Thinking that undocumented (inherently illegals) will be spared to continue providing cheap labour, ignores the impending AI revolution impact. Millions of jobs will be lost. The menial jobs currently being done by undocumented labour, will soon be done by legal citizens who have lost their jobs to AI. The Ministry of DOGE coin apparatus will soon be in place to implement this at national scale. The leopards are going to eat the faces of 99% of us.

National Intelligence! Oxymoron shenanigans, I've called it.

I really want to love Inkscape and use it as my default svg tool. But as a very occasional user, am perplexed by the icon menu system. Is there a way to change the UI to display long name toolbars and replace all the icons? I've tried and failed a number of times. Thanks in advance for any help.

My wife is a doctor, and dragged me to her proctologist friend for inspection. Midway through, my wife waltzed in, and they had a lovely chat about their CEO's BBQ the previous weekend, all the while he was wrist deep in. On the journey home, i requested that next time, one intrusion is the most i can manage at any one time. She considered me an antisocial whinger. Medical people are really weird.

As someone heading into retirement, after a long career in corporate and governmental stuff, my advice to the young man is to take the money. 250k will put a roof over his head for life, and the humiliation will be far less than the grinding, soul destroying, principle compromising reality of being a suit. If someone wants to pay you good money to look at your cock, they've got the problem, not you, take their money!

There's this fella that owns a golf course in Scotland. Just recently he was one inch away from being available. People say he'd be the best cadaver. I think he's the best candidate for it.

 

“There are still so many things we don’t know about [a milky sea] beyond that it must be caused by bacteria,” says Steven Haddock, a marine biologist at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in Moss Landing, Calif., who collaborates with Hudson on milky seas research. “What are the substrates that fuel the growth of these massive numbers of bacteria, and what are the environmental factors that keep them from getting diluted into the water column?”

Thank you. I increasingly appreciate what you and the other mods do.

some years back I was the 'Head' of systems stuff at a national telco that provided the national telco infra. Part of my job was to manage the national systems upgrades. I had the stop/go decision to deploy, and indeed pushed the 'enter' button to do it. I was a complete PowerPoint Manager and had no clue what I was doing, it was total Accidental Empires, and I should not have been there. Luckily I got away with it for a few years. It was horrifically stressful and not the way to mitigate national risk. I feel for the CrowdStrike engineers. I wonder if the latest embargo on Russian oil sales is in anyway connected?

I'm hoping that's half pig, half male chicken
