I mean, that was back when if you wanted a home computer, you were building it yourself from parts from Radio Shack. Not exactly the same thing. I’m not certain that even Apple had the Apple 1 out at that point. I know they hadn’t made the Mac 128k, and weren’t going to for several years.
I haven’t ever met anyone that thought Bill Gates was prescient, just a lucky businessman.
Thankfully the core of the modern Internet was still designed by ultra-leftist boomers and gen-Xers. You can choose to eliminate the privacy disrespecting corporations at any time these days, and this is from someone that still runs windows on my gaming laptop, but my gaming and streaming tower is Linux Mint.
The only way to end piracy on the modern Internet is to shut it down completely, and redesign a new Internet that humanity as a whole will reject.
Fuck the circuits. It’s absolute bullshit that entities can game the system and shop for “favorable” judges because of the appellate courts.
I was combining Wesley with weaseley
I was going for a TNG reference. The HP reference was entirely unintentional, though may have been unconscious.
Shut up, Weasley!
Different board. That was Tesla, not Twitter.
The company seems to be a hardware provider, not a service provider. Also, they wouldn’t be able to resell these machines anyway as they were custom made specifically for Twitter before musk bought it. Without a court order that would involve breaking and entering, and possible theft charges.
Jon Oliver did an entire segment on that in the fourth season, featuring news segments from the late 70s early 80s
I was under the impression that the major two advantages of fusion were exponentially more power output, provided we can actually sustain it, and no radioactive byproducts…
I was actually looking for the version that includes The Muppets, because there absolutely is/was a version of that video with the Mnah-mnah muppets. I just couldn’t find it.
Edit: excuse me, but 17 years old isn’t super old. That’s not even voting age.
Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
SAAB tried to corner the US market in the '80s and '90s by giving away a shoulder mounted anti tank rocket with each purchase of a car, but their legal team said “that’s not an appropriate way to deal with road rage.”

Don’t apply physics to a wishlist. That’s not how wishing works. I’m aware it’s not possible, but stick shift is just fun to drive.
For me it would be a 1986 SAAB 900 SPG
I’m so sad GM killed SAAB. Only decent cars left are Volvo and Subaru. I just wish someone would mass produce a manual transmission EV.
Elon wants to be Stark. He’s actually Iron Monger. He wants to be Stark so fucking badly.
