I cannot see a poll here. Obviously, I'm going with "not Hitler." That seems sane.

This feels like a "may be able to" situation. Once they've completed a flight from New York to London, I can get on board with the notion of them being able to fly from New York to London.

We didn't forget about it; we were silenced.

The sad thing is we lose, not them. We have some 35% of the country convinced that elections don't matter. That's tangentially a democracy problem, but good luck having a meaningful discussion about the the difference between a democracy and a republic.

Thank you. I've tried a lot to raise the floor, and each time, someone starts excavation.

That would be very much appreciated.

That's all well and good, but it comes at the expense of the user experience.

I honestly don't know what I'm asking for, either, which makes making sense difficult. Sometimes, all I can tell is "not this," which is not particularly useful, I realise.

I have treatment-resistant major depressive disorder. I can understand why this looks like doing nothing; hell, I just got off the phone with my former boss I met in detox who feels the same way.

My problem with mental-health services is they focus on turning you back into a good little bitch for the rich. I think you know that's not me.

I frankly haven't believed in my own government since 9/11. This is not about conspiracy theories; it's about the fact that I could drive into Canada in 2000 with a driver license. We obviously are the most imperial country in history (the irony is not lost on me, given how this all started).

But we started doing things like creating the Department of Homeland Security when the DoD covered that alongside ICE. I don't understand what it's like to think those were insufficient.

Also, I would encourage you to read my post history about this.

I don't often share this, but my father was regarded as Arizona's foremost adolescent-suicide expert. The issue is self-evident if you are aware of the quality of parenting you get in this situation. This is why I want to fix the world but can't fix myself.

This is going to be fun to watch. Eight percent is a Big Fucking Deal in a matter of days for a newspaper. I know of no precedent for what the LAT and WaPo have just done.

He emphatically said no to that movement. Dude seems to like the Constitution or something.

Puns are fair game! I've run "Quilty Pleasures" in six U.S. dailies.

Thank you. I don't have the energy.

How old do you think I am? 🤣 I'm mad as hell, and I can't take it anymore!

It started in the '90s. It is now barefaced.

Who the fuck is Alice? (if you do not get this reference, Gompie is what you're looking for.)

He has. What he's not previously done is tell us that we're right to be furious. Perhaps there's meaning there.

Be well.

OK, so now can we get an explanation for the three seashells?

You're not getting that through 35 states. There's the Congressional problem, too. He seems to understand the process and thought it would be a waste of time.

I actually have! Grew way more shrooms than needed. Like seriously, four fucking quarts, which I figured would made for good trade at a regional burn. Except everyone had them, too. Trading for E was a difficult ask.

Friendly reminder that Thunderbird is a great way to handle multiple email accounts on the desktop.

Amazon's argument seems to boil down to "we sell products, not ads, so the law shouldn't apply to us." The EC response seems to be "what you would like the law to say is not what it says."

Regardless, the fact that Amazon doesn't like the law means it was written to protect consumers from corporations. In the states, we've completely forgotten that government is supposed to do precisely that.

So, IBM walks into a Nazi bar, and after six drinks, slurrs to the bartender, "What's with all the swastikas?"

Here's an idea: How about zero days?

I admittedly don't get how this is even a thing, having bought unlocked phones for prepaid service going on 14 years now. Wait for a sale on a phone, get a high-end device for like $800 (financing always available), and pay $200 once a year for service.

It's appalling to me that people think more than $17/month for cell service is reasonable.

Raising the payroll cap has always been the sane, easy solution. The notion that after a certain point you make too much to be taxed is one of the most glaring examples of fucking the working class via regressive policy.

Poorly thought-out Facebook posts are forever; coverage of city council malfeasance from two years ago, not so much.

At this point, the goal is to normalize the rhetoric. He's been very effective at being able to downplay things by having said them for years. We know his playbook; he's continuing to follow it.

"Not enough people are paying at $11.99. We need to charge more."

Just because landlords think they can push through 16% price hikes doesn't mean everyone got a 16% raise. So they're trying to steer people from uBO by ... enticing them with higher prices?

Beau has three videos out on it already. He's really good for context on military things.

For an article that tries to push a groupthink narrative to work, the people using the "discouraged" product need to believe the "encouraged" one has feature parity with zero downsides.

I guarantee that no one is accidentally using Firefox because they're unaware of the alternatives.

As to conspiracies, it's not really the businesses, it's the property.

This is the sort of deep learning I can see benefiting society, as opposed, to say, summarizing Great Expectations for an essay.

Here's the truly evil part:

All free-form adverts are supposed to show some kind of sponsored label, though that doesn't appear to be the case on the three posts included in this story. While Leica's shows it, neither Philadelphia post includes a tag indicating it's sponsored content. We understand that's because the Philadelphia posts are no longer boosted by ad spending, so are back to just being normal user posts.

Ad stays up in perpetuity, tag has a shelf life, after which it looks like a normal post. Can you sponsor a post for an hour like it's a seedy motel room?

Also: As these are regular posts with brief decoration, I'd assume uBO might have trouble filtering them out.

That closing quote is ominous:

"Recall is currently in preview status," Microsoft says on its website. "During this phase, we will collect customer feedback, develop more controls for enterprise customers to manage and govern Recall data, and improve the overall experience for users."

I read "so, yeah, we built in all the telemetry connections we swear we'll never use ... just for testing, ya know?"

Always the sign of a stable democracy.

I'm guessing there's a bit of source bias here. I'll buy that Windows won't be dominant in 10 years, but defaulting to Apple doesn't seem backed by the data presented.
