Stinky strikes deal with Putin to get diesel in sharp reversal of US policy weeks before midterms Once again, Putin's best investment pays off. If stinky weren't President, he should be on trial for treason.

Yes, the former. Public executions were stopped for multiple reasons, and it's just tacky now to start them up again without good reason. As for the death sentence, my view has become that spending the rest of your life in jail is at least as bad as execution, if not worse. Either way you're removed as a threat to the public.

One cool aspect of lava tunnels on the Moon is the low gravity, which allows the tunnels to be up to a kilometer across without collapsing. You can fit a lot in there.

Fort Hood attacker's execution by firing squad will be livestreamed, Pentagon says Yep. No longer tactful, now just tacky. Idiocracy, here we come...

White House aide: Trump did not call for attacks on US cities but explained how he’s preventing them Uh huh. His quote: My simpler explanation is that his cray-cray is leaking again. The pots are all cracked. The cheese done slipped off his cracker. He's half a bubble off a plumb.

His eldest son Flávio Bolsonaro won the first round, not Jair. Although they seem cut from the same cloth.

A little Halloween-themed rock...

Apparently dogs can tolerate it better than humans, so the side effects were relatively mild. I was surprised by that. It needed some hormone treatments and ate like a, well, dog, but otherwise was all right. It's kind of expensive though.

Our happy little basset developed lymphoma early this year, but after several wounds of chemotherapy he seems to be in remission. So, good news. Maybe not for the squirrels though.

I don't think that's a true assumption. If greed drove you to that point, it doesn't just vanish. The wealth is relative to other gazillionaires, and the greed makes you want to have more than all of those.

How much are two human years in AI years? 20? Ah well.

Well, in answer to the question of "which group is least likely to carefully monitor AI safety risks", I give you... Here’s how tech leaders will self-police AI safety under Trump’s deal Because, yeah, they're gazillionaires so greed is not an issue. Uh huh.

Yes, I saw the first three seasons on the old Freevee streaming channel, which is now sadly merged back into Prime. The portrayal of the superheroes is probably more plausible than the cartoon versions. I.e. all the human flaws, combined with heavily abused superpowers. I suppose we may start to see that with cybernetic constructs.

Stinky Ads During Football Broadcasts Spark Backlash I got to sit through that piece of wacko trash during a match last Sunday. It was weirdly out of place, like tuning into some alternate dystopian propaganda. No thanks.

Space-X super heavy launch to orbit.

I went to see Spiderman: Brand New Day on its last day in the local theater. It was mostly a fun romp that relied on nostalgia and f/x. However, I don't recall any memorable lines and only a few notable scenes. The trailer at the very end suggested a location for the next spidie movie. It was enjoyable enough that I'll rewatch it again some time in the future. What I am finding these days is that the theaters play their movies at such a high volume that they become uncomfortable, especially during the previews of coming attractions. I actually enjoy watching them at home more where I can turn the noise down. Maybe I should take ear plugs?

Today in ludicrous mode: Trump hails deep friendship with Xi as China’s leader urges ‘healthy’ competition between 2 powers 😆 Looks like control of rare earths has paid off for China.

You could always Google "best vehicles for drivers with back pain"...

I wonder if they will bother producing them? They are costly, so it might be more cost-effective for Ukraine to just keep mass producing drones to take down the Russian economy instead of trying to intercept inbound missiles.

Probably not, but if you stick around for long enough presumably you'd become culturalized. Plus the lack of Sun could turn the skin somewhat paler.

Yep, it's already being challenged. CNN, MS NOW and Politico file court challenge to Trump's press ban It's pretty weenie of this administration not to be able to handle criticism. Biden shines by comparison.

Is it weird for an immortal though? If you life forever then you can have as many backgrounds as you want.

NASA spacecraft discovers a huge new crater on the moon Cool, a fresh ray system. Is that cryptomare I see in the crater center?
