I’ve spent the last 2 years pulling all of my cloud data. I’ve read too many stories at this point about people losing access to their stuff and with the way administration is going, that’ll only get worse.
The cloud is just someone else’s computer, after all.
Although nothing is confirmed, it’s worth mentioning that Ford filed a trademark with the USPTO last month under the name “Ranchero,” which the company promoted as “More than a Car, More than a Truck” in the ’60s and ’70s. Will the Ranchero make a comeback as an electric pickup with a coupe-like design? We will find out soon.
How is that a bad thing? Still looks like a good place for community meetups and is one less road. Gotta take the silver linings where you can. It’s not like it’s flooded all the time.
It’s about a physicist who is bicycling down a hill and a car is in his path. The driver turns to see him and hits his brakes in the last moment. He skids over the hood, mostly unharmed and begins to ponder this.
If the driver hadn’t had the single neuron in his brain fire and trigger him to look again, he wouldn’t have hit his brakes and he would have collided with the flat side of the car, likely killing him.
He applies this idea to quantum physics and realizes that this is happening with every decision made by any living creature at every waking moment, creating countless split possibilities for all moments in time.
The final scene is very striking, showing a car approach an intersection. The view splits to show the car turning both left and right. The camera splits multiple more times to show the concept that you can always choose any path at any moment. Some are just more likely than others.
It showed on IFC back in 2005 or so, and I’ve tracked down some limited information on it, but it was shot on 35mm and I’ve found no real leads on watching it anywhere.
Wow. This is some serious science fiction level stuff. This is an amazing development for a lot of people, I can imagine. They mention same-sex parents, but also, being able to have a biological kid for any reason of infertility is really awesome.
I’ve had plenty of success using it to build things like docker compose yamls and the like, but for anything functional, it does often take a few tries to get it right. I never use its raw for anything in production. Only as a leaping off point to structure things.
The first time I played through it, it didn’t really sink in. When I got to the ending where

I booted the game back up the next day, but just couldn’t bring myself to continue with my character. It felt like I finally got them out of that world. I didn’t pick it back up again for another month and started with a fresh character because of how hard it sunk in.
I’ll stick to my home server, thanks.
