Hey, you know what's cool, @9to5mac.com? That Washington DC exists. I know we don't get voting representation in Congress, but you'd think you'd allow us to exist on your map.

AI has completely changed the game on calendar invite spam. I wake up every day to fake legal notices and meetings from hacked strangers that take up my entire calendar which I then must manually delete. Nothing has ever made me more #efficient than the beautiful future created by #AI.

There is no Super Intelligence. There is no Department of War. There is no Lake America. There is no Gulf of America. There is no Fort Bragg. Any media outlet or platform that spreads these lies is an enemy of the people, determined to undermine democracy. Make note.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

This is particularly crazy when you see how many NFL venues are scheduled to host Kanye West, a guy who literally released a song about Hitler. Including two of the stadiums who threatened Sheeran! But he didn’t say anything good about Palestinians so it’s fine.

So uh, yes, Macklemore did that antisemitic costume thing over a decade ago so it's understandable to look at him skeptically, but how can Kraft say that his speech at MetLife was antisemitic when he explicitly made the same point Kraft is saying here? Kraft is just lying.
"I said, Free Palestine.

“I want those words to be loud and clear, so the people from Gaza, all the way to the occupied West Bank, know that we have not forgotten them.

"And this next song was inspired by the bravery of Columbia University students who led an encampment movement that mobilized the entire world; open up hearts, myself included, so thank you to those students that risked their diplomas, that risked their tuition, that risked their scholarships, that stood up and said, no. CUAD students, Students for Justice in Palestine, and Jewish Voices for Peace. Thank you, guys.

“To all of my Jewish brothers and sisters: criticism of Israel, criticism of apartheid, being against genocide in no way is a criticism of you. My message is for peace; love for all human beings to be treated with dignity, respect, and equality.

“So I say Free Palestine, I say Free Lebanon, I say Free Cuba, I say Free Congo, Free Sudan, I say Free all people in America living in fear of this terrorist organization, ICE. None of us will be free until we are all free."

So… here we are. I easily have a few DOZEN bugs, across Teams, Word, Excel, Outlook, and Powerpoint, that deserve reporting. But I won't ever report them, because I've easily spent more than half my day today managing our response to the three reports we made the mistake to report. I'm out.

And the whole process is a great window into why @microsoft.com's products have become so shitty. If your response to a bug report is to make the user rue the day they decided to report a bug to you, then they won't report bugs anymore. And your product will get worse and worse and worse.

So, I decided that I'm done reporting bugs to @microsoft.com. Our agency pays a LOT of money to Microsoft every year for licenses, and is supposed to receive reasonable support for it — and this is that reasonable support. It's fundamentally broken, in the burn-it-to-the-ground-and-rebuild-it way.
