I still find it strange that this is considered "late in the election cycle". We need legislation limiting campaign length to something reasonable.

15-year-old brother and sister's children

This sentence is a great argument for the Oxford comma.

Private prisons also saw a huge bump in stock prices. GEO Group is up a shocking 26% this morning and CoreCivic—once known as Corrections Corporation of America—is up 20%.

Wow. A lot of people know what's coming and don't give a damn.

I'm sorry but isn't this elementary school math?

I agree. Trump, the weird thing, is fucking cringe.

I'd like to take this opportunity to blame Citizens United and the lack of regulation on the advertising industry.

Social media companies seek greater engagement to increase their main source of revenue: advertising. Extremist opinions on topics like abortion receive greater engagement, so algorithms optimize accordingly.

I read over Biden's statement, and it makes sense to me. Hunter was singled out for political purposes. It would seem weird if Biden didn't issue the pardon.

I disagree. The online advertising industry needs to shrink, and we should probably break up the monopolies.

Look at this chart:

Growth of advertising correlates with enshittification.

Even Trump and Musk have kids - doesn't make either one less of a dirt bag.

“We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again – there is no place for hate in a democracy.

Trump is getting rid of that democracy problem

Just to clarify - DeepSeek censors its hosted service. Self-hosted models aren't affected.

Good clarification. I'm convinced we will end up bailing them out anyway. We should nationalize and operate as a public good if generative AI is that important to society.

This is embarrassing. Currency should never be an industry in the first place.

I sure wish my tax dollars could help people instead.

Just wait until you get these idiots:

This piqued my curiosity after witnessing recent issues in the Nixpkgs community, so I poked around Discourse for a few minutes.

Wow... Tim seems like one of the nicest folks on the face of the planet. I don't get it.

Did I miss something? It seems like they're shooting themselves in the foot here.

Were the mods upset about this community discussion after Karl was banned?

Yay I can't wait for my tax dollars (and probably SS) to buy useless crypto from rich idiots. If only we could put that money into high speed rail, healthcare, school lunches, ... Nah that stuff is clearly less important.

Just look at that word salad. I bet getting dressed is a real struggle for him

I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't want people to get the wrong idea. Voting in FPTP is not the same as approval.

We could have had Sanders... Arghh
