Where I am and due to its greater practicality, nursing is more popular as a college course than compsci.
I once started as compsci, but instead got a job fixing PCs. Also self-learned basic carpentry and plumbing. Looking at raising livestock in the near future.
They’ve been playing the very long game of trying to control human behavior for centuries, not just decades. The one thing to note is that the United States began as a bunch of colonies run by ministers, and the fundies want to go back to that theocratic form of rule. That by the 19th century the temperance movement came from the dozens of Christian subsects. Yeah, they also extended it to anything that did not define as “Christian” behavior, including choice of ideologies (socialism = bad), gender (male or female = good), source of knowledge (Bible > science), beliefs (they have veiled Islamophobia), and even eating and sexual habits.
Now – based on their basic blueprint – they want to artificially induce the Second Coming by trying to get their fucking project off the ground, and impose control on everyone else.
BTW, any collapse or devolution of the United States and the Western world would come off as a wonderful realization for Putin, Dugin, Kyrill, and their cronies. That Jesus himself in his actual Middle Eastern appearance and acts of progressivism would be considered an enemy by fundies expecting a “whitened” Jesus.
Regardless, Prager is full of shit.
How do investors keep falling for this shit.
The ROI and the supposed savings from getting rid of the human side of technical support but also efforts of human creatives.
What an obnoxious excuse, there are far worse problems children have to face besides bad parenting.
Oh, definitely as Jobs practically created a personality cult, putting Woz literally behind the curtains.
When ordinary people talk about creative geniuses who make innovative devices that change the course of history, most cases they’ll talk about Jobs, believing he came up with ideas for most if not all the gadgets that makes Apple a known fashion tech brand… despite Woz being responsible for designing and building the first Apple desktop.
A platform for people in developing countries, however. In some cases it supplants most if not all of the functions of what used to be several programs for Internet access and communication.
I mentioned Facebook because I’m seeing some people trying to share information how to grift with AI.
He is, just that he made ultraconservative statements in his own website, but deleted them later and disabled the site from being archived.
Not just a thief, the bastard thinks he’s better than the entirety of Bethesda.
I like the lemmy mindset far more than reddit
…and Facebook.
Not just mods but also other fanworks – such as fanfiction, fanart, etc. – in that creatives will go to great lengths to protect their work, and start huge flamewars, despite being obviously derivative reinterpretation of the original.
Another fucking asshole.
Ever since he got control of the patch, it made him kind of “authoritative”, even looking pretty in the eyes of Bethesda 'cause he thinks himself as more “loremonger” than the loremakers, but really flipped his lid upon seeing Obama won.
Also clearly a narcissist.
There is an audience for such games. Mainly for them to blow off steam and try to see if they’re a better crack shot than anyone, and sometimes to acquire a degree of fame. They have spent enormous amounts of money hoping to land more shots at a higher framerate.
I’m now more content quietly playing an offline sandbox game, no rush at all.
AI startup Perplexity has offered Google $34.5 billion to buy the Chrome browser. The price might be below evaluation, but the company may be forced to sell the browser at the request of U.S. authorities as part of a case in which it was found guilty of being a monopoly.

Might as well be wanting all that juicy personal information from which to mine not only for profit but also for sending a SWAT team through the door without a court order and a search warrant. Or, sending a Hellfire missile through a window of a house somewhere in Pakistan.
Damn sure was clickbaity. No ads? Buy YT Premium they say.
Whoopee. Saved you a click.
I stopped using ABP years ago and switched to uBlock Origin. That and some *Monkey scripts.
If it’s not heat waves, it’s several days of hard rain, dirty water swirling round your hips, and the constant threat of leptospirosis or rat shit disease.
More horror than dark comedy, hard to laugh after watching it. Such utter helplessness after all other attempts to stop extinction from happening fail.
Makes you wish you first have to raise a revolution – deal with those elites awash in absolute power and then get rid of them from ever ruling – before taking on the task of combating the actual horror about to happen. But right now and what is infuriating is that those bastards in power are trying to squelch the voices rising up to pull them down.
Also known as profiling.
