ok, explainer in layman terms: When we write code for the company, there is AI that is supposed to check if the code is good. Turned out what AI does is basically googles "is this code good?"

So in GitHub we have a workflow where Copilot does PR reviews. I took a peek into Copilot session, and apparently this mf searches the Web, and consults Stack Overflow.

Collins voted against the war because she knew Fetterman would "yes", and her "no" vote was a safe bet just for show.

who knows if jackson can win this thing but i am glad that he is making clear that susan collins's whole scam is to do everything she can to make life worse for mainers and then take credit for mitigating it in the slightest way possible

No mention of T'Pring? And of course the withering scorn of T'Pau
T'Pring from Star Trek: TOS. An attractive Vulcan woman in a high-necked silver dress and elaborate updo, looking down her nose with the sort of disdain that would make Prince a shade envious.T'Pau, an older Vulcan woman with elegant cheekbones in an ornate robe and mitre, holding a black carved staff with a clear stone at the top, and looking with absolute contempt at the annoying person in being of her (probably Kirk).

Desktop Ubuntu seems to be more consumer-friendly, easy GUI setup, easy GUI management. And excellent audio and video support lately.

8-year old laptop can get you only so far as a server, just finished a monumental migration of all services to this new toy
A silver Minisforum NAB9 mini PC sits on a wooden shelf beneath a monitor. Its front panel has a USB-C port, two USB-A ports, a headphone jack, and a power button glowing blue. The top cover displays the MINISFORUM logo and the instruction “Open the top cover by pressing it with your hands” above two red hand symbols. A black cable crosses the shelf in front.

The problem with your company being ran by pilled reactionaries is that when you run into an actual problem, the only response is more pilled reactionaryism.
"Trump mobile was informed they had been breached, they then replied with 'We have no team to handle this' and that anyone who hacks them are a terrorist," the group wrote "Well unfortunately for them, all 36 1 5 customers and their PIl, alongside telecom details are now up for grabs. Feel free to take a gander at it yourself, don't be shy, we (and them) certainly aren't stopping you."

Relative got a $500 check from US Treasury and a shocking letter full of lies signed by Trump and ending with "May God bless you". Basically a pre-electoral bribe. News reports say they're sending almost a million of these. Full text in alt below. (I told him to cash it quick before it bounces.)
Dear [name],

For years, the Biden Administration overcharged you to fund the operation of HealthCare.gov. That money belongs to hard-working Americans, not the Government, and now, I am returning it to you!

With this Historic Action, my Administration is taking the surplus funds that accumulated from the Obamacare ''Premium Tax" and issuing a one-time $500 REFUND to Americans who use the HealthCare.gov platform to purchase their health insurance, but who do not receive Taxpayer Subsidies to help pay for their Coverage. You have paid into this flawed System, and now you are finally getting something back.

Healthcare Dollars should benefit Patients, not Insurance Companies or Government Bureaucrats. Since returning to office, I have fought to lower Healthcare Costs, increase Accountability, and Put Patients First. Through TrumpRx, we are delivering massive discounts on Household Prescription Drugs, and my Most-Favored-Nation Pricing Agreements have already saved Americans more than 1 Billion Dollars on much-needed Medications. We also secured an unprecedented 50 Billion Dollar investment to transform Rural Healthcare, expanded access to Health Saving Accounts for millions of people on Obamacare, and restored Pnce Transparency, all while roofing out the Waste, Fraud, and abuse across our Healthcare System.

I am proud to return your money to you, and I will never stop fighting to put the American People FIRST, restore Affordability, protect your hard-earned money, and lower the Cost of Healthcare.

May God bless you, and may He continue to bless the United States of America!

Sincerely,

[signed] 

DONALD J. TRUMP
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
