Why in the fuck is the headline portraying a court order as a “request”

Yes and no. The Nationalist Christians have a big persecution fetish.

Gauge deez nuts, ICEatzgruppen

Yeah I’m running 16s and that’s pushing it imo

Holy fuck can you imagine how long it would take to re-stripe a failed drive in a z2 array 😭

The ICEatzgruppen like being on the side of the line that they’re on. They’re pretty much exclusively bullies. They enjoy acting with impunity. They view the world as zero sum, and are convinced there are terrorists and criminals hiding around literally every corner, and that they’re somehow virtuous bloodhounds saving “good Americans” from the “depraved immigrants”. The dudes who executed Alex Pretti were long timers, not fresh hires. Theres no excuse, and there’s no saving them.

Can confirm. Decided to pop for a base MBA, but with 32g ram, about a year ago, and it’s fantastic. Unbelievable battery efficiency, completely silent (passively cooled), and still decently performant for when I want to compile something/do a cpu intensive thing. I’ve used MBPs as corp-issue dev machines for nearly a decade and a half now, so I’m quite comfortable in the ecosystem.

I still have my old T14g2 running fedora, though (in addition to a plethora of non-mobile systems). Also snagged one of those silly-cheap Acer laptops with a fairly late model i3 in it, because it was $200 and had a SODIMM and m.2 slot, just as a spare/extra (it’s running kinoite)

Also, SFO is rather far south of SF proper, and going between there and Santa Clara doesn’t take you through the city.

Do they…? I’ve never thought so for the most part, tbh.

They very obviously redacted things like “don’t” in some PDFs I’ve seen. Hmmm. Don’t. Don T. Wonder why that was done.

Sir, yes, sir.

proceeds to view the Melania movie Wikipedia page to technically comply with orders

is this an order, sir?

Which is hilarious considering how so many of them are getting absolutely wrecked by the tariffs. Because they can either eat the tariff and hemorrhage money, or pass on the tariff to customers and hemorrhage sales (and thus hemorrhage money).

I wonder when they’re gonna realize that they should try something other than shooting themselves in the dick? Time will tell, I suppose.

Yep, and the CEO essentially says as much on a regular basis. Not to mention, the origin of the name of the company is the scrying sphere that Sauron and Saruman (the bad guys) in LOTR use, so that’s telling in a comically dark fashion as well.

I expect Schumer to fold, because he’s really good at doing that

The FOV can’t actually capture that, if you’ve ever seen wearable cam footage.

Hey so can we have this everywhere please?

Lmfao who wants to buy a Chrysler Stellantis product? They’re just… bad. They’re not even cheaper. They’re just worse, and break more.

If you go to a us dealership, there’s pretty much always some sort of financing deal or somesuch. But there’s also very often a “dealer markup”. Never, ever pay that.

That said, for some cars, they refuse to budge on that. For instance, when the new Nissan Z came out a few years ago, the dealers tacked on like 10-15k pretty much across the board, and then Nissan corporate was surprised when it didn’t sell too well… because the dealerships got too fucking greedy.

If I needed to buy a new car, I’d vastly prefer to just spec it out online, click “order”, and then have a text come in when it arrives at my local Nissan or BMW or Hyundai maintenance facility (as appropriate for the car). I do not want to talk to a human and have to literally socially engineer them into giving me a fair fucking price. Jesus christ.

I’m guessing she’s a fan of Emperor Hirohito, too
