My GitHub profile is at https://t.co/5qFMyTTHfl, which I’m definitely not mentioning because it has a link to somewhere else you can find me. If you know what I mean.
@KevinRothrock With every Neal Stephenson book, I am prepared for either the narrative to just abruptly end, or pivot almost jarringly in the third act. It’s just what you have to expect with Stephenson.
@hipsterelectron I swear to god I’ve had nearly the exact same dream. I don’t think it was tied to a specific place, but it was somewhere generically European.
@can I'm moving to New York early next year, and I gotta say, I'm rather happy that I won't have this dipshit representing me for long, if at all. He's truly an astounding dumpster fire.
I'm rereading 2312, and something I always appreciate about Kim Stanley Robinson is that he doesn't refer to the absence of law as anarchy, but as "a libertarian free-for-all".
While it's obviously reprehensible for Elon to give anything to Kadyrov (who isn't exactly a trustworthy sort, so who knows), I find the idea of a Cybertruck technical to be hilariously dumb.
Kadyrov said he received a Tesla Cybertrack from Elon Musk. He promised to send it to the "special military operation" zone and attached a machine gun to it.
"Elon, thank you! Come to Grozny, I will receive you as the most dear guest! I do not think that our Russian MFA will be against such a trip. And, of course, we are waiting for your new developments that will contribute to the completion of the SMO," Kadyrov wrote on his Telegram channel.
Gas guzzlers are gonna be the bulk of motorized combat vehicles for a whiiiile to come. It's a lot easier to bring extra gas or get resupplied in a warzone than to find a functioning Supercharger.
