"I’d like to ask you to speak with your student about the dangers of pretending to have a weapon on a school campus."
Or... now hear me out... OR the students flood the AI with false data rendering it useless.
You need to Planet of the Apes that...
Humans left Earth in the present day and through some wibbley wobbley timey wimey stuff end up flung into the future and don't realize it.
They aren't aliens discovering the husk of Earth, they're us.
Bonus if some of the angry ghosts are friends/family of some of the crew members.
I remember when W.'s administration got caught with theirs, it was something like 900 lies across the entire administration and we yelled about that! Bush, Cheney, Rice, Rummy, Powell, the lot of them added up to 900.

Trump: "Hold my Diet Coke:"
This is like if James Herriott made up All Creatures Great and Small. This is devastating!
That's what I was afraid of when he announced a surprise speech...
I think the one accurate statement was "People can't believe what's going on!"
Yes, well that's true!
He seems to get enough nappy naps.
Remember when the complaint was "Who do you want answering the phone at 3 AM?"
Who could have predicted back then that 3 PM would be the real problem?
AI is a fad and when it collapses, it's going to do more damage than any percieved good it's had to date.
And more significantly, the Switch 2 is for kids. There's no sizable youth market for the Steam Deck.
But out of all the handheld PCs, the Steam Deck is #1, so that should give you some idea about the sales on the others. 😉
I was looking at getting a Switch 2 MicroSD card for a gift and shit's bonkers, yo.
I get they changed the standard for the Switch 2, but $300 for 1TB?
I say this as someone who loves their Steam Deck... Steam Deck sales are insignificant compared to consoles.
6 million in 3 years:
The Switch 2 has sold over 10 million, June to September. 3 months. There has been another 3 months since then.

When we bought this lovely mid-century modern house a few years ago, my only real complaint was "I hate that fucking wall!"
Short term solution was to bury it behind bookshelves, but it's still there... LURKING. It irks me just knowing it's still there, that half-assed wainscoting made of plywood strips and blue paint.
At a minimum, my plan is to pull the plywood off and re-paint before putting the bookracks back, but there has to be something nicer.
Maybe something like this above the bookracks where the wall is exposed? I dunno. I'm open to ideas.
I had been talking with my wife about long term organizational plans... The bookshelves in the library are 30 year old, bending, crappy plywood that need to be replaced, and my plan was:
-
Clean out the back bedroom.
-
Get new bookshelves for the library that are taller, wider, and will add over 200 linear inches of shelf space.
Current library:
-
Figure out how many of the old bookshelves can be moved into the back bedroom (four! four bookshelves! Ah ha ha! Maybe 5 if I get super lucky.)
-
Put the empties in the back bedroom for more DVD storage, then fix the wall they sit in front of because I hate that wall treatment (long story).
Ugly ass-wall:
(It was like that when we bought the house, loved the house, HATED that wall. I need to pull down the plywood slats and re-paint to get rid their janky ass-wainscoting.)
- Put together the new racks and re-assemble the library.
All told, a lot of work. My plan was to do all this a little at a time over a period of months.
WELL... Our kid asked my wife what he should get for Christmas.
Turns out... 5 new bookshelves show up TOMORROW.
I can't be mad... it's a gift. But holy hell... I wasn't ready to start the project TOMORROW.

Unfortunately, there's no process for that. Single judges can be removed via impeachment, but being a partisan hack is not a high crime.
Similarly, nothing can happen with Conservatives controlling the House and Senate.
