Don’t know why. Even his wife stopped giving a fuck a couple weeks after.

It’s a start but doesn’t fully address the problem.

Eh, I’d say it addresses everything that matters.

The root of the problem was that deleting the account was an exploit to avoid limit admin research and further actions, and federation of content removal. That’s the only reason they were bothering to do it. The fix allows admins to research properly, and for federation of removal actions.

It doesn’t solve the root of the issue with bad actors, but that’s a much larger issue well beyond the scope of a couple bug fixes.

Animals haven’t been able to go war and prove that they can beat us. With the notable exception of The Australian Emu.

Not really… According to Pew Research Approximately 45% of Republicans report owning a gun, compared to about 20% of Democrats. Considering the parties are often roughly equally sized when it comes to these statistical models, that’s not actually a massive difference. There are plenty of armed Democrats, they’re just not vocal about wanting to worship their tools.

People claiming a personal relationship with the goddamn creator of the universe are hella conceited.

I’d say even prideful, you know one of the 7 deadly sins, often considered the worst of them and even the root/source of the other 6. The sheer hubris needed to believe you have a personal connection that others don’t is ridiculous.

Does the Louvre actively refuse all attempts to retrieve original works and tell the requestors the fuck off the way the British Museum does?

From my understanding that’s more of a British-specific problem, not most museums in general.

Bet you Trump threatened to cancel the World Cup hosting in the US unless they gave him something. It’s essentially impossible to reschedule an event that large this close to the start.

You know multi-tasking is a thing. There’s more than one person in the office that can work on stuff simultaneously. And they almost certainly have someone that posts these types of things to the social media accounts.

Quit acting like there is only one person and they can only do one thing at a time. You just look like an idiot.

They generally avoid doing this brazen shit in states and areas that are more armed.

Not sure that’s actually the case. Most of the people that I know with firearms are either Democrats or former Republicans that have left because of the current Republican party shit.

But I’m also in southern AZ, relatively near Adelita’s district. AZ has been a weird purple-ish amalgamation shifting back and forth for decades now.

Republicans have an inherent belief that everything is zero-sum. If someone is getting something discounted, then they must be losing something or paying extra in exchange.

Same, my commute is about a half hour, with 2 main routes I could take that are about the same time. Just knowing if one of those is screwed up can be the difference between an okay drive in and hell.

You are not wrong. It’s not even a theory.

Studies have shown that most corporate CEOs exhibit many psychopathic tendencies. It’s how they are able to rise to the top, they don’t give a fuck about anyone else, so it doesn’t get in the way.

Then they use the money from those positions of power to try and manipulate whatever sociopolitical ends they want. They buy media companies to manipulate what narratives are told to the public, and how certain situations are covered, spun, or ignored entirely. They use those companies to create artificial campaigns turning certain groups against each other as distractions. If people are arguing about “small” things, they don’t have time to notice the big things being done.

That would require thought being put into it. That’s a lot to ask for, clearly.

Most likely explanation… Modern monitors effectively have their own little PCs inside… that go to sleep when the monitor does to save power. Older monitors didn’t give a crap about power usage at all.

The meetings are only there when higher level decisions have to be made, or they need out of the box brainstorming. Because even the enlisted are trusted to be able to make determinations themselves, otherwise they wouldn’t have made it through the academy and been assigned. Theoretically of course.

Also a good reminder that this Justice Department failed to indict the guy that threw a sandwich at ICE twice, then reduced the charges to a misdemeanor to bypass the grand jury, and still failed to get a conviction.

Normally federal charges aren’t brought unless there’s a strong case. The Federal conviction rate is usually over 90% because they don’t bother going after things they probably won’t win. They seem to have thrown that out the window in their haste to target political enemies. Turning the entire department into a laughing stock for anyone paying attention.

Well considering the article is about a product launch in the US… seems relevant. Carrier locking isn’t illegal at all in the US.

They didn’t even used to have to unlock it once a contract was over, not that most carriers at the time would allow unlocked phones on their network anyway, they do at least have to do that now.

The first step is ranked choice voting for everything from local to federal elections.

First past the post is literally the worst way to operate a voting system of your goal is to get an accurate representation of the populace.

Granted this was 15 years ago. The market was a lot different than it is now.

That being said, most people still buy their phones through their carrier. So whatever the carrier sales reps get paid the most to sell is what they push people towards.
