I'd vote for Jake

None of us are going to get to vote anymore

Guys, I know we all mean well, but no amount of activism and voting is going to make a difference anymore. They will suspend the Constitution and ensure we never have elections again. The Democratic experiment is over and we can't keep thinking that we'll be able to vote it out.

If you want to help, try and do it tangibly. Organize underground support networks for your queer and minority friends, seek or create covert resistance orgs, and have a realistic plan for pogroms.

Maybe after 9 trillion fucking dollars they'll realize that it's a scam and you can't achieve AGI let alone super intelligence by throwing infinite data at an LLM.

Just tilt the seat back a bit more?

Do whatever you want. I like setting goals for myself like building stasis chamber farms, maxing equipment, getting all the techs, building beautiful bases, collecting rare ships, etc.

A buddy of mine has a PHD in Cajun Fusion. Turns out, harnessing the power of the sun is only slightly more complex than a good gumbo. Who knew?

Late to the party but I used to work in the Auto industry.

The brands I trust in order: Toyota, Honda, Volkswagen, Mazda, Subaru.

That's the whole list. Brands outside this list tend to produce dogshit cars, IMHO.

Brands on the list are known for being fairly reliable and easy to maintain. Buy the lowest trim options for the least amount of tech if that's your prerogative.

I really want a set of movies or a long form TV series on the Butlerian Jihad after Dune 3.

This one is definitely going right to the ideas bin. I love new and creative ways to make the party question their sanity.

I went to a Hotel Furniture liquidator for some new furniture. Saw a good looking office chair and they only wanted $20 for it.

Brought that bad boy home and only then did I find out that they had sold me a new Herman Miller Aeron for only $20. Completely insane.

 

Here's a couple examples from my life:

  1. Safety Razor. I get a better shave and it's like $15 for 100 razor blades, which lasts me a couple years. Way way way better than the disposable multi-blade Gillette things, which sell 5 heads for $20.

  2. Handkerchiefs. I am prone to allergies, so instead of constantly buying disposable tissues, we now have a stack of handkerchiefs that can just be used a few times and then thrown in the wash. This has also saved me loads.

What about you?
