Yeah, credit where its due. People don’t generally think of Texas or West Virginia as having their shit together, but here we are.
Floor 2 is a fucking mystery. Its too low to walk around the perimeter, but they didn’t install a floor in the middle. There’s not enough room for insulation between the sun-beaten roof and the living space, but that might be less of an issue because of the huge holes in the trim letting in a steady flow of outside air. That vaulted ceiling also means the house will lose all its heat in the Winter.
There’s no window or exhaust fan in the bathroom.
It looks like there are holes in the outside wall where windows could be installed, but there are metal flaps there instead. Best case scenario is there is no wall insulation between those flaps and the interior drywall, getting wet and doing biology.

What’s Germany’s plan to secure the EU merchant fleet against Iranian anti-ship missiles, fired by Iranian proxies in Yemen, without help from USA or Israel?
Those rockets miss, but the plane in front dropped flares just prior, so the pilot may have believed a heat seeking missile was launched.
The wing breaks off at the engine. Was the engine hit with a missile?
Those engines are 50 years old and probably haven’t been getting their regular maintenance on account of the 3 day special military operation going a bit over schedule. Maybe unmaintained SU-25s just randomly have their wings fall off sometimes?
Did he ever have credibility to begin with? Gun control is a non-starter, and that’s his claim to fame.

This article seems to describe one of the things an attacker can do once they already have access to your device - a method for maintaining access that can evade detection. Did I miss the part where this article explains how a machine gets compromised in the first place, or does it just presume your machine is already somehow infected?
Those poor drone operators are going to be chasing this dragon for the rest of their careers.
My guess is the month is most relevant to an agrarian society. It tells you where you are in the growing cycle that the entire culture revolves around. The day and year offer little practical utility to a 19th century farmer.
I unironically love parking lots & garages, and feel like a city without parking is a prison.
If I had my druthers, existing bike lanes would be turned into medians, side of road parking would become bike lanes, and enough real estate converted to parking garages to meet peak demand.
Sharing a bus or train with a lot of other people every day isn’t appealing because of the way a lot of other people are.
At that time, the first second of eternity will have passed.
We’ll be back the next time protons happen.
There is no escape.
yeah, just serve up some r34 animated rats and put cocaine in the beverages

Why was the aristocrat university getting welfare checks in the first place?
There’s a lot to unpack here.
Lets start with the attempt to define “usefulness” as the degree to which connection to humans happens. Human connection on the internet has always been illusory. Yet we still find utility in it.
“Trusted sources” have always been 100% biased in favor of whoever owns them. We all have equal free speech rights, but some of us are more free than others because the ability to purchase a bigger megaphone scales with access to capital.
Organized, capitalized propaganda farms existed before LLMs and have been engaged in the same kind of destructive information warfare. LLMs seem to be more persuasive than the wage-slave humans employed by troll farms and other mass media outlets, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing if it manufactures a more rational public opinion.
LLMs lower the capital requirement to begin competing in the propaganda war. The biggest players who could afford to buy enormous media empires and fund human-generated influence operations are going to have to compete against the rest of us.
This planet has been a soulless hellscape longer than any of us have been alive, and LLMs are more likely to improve the situation than make it worse.
When billionaires use those agglomerations of capital to manipulate markets and engage in other types of anti-competitive practices, it turns a free market into a captured market.
Anti-monopoly regulation & enforcement is required to maintain a market’s freedom.
Where will you be when the zoomies wear off?
Sounds like an improvement over trying to communicate past a language barrier and accents so thick that the actively-hostile human CSR is neigh unintelligible.
Verizon customer service has been terrible for many years, and somehow their business to business service is even worse than residential.
