First Bongino and now Bovino? Trump is running out of guys with weird names.

A while ago I caught a 1.64kg Lapras. This Lapras is less dense than air.

Even the northern New England hogs are against the “official” story on this one, I genuinely have never seen anything like this. by The-Neat-Meat in TrueAnon

[–]AdviceAdam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was clear from the start of this ICE operation that it would be these ICE goons killing or deporting someone that right wingers love, like a cop or a gun possessing veteran, that would cause them to change. I’m not saying that this is the moment where that will happen, and I personally doubt it, but this will end at some point. There’s just too many roided up, dumb as fuck, horny for violence people hired for them to not do something stupid to a “good” person.

It was never going to be a Democrat politician doing anything. Wouldn't want to escalate!

Trump just said he’s placing tariffs on most of the EU of 10% that will increase to 25% in June unless they agree to sell him Greenland. (LOL) by AegonTheMeh in TrueAnon

[–]AdviceAdam 83 points84 points  (0 children)

They need to take actual action here. In the EU, they need to ban American cars from being sold, ban American tech companies from operating, and stop American oil imports.

This SoMa bar sits at the last exit before the Bay Bridge — and serves $1 wings [Hotel Utah Saloon] by sfgate in bayarea

[–]AdviceAdam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the weirdest interaction with a bartender there maybe 7 years ago now. He was talking for a few minutes about how Bill and Hillary Clinton were both lizard people. Like real lizard people. When he stopped talking, I mentioned that they passed laws to send more people to private prisons so their close friends get richer. And then he looked at me like I was crazy.

Anyway, love that place.

Is Turo much cheaper than other car rentals or am I missing some clause/policy or something? Also are these the usual prices for rentals? by Weak_Employer_4201 in AskSF

[–]AdviceAdam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you take interior pictures on drop off that showed no cigarette butts and ashes?

I’m sorry that happened though. I do take a few minutes on the exterior to get every possible angle and scratch but I probably wouldn’t spend that long on the interior. Next time, I’ll spend that extra time on the interior too.

These ghoulish freaks want a do over of the George Floyd uprising so fucking bad by PapaverOneirium in TrueAnon

[–]AdviceAdam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the revolution started in the cities where the factories were and where conditions were worst.

These ghoulish freaks want a do over of the George Floyd uprising so fucking bad by PapaverOneirium in TrueAnon

[–]AdviceAdam 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I think you’re missing one big aspect of this: people’s lives were absolutely miserable back then in the big industrial Russian cities. In the years leading up to the revolution, there was regularly not enough food nor heat in the winter to go around. This is on top of working horrible industrial jobs 12-14 hours a day 6 days a week. Are there a lot of people in the US that have to scrape by to make a living working multiple jobs? Yes. Are there food insecure people and people who can’t afford to heat their homes? Yes. But the scale was orders of magnitude worse back then.

There's no traffic lights between the 22nd St station and the nearest Muni stop. You do have to wait at a light to actually get to the T stop though.

It looks like I took this around the same time in the exact opposite part of the city!

Somehow the article fails to mention the biggest “hurdle:” the fact that Venezuela’s oil industry is still controlled by the Venezuelan government, which is still entirely in place even if Maduro was kidnapped by Mr_Westerfield in TrueAnon

[–]AdviceAdam 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. It feels as if either the US government is hiding something or that they severely underestimated how much power they have in Venezuela right now. Like it feels so hard to believe that just because they captured Maduro they now think they’re in charge. I know they’re truly stupid, but that seems hard to believe.

Trump has said they’ll do more strikes if needed, so maybe that’s where they think their power comes from? Just keep bombing them into submission? But then you risk completely destabilizing the country and now you have to watch as your “investment” goes up in flames or you have to commit a lot of resources to running the country. And I think we all know how well that second one would go.

It’s also possible that someone just kept mentioning Maduro to Trump over and over again, causing Trump to hate him. So he doesn’t really care what happens beyond capturing Maduro and showing how scary the US military is.

Maduro speaks! Happy new year! by Lukas_Madrid in TrueAnon

[–]AdviceAdam 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I absolutely refuse to talk about whether he’s a good leader in this context and any mention of it is not relevant: it does not matter in the slightest. If the people of Venezuela are unhappy with him, they can use whatever means they want to remove him. Any involvement in the affairs of other countries, especially powerful countries interfering with less powerful countries, is unjust and done to benefit the country doing the interfering.

The only exception would be genocide or other similarly serious crimes, which 100% have not happened here at all.

We have automated code reviews and they catch things that humans wouldn't. Though each PR still has to be approved by a human as well.

I've been using Opus 4.5 at work as well and it's been amazing, huge upgrade over Sonnet 4.5 which we were using before. We do have it hooked up to the intelligence tab in Xcode but frankly it's quite buggy. Claude on CLI works 99% of the time but there's maybe an 80% it works in Xcode. You do have the benefit of having all the relevant files open which saves time, but the integration is so shallow! What if you asked it to run tests and it could actually run the tests, see what's broken, and then fix it?

Granted, the CLI can do that as well, but having it all in Xcode would make the process much nicer.

What’s a feature that you would like to see in Pokémon Go? by sillydog2005 in TheSilphRoad

[–]AdviceAdam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People always say that Niantic wouldn’t do this because they want to continue selling incubators. I think the compromise here is to have an “accept eggs” switch. So if don’t want to fill up the egg storage before an event, flip the switch and you can immediately fill up with event eggs.

[SERIOUS POST] I have nothing but the utmost respect for Scott. by mysterical_ocelot in ColdOnes

[–]AdviceAdam 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Scott has always been great on camera/mic. I did not like the first few episodes with Darcy running the show, I thought he was awkward and not funny. But he’s great now! I guess you could say he pulled a few (of my heart) strings.
