I think this is the best explanation of Musk, period. He didn't arrive at his current ideology because he's ideological. He arrived at it because he's desperately incompetent & needs a government that'll award him money despite his incompetence. Which Trump was desperate enough to promise to do.

But Elon's takeover involved putting in place someone so totally craven and so famously disloyal that I cannot imagine this Hail Mary is going to save him. Just like any conman whose con caught up to him, he's on borrowed time.

And it would be a satisfying comeuppance to watch, if he weren't hellbent on taking the rest of us down with him.

TIL that you can instruct python 3.12 on linux to enable perf profiling support via a PYTHONPERFSUPPORT=1 env variable.

Rocky Mountain towns just do pizza better. Everyone always fights over New York vs Chicago style. But nothing beats small Rocky Mountain town pizza with craft beer in the snow.


1. Ahead of 2025, nearly 120 anti-trans bills have been filed across the United States, far surpassing the 80 bills filed by this time in 2023. The bills target the ability of trans people to move, live, and exist freely as themselves in public. Subscribe to support my journalism. Lets dig in.

The new weekend, time for the new development report from my #opensource projects. Same as in the previous week, a roguelike game, Nim binding to Nuklear library and a system cleaner for FreeBSD got some changes. More info: www.laeran.pl.eu.org/blog/devblog... Happy weekend, everyone. 😁


Please believe me when I say I spent a lot of time watching young men fantasize about becoming terrorists in Nazi chats and Luigi is absolutely living their dream right now. And cops are basically willing stagehands for that show.

I'm not clutching my pearls or anything, just continually marveling at how bad police are at their supposed jobs

Listening to the radio and some Dem congress guy is on saying "Elon and his people talked to all these R's but not to us... These guys are so smart but they need to realize they have to talk to us to blah blah blah" Swear to God I am going to have an aneurysm if Dems keep calling this clod a genius
in reply to Gwen Snyder is uncivil

I am well past expecting most Dems in Congress to display any real critical thinking skills on an individual level but JFC could someone send a "stop licking your enemy's boot" memo or something

Hey remind me, how did that business model work for the social media platform we all just ran away from


Timely reminder that it's worth maintaining a principled stance against the death penalty even when it comes to people who deserve the most fiery pits of hell. They will find their way there eventually with or without our help

The state should not have the power to execute, period. That power should be beyond its purview, period.


Okay this is the first wet blanket thing I will say about the Luigi love, it does freak me out a little to see sainthood killer jokes just because that's SUCH a trope of the terrorist incel and terrorist neo-Nazi far right

Musk considers himself a centrist in a "woke" world that is supposedly shifting left. But then he endorses the Great Replacement theory and expresses support for the Germany political party with ties to neo-Nazis. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/20/w...

Here's the thing: You are correct that INDIVIDUALIZED consumer choices are not going to make or break corporate policy. But organized, COLLECTIVE consumer choices-- like boycotts-- can and do impact corporate decisionmaking.

That's why I asked if there was a boycott call. I don't worry about "ethical" purchasing bc I think it's mostly a marketing scam, but I will absolutely honor organized calls to boycott or show spending preferences, especially when they come from workers. Because that really does work, sometimes.
