Trump finds no new lawyers in time for Mar-a-Lago documents arraignment
This is what happens when you say real lawyers don't take notes
And then refuse to pay your lawyers
And then lie to your lawyers so they sign false statements to the government

The DOJ Tried to Give Trump a Pass. He Wouldn’t Take It.
Oh yeah, I remember that atcth beginning of all that. The DOJ told Trump to give back all the documents he took with him. He actually lied to his lawyers to get them to dertify that he had given them all back.
Imo, that's a reasonable measure. While you or I wouldn't have any need to take a classified document home with us, both Pence and Biden had to give documents back from their home. I guess as executives, it happens.
Trump, though, is a trophy hoarder, so he refused to give them up.

Arizona Republicans try and fail to expel Democratic lawmaker over Bible prank
As a Christian, these legislators are committing idolatry. Scripture as a whole may be holy, but each book is just a book. God's going to be more insulted by being invoked for budgetary procedure than by a printout of text being sat on.

Do you trust FiveThirtyEight without Nate Silver?

That's not really accurate. The polls were going back and forth for over a month leading up to the election, and the FBI announce they were re-opening the case into Clinton's emails 3 days before voting day. The polls just didn't have the time to reflect that change.

I forget if it's one exchange or two, but there's a transcript where Trump tells someone:
Hey, check this out, but don't get too close, it's classified and you aren't cleared to see it ... You know, when I was president, I could have declassified this, but I didn't, and now I can't. That's pretty funny, right?
You just get everything in those two statements. Knowledge, intent, showing it to someone you know isn't cleared.
I also agree, though. We should restrict how people are allowed to interact with classified documents. They shouldn't have been in Pence or Biden's houses at all. It should be the kind of work no one takes home.

That would be pretty cool. A federated system could actually support more specialized communities. like if there was a dc-specific instance
but I'm also chronically overconfident

Migrate from Google / ChromeOS?
Mozilla Firefox is my main browser, I definitely like it more than Chrome. It supports adblocking, doesn't hog RAM, and doesn't track your activity.
But it goes beyond that. Firefox lets you open tabs and specific domains in "containers" which cookies and login info don't cross. By default, Facebook is separated into its own thing.

I recently read a review of 1990s pop aesthetics, and it was probably intentional for reasons that resonate with us again. In the 90s, with the advent of omnipresent computers, organic, amateurish handwriting became really popular, and I think that's what comic sans is good at looking like.

Hundreds of thousands celebrate LGBTQ+ community at DC Pride Parade
Woo! I was there! The parade was too corporate for my taste, but the evening down at the wharf was a good ending!

Probably lol; I found that they got you back to the main hub each time pretty easily, but going back out to the switch again required redoing the puzzle again

Why did Microsoft Build VSCode? Turns out, GitHub Copilot.

Haa been for decades iirc. Windows is free, but customization features are locked behind a license. I remember my dad's Windows XP being unlicensed, and the biggest issue was just a notification in the bottom corner.

Wasn't there a map? When you're in a dungeon, your map defaults to a map of the dungeon itself.

Rust Module System Encourages Poor Practices (Comparing to Go)
Ooh, an interesting read. I'm looking to get into a new language, and I've been looking at Rust. Would the best use then be to have many small crates? Maybe have a tool that creates the toml? Wouldn't that keep compile times low?
