ROSEBUD IS THE SLED.
I run the FBXL Network including FBXL Search, FBXL Social, FBXL Lemmy, FBXL Lotide, and FBXL Video. Mostly for my own use because after having my heart broken by too many companies I want to be in control of my own world.
I also wrote The Graysonian Ethic: Lessons for my unborn son, now on Amazon
I’ll spoil it for everyone instead then!
ROSEBUD IS THE SLED.
Behold. Everything’s at the bottom of the sea. Gone is the magical kingdom of Zeal, and all the dreams and ambitions of its people. I once lived there…But I was another person then.
And everything else in the damn game.
There’s a button in settings to not show bot accounts. I clicked it when I realized how many posts were just reddit mirror bots

Not all, but quite a few in that 20% range.
As we saw in Afghanistan, drones are great but you need boots on the ground to hold territory.
I’m concerned about the first application of crispr to make super soldiers.
A few genes flipped and the army coming out the other side would be terrifying.
Planting a tree isn’t going to war (and unionizing is in a sense mobilizing for a war). Both you and the seed want the tree to grow. If you go to war and the time is not right, then you will be wiped out and history will be written by the victors.
You can blame him for the stupidity of how he engaged in them, but a lot of people seem to think that if nothing else had happened there never would have been layoffs.
Big Tech got fat during the pandemic, it couldn’t have kept on growing as people started leaving the house again.
I’m saying blame him for the things he actually did. Just like I said I said.
It’s turning into a recurring gag for me to see another news article about some website (like reddit, for example) crashing and burning and my response is “Why would Elon Musk do this?”
Literally speaking anytime that you print something in PLA and don’t burn it it’s sequestering carbon, but that’s not exactly impressive.
I know it’s easy to just rag on twitter, but I think that everyone needs to remember that a lot of the problems Twitter is facing are also problems that the entire industry is facing.
Ad rates are down across the board. You hear YouTubers talking about it, you here people who run websites talking about it, and that’s just the way things are.
Everyone got really pissed off at Elon for the mass layoffs, but everyone seems to forget that every other company also did layoffs just a few months later.
In short, blame them for the stuff that he actually did, not systemic trends that affect everyone.
I think that there’s a reason for it, and I think that that reason is that they’ve been selling battery vehicles for 25 years and they know full well that there’s going to be major problems.
The reality is that until maybe this year or the year before, these were expensive toys for the 1% to show off about how virtuous they are with their $100,000 sports cars that were saving the planet.
Toyota in particular has been dealing with battery management and motors for 30 years. They’ll be fine.
Unresolved problems of EVs include extreme cold performance without a heated garage, battery degradation and the massive social, economic, and environmental consequences as people end up with useless used cars you can’t fix, grid problems in the event of mass adoption, and the realities of longer distance travel in a car that takes a long time to charge.
Markets have gotten a lot of things wrong in the past 20 years since the amount of money in the monetary system is distorting asset values and causing bubbles. FTX and Theranos being two great examples, but far from the only ones.
I said this a few years ago but it’s becoming increasingly true now: If EVs become the hot new thing, I fully expect traditional automakers to come out on top. Particularly companies like Toyota who are really really good at building cars.
Thing is, it still isn’t totally clear that EVs in the form of the traditional automobile will be the best thing. There’s a good chance that all the major unsolved problems with them will cut the technology off.
A few different things including what you’re talking about.
Tesla would be one of the smallest car companies if you actually went by the fundamentals of the company though, and instead it has a market cap so high it covers the entire world’s car industry combined.
In the fable of the and and the grasshopper the grasshopper needed food stored up more than ever when the winter came, but the time to be preparing for winter was the spring, summer, and fall when you plant, tend, and harvest. By the time winter comes it’s too late.
The best time for someone with a variable rate mortgage to refinance as fixed rate would have been 2020. You didn’t need a fixed rate back then because variable rate was in some cases less than 1%, but you need one now because mortgages are around 7%. If you refinance now it won’t help.
The time to unionize was when labor had power by being in demand. 2020 would have been a good time, but maybe even the mid 2010s.
I checked before posting, and yes, many European nations do have youth unemployment in the 20% range.
Which makes sense. Companies still need people, but if it’s more expensive to get low-end workers you just won’t hire entry level workers unless they’ve proven themselves beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Don’t many European countries have like 20% youth unemployment?
No offense, but it seems like a really dumb idea to unionize in the middle of mass industry layoffs.
Maybe you would do it when things are going good, but if everyone around you is getting laid off and you unionize, it almost seems self-evident who’s going to get laid off next.
Is it illegal? Probably. Are they going to get away with it? Probably.
Everyone should remember that big tech companies aren’t your friend.
Perforated galvanized plumbers strapping. While most of my equipment is wall mountable, I used exactly this sort of thing for all the power supplies.
Likely similar to whatever you’re planning to use with the plastic strap, but more metal is more betterer
