This is evidence that the US political system does not function.

There are two paths forward;

• Burn down the entire thing (which Trump and frenemies are currently doing).
• rebuild and reform the existing system (which can happen by voters voting for progressive centralist candidates in local and state representatives en-mass (like in NYC).

I would not call Zohran Mandani a socialist. I would call him a progressive rational centralist.

The government gets kickbacks.

Aussies can avoid illegal gambling by saving their money and not gambling at all.

Brainwashing can only go so far. At some point, (such as targeting civilian children) any sane soldier will crack and say “No”.

He can’t monetise on PeerTube. He will be able to get sponsors, but YouTube revenue will dry up.

Feudalism is based on Chivalry where the Lords have a mutual responsibility to their subjects and serfs.

They are not trying to create feudal kingdoms, they are trying to establish little dictatorships.

I’m pretty sure he is doing it on purpose now.

He is trying to destroy the country. No one can be that stupid.

I don’t see a bio security camera.

All I see is someone’s new camping trailer. It probably already has a dual battery system preinstalled!

Me too, and Copilot is disabled on my work computer (and then magically reenabling itself)

Please tell me how to disable Data Detectors on MacOS, sometimes a number is just a numerical string and is not a Phone number; actually it it quite unusual for it to ever be a phone number. Even if it is a phone number, I would love to be able to just copy and paste it without it trying to connect to my phone and prank call some poor sucker.

Substitute “Pie” “Couches”

Sounds like it was using DCAU YouTube videos as training data.

I was always advised that “NATO standard” was instant coffee with 2 sugars and milk.

Very glad to hear that you are OK.

We all make mistakes, there are always surprises from road users (including pedestrians, animals, cyclists) behaving in ways you do not expect.

**Number one rule of driving; Don’t try to occupy the same space as someone else.

Number two rule of driving; Always assume road users are all idiots…

Number three rule of driving; …including yourself.**

All the driver-assistance systems in the world cannot help you there, because they are also programmed by idiots.
