Microsoft dropped -10% today despite earnings and revenue ($81.27B vs. $80.27B expected) beats. Reasons include

1. Data center spending growing faster than revenue because they have a growing customer backlog.
2. 45% of that customer backlog is OpenAI who everyone is skeptical of their ability to pay in the long run.

Democrats proving that they are the 2nd worst political party in America once again. Demanding that ICE wear body cams. Did they not see the video where he filmed himself shooting her in the face with his own cell phone? What the fuck do you think a body cam is gonna do. They’re proud of it. They want you to see it. They are terrorists.

스페이스X와 xAI, 그러니까 머스크의 개인회사 구 트위터가 합병할거라고. 스엑이 상장하는거 생각하면 진짜 웃긴 짓거리네요. 적자 감당이 안 되겠지.. 국내에 트위터의 투자유치로 언급된 보도 후속인 듯. 정말로 트위터는 화성을 가네요.

Yesterday I wondered aloud why RSS readers look like email clients.

@brentsimmons replied. Turns out he borrowed that layout for NetNewsWire in 2002 — and twenty years later, he's asking why no one's tried something different.

That conversation became an essay. I built a visual version (with an ASCII fallback).

Filming Cops For Scared People

If you are in a public space and "a safe distance away" and "not getting in the way" you are following all of the laws when filming openly.

Shockingly even if you are clearly doing all of these things a police officer may react as if you aren't. Be ready for that reaction.

The more people do this the more video there will be so the truth gets out to the public. But, even if the video isn't important it sends a message about your community and expectations.

Filming Cops For Scared People

@futurebirdmyrmepropagandist

The more videos there are from more angles, the harder it gets for anyone to fake a video as it would have to match up with the rest 100%.

Due to various ways of faking things, it's more important than ever to have multiple angles in order to preserve the truth.

It is really hard to fake something when there are multiple other genuine angles of the same event.

TIL that you can enable 120hz refresh rate with UTM/QEMU by using the "video" kernel command line option, for example:

video=Virtual-1:3840x2160@120

I wonder why this isn't exposed in UTM settings and/or why QEMU display EDID only exposes 60/75hz modes by default.

vivaldiが更新して、タブをおしゃれタブみたいに1画面に大量に表示する機能ができてとてもいい感じだけど、相変わらず、はてなブックマークのコメントをXに転送するときにポップアップの入力画面とTL上部の入力画面と同時に表示されてるな。リロードしないと消えない。これダルいからやめてほしいけど、もしかしてXの改悪だから直しようがないのかな?スマホからなら問題はないんだけど。

@codinghorrorJeff Atwood heh I discovered Georgism from Usenet 25 years ago now.

Henry George got his idea while living in SF and seeing the previously open land of the east bay shoot up in value . . . that was his 'ah hah' moment, and once you see it, you can't unsee it it.

Mason Gaffney's en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Corr is good, but the core document I go to is this:

Norway avoided "Dutch Disease" brilliantly, Russia, not so much...
