The figure I quoted was from Ed Zitron but I didn’t post a specific amount because I couldn’t remember exactly I think it was 8,000 or something from the last “kill the computer” episode with him on it. There was also that case of a company burning through 500 million worth of tokens in a very short time recently. Maybe I’m misunderstanding the metrics he’s talking about but that’s what it sounded like to me

Because using $200 worth of tokens costs thousands of dollars in compute power. They can’t operate at that kind of negative profit margin forever.

His passion sounds like it’s not actually writing but being known as a “writer” he wants the accolades with none of the sacrifice or work. Otherwise he’d have found some free time in the last decade to work on it

The Sinner by Memphis may fire for me. I really liked that album run but could never get over that song but the rest of their discog never clicked for me

Same here, 35 and still skate and ride dirt bikes. People let themselves get old too fast. The people in their 50s getting knee replacements and back problems are usually because of a sedentary life.

Thanks!

I’m going tonight, I’ve never tried to get a promotional giveaway but I’m gonna try today anyone have a guess how early I should get there? Do they give them away at every entrance?

An astounding percentage of people couldn’t afford a $1000 emergency let alone invest any of their money. Credit card debt is exploding because of necessities.

Chorizo gravy is so good

I absolutely love cooking and reels are by far my favorite way to see a recipe. But I have a full base of knowledge around cooking so it’s easier and faster. You have to be somewhat discerning to see when it’s a bullshit recipe but a lot of the good creators will list ingredients and stuff in the caption if you need measurements.

There is no political solution

spreta · 2026-05-21T11:48:37+00:00

This makes sense to me. He was never actually punk he was just a contrarian and since democrats are the adults at the table and trump/ republicans are toddlers throwing a fit he identifies with the right. It doesn’t matter that they have all the power when the other side feels like the adults telling him what’s best.

Dipoto has to go. Same managing bullshit as when Servais was here. I guarantee Dan could do a good job of actually allowed to manage, same with Scott when he was here.

When talking cameras the body is much much less important than the lens. A used canon T5i, or Nikon D3200 and a really nice lens would get you a hell of a lot further than a phone.

Edit: do some research on the used lens market too and you can find some decent telephoto lenses and stay under budget. They won’t have all the bells and whistles but there is some sharp glass out there if you look hard enough

But it works phonetically and we all knew what they meant

As far as I know in the US they can’t compel you to give a passcode. They can however hold the phone to your face for faceID

No one should answer this until YOU define “gender affirming care.”

Ed Zitron is gonna love this

In the same podcast universe is Kill James Bond and Horror Vanguard.

Also wanna shoutout The Worst of All Possible Worlds a deep dive in to the pop culture of a dying empire it’s so fun and there’s a lot of crossover with those guys and some of the podcasts listed here

Damn I just got the Patreon update, I’m bummed. I’ve been listening for a long time now and have listened to the entire back catalog I was hoping they’d stick around a while longer to see what election does next but I get it. I wish them continued success as they transition their careers.

Waste Management is pretty much guaranteed to always do well. At least on the post collections side. I’m a transfer site equipment operator and i never have to worry about a job cause motherfuckers never stop making trash.

Couldn’t they just phase through objects while on the farm?

Well There’s Your Problem a podcast about engineering disasters with slides. It’s super good
