Pour one out for Robert X. Cringley. Dude was an absolute legend in tech commentary for decades, and I started reading his stuff in Infoworld back in the day.

Add-on, ISCO has had at least TWO deputies credibly accused of crimes that were not charged. This tells you what you need to know about how that office is being run. Why am I the one who has to bring all this up? Isn't news supposed to add background and context to current events? #utpol

3) Ken Carpenter ran as a "constitutional sheriff" which, as some of you know, means he sees sheriffs as the sovereign arbiters of what is and is not the law. Again, more sovcit nonsense. If there were actual local reporters around here, the Trib would know all this! #utpol

Well, I can answer on behalf of ICSO. 1) Brad Green, local libertarian nutter arrested for DV who bailed Ammon out, maintains close ties with as many elected officials as he can. 2) Ken Carpenter has maintained warm exchanges with militia groups, so he's sympathetic to sovcit nonsense. #utpol

Gotta make sure it gets the winter sun too. We miscalculated on ours and it gets a LOT of shade from the house.

This described someone assaulting children. That's a serious felony and cause for civil action in most states.

Almost every elected Republican has lost their very soul over the last decade, either by embracing evil or deferring to it.

First time on a 737-MAX8 and it's WAY nicer than the 800s and 900s I'm used to. It's almost up to A320/321 standards.

John should understand that Pete would take that as praise. #utpol

Supporting evidence: Gen X who was DEFINITELY going through a midlife crisis after decades of "I'm so forgotten" self pity overwhelmingly voted for this.

The Internet was better when it was all nerds and weirdos (laudatory) and not nerds and weirdos (derogatory).

Imagine your solution to rampant and intentional lawbreaking is more laws.

Gordon B. Hinckley said the same 21 years ago. I guess everyone needed a bit of a reminder that gambling is a very bad idea, both personally and societally. #lds #genconf #generalconference www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/genera...

Gambling

If you have never been involved in poker games or other forms of gambling, don’t start. If you are involved, then quit now while you can do so.

I guess the appeal worked and a GIF of Captain Underpants is no longer tagged as "sexually suggestive".

That's why Greg Garcia shows like My Name is Earl and Raising Hope are SO GOOD. Yes, these are deeply flawed people, but... they don't want to be! They're trying to do better in spite of their upbringing and circumstances!

Only reason Vegas is getting an expansion team is because there isn't one to steal from Oakland.

Savagely mock anyone who thinks we should rehab Nixon. If anything, we didn't treat him harshly enough.

Public lands are all too often treated as some kind of "slush fund" for favored interests.

I have gotten so so SO used to this, choking in the final moments. To be fair, though, the Cubs just BARELY made it here this year.

I have, of course, notified my city council. They swore up one way and down the other that the data would be siloed for exclusive city use under heavy audit and, well, this is demonstrably untrue and a blatant contract violation requiring immediate service termination.

If you put a gun to my head and said I could have either EDR or DNS filtering, I would pick DNS filtering. It's almost no negative performance impact and stops more real world threats.

Dynamic pricing is the kind of thing that doesn't happen in a competitive market. My kingdom for some anti-trust enforcement.

The paralyzing inability of mainstream media to say "hey, that's a lie" is a HUGE contributing factor here. They got bullied by the liars and grifters into both sides view from nowhere nonsense instead of doing their job.

Jesse Harris @elforesto.coolestfamilyever.com · 30/09/2026

To be fair, there was a lot of "he doesn't mean that, it's just hyperbole" marketing that the mass media was all too happy to amplify. Our political system primes people for expecting big promises to end up in minor actions.

It's kind of wild that ballistas in #Valheim don't have "friend or foe" detection OOTB. Kind of an essential mod to fix this. www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods...

Ya know, it's entirely possible that other countries were quietly using these exploits and ShinyHunters going public burned those valuable sources. Which probably attracted attention from governments that would use less restraint than the US in their responses.

Jesse Harris @elforesto.coolestfamilyever.com · 28/09/2026

lololol Someone figured out that targeting law enforcement might be a major escalation. Like "get tossed in an unmarked van" kind of stuff.

Such a confusing headline. It makes it seem like churches are asking MS to directly give them money, not asking as part of a broader coalition to invest in the community as a whole.

There are a lot of people on the political right who know, but they do or say little to make it clear that they know. They do not deserve rehabilitation when it's over.

When you have too many chiles, you make enchilada sauce. And when you have too much enchilada sauce and too many zucchini, you make zucchini enchiladas.

I've seen so many of these over-the-top dishes made for viral videos, and they never look good. Too much fat, too much food, too many competing flavors that do not compliment each other. It's meme fodder and that's it.
