"hydration source" and it's 1 bottle of water and a jetboil
"Cold and wet weather gear" and it's a smock and a waffle top
This is barely enough gear for a range day

Every day on X some boomer tries to flex by telling me he has his own private range.
I imagine this is what they're always doing on them.

@RealRiddimHours @misraetel Lot of people don’t realize that we automated away millions of jobs without humanoid machines. Some of my favorite examples are combines and shipping containers. In this case a scan tunnel would do the trick.

@misraetel Now imagine if we stopped caring about making them people shaped and we got it to like 1000x faster

A really trippy thing to realize is that it is likely nominally easy in the short term to update this robot to move 10 times faster with the same degree of precision.
There’s absolutely no reason to think that robots will be limited by human movement speed or precision constraints.
It is entirely realistic that in the next 2 to 3 years, we can have humanoid robots performing factory work at 10 times the speed of human workers.
The consequences for how much this will improve our standards of living are absolutely massive.

@atKenNelson @TequilaKid900 @jerseymikes @Chilis Whenever I’ve tried to door dash I put the meal in my cart, see the final price then grab my keys to head out.

@TequilaKid900 @jerseymikes @Chilis I don't know. I'm well off and it hurts to see those prices.
Yet I see doordashes and them eating out a lot. Credit cards I guess.

$21 @jerseymikes subs cost me $0 because I won't pay that for a big puff of shitty bread and barely any meat. Instead, I do @Chilis amazing $11 3 for me with a drink, soup, entree & a server that's helped me for years.

Chipotle burritos cost $17 because the market supports $17 burritos If everyone said, I'm not paying $17 for a burrito, fuck that, Chipotle burritos wouldn't cost $17. Chipotle burritos cost me $0.00. Do you know why? I choose not to purchase them. Is this clocking at all?

Tbh this could work really well. Black Bond is fine but doesn't really take the character anywhere whereas "007, our man in Hong Kong" is a premise with legs

No and I view the argument as profoundly retarded.
"Offering only a top 5% income job is getting us nothing but evil, lazy people.
But if we increase it to a top 3% income job it'll unlock this magic unseen, unaccounted for, and unproven to exist group of people who actually have our best interests at heart."
Like come on.

Are we still doing classified service records in 2026?

Massie challenger Ed Gallrein says his record is classified "top secret" but that Trump has seen it and "knows what I did for you in uniform" and "knows what I'll do for you in Washington." Full story on who Gallrein is and what this race means: kenklippenstein.com/p/iran-war-vs-…

When Americans:
1) Confess they've never been through most European airports and
2) Don't know what happens when these machines get old
StripMallGuy@realEstateTrent
I flew out of Newark Airport this morning and experienced something that is obviously going to become standard everywhere within the next few years. There was no TSA agent checking IDs. No pulling anything out of my pocket. I walked up to this new machine, it scanned my face, the gate opened, and I kept walking. There was no line because the process moved so fast. It felt like stepping a few years into the future, and it was awesome!

@ShariBaby1964 These survey questions are vague AF
What’s an assault weapon?
What’s a high capacity magazine?
What does ban mean?
Are there warrantless searches?

First, the Second Amendment is not subject to opinion polling.
Second, these polls would look quite different if the actual language of the bills were polled rather than these vague questions.
We know, we polled it.

Are we still doing the sheepdog thing in 2026?
Ken Klippenstein@kenklippenstein
Thomas Massie challenger Ed Gallrein, a former SEAL Team 6 member, calls civilians "sheep." "There's three kinds of people in the world: there are sheep, there are sheep dogs, and there's wolves. Okay? SEALs are sheep dogs. We don't care what letter jacket the adversary wears; iff they're bad people and they mean, mean harm to our sheeps, we're on it." "There's an interesting dynamic that I observe that we, we block out everything else. It's noise. We don't care."

@atKenNelson And of those 30 jobs maybe 1 is at a decent pay. Most are just swapping out hard drives.
English
Data center in my town for 17 years uses enough power for 10% of our homes, has < 30 jobs across 2 other states, & provides little tax revenue. We'd be way better off without it. The mayor & county commissioners that benefitted from it's build are long gone. We are still here competing with it for power / water.
Ken Nelson@atKenNelson
As example is the data center in St. George uses 4mw, enough for 3000 households or 10% of entire Washington County, but the entire company that runs it has 30 employees across 3 locations (UT ID OK). That's a lot of infrastructure competition in a very hot place with high water and electricity prices. It's been here 17 years and is not ai focused. We would "win" if it went away and we got 10% less demand on our i frastructue and we wouldn't miss the jobs or their small tax contribution.

@_JesseCinco Another issue, ports become much harder and even tho CQB bros never go prone it becomes a literal pain in the neck.

Relevant post from early February.
Jesse Cinco@_JesseCinco
They say: “It’s a CQB gun, that’s why you have a 4.1” height over bore optic. Just know your hold over.” We say: Having to calculate that hold over at speed is slow for anybody, including the guy who designed it as shown in the video below. Lower height over bore is better for speed and accuracy in CQB and thereby across carbine gunfighting ranges.
