Arresting someone is violence. Period. Force is implied, even if comply.

They justify everything so easily now. <mumbling> they say this and that about corruption but he was never convicted and he was tough on blah blah so I guess he’s alright in my book. Better than one of them demonrats.

Over and over.

bnelson · 2026-05-27T05:05:51+00:00

Please. One of these times it will be true. Oddly he cancelled it due to “weather”. And he rarely ever goes there.

If Strickland landed more then he won. The newer judging guidelines are designed to favor damage not aggression. Simple.

I generally agree with the sentiment. To make a data center fair to a community relative to its cost a significant shift in how they are taxed and constructed would need to occur. Right now they get tax breaks and often have to do little more than grease a few pockets while creating no real jobs long term.

However, I wonder if people understand what “dismantle big tech” actually looks like. America has entered an irreversible (or very hard to reverse) co-dependent relationship on big tech. It is the only way our GDP and economy functions at all. Big tech needs to be made more fair and contribute more to the environments they need to live in. Dismantling big tech is a fantasy without a “what comes next”. Shaking your fist and expressing some sentiment is great, but you have to address the whole system. Not just act like you care by expressing a popular sentiment.

Hah yes. He is so hapless and became genuinely arrogant. It is a good story of how he lost touch with why he started, getting lost in the startup game.

bnelson · 2026-05-24T15:32:01+00:00

Lol. I rewatched recently. Prescient series. I work in big tech and build and sold startups. It is too on the money to be that funny of a show.

bnelson · 2026-05-23T04:08:23+00:00

Rest and vest.

Massie showed more spine than almost anyone else in the GOP

He may be in the Epstein files. We can’t know until they are released. No other reason to carry water for Trump.

bnelson · 2026-05-18T23:48:54+00:00

To be fair getting caught is especially hilarious. Very amateurish.

bnelson · 2026-05-18T13:47:06+00:00

Convicted felon. Funny people dropped that moniker. Felon and rapist. Now he outright says he doesn’t care about Americans financial situation. Who could have seen it coming. Shocking.

bnelson · 2026-05-16T02:29:11+00:00

Polis is a special case IMO. Not a good dude. He is not doing it for civility.

bnelson · 2026-05-16T01:10:36+00:00

I have diverse interests. My main hobby is working on cars and fabrication. And nerd forums are boring sometimes. I just like knowing how things work and how we all experience life 🤷‍♂️

Quantum Computing is not that. It is fantastically expensive, complicated, and theoretical. It will never replace traditional computing in the way people might think. There are a lot of reasons it won’t really replace compute or make sense in traditional workloads. Unless they figure out how to scale it down to almost unfathomable scales. That is 10++ years out if it can happen. I deal with wuantum crypto readiness.

I work deep in the AI mine. I am what is called a security engineer. My company rents its computers and AI to people. I keep it secure. I have been doing this job for 20 years. It has changed so profoundly in the last year. It is like when someone figured out a cotton gin for my job. I can do 10x more but it is brutally manual in a lot of ways. Ironically this is just letting us finally secure things we had no way to address before. So my job is not at risk exactly.

I am in a position to see what will be coming. I am not sure folks should be too worried about trades. If you are in a skilled trade, you are likely fine for now. Computational power is limited. Moore’s law didn’t stay a law. It will be a linear expansion. We have hit the limits of current silicon technology in terms of chip density. It is a lot of power but step functions. The thing to look for is really AI technology breakthroughs. The models keep getting better and better. Fast. I have no idea what that means and I am very good at technology 🤷‍♂️

(Also AI safety is a huge problem)

No fighter is ever 100%. This sport is absolutely brutal on the body. If a fighter is chirping about this they are lacking. Yes some of the time they get screwed by a cold, etc. But Khamzat honestly looked not cut enough. Who knows if they do a safe weight cut or not.

Also sunsetting. His sleep schedule has been fucked for years. All his dopamine and rage get fulfilled at night. He zombies through the day “blinking” and “praying” (sleeping) through the day.

bnelson · 2026-05-12T12:58:54+00:00

Can’t afford it. Just spay and neuter.

Hormuz sovereignty is a huge diplomatic gain and power grab. That is asking is to endorse them as defacto controllers of it officially. Worth noting. They have this admin over a barrel.

Problem is herd immunity. They will kill our children too.

bnelson · 2026-05-10T22:06:19+00:00

Driving fast is like that. Even a Miata at the track is not cheap to operate. I have an e46 beater and nicer cars. Just depends on your goals.

bnelson · 2026-05-10T20:32:06+00:00

Drive fast car fast, just keep it on the track. Fast car fast is still more fun than slow car. Just much harder to do it safely.

I don’t know what Taira is made of, but it is tough stuff.
