Christ, Hakeem Jeffries is useless. "What's the point of bringing articles of impeachment against Hegseth if Republicans won't advance them?" It's about the messaging. It's about putting representatives on record. It's about doing something, fucking ANYTHING, about these illegal strikes.

What frustrates the hell out of me is that these warning flags are being raised in opinion sections and not in main articles in news outlets. It also frustrates me that local news outlets, where a vast majority of people throughout America still get their news, has not been covering this at all.

I got my Framework 13 in February 2022 and I love it. I'll end up getting the AMD mainboard when it becomes more widely available, then take my old mainboard and RAM, put them in an enclosure, and make that my new NAS. Then my current NAS, which is just a Raspberry Pi, I'll turn that into a PiHole.

Wow I can't seem to figure out why Democrats keep losing elections

Except he's already been prosecuted and found guilty. This is the sentencing. Now the question is will New York state sentence and imprison him before he takes office.

The thing that drives me nuts about the lab leak theory is that it absolutely should be investigated as a possible avenue for COVID's origin, but not because of some nefarious conspiracy theory. It should be investigated to determine whether or not there was a protocol breach, or perhaps an oversight in lab procedures, that could point to the need for greater safety in infectious disease labs. Remember, Wuhan, like all infectious disease labs, follows the same protocols as most other similar labs, including those in the United States. If there are lapses in safety and/or oversight, everyone should know and take the appropriate steps to mitigate that.

What in the actual fuck

What about Biden is bad exactly? Yeah, he's old. Yeah, he has the exact same position on Israel as literally every US president since its inception. But what about Biden makes him not "good" in your eyes?

I support Biden not because he's an anti-Trump, but because he's a genuinely good man who gets things done. He knows how to work the system and gets results.

“AI Tools” describes both the product and the people who use them.

*until a Democrat is elected

I have to say, I'm pleasantly surprised by this ruling. The way the court was leaning, I was fully expecting them to uphold the Independent State Legislature theory. And I'm extremely glad they rejected it, as it would have opened the door for MAGA-leaning state legislatures to unilaterally overturn their states' election results, which is utterly terrifying.

Assuming you're not American and are unfamiliar with our bicameral legislature: Mitch McConnell is a Republican senator from Kentucky who served as the Senate Majority Leader when Republicans held a majority in the Senate. Mike Johnson, on the other hand, is a Republican representative in the House of Representatives--the other half of Congress--who was elected to the position of Speaker by a majority of House Republicans. The Speaker is second in line to the Presidency and actually be held by anyone. However, at no time has Mitch McConnell been Speaker of the House.

If you are American: Jesus Christ go back to civics class.

Of course it was deliberate: Israel wouldn’t have been involved unless it was able to bomb children.

'Tis a mighty fine pueblo fort, but 'tis no WWII bomb shelter, English.

What you mean? HAFSBEVCZ is a totally established, reputable brand.

This was literally me in the first episode seeing the E-wings, having not realized that's what they were in the initial trailers. My wife, who's a Star Wars fan but never really got into the old EU like I did, didn't understand my enthusiasm.

I think Halo is a pretty cool guy. Eh kills aleins and doesnt afraid of anything.

Cars. Some people like to talk about how sturdy cars used to be, but with all of the advancements in safety, if I were in a head-on collision between an old Plymouth and a Toyota Prius, I'd much rather be in the Prius.

I saw some small talk about it, and it really just boiled down to domain verification is great for more tech savvy folks, but trying to get larger accounts (think politicians, celebrities, etc) is a lot harder. Having a visual check, using tools within the app or site, is a lot easier.

And personally I like the idea of verification checks as long as it remains a simple means to do just that: verify the owner of the account. Morons like Musk and his ilk always thought it was a clout thing, and for a small minority that was probably the case, but by and large before he ruined it, it was great.
