with a nuclear Iran dropping a bomb in the USA? Stop with your holier than thou attitude.
English
Rep. Boebert is a NO on $200 billion to fund the Iran War:
“I am so tired of spending money elsewhere. I’m tired of the Industrial War Complex getting our hard-earned tax dollars. I’ve got folks in Colorado who can’t afford to live. We need America First policies right now.”

@lilbabygandhi @ChadNotChud Have you tried asking grok what your opinion should be about that?

@Independent_ie Glad that Declan could clear that up for the people of Ireland who thought their opinion was their own. Sound

@blaiklockBP @Ultralasagne Why do you care what random set of characters you are copying? Do you need it to be memorable?

Booking . com booked over 1 billion nights in 2024 but manages to have a simple 8-digit number for each booking.
What idiot of a lazy civil servant designed the booking numbers for the NHS?
How is someone old or on the phone or with an accent ever supposed to tell anyone else this mess of a number?

@Truth_Search @RepBera How exactly is the US subsidising Europe?
English
@RepBera We need to withdraw from NATO - why is the US subsidizing support for Europe?
English
President Trump is wrong. He cannot unilaterally withdraw the United States from NATO.
Trump’s own Secretary of State authored and successfully passed an amendment while in the Senate to prevent the president from doing exactly this.

Reporter: Are you thinking about getting out of NATO? Trump: Well I'm disappointed in NATO. I don't need congress for that decision. As you probably know, I can make that decision myself.

@GuntherEagleman No way we want those little communist antisemite Jew haters in our country anymore. I’ve been to Ireland many times, and I will never be back.

IRISH PRIME MINISTER WANTS IMMIGRATION PATHWAY to America: "I'd love if we could develop a legal pathway between the US and Ireland into the future."

@Rodger6Waters @BulwarkOnline "our country", go on and fuck back off to Liverpool, Brit.

Irish PM Micheál Martin: "Europe is still a very good place to live…Our economy is going well because we're attracting a lot of people from Europe and beyond to work legally…I think sometimes Europe gets characterized wrongly in terms of it being overrun."

@MaskedDefender @BulwarkOnline Did you find any other random numbers while you were up there rummaging inside your arsehole?

@BulwarkOnline 80% of Irish think too many migrants in Ireland.

The pretty grim video doing the rounds on here tonight is of an incident in Cabinteely, south Dublin. Gardai say victim is seriously ill in hospital.

@DarkSummer777 @mickthehack Imagine seeing that video and having a preference. Sick.

@mickthehack Any news on the background? Are they home grown or imported?

@evisdrenova Wrong hire, not wrong tools.
A 10x dev makes nix work. A 0.1x dev makes Slack an excuse.
You hired someone who optimized for feeling special instead of shipping.
English
When I ran my startup, we hired a guy who insisted on using nix, a random linux distro and his own custom tooling.
He was the most unproductive person I have ever worked with.
He spent more time trying to get Zoom working on his Linux distro than he did writing code.
