Stephen Miller may have just accidentally confirmed that he, not President Donald Trump, is the one calling the shots in regard to deportation raids and National Guard deployments.
Wait was this an actual question? Yes, Trump's brains are mush. Dude likely couldn't recall what's on a tortilla and beef only taco.
There are zero ways that Trump is actually calling jack shit.
Alternate headline: Pam Bondi proves that she can't independently think.
LOL. That's not even a real ask. It's like if I walked into work tomorrow and asked for a 200% raise.
His handlers are showing him exactly what they need him to see.
Same thing I was saying about Trump leaving in 2020. He might be gone, but the people who found him useful aren't. Whatever we attribute to Trump, the thing to remember is that Trump is just the outlet. There's a whole wellspring that is the source of his vitriol.
Lindsey Halligan. She's an interim AG. When this filling was going down, she had been on the job as a prosecutor for four days.
Her previous experience is an insurance attorney. So, yeah, going to be a lot more of these "oopsies" along the way.
I don't blame the Canadians.
Noem’s actions in Naples suggest the injection of political favoritism into an agency tasked with saving lives and rebuilding communities wiped out by disaster
Suggest?
arguing that decided cases are not “the gospel,”
This is correct, but not in the sense that he provides. Society changes, what was okay before may not be okay now. Weighing precedent and modern society is a careful process. Tossing off precedent should have justification for why it's being shrug and there needs to a preponderance that this is indeed the shift of society.
Walking in and saying, "well we should just outright critical" is absolutely not the way to do it. Overturning previous case law should happen, but that shouldn't be the fucking default. And when you do overturn previous case law, you really need to bring a fuck ton of support, not, "meh we changed our mind." Being a contrarian for sake of rocking the boat isn't how our highest court should operate.
Might want to get a mosquito net.
A representation of a binuclear compound of element 10^(56) with an average bond length of 100 quintillion angstroms.
Okay that was funny.
Well I mean I recently heard one of their FoxNews "experts" saying Hitler was in heaven. So... Really it's a matter of what company you want to keep.
When they bring up Murthy v. Missouri it's always good to remind them what the Supreme Court said.
To establish standing, the plaintiffs must demonstrate a substantial risk that, in the near future, they will suffer an injury that is traceable to a government defendant and redressable by the injunction they seek. Because no plaintiff has carried that burden, none has standing to seek a preliminary injunction.
Karlyn Borysenko. That's the "expert" being talked about here.
I think crazy undersells her.
fascism might actually be our only option to actually defeat the left
Now, my political stance aside, I think anyone who is in this mindset is someone who is having issues understanding how a Democracy works. Or Republic or whatever she is feeling like calling it today. She's really famous for getting hung up on incredibly small details about words and what they mean. So meaningful debate with her is nonexistent.
She's definitely one of those all bark but if there was an actual outbreak of violence in this nation, be the first one on an airplane out of the country. So, to me at least, her opinion is vanishingly insignificant. Especially in the domain of how to approach any far end political group. Because, anyone who feels violence will solve something is someone who has no real solution.
Also she gets super hung up on education and she should stop trying to be Governor or whatever aspirations she has, and go get on a school board or something. Being a talking head on Fox isn't any kind of distinction, they have random people yapping all day on there.
But her saying "Hitler went to heaven", that tracks. It's just that the color of the sky in her head is that special. Also, if there was a heaven and Hitler's in it. I'll be more than happy to take the opposite (which that's the point of their argument that the opposite doesn't exist, again special colors of the sky there). But her perspective of Hitler is mostly fueled with incredibly poor understanding of World War II. But there's no point is discussing that matter with her because, you'd have a better chance convincing a wall that it's a window.
Again, it's a lot to do with the whole "what do words actually mean?!" kind of argument with her. It tiring trying to ask her what the fucking weather is at the moment while you are both standing outside. She's THAT kind of person to debate with. But it's whatever, takes all kinds to make the world go round. I wouldn't invest a hay penny in anything she has to say, but everyone is free to do whatever they want.
The whole acetaminophen is bad thing isn't a new one. It's part of a crack pot theory of oxidative stress and autism. The only problem is that oxidative stress is one of those very broad terms. The air you breathe can cause oxidative stress because of various types of pollution. Eating bacon can cause oxidative stress. Particular fertilizers used to grow a wide variety of plants can cause oxidative stress. Literally not getting enough sleep can cause oxidative stress.
It's a really broad terms for random free radicals of oxygen in the body, which strip electrons, etc, etc, etc... It's also what brings about antioxidants. Chemicals that take the oxidative "blow" for your cells. And this is all sound science, but everyone experiences oxidative stress and not everyone is autistic, contrary to what apparently RFK believes by trying to pander this bullshit.
Also, just right out the gate. The whole thing doesn't make sense for how it's supposed to work when we have fraternal twins who one is autistic and the other isn't. Which gets into the whole "likely a genetic thing" seeing how identical twins where one is autistic, the other usually is as well. And the difference in rates between fraternal twins and identical twins suggests a strong genetic link rather than environmental. But that doesn't rule out environment.
But the thing is what RFK is pandering isn't new. There's been a ton of studies that associate oxidative stress to autism. But as the saying goes, association isn't causation.
Also at the other end is their recommendation of folinic acid. Which, I can't, it's just Vitamin B bullshit stuff. The various B Complex is important in development for a child. This is why folic acid is given out to pregnant mothers. But there's no evidence to support that any formulation of Vitamin B prevents, slows, reverses, or cures autism. I just don't understand that segment of medicine where they've gone deep end with Vitamin B. It's important, don't get me wrong, but eating quintuple dosing of it isn't "curing" cancer so much as causing irreversible liver damage and possibly sending you into a seizure.
It's whatever. Any form of legitimacy in the HHS disappeared with RFK. I think people are going to look at this as "oh yeah confirms my life long held bias" or "RFK is nut job." But as for moving the needle, this isn't going to move anything. Most doctors will not care that HHS made this announcement and will continue to act as if it didn't exist. Because there's a mountain of evidence that this is just crackpot theory shit.
European e-waste campaigners are calling on EU leadership to force tech vendors to provide 15 years of software updates, using Microsoft's plan to end Windows 10 support next month — which may make an estimated 400 million PCs obsolete — as a textbook case of avoidable e-waste.
Windows 10 has already had 10 years of support. ESU extends this one extra year. If you have hardware that cannot meet Windows 11's requirements, there are other OSes available that will happily run on that hardware. Which is what brings us to the real issue.
Microsoft's near monopoly on consumer grade PCs and Apple's vendor lock in. This is the core issue.
Companies can do this because there are no regulations to stop them. We call on European Commissioner Jessika Roswall to introduce EU Ecodesign requirements for laptops, guaranteeing at least 15 years of software updates. No more devices designed to break or become obsolete before their time
Ten years is a very long time for support. If you need support past that length, you need a different OS. Apple does good to keep Macs made in the last five to seven years still able to run their newest OS. They are some of the worse offenders on this. But even with a different OS, there's still a limit to how far you can take hardware. You could put the best optimized software on really old hardware and that won't change that the underlying CPU is old.
The older hardware gets the harder it is to keep supporting it. Case in point, there reason you can't get TLS 1.2 that pretty much every site now requires onto Windows 95 era machine is the underlying hardware cannot keep up with the required computational needs to support that encryption. And if you happened to install Windows 95 onto modern hardware, the number of changes to the OS to get access to the underlying hardware is pretty much an upgrade to Windows 7.
Ten year old machines are doing alright for the time being, but we have to move on. TLS 1.3 is here, has been here since 2018. The stricter requirements for security, require more advanced hardware.
And I just mention TLS as a single example of what we're talking about here. Modern hardware advances and attackers and users get those at the same time. While software security schemes do ensure security long after the hardware has become dated, there's a point where it won't matter anymore what software you toss onto the machine. It's just so out dated it doesn't matter, no software is securing it. Now that's usually a lot longer than ten years, but it's not much longer.
You can take a very lightweight Linux distro and pop it onto a Pentium 3 machine. It will technically run. But you are lacking SSE2 and even if you recompiled to remove SSE2 optimizations and strictly held to 586 ISA, you're not going to enjoy the performance on the machine. For even the most simple tasks like unpacking a 7-zip. You will fare very unwell to some attacker who has a modern Threadripper machine.
I love old machines but the rest of the world is moving forward. Yes, software could technically cover for more than ten years, but not much more. But it's silly to think that a Athlon 64 (2003), the oldest CPU you can technically get working on Windows 10 because of the NX bit requirement, would be able to keep pace on today's multi megabyte sized website. Hell even the X2 models that were the first to be "dual core" would have issues with how modern web browsers handle things because Athlon 64 X2's model for multiple processors is vastly different than how modern CPUs do it. It wouldn't take anything for someone to feed it a website that would bring the system to it's knees.
The thing is 15 years a very long time in the world of technology that's ever evolving. Software can only go so far. 15 years is absolutely you need a different OS if that's your requirement territory. But when you start hitting 20 years, your going to see breakage no matter what software you throw at it. It might be very slight at the 20 year mark. but each year after that it's going to become more pronounced.
Doubtful that the claims will prevail. However, the filing court in Orlando is one of the courts he has out there that are packed Trump judges. Out of the 12 that sit the bench, 6 are Trump appointments. That said, even with those six in his pocket, it won't be enough to push through the claim in appeals, if it even gets that far. The Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit is the same court that struck down plenty of Florida's Online laws as violating the first amendment.
Even though they are mostly Trump appointments, the court even with them, has had a strong lean to tell the Government when it comes to speech to fuck off. Which also Cartwright which told University of Central Florida their anti-harassment policy went overboard and violated the first amendment.
Do they've demonstrated that there's very little that rises outside of protected speech. Be it a Floridian law banning children online or students yelling slurs. It's definitely a double edge sword, but I can't see this court siding with Trump on this. Defamation for this court has to directly turn into absolute loss, so Trump would have the onus to bring receipts on how it harmed him, which I highly doubt.
But all of this is a great reason why the US Government needs to implement Federal anti-SLAPP protections.
Hyundai already announced a two to three month delay on this plant after this whole thing. They aren't walking away, but this isn't an event they are forgetting.
It won't matter what President comes after this one, this whole thing is going to influence investment from South Korea for some time.
Yeah, seeing dude, and the memes he was putting on casings. I think this is very much a Fuentes boy. The second I heard the Hell Diver's code on a bullet casing I was like, "Ah man it was one of those fucking 4chan rejects that killed him."
Make sense why when Trump was asked today, "How you holding up?" He was like, "Have you seen my new ballroom to the White House?"
They giving Charlie Kirk the fucking Herman Cain treatment. Going to forget him like his name was Phil Valentine. Going to hang his family out to dry like a former mayor of New York City.
And then you had that fucking Governor of Utah saying:
For 33 hours I was praying that if this had to happen here, it wouldn't be one of us.
Just FUCKING HELL. No chill, all racism. Damn. They going to have to forget about Charlie Kirk like they did all those people who died from COVID, like all those farmers who going bankrupt because of trade wars, like all those people who are like "He ain't hurting the right people."
I ain't in the camp celebrating Kirk's death. But the way Republicans are jumping ship from Charlie's death is fucking hilarious. So now that we all know the mother fucker ain't getting any deader, how about them fucking Epstein Files? How about all them Republican fuckers who voted to protect a pedo mother fucker?
That last bit of "This is nothing like what it's like at night. It's really bad!"
Oh my god princess. They're blasting music and dancing in inflated costumes. For fuck sake, talk about snowflakes.
