  • The left really needs to get more proficient with using AI. The IQ benefits alone are staggering.

  • For me it's mostly the half baked technology angle. I've been in the tech industry for almost twenty years now and I've seen many, many cycles of hype. This one is less obviously dumb than NFTs but it still has all the same hallmarks.

    Maybe it'll be useful at some point for summary or synthesis but for now it's just a neat toy.

  • What to expect on June 14.

  • When will they ever say thank you?

  • Trump’s birthday parade may be cancelled over thunderstorms

  • Trump and Co don't even think about feeding soldiers, let alone poor children.

  • Fox news trying to explain github.

  • For the same reason the whole title is in quotes: American literacy is very poor.

    When and why did the US switch to these voting machines that are the subject of ongoing lawsuits and reports of unlawful "updates"?

    Jump

  • In my case the scrutineers were volunteers from the political parties and didn't have to stay if they didn't want to, but I was a deputy returning officer and I couldn't leave until the count of ballots matched the number of ballots I had given out to people.

    All of this talk about election fraud is just power hungry psychopaths inventing reasons they lost. Large scale cheating with paper ballots is much harder than digital systems.

    One difference I've seen between out elections is we have more polling stations. It's unusual for people to wait longer than 15 minutes to vote.

    We always have results that evening. Polls close at eight pm and results are finalized by midnight.

  • Yes cause so much harder to modify a paper ballot, especially the mailed ones

    Correct. It is. Because to do enough to change the result you need to do it alot, and that's really hard to get away with.

    In Canada we count the ballots with witnesses (called scutineers) to validate.

  • Why more youth are landing in the ER with vomiting from cannabis use

    Jump

  • I'm a daily user for years and I've never heard of this. I wonder if it has to do with the way they're consuming it. Shady vapes from the internet could be causing trouble, not the thc itself.

  • So embarrassing

    Jump

  • Burning down the Whitehouse is a point of pride for Canadians.

  • Crop insurance costs taxpayers billions. But it only benefits big farms and companies.

    Jump

  • Agreed. Stop subsidizing it. This will obviously hurt the farmers in the area but hey, free market. Insurance isn't a charity.

  • Los Angeles anti-ICE protesters clash with police, set fires downtown amid National Guard deployment

    Jump

  • It probably would. Just wear your most tacti-cool gear and join a group. You'd need several people on board to make a difference though.

    Those assholes don't show name or insignia. Show them the problem with that.

  • 'Something much much bigger': Ex-Trump insider warns of 'chilling' new plan

    Jump

  • I've heard of places organizing many small protests, like a few hundred people, in many nearby neighborhoods. It forces the police to spread out too much to be effective.

  • The Los Angeles Police Department shot an Australian reporter with a rubber bullet while she was live on TV. Zero provocation.

    Jump

  • Much more likely he'll get paid leave to deal with the "trauma" of the negative attention he'll get.

  • A huge outbreak has made Ontario the measles centre of the western hemisphere.

    Jump

  • How are un vaccinated Mennonites Fords fault? He's done a lot wrong but I don't see how this is on him.

  • A huge outbreak has made Ontario the measles centre of the western hemisphere.

    Jump

  • It 100% is. It has nothing to do with Ford.

  • Hell

    Jump

  • Nine times out of ten it's the second one. I don't mind being a sounding board for some people, but so many sloppy thinkers just don't understand and don't want to make the effort.

  • Gross violations earn Trump's prized club worst health grade in county: report

    Jump

  • The club itself probably is. The restaurant specifically, maybe, maybe not. I've been to a bunch of yacht clubs over the years and the restaurant doesn't always break even. Part of the appeal is having the exclusive spot. If members need to subsidize it, they're often OK with that.

  • Texas may soon require schools to post the Ten Commandments. Meet the Jewish lawmaker fighting back.

    Jump

  • Can't wait for the Satanists to insist on equal representation. It's only happened every time. But then the politicians doing this instead of something useful will just campaign off that too.

  • Canada to expedite nation building projects to counter Trump

    Jump

  • He's got a narrow window to actually accomplish something. We can't have another leader who thinks announcing something is the same as doing it.

    I'd we let this get bogged down in process and consultations it's doomed.

  • I too think in absolutes. Either you're a Christian or a devil worshipper.

    Either you're with us, or you're with the terrorists.

    Wow, life got much easier when I eliminated nuance.
