Working in IT at the time, we were fairly sure things would be fine by the time New Years Eve rolled around,. Even going so far as to camp overnight outside at the Rose Parade, a wild time on a normal year and ridiculous in 1999 with Colorado Blvd packed with partyers.

The moment came and, of course, nothing really happened...except some GENIUS thought it would be a good idea to set off a giant firework at the college next door, scaring the living shit out of a few thousand people. Good times.

Keep up the great work.

The problem is where you said "as long as" because we already know companies AND the AI itself can't be trusted to not expose sensitive info inadvertently. At absolute best, it's another vector to be breached.

Just go in knowing it likely will not be sheets of aurora like you see elsewhere but instead quick splashes of green hues. Still could be pretty cool though, hope you can see something!

"The market" (stocks) has been and will continue to be divorced from reality but to play devil's advocate, Tesla and it's investors consider it "more than just a car company". It's still ridiculous, but that's the market for ya.

While odd looking to some of us, they were actually right. That's 56,000 "millions" or 56,000 x 1,000,000 = 56 billion. A mind blowing amount of cash.

I will never understand...

You might try reading up on it (or the link someone posted) as you've got it wrong. That's why this has been such a huge issue, they are unlike other loans.

Even better!

We are but I just use a Lemmy viewer that can block entire instances, problem solved.

Actually, it doesn't. Instead of looking at the nuance of the progressive side, you only need to look at the complete lack of vision, policies and outright lies that the right is now full of. Not just voting against their constituents wishes but against their OWN policies. Defense bills that might make a democrat look good, can't have that. Healthcare plans that they champion until Obama's name is on it. And those are just the low hanging, obvious fruit.

"Both sides" have their issues but it's crystal fucking clear which one has gone off the rails and is against almost everything this country was founded on. If you can't see it, you're bubbled. Plain and simple.

I somehow missed it years ago but recently binged it. Amazing series.

15 years ago maybe, to claim it now shows you've been in a news bubble. Get some new perspective.

Whatever the hell this song is supposed to be. The more you watch, the weirder it gets.

The remix still slaps.

Great find, saving these.

I just listened to the Commentary track (main cast) on the Blu-ray the other day and it was excellent. Worth a rewatch for any fans.

Along with Sneakers (1992), it's still regarded as one of the most accurate hacking movies ever despite the over the top visuals (which were all practical, no CGI). Most of those social engineering tricks still work.

I've found it pretty easy to avoid with a bit of curation but I understand they're a "necessary" evil that comes with every major user migration.

Yet, annoyingly, much of the press still uses it to disseminate news.

I understand journalism is in a rough spot these days and many are there against their will but something needs to change abruptly. This slow exodus is too slow for democracy to survive '24.

World's Best doesn't either, they use a thicker, different material that cuts way down on dust. It doesn't quite clump as well as others but it's close enough for me.
