The party that supports summary execution as a punishment for Driving While Black has now extended that to any incident of Driving.

The entire thing is bizarre. Old people should just have healthcare. Everyone should. This business of shopping for plans during a defined window? Madness. No other country is like this.

Absolutely no way would I spend an hour golfing around the settings in a MODBUS interface to debug CRC errors before checking I had put the terminating resistor in. That would literally never happen.

OK, but that’s an exhaustive list of the people the Tories care about.

We can stop this. It only needs one person to say to the orange dude that it’s predicted to get higher ratings than his rallies or the SOTU.

They wrote this with a straight face. Cracking down on political violence? @libradunn1.bsky.social would like a word.

Former Justice Department officials called the visit unusual, given the historical norm of insulating federal criminal investigations from political officials. The administration and FBI have said Miller's visit was appropriate, pointing to his role at the White House and the administration's broader focus on cracking down on political violence.

One issue with this is that Camp David already exists. Another is the blatant corruption. A third is that after It Happens, nobody will want to be publicly associated with the shitstain that is the Trump name. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Reminder: these Afghans were people who would have been killed by the Taliban if we had left them behind, specifically including interpreters and others who helped our troops in-country. Yusuf wants to throw them under the bus. Or, in this case, under the blade of a sword wielded by a mad theocrat.

Remarkable that people still believe in polygraphs. I have known they are pseudoscientific bullshit since the 70s, when I started reading The Stainless Steel Rat. Slippery Jim routinely fools them, and I checked if that is a thing. Yes. Yes, it is.

The complete absence of introspection in the party generally is quite remarkable. It's like your racist uncle who gets all his news from the Daily Mail and Facebook, but at a group level.

This is great. Keep it up, people! The harm is individualized, so every single person affected should sue Flock individually for as much as they can. Bury those fuckers in lawsuits until they get the Flock out of town. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnEj...

I have an ice maker. Garbage disposal? Stupid. We have a food waste recycling bin, much better. And guess what? Hanging your clothes out to dry is (a) free and (b) better for your clothes.

No AC, no garbage disposal, no ice maker... and you hang your clothes to dry instead of using a dryer machine?

I’ve always thought of Trump as the end of shame as a moderating force in right-wing politics, but I had forgotten Archer. He returned to the Lords after a stint in jail for perjury, and the exposure of much of his CV as fabrication. The Tories still love him. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

OK, Jeffrey Archer was a liar who ruined Monica Coghlan’s life, but offset against that we have to acknowledge his substantial body of truly abysmal books.

Huh! Technology in “exceeds expectations” shocker. I replaced my ageing UniFi switch, cloudkey and NVR, with a DreamMachine SE. Total power draw is down from 110W to 53W, and the UniFi UPS forecast runtime is around an hour even running my 4-bay Synology NAS. That’s genuinely pleasing!
