I was a couple months off, but I wanted to let you know that bitcoin hit a new all time high.

That’s awesome. I’ve heard of some cities doing that, nice to see an example.

I had a shower thought the other day; what would the world be like if advertising didn’t exist?

No billboards or giant signs everywhere blocking our views. Content would be better because it wouldn’t be interrupted by commercials. But think of how much money is spent on advertising? Companies would have to invest that into other areas to be successful instead, such as cheaper and/or better quality products, or higher wages for their workers. Companies would have to work really hard to get a good reputation so their products could spread through word of mouth instead of using advertising to invade everyone’s space.

I’m sure there’s some downsides, but it sounds kind of amazing.

From 2006-2011 agents in Arizona stood down as straw purchasers illegally bought 2,000 guns at shops, intending to use the information to track trafficking patterns and arrest the kingpins. However, agents didn’t deliver the high-level arrests – and in the process, they lost track of hundreds of guns.

This is the shit I think of when I’m paying my taxes.

Or the cumbox. Or that kid who broke his arms. Or that dog, Colby I think? No wonder AI always wants to exterminate humanity in sci-fi.

Oh good, they caught him.

Well that’s a new one, didn’t expect any prophets or messiahs in 2024.

Well yeah, only half our politicians work for Putin, but 100% work for Netanyahu.

Interesting, maybe I’ll read the book. I’m trying to read more

I don’t know anything about Dune, does it have Magic (the Force)?

Is that true? I’m glad we’re investing in domestic chip production, but why in Phoenix?!?!
