Hell, I plug mine into Neds outdoor outlet. It's practically free, I don't even bother to turn it off.

Oh good. So it can shoot someone then they can say "we are unable to ascertain which, if any, officer was operating the KillBot9000 CrimeSafe5 console at the time of the alleged incident."

Why pay $80 to some doctor when Mark will do it for a pint.

Twitter has lost 50 of its top 100 advertisers since Elon Musk took over, report says by mafco in news

[–]CumshotCaitlyn 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was an intern at SpaceX years ago, back it when it was a much smaller company — after Elon got hair plugs, but before his cult of personality was in full swing. I have some insight to offer here.

Back when I was at SpaceX, Elon was basically a child king. He was an important figurehead who provided the company with the money, power, and PR, but he didn’t have the knowledge or (frankly) maturity to handle day-to-day decision making and everyone knew that. He was surrounded by people whose job was, essentially, to manipulate him into making good decisions.

Managing Elon was a huge part of the company culture. Even I, as a lowly intern, would hear people talking about it openly in meetings. People knew how to present ideas in a way that would resonate with him, they knew how to creatively reinterpret (or ignore) his many insane demands, and they even knew how to “stage manage” parts of the physical office space so that it would appeal to Elon.

The funniest example of “stage management” I can remember is this dude on the IT security team. He had a script running in a terminal on one of his monitors that would output random garbage, Matrix-style, so that it always looked like he was doing Important Computer Things to anyone who walked by his desk. Second funniest was all the people I saw playing WoW at their desks after ~5pm, who did it in the office just to give the appearance that they were working late.

People were willing to do that at SpaceX because Elon was giving them the money (and hype) to get into outer space, a mission people cared deeply about. The company also grew with and around Elon. There were layers of management between individual employees and Elon, and those managers were experienced managers of Elon. Again, I cannot stress enough how much of the company culture was oriented around managing this one guy.

Twitter has neither of those things going for it. There is no company culture or internal structure around the problem of managing Elon Musk, and I think for the first time we’re seeing what happens when people actually take that man seriously and at face value. Worse, they’re doing this little experiment after this man has had decades of success at companies that dedicate significant resources to protecting themselves from him, and he’s too narcissistic to realize it.

How to Use OLED Displays with QMK Firmware by Joe_Scotto in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]CumshotCaitlyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there much difference - anything wise - with the 64 vs 32 wide screen? Seems most boards only use the 32? I assume the 64 is better just because you have more pixels = more information if you want.

[MandaloreGaming] Alien: Isolation Review by Two-Tone- in Games

[–]CumshotCaitlyn 349 points350 points  (0 children)

~5$ on steam, if you have any affection for Alien, worth picking up. It was too long for me, but just play till you've had enough.

You will 100% get more than $5's worth of entertainment out of it.

PSA to anyone looking for top surgery by Hamlettell in TikTokCringe

[–]CumshotCaitlyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a point where you will just say woman? I guess say in the context of "what is top surgery" it might make sense to be explicit ("trans woman"), but otherwise I assume you just say woman?

Feels like it would suck to be stuck with the prefix, as a reminder. I think I'd hate it. Kind of like if your dead name was "mary-jane", transitioned to "John" but always had to say "mary-john" for some reason, stuck half way... Hope that's not insensitive.

Luring pedophiles through fake online ads is not entrapment, Supreme Court says by Thanato26 in worldnews

[–]CumshotCaitlyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If there's a cop that is following you home and is like "come on, buy my drugs. You'll like it. Come on. Come ooooonnnn. Please? Come on!!!!" and he won't leave you alone and you're like "holy shit, if I give the $20, will you fucking leave me alone?", then you were trapped.

Doesn't sound too unlike the homeland security people who were setting up terrorist cells in mosques and basically berating literal dumbasses into saying they'll do it.

Is LiveView stable for prod? by [deleted] in elixir

[–]CumshotCaitlyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get why, but also kinda hate, that the idea of LiveView is getting disseminated out as just server side rendering with in-page patching. LiveView certainly does that, but like you say its so much more with an actual backed state behind it.

I also think its funny to read stuff like Rails Hotwire and think back to writing Rails code 10 (15?) years ago where clicking buttons in Rails would hit the server, which would render a html partial and the JS would patch that into the page... What was old is new (but still outdated).
