  • I feel like MAGA might not come to his defense this time.

    Hope this isn’t wishful thinking. Trump thinks his son is a l33t hacker for being able to turn a laptop on. Musk on the other hand owns a major social media platform and has access to skilled technicians and programmers, as well as huge server farms which he doubtless uses to analyse voter behaviour and find the weak points where efforts should be focused in order to have most impact on electoral choices.

    Trump certainly understands how essential to the disinfo effort Musk is, even though it’s way beyond the grasp of your average MAGA. IMO Trump is not going to abandon Musk in a hurry.





  • How many billions (in today’s money) were spent on going to the moon? What about the billions poured into refining the internal combustion engine? The billions that have gone into making and running massive particle accelerators?

  • Yes! My wife was going to leave me and run off with my conventionally attractive neighbour, but then I discovered Groove Life™! I immediately called their toll-free number and ordered a pair of Groove Life™ socks. My life has never been the same since! Once he saw me walking down the street with new-found confidence thanks to my Groove Life™ socks, my neighbour dumped my wife and moved in with me.







  • My impression from when I’ve encountered this is that it is an attempt to repel bots.

    hmm bots don’t use keyboard or mouse copy & paste so I don’t see how that makes sense?

    my impression is this is just stupid product managers who don’t understand why it’s a bad idea to force all your users to manually type out their passwords or email addresses just because of the 0.1% of people who would copy and paste one with an error in.
