A million subscribers in the swing states is not easily dismissed. If the election was just a popular vote I’d agree, his numbers are inconsequential. But unfortunately it’s the swing states that really matter for the presidential election.

Go to the top podcast lists and you’ll see that one is also dominated by right-wing personalities too.

This must have been a sweet spot in history when licensing music fees for video games were not as expensive?

I wonder if a similar project could be done today now that everyone knows gaming is a huge industry.

His brain is not working properly after the stroke.

Oh shit, this is the same person whose son died of an overdose at UC berkeley not long ago. In a sense I’m not surprised she passed, some people die of a broken heart.

That’s not good usage, why would you want to associate spitting with your food? It’s totally unprompted, like a church having a sign saying “we don’t molest children”

Their stock is up though, I don’t see them changing their ways if stock price is unaffected. That’s all they care about.

7 nation army by the white stripes. It gets played after a goal is scored in football stadiums across the world.

What I don’t understand are the calls for Biden to step down from the NYT but no calls are made for Trump to step down.

If you see the corruption of our institutions, voting for gop will accelerate that. For a hope of a reversal the only option are democrats. Imperfect yes. But there’s no choice.

I think the original text was about ham radio.

The company is called “Safe Super Intelligence”. Not a fan of names like these, kind of like if a company called itself “safe airplanes”, there’s something about it that makes me think it won’t live up to the name.

Not sure how they plan on raising money when so many other AI companies are promising commercialization. A company prioritizing safety will be defeated by another prioritizing profit. A company like this could have flourished in the time before openAI, but right now there’s so much demand for gpus and talent that makes it very challenging to catch up, more so when less scrupulous companies offer more money for engineers. They’d have to hire from a smaller and more limited pool of applicants that believe in the mission.

I take a gummy, play an album in the background. Sleep like a baby.

What are better alternatives to fandom? I see the incumbents name get repeated more often than the alternative unfortunately.

Good luck Argentina
