Did you know that if you mix 45 layers of Kevlar, 30 layers of 3000 grit silicon carbide sandpaper, a gallon of epoxy resin, and a few cups of graphene you can create a bullet resistant composite that can defeat at least .38 Special rounds?
The more you know 🌈

In an attempt "to deflect attention away from the Jeffrey Epstein case" Trump plans "to announce he will reopen Alcatraz as a federal prison."
Rep. Nancy Pelosi wrote: "With stiff competition, the planned announcement to reopen Alcatraz as a federal penitentiary is the Trump Administration’s stupidest initiative yet":

Mind-bogglingly stupid movie cameo idea.
Whatever the movie is, have some nutter walking around with the traditional "The End is Nigh" sign.
Turns up *everywhere*, never interacts, just in the background.
Movie finally wraps, and we cut to Bill Nighy or Bill Nye, who simply says "The End."
Optional in-credit voiceover of the main characters discussing how the nutter was right, but could not spell.

A TV reality show like Pimp My Ride but it's called Blur My Background. People who aren't capable of clicking the "Blur My Background" option in Zoom are visited by zany, somewhat dramatic experts who spend a day and $50,000 to physically blur the space behind the person on Zoom calls. They might paint the person's stuff, set up elaborate diffusion lenses on tripods, place translucent film in strategic locations, or maybe just dab microdoses of vaseline on the person's webcam.
Pretty sure this would be a huge hit.

Stupid idea: how about we turned one of the pipelines of pumped-storage hydroelectric plant into a waterslide?

OK, hear me out. We keep detonating atomic bombs right next to the earth nudging it further and further from the sun until the climate cools.

Ok #toyota in these days of spam-everything from all directions, it is SO NOT COOL to be constantly calling my cell from some random phone number to leave me apparently official voice mails that my car is due for service. Do you not get why that's not a good idea? #BadBusiness #StupidIdeas #stopCallingMe

#security #shellScripts #StupidIdeas I see a lot of newer "installers" for various projects like Rust, Homebrew, Oh-my-zsh, and more, asking people simply run a shell script from the internet. And I'm not thrilled with this; I know packages have issues too. However, a shell script seems like a prime target for malware. Can we please return to more sensible installers? PLEASE? Are we just going to default to the most insecure way of delivering software? When did this become "Normal"...

The thesis of #Bitcoin was to avoid the regulated financial institutions. When you have to pay money, you call your banker. When you have to pay a LOT of money, you call your lawyer.
I don’t make the rules 🤷🏻♂️
