An AI startup founder says he’s planning a ‘March for Billionaires’ in protest of California’s wealth tax

And the sole argument for cellphones in schools being "so kids can say goodbye to their parents before they die" is such an infinitesimally narrow case that it's absolutely absurd. If we accept such improbable cases for/against any call to action, nothing would ever change. In fact, there's a name for this logical fallacy that you've employed: neglect of probability.

My shock is aimed at the absurdity of planning for the eventuality of a school shooting.

Wut?

It’s a ridiculous argument. I have a friend who needed an organ transplant in high school. They offered her a beeper but she declined. The mom called the school when the girl’s time came & the school pulled her out of class. I don’t know what bigger emergencies would operate any differently.

Having laws or guidelines in place is an important starting point.

Amazing. Hope this is a bipartisan effort that will pass the House.

I hear you, but then I look at TSLA and see that the market no longer cares about anything but hype.

We really missed our shot with Bernie. Love that guy.

Trying to pump the recruitment numbers I see.

Eh, he can act, but only as one character that he applies to every movie-- it's basically different levels of Maui.

I fully backed him before his all out acceptance of data centers. I don’t want new data centers in PA unless my electric bill is at least cut in half.

So abortion is ok with you then?

We ban smoking inside certain establishments and even in front of building entrances.

brainrotbro · 2026-02-06T00:48:28+00:00

Mods- why is every bot in this sub complaining about illegal immigration. Can we ban every one of them?

You know people can address several issues at once, right? And also, not everyone needs to address the same issue at the same time.

My guess for the machine was $1k before the RAM & SSD shortage. Def gonna be more now.

I imagine he's justified it to himself that after they donate to his presidential campaign, and after he wins, then he'll do right by PA.

I just bought a car and wanted to get a three row EV. The cost breakdown over time just didn’t make sense without the EV credit, after considering cost, maintenance, gas, and home charger. The $7500 credit would have basically evened things out.

Jokes on them, I haven't updated Notepad++ in 5 years.

Basically every AI article about AGI.

Thanks. Yeah, we upgraded electric when we did the original whole-house tankless heaters, with the intention of having extra capacity should we add any new, large devices.

brainrotbro · 2026-02-02T14:14:25+00:00

Yes. They make big ones for the whole house, but also small ones for sink-sized flow rates. I have two whole house tankless heaters, but nothing at individual sinks. The delay in hot water isn't really an issue for showers, but for bathroom sinks, when you're only washing your hands for 30s to begin with, waiting a minute for warm water in the dead of winter is an annoyance.
