mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 15hWTF is wrong with Susan Dell? It looks like she's ready to fall over backwards? 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 17hAnd yet for decades we've allowed this place to gatekeep who gets nominated for the presidency 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I wish more people would internalize that this is what the currently hyped "AI" actually is. 070

mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Too bad for him that data centers are *the* wraparound issue in this election cycle. 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 13/09/2026There is it. Complaining about the reffing. Knew it would come out sooner or later. 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Yeah, they're slowing down the hype train because the economics don't fucking work: never have and never will. This is Enron meets the financial crisis. 010
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 12/09/2026And he has to spend a bunch of money on trying to buy the governor's race. Again. 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Same - mine usually has sports going on a TV and they have a horse race betting pool between the three of them. Loser buys dinner at the end. 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 11/09/2026LOL, I watched the women's doubles and then turned off the TV. Will watch the Tiafoe v. Shelton match later on today. 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 05/09/2026We put out a bait trap with poison covered in bacon grease in it and the king/queen rat filled the trap with dirt. 010
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Are you living in my house right now? Last night we had one that triggered a trap and left behind a pool of blood. Saw him laying about 15 feet away not moving. After about 5 minutes, he came to, and ran off. Not only smart but tough. 000
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 04/09/2026If you used "AI" (sarcastic) it would have given you 35 incorrect commands, obsequiously apologized, and wasted 3-4 hours of your life. 010
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Time to remind the rural voters that the reason they can live where they do is because taxes provide the money to build and maintain the roads to those rural places. 2110
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 03/09/2026His daughter does stand up and she has some really funny stories about growing up during the height of his career. 020
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 03/09/2026It's funny - when tech journalism started this was pretty much the play, hyping the industry and parroting the press released. Now @wired.com and @404media.co are two of the better sources of news generally. 010
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I grew up on a farm. We had a mated pair of Greylag geese. Inside the barn door there was an ax handle, specifically to ward off the male goose. Once it trapped my mom and bit her a bunch of times. My dad hit that thing three times before he knocked it out. We had goose for dinner the next week. 120
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 01/09/2026You should look at all of the people simping for Flock on LinkedIn today. Nearly identical posts comparing Flock public surveillance to online data collection. 020
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 30/08/2026They literally booked their next cruise the second they could. I don't get it. 130
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 30/08/2026their staterooms for two hours a day and it's by deck. Little did we know what was coming.Post all of that the cruise line took care of everyone. Once they docked (finally in Cambodia) they arranged all travel back home, fully refunded the cruise, and gave everyone vouchers equal to their refund /2 120
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 30/08/2026My co-worker's wife was stuck on a cruise in SE Asia in Feb. 2020. We would hang out after work on Fridays and he would update us on what was going on.The first Friday in March (right before the shutdown) his report was "They are only serving drinks for one hour a day now and they can only leave /1 120
mjwaite @mindymon.bsky.social · 29/08/2026People like this absolutely fascinate me. On TV 5 months out of the year in a prime time slot. Everyone sees you, a bunch of people are paid to make you look smart. Dream job, TBH. Then you just bend over and debase yourself for a pants-shitting narcissist. Like what are we doing here? 000
