I regularly visit the Texas coast, and I don’t think I’ve ever said the “of Mexico” part out loud in a conversation ever. (Everyone just says “The Gulf”. But now I absolutely will. Especially when I’m calling around for quotes on a deep sea charter.
It’s so much worse than cockroaches.
Feel bad for the poor bastards stuck there on visas. Feel less bad about anyone looking around that can’t quit but can’t find another job. Would you hire someone who’s still working at Twitter? I probably wouldn’t even pull that resume for an interview.
He’s laundering money through it most likely
Might get more artists to move to Bluesky at least
You forgot the “.2”
A decent compromise might be to pick a short phrase she can remember, and make all her passwords that phrase+the name of the service.
Like her bank password would be “iloveop+bank”, her Netflix would be iloveop+netflix", etc.
My mom’s password manager is a pen and paper notebook. It’s not ideal, but it keeps me from having to reset everything every month, and she chooses slightly more complex passwords since she doesn’t have to remember them (even though she is slowly memorizing them)
Shoot for the FALGSC, fall amongst the CyberpunkDystopia.
War will be automated too. That’s going to be “fun” too. Not even Star Trek skipped that part.

Anduril means “Flame of the West”. So for a California based weapons manufacturer, it’s kinda perfect.
I’m not saying these are good people or anything, just that of all the tolkien-named business, Anduril is probably the best named one.
Sure. There’s not a lot of “bulk content” trash farms yet so it feels more real than even twitter did before the enXhittification.
Does it hurt when you need to stop talking enough to listen, or does the listening part never happen for you?
Ok better idea, claim that his name is an integral part of the business identity and sue him for his own name, then make AJ a character, like Bozo the clown.
Fuuuuuck I hope they hire Jones to parody himself. The irony might actually kill him.
This statement has strong Bilbo " I like less than half of you as well as you deserve" energy
(No hate, it just struck me as funny)
I tried to upvote you three times while reading your comment. The missing piece was the rise of “anti-woke” voices inside the company itself. Lots of crackpots with inflated egos started getting really vocal over the lockdowns when they didn’t have anyone staring them down in person for being fucking morons.
