@arstechnica 6? For the entirety of the usps fleet?

@arstechnica The Hellstrom Chronicle

@arstechnica really an SUV though.

@arstechnica I like to see more contrast in some scenes make to look more period, but I know they still had to do a lot of work to even make it read in b&w. It will probably still have a psychological effect, but I was hoping a bit more of its modernity would fade.

@arstechnica I’m sure there are Tesla execs and others that would jump at the opportunity to seperate from Musk.

@arstechnica those Tubes that double as numerical displays? People LOVE those.

@arstechnica I do not sign in to use Google. I do not sign in to use YouTube. They track me anyway and I’m fine with that. I am not using ad blockers.

But if they demand account level tracking from all users, they are going to be tracking, and serving ads to , far fewer users and it will be their AND their advertisers loss.

@arstechnica I haven’t had a single YouTube vid play through today.
I don’t actively use any ad blockers to my knowledge. I see YouTube ads all the time generally, using default mobile safari.

Thanks, I love being reminded of Orions relation to the Milky Way.

@arstechnica it’s cute, but I’m not so hot on n64 graphics that I would build a version of Portal just to prove it could be done.

@arstechnica Guess that leaves Parallels, for consumers.

Things like this tend to happen when business shifts towards a ‘business to business’ model.

@arstechnica When I grew up doctors said, you need vaccination, time for your vaccination!, and we said ‘Garsh! Yup! Of course, doc, stick me!

Today In deep red America, clinicians are afraid to bring up the topic, as it might raise controversy, or worse, they believe the conspiracy angles themselves.

@arstechnica it’s not like x has access to phone numbers, accounts, or knows anything about spoofing phone numbers or posts.

Wait, what’s that… it does?

@arstechnica sometimes I will look for the teapot in a Milky Way photo, as it is near the brightest part of the Milky Way but one of the few indicators I can see in my mag 3 skies where the Milky Way itself is not visible.

@arstechnica Mine is using Clarence’s chatGPT, which wants to sell me a new set of tires.

@arstechnica latency may be an issue. Asynchronous communications can weather latency somewhat.

@arstechnica hell what percentage are even bought for graphic performance anymore with bitcoin bros buying them for mining farms, they don’t care

@arstechnica where is the magnetic force strongest? Are the particle themselves charged? Are they flowing towards the magnet?

@arstechnica trouble for Middleby Taylor and McDonald’s if this goes to jury trial. McDonald’s customers know from experience that at least the soft serve machines do not work in a high percentage of situations, one in five, for whatever reason.

If Ray Kroc were alive this never would have gotten this far. The franchise was built on ice cream devices, regardless of its importance to the chain now.

It was at zenith on a clear good night last night, but still the just barely discernible smudge in my light polluted skies. Seeing a bit more under darker skies naked eye is really grand though.
