Holy shit, Murkowski crossed the line to vote nay.

Not even our first Republican president to get carried through his second term with the onset of dementia.

AI product pushing, absolutely. I actually fairly shocked there isn't more. Probably because they can't actually predict the output.

"You can do get the most efficient results at the lowest TCO with [insert vendor's product]!"

Yeah, it's real. Here's the link with the 404 refcode so they know where you came from.

Is he stupid? I don't know. He makes a living and has a recognizable name, so he has something figured out. He is certainly a neoliberal stooge and a fascist apologist.

But you get ai answers with Google now so... It's basically the same.

That is absolutely correct.

Thursday morning, Ezra Klein at the New York Times published a column titled “Charlie Kirk Was Practicing Politics the Right Way.”

Tell me you never listened to Charlie Kirk without telling me you never listened to Charlie Kirk.

Goddamn fascist apologists.

Compromise is a hard pill to swallow. Or ... It's a suppository! (I suppose; latin word roots are fun).

Most of these strike me as nothingburgers, but that in itself is incredibly disappointing. We can't really get our hopes up with a corporate shill, so I guess I have to default to applying the nirvana fallacy.

We live in goddamn soulcrushing times.

An hour of ideal developer time. Too bad there's only 3 of 4 of those per quarter.

Quesabirria from the local taco place. Didn't even realize we were celebrating!

 
 

I don't really have anyone else to shout at about this, but it's an amazing way to host services in rootless containers entirely in user space using systemd (systemctl --user).

Anyone else spending their weekend with the Sonoma action?

I've been jumping between the feeds for all the races/qualifying today. The Toyota GR Cup was particularly fun to watch. The new McLaren series seems like it could shape up pretty well too!

Got the uppers painted and installed.

Time to find some MDF for the face frame, drawer fronts, and shelves. Which reminds me, I need a router bit for the integrated drawer pulls she wants.

 

My first project is really coming together!

Built a set of drawers cabinets to my wife's specs for the closet. Still have uppers, face frame and overlay fronts to do, but the garage was too full to keep going.

4ft (122cm) tall bank of drawers with full extension soft close undermount slides. 88in.(222cm) wide.

Feel free to make fun of the 2x4 toe kick! Rest assured I've learned my lesson.

All cuts made with my portable DeWalt table saw after breaking down sheets with my Ryobi circular saw and a harbor freight clamp as an edge guide.
