  • GOP senator says she went from ‘I don’t care’ to ‘I see what the big deal is’ after reviewing unredacted Epstein files

    Jump

  • It also helps that they also likely realize that the truth will get out sooner or later and don't want to be among the ones who protected those monsters.

    It's about a decade late for that.

  • TV Execs Warn FCC: NextGen TV DRM Could Turn Free TV Into Gambling and Pay-TV Platforms

    Jump

  • I've been wanting to watch the Olympics, but have so far failed because my previous VPN + Canadian coverage strategy doesn't work (CBC requires an account now) and I can't find my TV remote to switch the input from my set-top box to the antenna.

  • TV remotes should have an easy-to-find (by touch) "volume toggle" button that toggles between two volume settings.

    Jump

  • This would be possible to DIY if 'smart' TVs weren't DRM'd pieces of shit.

  • Donald Trump told police in mid 2000s ‘everyone has known’ about Jeffrey Epstein’s misconduct

    Jump

  • they’ll just continue to scream and bleat something about gay books in the library being the biggest threat to children

    Because this is genuinely what they want.

  • While we're reporting issues, here's two more:

    • It doesn't put the closing quotation mark on the output.
    • It doesn't use correct quotation marks for each language (in French, quotation marks «look like this», for example).

  • Pro-Trump Town Stunned After ICE Raids Leave It “Nearly Destroyed”

    Jump

  • One of the defining characteristics of conservatives is their inability to understand that not everyone else is as shitty as they are. If you pointed out to them that yes, other people did in fact think something like that could happen, they'd just assume you were lying.

  • As a private person doing nothing illegal, is there value to having a VPN?

    Jump

  • Took me a minute to find it again, but there was an excellent essay answering this question. From https://thompson2026.com/blog/deviancy-signal/ :

    There's a special kind of contempt I reserve for the person who says, "I have nothing to hide." It's not the gentle pity you'd have for the naive. It's the cold, hard anger you hold for a collaborator. Because these people aren't just surrendering their own liberty. They're instead actively forging the chains for the rest of us. They are a threat, and I think it's time they were told so.

    ...

    On a societal scale, this inaction becomes a collective betrayal. The power of the Deviancy Signal is directly proportional to the number of people who live transparently. Every person who refuses to practice privacy adds another gallon of clean, clear water to the state's pool, making any ripple of dissent ... any deviation ... starkly visible. This is not a passive choice. By refusing to help create a chaotic, noisy baseline of universal privacy, you are actively making the system more effective. You are failing to do your part to make the baseline all deviant, and in doing so, you make us all more vulnerable.

  • I hate to say it (bc Microsoft), but you should've used Bing so you'd get a Klingon translation.

  • New Player Friendly

  • Restraining the bard is what makes the game new player friendly.

  • u mad?

    Jump

  • That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. Why would "we'll capitulate once you give up your leverage" ever be entertained as a serious offer, in any context? You'd have to be an absolute moron to fall for it.

  • Cats

    Jump

  • My opinion (as a guy) is that tights and pantyhose ought to be for special occasions because they just aren't durable enough for everyday use. Either wear a skirt or dress without them, or wear pants.

  • Trump Allies Near ‘Total Victory’ in Wiping Out U.S. Climate Regulation

    Jump

  • They are literally trying to murder our children. Why are we letting them?

  • JD Vance ridiculed for 40-car motorcade taking him down tiny Italian street

    Jump

  • I enjoy ridiculing dipshits as much as the next guy, but this has basically nothing to do with urbanism because VIP motorcades -- regardless of how excessive their length might be -- occur infrequently enough to be negligible. The next time I see similar stuff posted it'll be removed as off-topic.

  • Wide Cars

    Jump

  • I want to see that and the half-width Jeep (also owned by the same museum) driving down two lanes side by side.

  • I built my own modular Couch... bc that's a thing you can just do ig

  • I also have a minivan now. It doesn't have enough towing capacity either. (In a remarkable coincidence, it's apparently the same as my Ranger, although I've never towed with it because it doesn't have a hitch.)
