😂 Ah, the #eMachines saga—where tech nostalgia meets marketing irony! Who knew a sticker could promise immortality on computers that aged faster than bananas? 🖥️🍌 Let's all pretend for a moment that "never obsolete" wasn't just a pipe dream for those 2000s #paperweights. 🥴

This #SpaceX Situation: Not Good!
by Jason Koebler, Feb 5, 2026
Excerpt: "There are many reasons that 'AI data centers in space' may be a pipe dream and may not happen, but what he is proposing is a magnitude of #SpaceJunk that no other company could plausibly promise to launch. Data centers or not, SpaceX is now dominating #LowEarthOrbit in a way no other company or country has. While Musk has been gutting the federal government, interfering in #elections, allowing people to generate #CSAM, engaging in white supremacy, planning trips to #EpsteinsIsland, implanting #chips into people’s brains, siphoning off taxpayer money to build ridiculous tunnels, giving his sperm to whoever will take it, turning his cars into experimental robot taxis, and pretending to build #HumanoidRobots, #SpaceX has somewhat (?) quietly #colonized and dominated low earth orbit.
"Musk has taken this space for his own use, concerns about #LightPollution, satellite collisions, and telecom #monopolies be damned. This has always been concerning, but explicitly intertwining the aspirations and fate of SpaceX with Musk’s CSAM generating social media website, his #AIBullshitMachines, and his right wing political project is horrifying and monopolistic. What happens next, I have no idea."

@Twocrows Thank you, but put into context, an ethically sustainable morality must appear to be a pipe dream to many. And to the oligarchs, plutocrats, despots and theocrats totally terrifying: ‘BlackRock is a “modern day Dutch East India Company” say activists’ https://peoplesdispatch.org/2023/08/15/blackrock-is-a-modern-day-dutch-east-india-company-say-activists/ #EthicallySustainableMorality

The making or breaking of the new #NDP may be how they react to the government's plan to hitch our #technology future to the #environmentally #evil and potentially economically disastrous #AI pipe dream.

@drahardja Are you speaking of #DiaperDon.🤔
Another impeachment with the #Repubs in control of #Congress will NEVER happen &, even when the #Dems were in control of the #House, they couldn't get the job done.☹️
So, it's just a pipe dream to think that you can get the #ShortFingeredVulgarian impeached & convicted of anything. 🤷♂️
Like #Reagan, the #OrangeMan appears to be a #TeflonPresident. 🤦♂️

Today, I run the Copenhagen Marathon (#Cph42). I've looked forward to this since September.
My goal: to cross the starting line
My hope: to enjoy the race and finish
My pipe dream: to beat my personal record (4:38:25)I think a new PR is realistic, but all bets are off for the last 10k... I don't fear the marathon, but I do respect it.
I'm runner no. 1624. You can follow along through https://copenhagenmarathon.dk/en/ or the app.

"Patriarch of #Bulgaria: The #OrthodoxChurch is growing..."
#AlternativeFacts have arrived in the #Orthodox #Church as well:
Whereas #Christian churches in Western #Europe are very much aware of the droves of people leaving the churches, the #Bulgarian Patriarch believes in a pipe dream. The #Bulgarian population has been dwindling since 1989 and the #Russian one is projected to crash in the decades to come.

🚀 Ah, #Dijkstra, once again reminding us that computers are just too dumb to understand our witty banter. 🤖💬 Apparently, expecting machines to "think" was just another pipe dream for those who find #programming syntax tedious and reality even more so. #Logic and precision? Who needs 'em when you can just argue with a compiler about semantics? 😂

The Encinal High School drama department was decimated following a pandemic and the retirement of its director. Kelly Rogers Flynt tells the remarkable story of four students who coaxed the program back to life. Today they celebrate the production of 'Mamma Mia,' once a pipe dream, now on stage. https://alamedapost.com/features/arts/spotlight-on-mamma-mia-and-encinal-high-school-drama/

Great article on #UBI from Big Issue, Manchester, UK:
"How #ChatGPT and #AI changed the #conversation on universal basic income"
"The idea of a basic income has gone from a pipe dream to being considered ‘inevitable’ and the advent of artificial intelligence has had a huge role to play, writes UBI Lab Manchester’s Alison Hawdale"
What do you think?

I liked the editorial by @ufried on AI in the new #softwarewerker from #codecentric. Even though the whole issue is on something generative that piece was kinda reluctant wrt enthusiasm and touching some more pressuring concerns than just the pipe dream of AGI and in general “just more tech”. Well done.

A reminder during #PrideMonth2023 - Evangelical Christofascists still conspire to strip us of our rights, #GunControl in America is a pipe dream now that firearms have proliferated like rabbits, & #LGBTplus people should arm and defend themselves from harm with lethal force.

"CNN’s new management came along at a time of establishment confusion over whether the old political center would return after Trump. America’s business establishment — including Warner Bros. Discovery billionaire John Malone — hoped it would. But that proved a pipe dream. The division between authoritarianism and democracy is now too deep. If anyone had any doubts, CNN’s Trump town hall should have erased them."

How did I do with what I set out to do?
My goal: cross the starting line + enjoy it ✅
My hope: finish ✅
My pipe-dream: finish in 4:15 or less (PR: 4:38:25) ❌Two out of three ain't bad. It is, after all, only the first two that really matter.
I gave all I had and then a lot (if in doubt, check the before and after pictures), and I am very, very happy with finishing, with the achievement, and with the result.

Two companies, one of which has promised autonomous cars since 2018 & the other failing at them completely launch a project depending on fleets of flawless autonomous vehicles & it's treated as if it's something other than another SV pipe dream?
Even trying to hold a flippant tone, how is #Gizmodo doing anything but #critihype here?

New Year's wish? Still thinking what my 1st hope would be for all. Not a pipe-dream, but something realistic? So far I believe it would be for a boring and steady 2023, devoid of upheaval & new crisis. A chance to rebuild. A chance to gain some equilibrium, personally, professionally, nationally. I can't even remember when this was last true for most--if it ever was. But for all of us, I do mostly wish we'd have reason to feel much more steady in our personal worlds.

'‘Grossly irresponsible’: #UK hands out 24 new #NorthSeaOil and #gas licences
The move to grant 17 companies the right to drill for #FossilFuels is ‘a pipe dream’ that will do little for #EnergySecurity, say #environmentalists

Update: #CphHalf done!
Goal: cross the starting line and have fun ✅
Hope: finish in less than 2hrs ✅
Pipe dream: beat my personal record ❌My official time is 1:58:09. I am more than happy with that - especially considering the weather (warmer than expected) and the number of people, which at times exceeded the actually capacity of the road.

Data democratization, the idea of enabling entire teams and departments to use data for better decision-making, is currently a pipe dream for most executives. Only 32% of available data is being utilized, leaving the remaining 68% untapped.
