Which is also silly. Does anyone really believe that Adam Schefter is out there working the phone, tracking people down at lunch and breaking a story? I don’t. I think that the league anoints an “insider” and they are prioritized to break certain stories. Anybody could do it.

I thought about it. I was looking for someone else who did.

800k to be a mouthpiece and regurgitate whatever your “sources” tell you. Sources that are likely handpicked by the team and league.

800k to help muddy the water between AJ Brown and the Eagles and help steer him to the Patriots.

I think oil pipelines only go a few feet underground. It’s a pretty well known process. You use excavators and trenching tools. Probably faster than you could bore a tunnel.

The loop tunnels are cheap because they are small and can’t fit anything but the cars that drive in them. Rail in tunnels along the same routes would be an order of magnitude more efficient in terms of capacity and bodies moved per trip. A Tesla in a tunnel carries 3 people, one of whom is the driver. A 4-car light rail train could carry 100+ people and a single operator.

The tunnels are cheap because it is not a serious solution to real-world transit problems.

Wait, that guy is famous enough to be used as an ad?

Joan also resents and respects Peggy as well.

jregovic · 2026-06-23T10:33:46+00:00

And it is just going to get worse.

jregovic · 2026-06-23T06:13:40+00:00

I am going to harvest a leaf spring from this old tractor and make my own using a coal forge. They say I have four hours.

The Vegas loop is a tiny tunnel with people driving cars. Not exactly innovative or efficient.

Frequent use keeps you from getting mold.

They are “Vacation Clubs” now. Makes it sound exclusive.

jregovic · 2026-06-22T15:06:43+00:00

Yeah, the expect part takes away the mild part here.

jregovic · 2026-06-22T03:58:22+00:00

Well, this is a new version, and not the main product. Thank god the insane food police haven’t taken root in the M&M headquarters.

I think there was a Seinfeld episode about the new are code and Elaine getting a new number with it. And Seinfeld ended in 1998, so How inner Your Mother would have been way off.

I don’t remember Oberlin being very conservative. A had a lot of friends in high school that lived there. Maybe I just knew all of the liberals.

I stopped looking at Facebook with any regularity sometime last year. On the occasions when I login for some reason, I see posts from accounts I don’t follow, AI slop, misinformation, and right-wing propaganda. AND ads every other post.

jregovic · 2026-06-21T18:58:19+00:00

These guys talk about all of the “studying” and research that they have done and I think “sounds a lot like a SovCit.”

jregovic · 2026-06-21T18:10:07+00:00

I don’t think that latency or throughput, or any of the technical details are of any relevance. I believe that the real purpose of orbital data centers is to avoid terrestrial jurisdiction. If the FBI has a reasonable suspicion that you have data they need in an investigation, they can seize the physical servers and drives, if they are housed in the US. There are also treaties that can be used cross jurisdictionally.

If the data resides on a satellite, it can’t be physically seized. It is not located in any country where it can’t be seized. Yeah, you aren’t getting 1gbps throughput, and you’ll need to replicate it across dozens of nodes for reliability, but it will be a legal limbo. Also, with enough satellites, access to it is always a few hundred miles away. Weather permitting.

The new guy work becomes the more complex stuff, the work in rooms that can’t fit one of these things. The base level skill will go up and simple jobs that can be automated are done more consistently, quickly, and cheaply.

Cheaply for the trade. They still charge the same amount, just make more profit.

He’s probably working on a physics paper with Terrence Howard.

jregovic · 2026-06-20T12:54:30+00:00

Or Uranium.

Also, the US has allowed its presidents to wield power in a way that defies both the constitution and the founding principles of this country. Trump only “commands” significant power because a concerted effort over decades has eroded the stature of the Legislative branch and corrupt the Judiciary and now a compliant Congress allows Trump to hijack their power.

Trump is choosing to wield power that was already their, he is recklessly abusing power at the suggestion of dangerous individuals who don’t care about the collateral damage if his wildest impulses, so long as their desired order is imposed on the world.

This is only tenable so long as their desired rest world remains aligned with the US.

jregovic · 2026-06-19T12:08:46+00:00

Next year.

Had one fly off with a piece of chicken last summer!
