Is there an economist or other smart-ish person who has commented on what an actual exodus of 1m residents would do to housing prices there? I’m curious
Bold of you to assume they ever plan on leaving. He’s already handing out Trump 2028 hats and Bannon is just doing media interviews telling everyone he isn’t leaving.
You don’t tear down an entire wing from one of the most (symbolically) important buildings in the country just to throw parties for a couple years and then leave.
We have a bunch around Chicago too. There are two zones around where I live that have them, and in both places people absolutely do slow down now. There might be a catch-22 for the city in terms of on-going revenue though—once people learn to slow down in those areas, I would imagine ticket revenue from those cameras drop. But saving lives is never a bad outcome.
I’ve seen headlines where some CEO (usually in tech) had the self-awareness to tell their workforce that AI is coming for everyone’s jobs, “including mine.” So at least some of them know it.
It’s 2025, is there even a browser that doesn’t reopen your tabs by default? Who are the criminals building those?
Keeping a zillion tabs open is a resource strain on classic computers. If people are up for it, they could explore saving tabs to stuff like task apps or bookmark services.
Whoa whoa whoa with “they” here. It was like a couple hundred intrepid and possibly more brave than smart swimmers. The rest of us Chicagoans were perfectly fine watching them be (wet) guinea pigs.
I don’t watch Kimmel. Nothing particularly against him I’m just not that into late night shows. But the real test here will be whether he’s been gagged from specific topics and people.
I’ve never seen this poster before but I like it because it looks like they’re all flying through the internet together. Also is it weird I have strange Reboot vibes, that early CG animated series?
Good
Surprise twist: I don’t and won’t rely on it for jack shit

This was one of the fundamental experiences of whiplash that shot me straight out of the Christian community. Giant pile of child-fucking hypocrites.

Sure why not
What a tragical
I’m going to double down on the politics and out myself as a pineapple and anchovies grifter—I don’t like either on pizza. Mwahaha
More politics? Alright: My favorite pizza has anchovies and pineapple
Which is literally why I mentioned there is a real test here.

This is great to see. In recent years they’ve created so much wonderful public space around and now in the river.
Ok Elon
