mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Ive tried and they false alarm like crazy or lack basic features like muting an alarm through the app. You basically get 1 fuckup in a house with a kid who doesn’t sleep well.. both kiddle and first alert burned that bridge. Reviews agree: 000

mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Michigan hasnt released General numbers yet but the primary saw ~300k more mail in ballot requests than the 2022 primary saw. The total number of absentee ballots requested (2M) is lower than 2024 (2.3M), but that wasnt a midterm, so no surprise. 010
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 01/10/2026They dye agricultural diesel red since it’s usually exempt from taxes - it lets inspectors ensure that the farmers aren’t using it for non-Ag purposes. 000
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 30/09/2026My assumption is that one of their DOJ suits on the topic was still pending when Trump came back into office and rather than fight it, they just laundered the texts through JW to set up viral moments like this one. But they’re all very stupid so this was the result. 111
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Yep!

mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 28/09/2026If it’s the incident I’m thinking of, it wasn’t even a military vessel, which raises the question of wtf a bunch of marines were going to do on a merchant vessel… 010
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Ah right, fair - maybe just signing up fake customers for the commissions and then the insurance companies keeping the subsidies? I saw a more detailed series of claims by some right wing ghoul about why this was an issue but can’t find it now. 120
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 26/09/2026No idea how prevalent it actually is, no idea why they decided to release headline about taking insurance from 1 million people if the real answer is “we busted 20 fraud rings” but here we are, not looking gift horses in the mouth. 000
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 26/09/2026As far as I can tell, the steel man case for how they’re designating this as fraud is shady brokers are signing people up without their knowledge and then pocketing the subsidy (Eg a $1,500/mo plan might get a $500 subsidy, so if you lie about the plan, you can collect $500/mo) 210
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 26/09/202610 years ago: “How’d he turn out so normal given who his father is?” Now: “Ah, right” What a disappointment Felicia turned out to be. 120
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Beck’s team is hard at work scrubbing it from the internet but one of his fans tried to murder my coworkers and was only stopped because he was driving so erratically that he got pulled over and had a shootout with the cops. Fuck that guy and anyone who helped repair his reputation. 0100
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Glenn Beck had the same revelation before he saw the decline in $$$ from abandoning the grift, now he’s back on the team. Zero scruples, they're like truffle pigs for credulous boomer money. I’m sure Tucker will find a new cause soon. 1202
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Such a clever use of both heat pump tech and fracking tech.. must be other areas to expand both into but congrats to Tim and team that’s great 070
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Alas, ‘friend‘ is a generous descriptor - more of a former classmate, but given his wife’s loud views, I’m just assuming he’s of the same mindset. 120
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Sure - what happened to those magazines and newspapers after that? 100
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Yep.. friends wife is posting about how she can’t believe someone who doesn’t have any Michigan values is poised to win… the Bloomfield Hills, UMich football and lacrosse playing doctor. Wonder what she’s referring to there… 191
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Friend of mine bought one of those stupid Toyota fuel cell cars with the intent to fuel up at the AC Transit facility that they advertise — fueling there was broken more than 1/2 the time he tried. 020
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/20261,000%. “Critics claim” or “People say” or anything slippery like that — “who? Who is saying that? Who was it and what was their specific complaint?“ Politicians would be better served getting used to answering like that as well IMO. Don’t let the host inject meme trash into the discussion. 030
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026“Other reportable comp“ would include eg tuition reimbursement, long/short term disability, life insurance, but in this example it’s probably severance (if they left that year) + PTO cash-out, or maybe housing + vehicle allowance though seems too high for the latter. 100
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Yep - D includes the employer portion of health, medical, dental, vision. 110
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Even if they dont buy your argument and still insist that *some* school is doing it (or whatever dumb case they’re making), it’s apparent to everyone else that there’s no actual basis for the claim. Matt Blaze handles this deftly in regards to election security: bsky.app/profile/matt... 030
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026But that’s why the demand for specificity works so well.. since no schools are doing that it flips the burden from you proving a negative “Zero schools are helping kids secretly transition” to disproving their lie about a positive case, “No, LAUSD is not helping kids transition - see here” 130
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026But to reasonable observers, the refusal to answer a specific question comes off as evasive. Even if they protest, “Oh, so you don’t have any examples, you’re just repeating some dumb meme?” It’s not necessary to get them to admit they made it up, just to highlight the emptiness of their claims. 160
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026None of these people have any idea what they’re talking about, just operating on vibes so when you ask for specifics they crumble immediately. 0250
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026This is literally the cheat code for cutting through all the bullshit in this era — “Be specific, what exactly are you referring to” “Schools in CA are helping kids transition and hiding from their parents! Wow, I don’t believe that happens - which specific school did that?” Etc etc. 811111
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Am I misremembering or didn’t it turn out he’s not even in jail at the moment? He’s somehow home On ‘house arrest’ or equivalent even with his conviction and sentence? 111

mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Like what are the odds that Elon has a portion of SpaceX compute set aside for “personal projects” using Grok or Deepseek/Kimi to do nefarious shit in terms of meddling in elections or chasing conspiracy theories about various nonprofits and rights orgs he hates? 110
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 16/09/2026It’s a useful feature that these leading companies are pretty incompetent and open though.. when the OS models trail the frontier ones by 6-9mos, it gives you a glimpse into what will be possible to a legitimate bad actor with a big budget in 18mos. 100
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 16/09/2026We went from AIs being shitty Tamagotchi chatbots to autonomously pwning security companies in like 2 years – that’s certainly remarkable by any definition. It doesn’t portend AGI or anything hysterical like the Skynet proclamations but we’re in a very different world today. 1150
mikeydoubled @mdlp.bsky.social · 16/09/2026An AI system chaining multiple exploits including zero-days to hack a company is certainly remarkable… if you’re the Chinese MOD, and you see Altman hanging out with Trump - how confident are you that your systems are sufficiently hardened? Likewise if you’re the CIA looking at OS models? 1180
