Not all datacenters are evil AI factories. VPSs and cloud storage existed before the AI bubble. They will remain after the bubble bursts. I utilize more than a handful of them. They need to expand too. Stop hating on my servers and backups.

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.

I told Google I follow the Bulls and the Bucks. Why does Google feel the need to tell me the winning percentage and a dice icon? I most certainly didn't ask for that information. I don't gamble. In addition, it is ruining sports.

Historians will remember 2026 as the year Americans realized Bernie and the rest of the world are right. 2026 will also be remembered as the year Americans realized there are alternative, viable, if not better, desktop operating systems. The AI bubble is bursting as we speak.

How many millions don't have healthcare because Obama lives rent free in his head? Can't have a law by President McBlackie that everyone likes, including red hats. People have/are/will die. A month without lifesaving medication? Insulin? Treatments? Procedures? Thanks Schumer, Durbin, et al.

The best Bears season in long time. It was wonderful. Maybe a little too cardiac for a city full of fans known for doing self-CPR. #Da_Bears

New dating system. Forget that AD and BC stuff. Going forward it's BBBP2 or ABBP2. Before the Bears Beat the Packers twice. After the Bears Beat the Packers twice. The Bears won the Superbowl in the year 40 BBBP2. #Da_Bears

This AI bubble needs to burst already. I asked Google a simple question I know is being asked: "What channel is the Bear's game on?" After the obligatory reference and fluff, I asked it to repeat the answer. It actually said: "I don't remember." This is why RAM/storage are at astronomical prices?

​​I'm just glad they were adversaries in the end. Epstein had him dead to rights. That evidence exists. It'll come out. Epstein knew him and what he is capable of. I'm pretty sure Epstein planned for distribution. At least two safes.

We need to plan for the inevitable. No matter what fascism occurs until then. I know a bucket list when I see one. Anyway, MAGA dies with him. Vance can't hold it together. Military won't follow. Being Republican will become radioactive. Majority w/o elections because of defections. New leadership.

I've been a Google fanboy since receiving my Gmail invite in Sept. 2004 However, the honeymoon is over. It's been series of actions that have changed my relationship with Google. Motto change. Killing popular products like Inbox. Now this $24.5M YT settlement. Google, Bill Burr & MTG? End Times.

They are purposely showing a president with dementia, videos from the past in order to execute fascism. Isn't that illegal? If repubs were true Americans, they would 2/3 up and remove him involuntarily thru the 25th. He doesn't have the military. Who am I kidding? Half of THIS cabinet? Yeah right.
