Yeah, better to just sit around and do nothing. It's not like it could get worse.

Secession is what Russia is blackmailing him for. Secede MAGA instead.

Stack Overflow hasn't been useful for at least 10 years, if not longer.

The flagged "correct" answer is almost always wrong due to idiotic power-users and the vast horde of idiots who upvote obviously wrong answers because they're bootlickers. The real answer is usually buried in between the posts by gatekeepers, pedants, idiots with something to prove, wannabe admins, egotistical idiots, the highly opinionated technologically insecure, etc ad nauseam. Reddit is just as bad for tech questions, if not worse.

Since I started using LLMs (running on my own inference server) I haven't used anything else for tech questions that wasn't opinion-based. Much, much more useful, and it requires you to think seriously about the problem to come up with a good prompt -- which often gives you the answer before you even finish the prompt.

All of those sites are right-wing propaganda operations. Every single one of them.

Factual news is almost always going to be liberal biased. Sites like these encourage journalists to bias their news stories to the right for no good reason.

I'm surprised so many people are falling for this.

Oh yeah. This does it for me too. A 20-something volume series space-opera or tactical space-war is perfect for GSD. Works great for insomnia too.

Fortunately we’re in a sci-fi golden-age so there’s lots of great stuff to keep a brain happily occupied while the body mindlessly toils. Urban fantasy is another great genre for this. There’s even urban-fantasy space-opera if that’s your thing, lol.

If a writer cares so little about their audience that they put their article on Medium, it's not worth reading.

The purpose of Medium is to sell advertising to generate as large a return for investors as possible. As a blogging or "journalism" platform it's mostly a scam for those who don't know better.

I find it odd that anyone thinks there's going to be (fair) elections. The Democrats (or any party other than MAGA Republicans) are never going to be in power again, ever.

Too any rich and powerful people will end up in prison if that happened, and right now they're the ones writing (and rewriting) the rules and breaking the things they can't control.

It's going on in front of everyone's eyes and the consequences are just being ignored by most. It's mindboggling.

The implication is that on meds they're super-focused and goal-oriented. Without they're having fun and trying new ideas. Neither is good or bad, right or wrong. Rings true for me.

Meds aren't going to make anyone neurotypical -- they just help them harness their awesomely chaotic mind so they can do something more productive with it.

And why wouldn't they? It's not like votes are going to matter anymore.

What makes you think you have to kill people? Why not just sink their yachts, burn their planes and homes? Dox them. Shut down airports with drones -- nationally. Burn their warehouses, datacenters, factories. Hack their computers and steal their money. Etc... etc...

Americans are so indoctrinated that they think killing is the natural next progression of peaceful protests.

Humiliating them is much more damaging to their stupid movement.

I would be surprised if some Trump minion with a backchannel didn't make the initial ask.
