I can’t express in words just how much i despise LexisNexis. The English language lacks the expressiveness and nuance necessary.
This dogshit organization knows everything about me. Every purchase I make; every account I have; any legal proceeding of any kind i’m involved in; every address or phone number i’ve ever had… the level of data mining, hoarding, and sale is absolutely dystopian. I can’t opt out. I can’t tell them to delete it. I can’t ask for a copy of it.
Its the modern corporate equivalent of the schoolyard tattle tale, running to the teacher any time somebody farts.
It gets when worse when states use the service to host their code of laws. Here in TN, the official version of the Tennessee Code Annotated, the official state law set, is on lexisnexis and i can’t read it without a crazy expensive subscription. Laws I am subject to i can’t read in the form they’re enforced from.
How fucking absurd is that?
I had a similar thought a while back. I got into making pens. There’s a bit of a learning curve and some equipment necessary to get started, but once you get the hang of it, you can turn $20 of materials into $100+, and people with money to blow go nuts for them. I sold 3 pens for $300 to one person not so long ago.
Biggest thing you’ll need is a lathe. I got a Wen lathe on amazon for like $150. Get some carbide turning tools for like $40 and you’re mostly set.
That’s because musk is a dumb narcissistic cocky asshole.
Man. That’s the control you give to your little brother because you don’t want him to get the good control all sticky.
I feel personally attacked.
Hopping a plane at 6:15 in the morning bound for Jamaica for a week 😄
That’s wonderful until you have a client asking why their pre-alpha demo that you forgot they had access to just called them a fuckwit.
Don’t ask me how I know that one :D
I got a homie that’s bi and absolutely obsessed with possums. He 100% needs this on a tshirt.
