The granddaddy of science fiction and futurism channels is Science Fiction and Futurism with Isaac Arthur. The channel has content for days about all kinds of shenanigans humans could be getting up to in space and beyond.
A close second is futurist and science fiction author John Michael Godier. His voice will either weigh your soul down to the core of the earth or you’ll find it grating… there’s really no in-between.
Worse case scenario… you get a horse.
PornHub has been doing this. A little popup comes on screen when you pause the video for the first time.
I’ve got a working Intellivision which was originally released in 1979. Mine was fresh off the factory floor in 84, I think that was the last year it was made.
Jeans, a t-shirt, unbuttoned long sleeve flannel, and crew shoes. I keep a hoodie in my desk just in case.
I work at a TV station, it’s 68°F (20°C) in here all year round.
Nah, they’re probably planning to do what Amazon did with their “Just Walk Out” stores… force children into mines and just claim it’s actually AI. As NFT’s, Cryptocurrency, and so many other hype tech fads have taught us: marketing is cheaper than development.
He’s already got my vote. He’s by zero means perfect, but I live in a swing state and cannot throw out “meh it’s terrible, but good enough considering” because it’s not perfect.
Here’s some things he could do to make “meh, it’s terrible but” into just “good”:
I’m having the same issue with message/reply but otherwise it’s a great app.
I mean, it’s a bunch of Linux people and communists… dunno what you were expecting.
In Catholic school in the nineties and early 2000’s, we were all told that the sex abuse scandal was serious but that it was also “a small number of incidents.” That we needed to pray for the victims and the souls of the perpetrators.
Then I went to college. Come to find out not only was the child rape widespread, not only did the church actively hide monsters from legal scrutiny, not only was this all directly effecting the local arch diocese (not my school specifically, but church leaders were forced to quickly rename another high school when allegations against a dead bishop proved too numerous to ignore)… not only all that but that it’s still going on, just not in first world countries with robust networks of journalists and legal systems. That an alleged pedophile was (while I was in college) living in the Vatican, being directly sheltered from extradition by South American authorities.
I guess the lie was that it was all over. That it was a small problem. That the church was a safe place people could turn to. I left the church at 18 over it, became an atheist by 19, and that’s where I’m at now at 35.
It seems the way VC’s throw money at pure unadulterated hype, don’t count them out just yet. So long as you’re good at marketing, you don’t have to be good at development; you don’t have to have a good idea; you don’t have to have a product that does what you’ve promised, works or even exists… they’ll shower a literal pile of shit with money until it sparkles like a Faberge egg if you can only generate buzz.
Yeah, even back in the nineties they were still making good stuff. My mom always bought my jeans there as a kid because they sold a store brand that had reinforced knees. I was an outdoor child and ran through clothing at an alarming rate.
Okay, that makes sense. Was going to ask how proprietary/locked that charger system was as it seems to be the immerging standard.
I was wondering when someone was going to create a Fediverse platform like this. Figured it would be the folks at either PixelFed or Peertube. Can’t wait to try it out!
So… like Pornhub has done for years now?
The porn hasn’t been very good. I can get around dudes and chicks with like fourteen fingers, no toes, and nipples that hover over their skin… but I draw the line at the dirty talk being “I’m glad I could help you with that.”
I’m guessing it was a tower like this one.
Balanced on a single anchor point foundation with guy-wires stabilizing it from all sides.
Automation and it’s also possible this was a repeater tower… so, not the main broadcast tower but one that fills in a dead zone within the market. Radio and TV stations use repeaters in areas with a lot of hills or tall buildings.
*especially if you’ve got nothing to hide.
