I’m ok with that. If I sell my house, I’ll need to buy another one, which will be cheaper too. The only people who lose out are investors that treat a necessity of life as a get rich quick scheme.

It’s kind of hard to summarize, it really is “Patriarchy 101” (or maybe 102) with the Barbie movie as a narrative base. It was good to hear things I’ve intuited explicitly stated

I wish more men could understand how the patriarchy hurts men, I like how this puts it into words.

And George Washington Carver was genius with peanuts. Whats that got to do with the topic at hand?

You get it

I think a lot of men believe “I’m one of the good ones” and don’t stop to think that a random woman on the street (or in the woods, in this case) has no way of determining that.

Probably true, given all the (lovable) asshole cats out there.

Him? Really?

Can you give an example? Can you use it to initialize vars outside the scope of the lambda?

This is addressed in The Rise And Fall of DODO. There’s a whole decontamination quarantine period for time travelers.

Sounds like there’s a headless version of Plexamp that can run on a Pi.

If you use Plex, you would be able to use Plexamp on your computer or phone to play your music on the Pi’s Plexamp.

Or you could get a modern receiver that supports Chromecast and AirPlay and use one of those to stream to the receiver.

Andor. Not a film, but better than The Mandalorian.

If a system moves people around and some of them die, that’s the purpose of the system.

You can say “we don’t want any of them to die” and that’s true, but the system doesn’t reflect that.

You can say “fewer people will die because more people can get to hospitals, but some will die as a result of people moving around” and the system will demonstrate that.

Is that a “we don’t want anyone to die” system or is it a “we are going to accept some people dying as a result of the system so that more people can be saved” system?

The purpose of a system is what it does.

If a system crushes orphans, its purpose is to crash orphans. The designers and participants may say otherwise, but they are ignoring the crushed orphans.

Everyone is talking about how taxes work and no one is talking about how this meme works. He doesn’t need glasses anymore! It looks blurry with his glasses!

Multiverse of Madness? Ok, yeah that was another solid post-Endgame film. Loki’s been good too.

This was the finale of the MCU, No Way Home was the coda.

Why do I get the feeling this is Steven’s commit?

Commercial real estate is in bad shape across the board, I can’t imagine how else they’ll fill it though. Maybe by employing the rest of Rocket from Campus Martius? That’s more shuffling deck chairs, not bringing people into the city.

When I was moving a decade ago my wife and I considered Detroit. The schools meant we’d have to pay for private and after factoring that and insurance in, it was the same as moving to Ann Arbor.

Maybe invest in schools and infrastructure instead of giving tax breaks to billionaires?
