Buyer Beware: despite adamant claims to the contrary, this allegedly "hand drawn" and "expert verified" popular book by Hungry Minds appears to in fact be just a bunch of AI slop, containing entirely made up or nonsensical bullshit passed off as fact.

Murrican laptop disposal 

Please, for the love of whatever deity you pray to, **DO NOT** shoot your laptop when you're done with it! You have no idea where the battery is, it's a huge hidden target you _will_ hit & set on fire, & lithium fires are no joke! It's not a matter of if but when it catches fire.

Adding insult to your gunshot injury, the data you're _trying_ to destroy is a tiny hidden target you will _miss!_

So congrats on starting a delayed fire that can be traced back to you.

We were on this path, but Chromebooks sucked the air out of the room

@earthshine I spent days wondering how anyone would even find this waste of paper, let alone decide to buy it, but lo and behold they're buying YouTube sponsorships, and a channel I sometimes watched until now sold a slot.

news re: Afroman vs cops

Well, the cops decided to fuck with him and his kids.

And then the cops *sued him,* claiming ~3.9 million dollars for pain and suffering. *When they started this shit.*

He just won.
