Electrical tape

Moving 100k eggs before they expire is crazy too, really hope they Robin Hooded them to like every local food bank and stuff

The first one was where you do pogroms against the antisemetic stereotype race, right? What's the second one going to be, fantasy Holocaust?

as an experienced 100x ninja rockstar myself, those are exactly the kind of people you don't want pushing patches to systems like this - they know just enough to be dangerous. Unless, of course, you want to move fast and break the, uhh, US Treasury... in which case, critical support

Material conditions will improve in my lifetime

Yeah, I think Posadism is my answer too

hilariously agonizing that the dems can only muster this energy for the shuttering of a regime change apparatus

Devops

Some days, the spoon bends you

Speculating: the breakdown of existing environmental plastics into smaller, more absorbable pollutants? existing plastics more thoroughly polluting the food/water supplies?

You're right

Yep, that's the thing that gets me every time.

One of the key principles of my job is to make it as easy as possible for people to do the "right" thing and as hard as possible to make bad choices. And I'm constantly applying that principle to my own workflows to outmaneuver my brain's busted reward centers so I can trick myself into doing laundry or whatever. So I'm often hyperaware of the structural inconveniences imposed on me and on all of us, and how it's a Sisyphean endeavor to try to do anything that runs counter to how society is structured. Impossible and maddening.

Yeah, obviously they're not going to publish the Names and Addresses bit, but they talk about how plastic production still increasing in the article, so even some milquetoast liberal "contact your representatives" or "boycott plastic companies" would be an improvement

love how it ends with a bunch of personal responsibility bs for trying to limit your plastic intake, very cool

security is a good one, if you like reverse engineering stuff and want to make sure you do at least a little bit of writing code, you might also like something in the devops/site reliability/infrastructure realm. Often has a lot of overlap with security too

Kitties

Not quite real-time, but Hexbear's daily mega thread is great for casual chat and diaryposting IME

Unless you mean voice chat, then idk

One of them is a business ghoul with the previous title of "investment engineering intern" at a hedge fund, two appear to be CS-related with AI brainworms, the others are less clear to me.

I can't think of a worse group than CS and business ghoul interns to be in charge of efficiency or even "efficiency"

No wonder Trump's been talking about doing away with the intelligence agencies, capital is gonna have him grassy knolled if he keeps doing shit so stupid it affects their bottom line

Blackshirts and Reds was my first thought too, but I agree it's not quite what OP is looking for. Still worth a read if they haven't yet though.
