Oh, you know my cousins...

He read about the Lizza/Nuzzi drama and was like, "Oh hell no..."

The Bass-o-matic got a refresh.

I didn’t know this was a thing. My family took the ‘cousin walk’ to new levels.

While she was complaining about the costs, she was also saying she still wanted to repeal the ACA. Then she complained the GOP had no replacement plan as they kept promising. She realized she got played and Trump is okay to let her go because she isn’t pretty enough for his liking.

That’s what got me about MTG. She owned small businesses. She should’ve known who uses the ACA especially after years of wanting to repeal it. She was on TV revealing her willful ignorance. The willful ignorance of the GOP is their worst crime… aside from whatever is in the Epstein files.

My car isn’t that smart or connected. It warns me when something is behind me. I think this the greatest technological advance since the beep that warns you that your lights on.

He probably believes they’re going to gild the entire reflecting pool in gold instead of just give it a routine cleaning.

It’s only a mental health issue when the assailant is a straight white Christian man.

Tech bros like meaningless chat bots because that’s what they have. They have easy lives where other people do their work for them and tell them how great they are.

Tech bros think we want to be like them and that’s what they are selling.

As Joyce Carol Oates points out, who wants to be like them?

Machine learning for pattern recognition is great for science. But it’s not new. It finds patterns and not meaning.

Chat bot large language models construct replies off predictive patterns and not meaning. People read meaning into it.

Like they read meaning into tech bros…

Your timeline nailed it. All it took is getting someone’s device, changing the password on their iCloud account, accessing their account, and copying the files on to any Apple device. If someone was filming Hunter with his phone, they had access. Videos on the desktop? That’s not where videos go.

The magic of geo phys.

I skimmed the story and it starts with a tale of a massive privacy invasion and then describes what was in the files.

Also, you don’t copy a Mac HD by dragging folders from the desktop. If you can access the drive, you mirror it on to another drive using Time Machine.
