I added a rule in my .htaccess for their user agents to direct all requests to a static page on my domain.

We’re about to see.

There’s only 4 buildings left in the town as of 2026. There’s 2 houses that will be demolished when the residents move out, what looks to be a junkyard, and a fire station. There are also barricades because south of town the state had to move PA 61 east and blocked off the old pavement.

You can tell a pattern.

1. They want to do something unconstitutional/illegal but want a reason to try to justify it.
2. They do a false flag operation to cause a relevant problem or point to something tangential to the problem.
3. They use Step 2 as the reason and do the thing in Step 1.
4. Pretend Step 2 is a real problem and/or they didn’t do it themselves until proven otherwise to anyone with a functioning brain.
5. Refuse to undo Step 3 unless forced to by Congress or the courts.

Did you not know about the magical incantations that would silence them? The AT codes for the modem were a lifesaver if you were trying to get on the internet without anyone knowing.

And once AI can no longer sustain itself once people become reliant on it, you get the modern version of “The Machine Stops” by E. M. Forster from 1909: https://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/~rogaway/classes/188/materials/the machine stops.pdf

At least willingly. Work doesn’t allow us to install Firefox.

Their math is off by an order of magnitude. The US has about 4.25% of the Earth’s population, not 0.4%.

There! That’s a passing test but doesn’t test anything. That’s why you write your own tests instead of having a machine do it for you.

Not always true. I got a notice from my ISP for downloading Airplane! which was released in 1980.

Watching even a fraction of a second of a video now counts as a view.

I think what metrics we need to see are “engaged views” which is watching at least 30 seconds and “average watch time” for the interview.

There was plenty of it going on around here. Even after Napster was taken down, there was Kazaa, Limewire, and your choice of Gnutella client. It was mostly us downloading stuff to listen to on the bus because high speed internet was rare unless you were in a city.

Good luck. We’re all counting on you.

I had a can of it and made some Reuben sandwiches.

There were 8 options and Debian has ranked choice voting. This was actually around the middle of the spectrum of options, so with half voting most to least restrictive and the other vice versa, the middle of the road choice won.

It’s from a prediction market site (which is just gambling in a trenchcoat and Groucho Marx glasses) where you buy shares in the prediction of an outcome. That’s the price for a share in “Yes”.

Al does not give a shit anymore, especially if the game is terrible.

Who in their right mind is signing a player whose case is still going through the legal system? He could face life in prison or prison time long enough that his NFL career will be gone by the time he is released.
