  • Printed books fall apart. Ancient tombs decay. But data is cheap.

    Okay, but printed books don’t need a power supply and absolutely last quite a lot longer than cds, dvds, hdds, ssds, and even tape storage (tape currently is the best long-term data storage for cold storage).

    None of them match books because all of them need a power source and some type of device to read the media on them.

    The data on 8-track tapes is pretty much useless without an 8-track player even though a lot of the tapes are still around there’s fewer players to play them.

    Books are the superior data storage format, sadly.

    weaning them off government assistance.

    What a horrific way to state such a thing, and basically, fuck Florida for this anyway.

    faith-based organizations

    No seriously, fuck Florida.

    I don’t know whether to be on the trolls’ side or not in this instance, because these people should just have access to their government assistance instead of this bullshit. I guess I’m not on their side though because getting in the way still hurts people in need. Ugh. Ugh. Fuck everything about all of this.

    Oh and that biometric data? The US government can just ask for any and all of it any time it wants to and Discord has to legally give it up.

    Do you really want to be handing this info to the Trump admin?

    Get the fuck off Discord, now.

    I don’t give one flying fuck how easy it is to use, they’re betraying you with every word you type into it. They keep all that data, and thus all that data is up for grabs by the US government because it’s a US company.

    This is fascism we’re dealing with here. You can piss and moan about “user interface” and “it’s hard to understand Matrix” when you don’t live under fascist authoritarianism you fucking fools.




  • Okay, sure, that’s all valid, but that means nothing when it comes to endless articles wishcasting about the current price. I’ve seen these articles for almost two months now, when Tesla hit its lowest point in 2025 on March 10th. Sure, this could be a dead cat bounce, but until it actually starts crashing, it isn’t anything other than wishcasting.

    I’ll give a damn when it drops lower than its lowest point in January of 2023 at $113. It’s got a loooong way to drop before it passes that point. Below that is when the stock will potentially become terminal. Tesla is rigged and being floated by foreign interests, and it’s going to take a lot for it (and the rest of the market, frankly) to come back down to reality. Talking about the reality of how useless Tesla is has almost fuck-nothing to do with how the market acts anymore.

    What’s that saying? “The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.”
