The Breakfast Club was a 1985 movie depiction of teen rebellion for GenX teens written and directed by John Hughes where the teens act out against the rules and are smarter than the adults around them.
Not to be confused with “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” which was a 1986 movie depiction of teen rebellion for GenX teens written and directed by John Hughes where the teens act out against the rules and are smarter than the adults around them.
I prefer the latter to the former.
How to punish Iran? Convince the people of Iran to elect trump as their president. The damage and destruction caused to the domestic economy would devastate Iran even further.
I think I see your problem. You don’t know what shitposting is. “Punching down” is not shitposting.

We already have instructions to follow after the President dies. Its all laid out in the US Constitution. trump doesn’t get to decide what the nation does once he’s no longer President.
it’s already enshittified with many customers reporting consistently double the ping and half the download speeds from their original experience.
I don’t think that is an example of enshitification in this case. In the technical world there are measurements for this call SLAs (Service Level Agreements). This means that if you pay for a specific service with contractually delivered performance. The service needs to deliver at least that level of performance, or you are entitled to refunds/credits/resitution for the service provider not meeting their obligations.
Now, just because a service provider is required to deliver a minimum of service, they can (and frequently do) provide even better service than they are obligated to. This is pretty typical of technology services where a new platform is being built out and there is lots of spare capacity as users are just being onboarded. I have no doubt that there were Starlink users that got fantastic performance when only a fraction of the network was in use by others. If this is their baseline, then from their perspective, they are getting less than they did before. If the performance still meets what was sold to them contractually, then they’re still getting what they paid for they’re just not getting a whole bunch more they never paid for.
It’s not the idea of a truly globally accessible internet that makes it worthless, it is the fact it is being done by a for-profit publicly-traded company owned by a trillionaire. Any one of those three things would mean the product is guaranteed to get worse eventually, all three mean it is guaranteed to get worse as quickly as possible.
That’s … a pretty questionable definition of “objectively worthless” then. By that definition all products or services from non-government owned companies would meet that definition of “objectively worthless”. I’m confident that moves the definition from “objectively worthless” to “subjectively worthless”.
You’re very welcome to hold that opinion, but I think the majority of its subscribers would disagree with you.
objectively worthless pet project
Regardless that Musk is a nazi-saluting asshole, lots of folks in working class rural regions around the world would disagree with calling it worthless. As an example, I visited southern Alaska recently and Starlink is very much in use there on working class small homes.
It depends on what you mean by robotic mowers. If you mean motors that drive the wheels and you don’t have to walk behind them (or sit on them), yes, these exist without any cloud service. However, if you mean autonomous, then I don’t think those are here yet. The non-cloud robot mowers use human held remote controls.
I can think of one that is autonomous and doesn’t require the cloud for operation, but does require the cloud for the inital setup and mapping. Once it has the map loaded in, it doesn’t need an internet connection.
That pretty well describes 1st generation robo mowers: lawn roombas.
Thankfully they’ve evolved significantly since then and are on 4th generation tech now.
I’m not optimistic enough to assume that Trump didn’t get what he wanted out of this
I know its yet another flip flop on a trump campaign promise which in itself should cause him to lose favor with his supporters, but we’ve all been around long enough to know how much they forgive him for screwing all of us. I will say that I live in a fairly red area and for months after the election many people around here left up their trump campaign garbage (flags, posters, yard signs, etc). However since the Iran war began almost off of that is gone now.
I’m hoping this will be costly to trump in the midterm elections and that we can get a congress that actually acts as a check on executive power instead of a “blank check” for anything on trump’s horrible xmas list.
DenverCoder9 strikes again?
I can see the advertising campaign for that one already: “Get on the fucking train, Shinji”
This tweet from her matches Russian political positions. Especially considering that Russia had seized almost 1/3 of Ukraine when she tweeted this. It was particularly tone deaf on Stein’s part because Ukraine had surrendered its nukes, and its reward was being invaded by the country it gave the nukes to.
Steins dinner with Putin was in 2015, so post invasion of Crimea and over a year into Russian “little green men” invading the Donbas.
First, I’m not stupid enough to go to Russia to celebrate their propaganda apparatus like she did. Second, I notice you selectively ignored the other option of her just standing up and walking away.
You’re working very hard to craft some kind of narrative trying to convince us she has repeated poor decision making (a bad quality for a President). Are you trying to do that because the other, more likely scenario, is the reality she’s willing tool for Russia?
That explanation isn’t helping her cause or that of the Greens. She actively went to a celebration of the Russian state propaganda machine, that is mistake #1. Then, according to you, she made a choice to continue to sit silently a table with Putin. She could have either kept quiet, stood up and removed herself, or she could have exercised some statesmenship and when presented with the President of Russia, challenge him on his policies of invasion of the sovereign country of Ukraine killing its citizens and kidnapping its children in the Donbas.
Instead, according to you, she sat silent.
she did not have dinner with putin. this is misinformation
You’re looking at the picture. Both Stein and Putin are sitting at the same table. There is food in front of both. Are you claiming the photo is fake? Or are you playing word games where the meal was something like “lunch” instead of “dinner”?
The ruling parties love to smear the Greens on this side of the pond too, unfortunately
The Greens on the USA side of the pond do a great job of smearing themselves.
Here’s the US Green Party 2024 Presidential candidate Jill Stein having dinner with Vladimir Putin, members of Putin’s senior staff, and self admitted registered foreign agent for the Turkish government, Michael Flynn.
Musk is an ass, and wrong here, but for others confused by the headline here’s the quote:
“And so the slaughter continues,” Musk wrote on X. “Time for Zelensky to go.”
Why isn’t Musk asking for Putin to “go” as its Russia’s slaughtering that is causing all of this? Ukraine isn’t invading Russia. Russia could stop this TODAY by pulling all its troops out of Ukraine and stopping its attacks on Ukrainian cities and civilians.
