Hasan Piker: “Every dollar spent on a bomb that Israel drops on a school is a dollar stolen from you because that’s a dollar that could’ve been used to build a school in your neighborhood. That’s your productive output used for the death machine to kill other people’s kids”
@10BottleValueCo So what value do you provide when the legitimate Chinese suppliers sell RT30 kits for approx $180? Lol.
You’ve got no COA of your own and it ships from your supplier anyway??
Hate him or love him, the best thing about Trump has always been that he drops all pretenses and says what nobody else will, whether it’s that Jeb’s brother lied us into Iraq, Marco Rubio is Sheldon Adelson’s puppet, we’re staying in Syria for the oil, the Adelsons love Israel more than the US, the war in Venezuela is about oil, or we went to war with Iran “out of habit [and] for Israel.” And there’s so many examples.
all i know is that when i play civ and move all my troops one tile away from my much weaker ai opponent it's to make an agreement to trade resources for the next 30 turns and that's it
I actually dont care if he saved puppies from a burning house while curing cancer in a steel mill.
You do NOT have to be a “good person” for it to still be WRONG for the police to kill unarmed people. I’m NOT going to play into that
You have two choices:
Believe whatever you want to believe based solely on your political beliefs, or believe the truth.
The truth is that nine “trained” and armed ICE officers could not restrain one man. They then proceeded to jump on him, pistol-whip him, relieve him of his weapon, which the law states he can carry, and then they shot him. Not once, not twice, but nine times.
In the mind of any sane human being, this is called murder.
I think the mistake many have made in regards to Trump is overestimating him: believing he is playing 3D chess, or that he is governed by strategy, morality, clear geopolitical incentives, etc. When really, it comes down to “I didn’t get my prize, so I’m invading Greenland”

BREAKING: Boris and Sofia Gurman, 69 and 61, have been identified as the couple who heroically tried to stop the terrorist as he exited his car before the Chanukah massacre in Bondi Beach.
The couple attempted to prevent him from opening fire. After several minutes of struggle, the gunman overpowered them, regained his weapon, and shot Boris and Sofia.
Boris and Sofia’s selfless act of courage will never be forgotten.
May their memories forever be a blessing.
In a world that grows numb to cruelty, be like Ahmed al-Ahmed, who ran toward danger to protect life.
That is Islam.
We mourn the victims of today’s attack in Australia and pray for safety and sanity everywhere.
May those who murder while cloaked in power or false righteousness leave no legacy worth repeating.
Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.
$30 per seat per month.
$1.4 million annually.
I called it "digital transformation."
The board loved that phrase.
They approved it in eleven minutes.
No one asked what it would actually do.
Including me.
I told everyone it would "10x productivity."
That's not a real number.
But it sounds like one.
HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.
I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."
They stopped asking.
Three months later I checked the usage reports.
47 people had opened it.
12 had used it more than once.
One of them was me.
I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.
It took 45 seconds.
Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.
But I called it a "pilot success."
Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.
The CFO asked about ROI.
I showed him a graph.
The graph went up and to the right.
It measured "AI enablement."
I made that metric up.
He nodded approvingly.
We're "AI-enabled" now.
I don't know what that means.
But it's in our investor deck.
A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.
I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."
He asked what that meant.
I said "compliance."
He asked which compliance.
I said "all of them."
He looked skeptical.
I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."
He stopped asking questions.
Microsoft sent a case study team.
They wanted to feature us as a success story.
I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."
I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.
They didn't verify it.
They never do.
Now we're on Microsoft's website.
"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."
The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.
He got 3,000 likes.
He's never used Copilot.
None of the executives have.
We have an exemption.
"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."
I wrote that policy.
The licenses renew next month.
I'm requesting an expansion.
5,000 more seats.
We haven't used the first 4,000.
But this time we'll "drive adoption."
Adoption means mandatory training.
Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.
But completion will be tracked.
Completion is a metric.
Metrics go in dashboards.
Dashboards go in board presentations.
Board presentations get me promoted.
I'll be SVP by Q3.
I still don't know what Copilot does.
But I know what it's for.
It's for showing we're "investing in AI."
Investment means spending.
Spending means commitment.
Commitment means we're serious about the future.
The future is whatever I say it is.
As long as the graph goes up and to the right.
