Democrats serve corporations. Corporations value stability and laws that benefit them. Democrats want to deliver for them and keep things stable while maximizing corporate donations.

Maga Republicans serve the oligarchs. They want to be able to run scams and prop up a new ruling class. They are doing chaotic things to maximize short term profits for themselves while consuming natural resources as quickly as possible.

They both serve aipac with their seemingly unlimited amount of money.

The root of all evil n politics is money, and also it is what keeps the political machine running.

What, specifically, would you like us to do about it? Talk to our corrupt representatives in Congress? Have a general strike and risk the well-being of our families?

The US might be a giant military base for Israel at this point.

It might start a small controlled fire.

I’d like to see it, but I think it’ll be just fine on my TV at home. It’ll probably be streaming in no time.

I love the theater experience, but it’s too expensive right now.

On October 18, 1999, Hammer died in Long Beach from lung cancer at the age of 69

Democrats slam new Trump corruption. We’ll be forming a commission later to consider writing a scathing letter; fingers crossed.

Sigh. I still enjoy my Plex pass that I bought for < $100 but this is another sign to bail on them. I don’t particularly like them trying to further monetize my collection.

I do like the ease of sharing with friends and it does generally just work. But this is bad.

Are the cabinets level? This whole kitchen looks off.

Caulking around the large cracks and some matching paint would make it look much better.

If this was professionally done I’d call them back and have them fix it. Seems like craigslist level workmanship.

No.

It really depends on who defines what hate speech is.

Is questioning the Zionist genocide hate speech? Is being an outspoken socialist hate speech against capitalists? Is stating you want to separate church and state hateful against Christians? Is supporting Palestine hate speech in the UK?

I’m a fan of free speech. Unless it is literally inciting violence or panic.

It’s fucked up innocent people holding Palestine action signs are being arrested in the UK. Attacking free speech is what leads to situations like that.

I have a blu-ray drive that got a lot of action at one point backing up movies. Now it just sits there sad and lifeless. This might be my inspiration to get that guy back in action.

It feels like relying on GPS while driving around. If you know the roads well and just want some help with live traffic or somewhere you haven’t been before, it’s a decent tool.

If you rely on it because you don’t want to think and just want to press the easy button, you’re going to have a bad time sooner or later.

Back to software, I think there are a lot of people introducing concepts they don’t understand or can’t maintain (either from poor quality slop or it is just too advanced for their current level of understanding). You can do a few turns like this, until you’re stuck burning tokens in a loop without moving forward in a meaningful way.

I try to avoid taking the easy route myself unless I’ve burnt too much time stuck on some small detail. Ultimately I feel it is super important to understand what you are delivering. Whether it is writing it yourself, copying a stack overflow post, or using an LLM. Once you commit and push to prod you’ve got to deal with that crap.

Trump wanted to give 10+ mil taxpayer money to a crony. Wouldn’t be surprised if he gets a little taste himself, or gets some work comped on his properties. There is also probably an aspect of reminding people he existed years down the road when he’s dead, because he is a narcissist.

It certainly isn’t because it is a good idea.

I tried it briefly, but it didn’t feel as snappy as mint, wasn’t necessarily beautiful, and I can install drivers.

You’re telling me If I have one item and give it away, in some cultures I’d have something other than no items? I’m not being sarcastic, that kind of blows my mind if true.

and God later sent a plague upon the people for their idolatry.

How is Anthony going to support his 19 year old girlfriend after he’s passed on from old age?

Throwing a <$1.00 bag of pretzels at you for a $1000+ ticket seems like the least they could do. They at one point served actual meals. They are turning it into an expensive bus ride in the air.

I wonder if future generations of toasters will require age verification since they are running an OS that can presumably get online? I hate it here, but luckily I have an analog toaster I intend to keep.

Maybe in the future during rolling blackouts caused by ai they’ll only permit a light toasting.
