Remember that James Gunn is on the record as saying that they want the DCU to follow the "graphic novel format rather than the MCU’s comicbook format. Things will be more themed and relatively self contained. See Lanterns as a True Detective story and Clayface as a straight A24 or Neon style body horror film.

Probably why John Stewart’s patrol beat at the end of Lanterns is more focused. More investigation, less super powers.

Holy shit. The lettuce won.

MFW the roofers came to inspect a leak a couple of weeks ago and the kid turned on his phone’s light before climbing into the attic.

You don’t have to “be a fan” in order to support someone’s right to exist.

I have a cousin who is transphobic in the sense that he is very uncomfortable around trans people. He cannot get past it and avoids interactions because he’s so uncomfortable. He also defends trans rights at every turn, publicly and without hesitation. Trans rights are human rights. Full stop.

By the time I was considering an AWD one as a sled carrier, they discontinued it. Now I’m looking at old Tundras and Titans.

As I understand it, the F-150 Lightning was the rare beast that was overengineered in the best way. Ford killed it because they figured out that they made more money making batteries for the grid, so they retooled the facilities for that.

If you bought a Lightning, don’t sell it.

I wonder if people will start to use AI to replace the code once Ford drops support.

I want to take a moment to praise Brent Hecht. I have zero doubt, especially given the chosen language, that he fully expected his “memo” to end up as evidence.

If you work at a company, and see a wrong that needs to be righted, do not underestimate the impact of your strongly worded e-mail.

Many moons ago, I worked for a Fortune 100 company that was doing some shady shit with their employees’ retirement accounts. I had a habit of backing up my Lotus Notes to CD regularly and never deleting emails (yes, that old). I also complained to my manager about what eventually led to the lawsuit. My emails (amongst many others, but still) was included as evidence. The aftermath led to a change in the law regarding retirement accounts and it also led to corporate policy regarding e-mail retention. Wouldn’t help against people who offline backup though. It is very damaging when prosecutors can show hundreds or thousands of emails complaining about the same thing.

Send that email.

Oh yeah, and not five foot tall at the hood by default.

Lanterns ended up being a solid show…assuming they allow it to be a miniseries.

Originally the F-150 was a perfect vehicle for most of non-urban America. It was very inexpensive (not a joke), simple to fix (also not a joke), dependable (I swear I’m not trolling), and very utilitarian. Eventually it became an icon and the default purchase for many, even though the more popular models have lost all of the features that made it attractive to begin with.

Will Bloodborne be freed?

I have an old pixel book pro (or whatever their $1500 Chromebook was called) somewhere. I wonder if there is Libreboot support for it.

EDIT: Looks like it. Not sure what to do with it, but cool that it’s supported.

Matt Gaetz was a piece of shit well before MAGA existed. Look him up.

If you think this feels bad now, wait for the incessant “good guy with a gun” word vomit from the Republicans that is guaranteed to happen now.

I’m glad they were there, but I’d rather no “active shooter” incidents to begin with.

The best t-shirt I have seen all week.

EDIT: I know its not related to Miisha, but I was curious about the coffin, so I searched.

Railway stores backups in the same volume as the data they are supposed to protect.

This was the part that deserved to be in bold.

EDIT: To clarify, a copy in the same volume is not considered a backup by any admin worth a damn.

I’m not defending the vibe coding but the article’s argument here is pretty bad. I am at the top of my field, I have been coding since the mid nineties, bla, blah, blah, and I cannot stand Python. I don’t like it. I don’t want to learn it. That’s not a fault or a deficiency, it’s a choice.

What is a problem is Linus’ decision to go ahead and “code” something on Python even though he had no intention on learning it, then using AI to code something for him that he could not troubleshoot because he doesn’t have the knowledge. That’s reckless.

Its a bad example given that a heart surgeon is trained in surgery first, then specialized later, and that robot assisted surgery is standard now.

I think a better example is an airplane pilot deciding to fly a helicopter but letting a Tesla FSB style system do it for him since he doesn’t feel like learning.
