People can be both, but generally it seems like MAGAs are more conservative-in-name-only while being genuinely and deeply reactionary. They will tell you they want smaller government (conservative) but then if you get into specific issues they’re happy to list all the things government should do, even if that makes it bigger, like tightly controlling borders and voting. However, a lot of them sincerely believe there are getting to be too many non-whites in their country (reactionary) and that anyone who’s poor deserves to be. Unless it’s them, of course; they’re just down on their luck.

I like how this whole thing reveals how carefully controlled the right-wing info bubble has to be to protect its occupants from reality. Dial in the bias too softly and Grok acknowledges the right is just plain wrong. Dial the bias in too hard and it’s literally Mecha Hitler.

Studies conducted at my desk and on my couch have also found a downward trend in video game quality.

There were so many versions of this. I wonder if Nintendo ever produced or endorsed an official one.

My parents got me one with an orange light, which washed out the colors but (probably) made it less obnoxious to use while they were driving.

Their hope is probably that AI can let current employees bear a greater workload so they can downsize.

They say there are multiple but failed to say which is prohibited, so I will avoid all words that use that letter.

And it’s only going to be read by AI, too, because anyone who would pay for a Melania Trump memoir can’t read.

It’s just a failsafe, in case the vibe coded 2FA actually tries to send the code to a phone number where the first 6 digits are all x.

I played so much Runescape on that keyboard. The actual old school Runescape, where your character was a shitty little sprite.

Is that a motherfuckin Compaq Presario 5000 keyboard?

But… I want to know more.

Comfort hunter is a very snobbish and entitled way to refer to someone offering their time and effort to you.

And wait, was the 2nd post ‘liked’ by the first poster?

Looks like it. You distribute it across the bread.

If you bought your computer after 2010, there’s most likely no reason to throw it out.

Frist of all, how dare yo u

Okay, her pulse is slowing, everyone behind the yellow line!

When saying goodbye to grandma, we all try to ignore the stranger standing nervously in the corner of the room with a fire extinguisher.

I’m not big on the “we have to beat China” rhetoric, but it’s like republican politicians wake up every morning and ask themselves “What can I do today to further Chinese dominance in the next century?”

Too high of a barrier to entry is doomed to fail.

I have. But, in construction engineering, that expectation is pretty commonplace. To be fair, they offered straight pay for OT. I’ve never heard of anyone giving time and a half for it.

Well that’s nice. I’ve worked multiple salaried positions where the unspoken rule obviously was “We can’t explicitly tell you to work more than 40 hours per week, we’re just going to strongly imply that you have no potential for advancement here if you don’t put in extra time.”
