A coworker of mine lives in Hoboken and grew up there. He speaks very highly of living in such a walkable city.

I am an AV tech and we use a mouse jiggler script to prevent computers from going into an inactive state for presentations during events at my company. The script doesn't need to be installed, you just open the file by double clicking.

I am well aware of this overlap and it doesn't come as a surprise. I perhaps wish more of these creators acknowledged the military industrial complex and addressed what it means for their content and for the world of engineering.

I also had this uneasy feeling watching the video. It certainly felt a bit like a cog in the military industrial machine. While the actual content of the video wasn't exactly bad in my opinion, I don't know how I feel about pitching anti-terror or war machines to children through the lens of, "Engineering is cool!" That said, there are many more examples of that pitch out in the world in other forms. I do think Mark could be more careful especially when he is directly promoting a company in the defense industry.

You divided backwards. It should be land divided by population. 5.34m / 8b = 0.0006675 miles^2 per person.

2021 had GME meme stonks and was the start of NFTs. Also COVID vax started coming out.

Who could have ever guessed audiences would start getting disinterested in these movies? 😱

I have seen some truly terrible takes elsewhere online from New Yorkers who think this is another poor people tax. This is the opposite of a poor people tax. I don't know where that idea is coming from, but it sounds like a Fox News and New York Post talking point.

I also have a vested interest in furthering the socialist policies in the US. I would very much like to stay here since my life, my family, my friends, etc are all here. I just want this country to improve in ways I only see possible through socialism and moving from an individualist culture to a collectivist one.

I am thinking about building a PC oriented towards music production. My current desktop is 10 years old this month and is due to be replaced. Had been considering a Mac Studio but I am having second thoughts given the significant price difference and Apple's expensive storage upgrades.

I use Ableton Live 10 for my DAW. I have a Scarlett 4i4 audio interface, so no need to add any sound card to the build.

Going for a microATX build to save on physical space. Will also likely add another case fan somewhere. No Windows 11 license listed but I intend to get one. GPU is more for any light video editing or Photoshop I might do, not planning to do much of any gaming.

Any suggestions for improvement on this part list or any thoughts in general?

I think 7 months of outlier data is hard to use as a basis for a prediction.
