Ik haal er veel info vandaan, maar voor de rest is de interactie echt veel minder op #BS
Het is eenrichtingsverkeer en vooral volgers buiten NL.
Daar heb ik niets mee.
Regarding #Trump's recent physical...
1. Trump lies. Constantly. About everything. It's his default state of being, and is as natural as breathing to him.
2. Trump has a massive ego and also a massive inferiority complex. He needs constant fluffing and reinforcement. He has to be told he is better, handsomer, smarter, everything-er than everybody else.
Put those together, and you get:
3. The things Trump lies about more than anything else are ... himself. He cheats at golf to win tournaments at clubs he owns, so he can be "champion". He brags about first-placing in contests or comparisons that didn't happen or which don't rank participants at all. And on and on...
What's this got to do with his physical?
Well, he announced his results and it says he's 6'3" and weighs 224 pounds.
Which, if true, would mean he's 5 or 6 inches taller than me, but weighs the same. Anyone familiar with how scaling a 3D object up by linear factor X affects mass is now laughing their guts out.
He is *far* more obese than me. Of *course* he's lying about his weight. If he's less than 270 pounds I will eat my hat, and it would not surprise me in the least if he weighed 300 pounds.
So, do you want your government run by a pathetically insecure man-baby who has to lie about his weight to feel better than everyone else?
Shame on his doctor putting his signature to such bullshit.
Rule of thumb: if a company operating in a highly technical scientific space chooses to release its progress reports or results in an "exclusive" with a mainstream media outlet, rather than via a scientific journal, it's not a scientific company. It's a financial grift.
$omehow, in the #8bitwar the #C64 was much more popular even when specs been almost the same. The difference in #BASIC language was less significant for the success. Most likely that competition was won by #Commodore because Jack Tramiel took the advice of his grandfather so serious.

“[w]e are able to gaze into the 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 face of a bronze age royal woman – and it 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 is a face to launch a thousand ships."
Yeah, truly, there is a modern #Greek saying, "a pus*y can tug a ship", so why not a thousand ships? A few bones found 75 years ago give us certainty about her face, and in spite of already having arthritis and dying in her 30s, she looked just like the girl in the picture

According to economist Richard D Wolff the notion of "Liberation Day" is white supremacist BS.
The US is to this day a colonial superpower. The notion that the US is "liberating itself" from China, Vietnam and other countries they are imposing tariffs on is total BS. Trump is manipulating his base into believing that the US a victim of unfair trading.
And that's just a small portion of what's wrong with Trump's tariffs.
25+ years after the Ice Storm of 1998 and almost 2 years to the day of the 2023 Ice Storm... WHY DOESN'T HYDRO-QUÉBEC BURY MORE POWER LINES?!?

Modern #TechStack|s are convenient but they also make #developers lazy and result in the #enfattening of #Software and #Games.
- Like we had entire Music Videos on the spare space of a #NeoGeoCD which meant this needed to be streamed, and mind you this is redbook CD Audio, not fancy ATRAC3 or Opus...
Nowadays we have shitty #WebApps that eat up 100+MB just for a #WebView and which are instantly useless once they don't have a high-speed, low latency internet connection!
- People like #GraceHopper and #MargaretHamilton propably wouldn't even be mad, but just disappointed, knowing how a modern #IDE eats more computing power than the entire human race had at their career peaks...
And don't even get me started on all the #WastefulComputing aka. "#AI" #bs and #Shitcoin - #Scams!

My lesson came ~2012-2014, when the media company I worked for had decided to invest heavily in Google's office products (to replace MS Office). I dutifully learned all I could of their APIs, to convert Google documents (of all types) into HTML content for publication, with near-live updates.

Doesn't make sense to me help feeding their digital art machine with young and sometimes very talented noobs. Won't make it easier for them to get addicted to (very 1980s) old, quite expensive, and bad habits.
Think it's better if I encourage young artists to replace #DRM #IP #BS with #FreeSoftware like #Inkscape or #Krita, but that's just mho.
@rooftopjaxx @benda #BS is a gray lie, it was always planned to be a #dotcons and spoiler for the real #openweb move, in this it's very attractive to the current #mainstreaming so it is no surprise this twitter crew flocked to it, we need to make the real choice clearer to see, the #hashtag story can do this.

"SpaceX’s #Starship explodes in second failure for Musk’s 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘀 program. Back-to-back mishaps indicate big setbacks for program to […] 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘀"
(#ChatGPT? Is that you?)
Have they at The Guardian seen a "program" that we haven't?
#Musk has no "program" for #Mars, just graphics. #SpaceX is a cargo (space)ship company polluting the planet, not a space agency. #NASA, the most successful space agency, is not mentioned even once in the article.
