  • There are 538. It's possible to tie with 269 each. Though IIRC the most likely model to get there required Nebraska to do some ratfuckery and change it's one split off district back with the rest of the state.

  • Great now that's all I'll think about when I hear TJ Maxx.

  • Generally speaking the bar for the insanity defense isn't even insanity. If he were insane but capable of understanding that beating someone with a hammer was wrong he'd fail to meet the bar. You basically have to have no idea at all what you're doing or that it's wrong, and you have the burden of proving it.

  • Yeah I'm sure it pushed all the Trump supporters who were about to vote for Harris into rethinking their positions...

  • Trump Media stock has plunged 33% in a month

    Jump

  • If he has to divulge his divestment it's going to go to 0 before he can sell it all. If he doesn't need to divulge it, it's still going to go close to zero because the market for that stock won't hold if 60% of it hits the market. If he's been able to borrow against it, he'll probably default and leave his lenders holding the bag.

  • In Leak, Facebook Partner Brags About Listening to Your Phone’s Microphone to Serve Ads for Stuff You Mention

  • Using the permission to record audio triggers an on-screen indicator that the mic is recording. Someone would probably notice it on 24/7 recording. Someone would have also by now found the constant stream of network traffic to send the audio to be analyzed, because they also aren't doing that on-device.

  • RFK Jr. expected to drop out of race by end of week, plans to endorse Trump: Sources

  • If he's on any ballots he might well be stuck on them, but nothing stops him from ceasing to campaign and telling people to vote Trump.

    Ofc some tiny fraction may still vote for him if they really want to.

  • YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers

    Jump

  • Last time I disabled an ad blocker to try it on desktop, I was getting scammy looking product ads. On my phone if I browse Shorts (revanced doesn't stop those ads) it's all straight-up financial/health benefits scams.

    But the other night I accidentally opened the 1st party YouTube app on my TV instead of Smart Tube Next and the ads were for big brands. So there's probably a different level of desirability based on content type and device type at play.

  • YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers

    Jump

  • They get some control but it depends on the content how exactly it works. I think for normal videos they get a say right from the start where the breaks are. But I know one guy who does YT and he live streams and has to clean up every VOD because they just randomly pepper ads all throughout.

  • YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers

    Jump

  • On rare occasions YouTube will play exceptionally long videos as ads. When YouTube Red came out I got multiple entire hours long shows as ads (as a "free preview!") I'm pretty sure Ive gotten one of the movies they put up for free viewing as an ad before.

    Obviously you can skip after 5 seconds or whatever but they hope to catch someone playing stuff in the background. Probably to increase their crappy view count for those features to sell actual ads later.

  • Chrystul Kizer jailed for 11 years for killing her abuser

  • She was free from him and sought him out. She drove from Milwaukee to Kenosha, shot him twice in the head, set his house on fire, and stole his car. It was premeditated murder.

  • Elon Musk may have to sell billions in Tesla stock to rescue X

    Jump

  • The only issue with nationalizing it is that it will be probably even worse for moderation than under Elon. Private enterprises currently enjoy protection for moderation decisions. If it were nationalized any moderator action would run up against the First Amendment directly. Elon could ban Nazis (he doesn't but he could). A government controlled entity cannot.

  • Those issues are ones that it's hard to just walk back with a mea culpa, especially when the apology comes precisely when it starts to impact your career.

  • The Apex Legends hacking situation was unrelated to the anti-cheat despite initial reports. It didn't stop the hack but it also wasn't the vector for the attacks.

    Genshin Impact's anti-cheat however was an unmitigated disaster.

  • ZLUDA was an open source translation layer for CUDA. So basically developers could take code from projects written for Nvidia's CUDA and use ZLUDA to run them on other hardware. Originally the dev was focused on Intel but AMD started paying him and he focused on AMD hardware. They stopped funding him earlier in the year and now it appears AMD legal has gone back on their earlier permission for him to keep distributing the code.
