It’s lack of direct evidence. Trump operates like a mafia boss. No paper trail, always use euphemisms for direct action, use intermediaries for voice communication. That’s why everyone around him got caught and prosecuted, but he didn’t. The entire case would be hearsay interpretations. Federal guidelines wouldn’t let a prosecutor take that to trial. Usually in that case they go for intimidation to get a confession, which doesn’t work on a megalomaniac narcissist.
If he’s using AI scraping, we should set up bots that invent other Trump family members as orangutans. Also label all cat and dog photos as the opposite. All insect pictures labeled as republican or conservative.
Nothing but anecdotal, but it kinda looks like Bluesky is becoming a thing. Couple that with a lot of people taking a step back from the world right now.
The green party only exists because the GOP keeps giving them money. The only time anyone ever hears a damn word out of them, is when they’re showing up to split the Dem vote for the GOP.
Down right idiotic. I’m all for some better gun control, but this is just a stupid idea.
If Texas wants to put a bounty on women, we should be able to put a bounty on guns. It’d be a lot more effective too.
Get a deer chaser sprinkler. They’re cheap and easy to set up.
I heard Hawaii, but that could be completely wrong.
I mean, i haven’t actually been to Japan myself, but I’ve heard some things…
Well yeah I’m gonna let him out hustle me. That bastards on crack.
The best restaurants in the world are in London. Of course they don’t serve English food. The Brits just knew to bring the best stuff home.
Yeah, but if everyone hadn’t played the game, that book would cost a thousand dollars.
So the headline just says physical edition, not PC or anything. Which had me thinking they printed out a book with all the maps and NPC stats and such as an adventure module. Obviously not true, but maybe it should be?
Look at you with your color vision being all elitist. Some of us old bastards don’t see them pretty rainbows so much any more.
It turns out the specialized medical needs are kind of special, and they fly people to where there are facilities when they’re needed. And only affects a special portion of the population. For everyone else it doesn’t matter.
For fuck sake people crossed the entire US in a god damn wagon while risking being shot at by random tribes and eaten by bears. What’s stopping people now is that they can’t afford food or a place to park the damn wagon without getting harassed by the cops.
Moving to more rural areas is what causes rural areas to build hospitals, and doctors to open clinics and offices. There are plenty of jobs everywhere that just involve sitting on your ass in front of a screen, or standing behind a counter. Even in rural areas.
Growth doesn’t just happen. People have to go places and build. UBI would make that process a shit ton easier.
They’re playing on the latent puritanism in US culture. The only reason it’s done is because it pushes peoples buttons and draws interest. The other options are what you see over seas, where either free speech is harshly curtailed, or people get over it, and advertisers stop because it doesn’t cause concerned citizens to lose their shit any more.
I knew it was water, the actual name of it though I had zero recollection.
This is why I try to use authoritarian -ism when I’m not being lazy. The reality is it’s nothing to do with left or right, it’s about control.
I dunno, why would anyone be frustrated by having everything labeled with an incomprehensible acronym and an entirely unique and often vague directory structure with a stringent yet useless file level security?
Linux is amazing for it’s ability to be customized. That comes with a cost in on ramping new users. Hell, I’m an old user, and what I know is half useless because it’s so old. The end result is that I use linux to run a raspberry pi that shares out instrument data. And that’s all it does. It’s not a desktop, it’s a tool that does a thing. It does that one thing reasonably well, and I don’t have to screw with it. Because I never update it, never connect it to the internet, never install new things. Until I make a new one to do a new thing.
Honestly I have no idea why anyone would want a linux desktop for daily use. It’s nice to have an environment to set up the device for what it’s going to be doing. But beyond that, it’s usually not even going to have a monitor attached to it.
It’s not a policy question it’s a media question. The right started taking over news media the day Nixon resigned. Repealing the Fairness doctrine, ending League of Women voters debates, propping up Fox news, and Sinclair media buying out all the local stations. That’s the decades long community goal they’ve been running. The left needs to understand it, and how to fight it, because MSNBC isn’t doing it.
