  • Uninterupted? Sounds like this place has never closed, even during war, in 300 years. I presume exceptions for holidays and maintenance.

  • Is that even one potato?

  • Israel accuses Mamdani of antisemitism on first day as New York mayor

    Jump

  • From what I've read the new mayor has withdrawn all orders from the previous mayor following his criminal indictment on the grounds that they may be self serving to the previous mayor and/or made as political favors intended to avoid prosecution.

    I've also read the new mayor is reviewing each to see which are worth reimplenting in part or in whole.

    Whether or not this was a wise choice is up for debate, but it is no surprise that those affected were ready to pounce in order to score political points. Someone associated with the new mayor must have seen this coming for this particular religiously charged topic, and must have known the NY press would not be forgiving.

  • Acting CISA director failed a polygraph. Career staff are now under investigation.

  • I think this is less the legitimacy of the tests but the hypocracy of the admin putting such importance in the thing then retalitating against lower level people when one of their own appointees fail.

    Insert "not like this" matrix meme here.

    "Vodka = 95% alcohol" -AI slop

    Jump

  • Yep. Distilled to 95% then cut to 40%. That's why they're so often flavorless. The slop here is the missing information to make this make sense in the context of the paragraph.

  • The FBI spied on a Signal group chat of immigration activists, records reveal

    Jump

  • The FBI said the information came from a “sensitive source with excellent access”

    So signal not compromised, but a member of the chats was leveraged to share its contents.

  • Democrat Eric Swalwell faces federal criminal inquiry for alleged mortgage fraud

    Jump

  • Every instance I've seen with actual details has been improper use of real property tax exemptions. In many states you get a discounted tax rate by declaring your home as your primary residence. If you own several properties you only get the discount on one, which is supposed be the one you live at the most (ie primary residence).

    The "fraud" part comes in play if you claim multiple properties as your primary. It's harder to do that if the properties are in the same state, but it's easy if they're in different states since states don't talk with one another. It's so easy that it's often accidental.

    We're talking a few grand a year in tax savings. It's ripping off your state by under paying and people in these positions should know better so it's harder to give them sympathy, but elevating what may be an accident to a supposed major scandal is a silly headline making exercise.

    And why is this happening? Retribution, of course: first person I recall being attacked in the manner recently was MTG.

  • Top Fannie Mae officials ousted after sounding alarm on sharing confidential housing data

  • I don't think that could have been written any harder to understand.

  • 5FU is a very common chemo for a variety of cancer types. Increasing it's effacacy while reducing side effects would be a major win.

  • On the other hand, giving ink cartridges to a child who doesn't know what it is would be a wild trick!

  • (E-waste) Sonicare 4100 battery access

    Jump

  • The models with the oval bottom just have that cap pressed into the end with two small clips on the long side of the oval. Deforming the oval into a circle and using a small flat blade screwdriver to pry it out is usually all it takes.

    I've successfully desoldered the battery for recharging before. We had one go so completely flat the wireless charging wouldn't work. Putting the battery in an external charger brought it back to life. It was in service for another couple years till a drop in the brush end ruined it.

  • Trump Hit With Devastating All-Time Low Approval Ratings

  • Better provocative headlines:
