This is why is so dangerous calling him dumb. It brings that benefit of the doubt, that "he didn't know that this is not allowed", that "he is just dumb and did not know better", "he can't control himself" etc etc.

He then exploits every single opportunity given and avoids any punishment (he still did not get any!)

Thy don't share border so one can't invade each other, they can only fly missiles and rockets between each other.

That depends. Did he stop kissing his ring?

Frankly, if there was a transsexual M13 member that illegally crossed the border, murdering several border guards and in her way ate a cat, as long as she would express support of trump she wouldn't have anything to worry about.

Check 270towin.com, popularity wise he has no chance. Unfortunately we have electoral college and with that he has 50/50 chance currently.

That's scarily too close.

Edit: this is why it is important to make sure you vote. Historically electoral college typically matches popular vote.

The manipulation is possible when the turnout is low. The gerrymandering also works the best with a low turnout, and if turnout is unexpectedly high it can backfire and turn otherwise red counties into blue. This is why it is important to vote, even in the states you think your vote doesn't matter.

What's ironic is that the non voting population is so high, that if they all turned in and voted they would override everyone else who normally does.

Well, given that they have access to Internet via starlink, all they would have to do is set up a website and list the IDs, then block everything that's not there.

They got me shipment? Add them to the list? No longer own the device? Remove it.

This looks like stunts to help trump boost his numbers. Notice that he wants media to talk about him. The documents from the last one did not contain anything that we already didn't know and likely were leaked by his campaign.

It worked both ways though. But in the end, did it actually do much? The times I remember when fill buster was used ultimately the majority still managed to pass the legislation.

I think what would be better is that when there's a stalemate it would trigger a new election like it is done in some countries.

He was criticizing the response since the beginning?

Frankly I was initially supporting them, as I am against Hamas but Israel lost the objective, didn't destroy Hamas and didn't get hostages out. So what was all that for?

Here's one video talking about it: https://youtu.be/NdPjS3EvcFU

There videos of actual expressions which were spectacular.

The biggest one registered as 2.8 rather on Richter scale

Ukrainians destroyed it just as the ammunition from North Korea arrived.

Edit: here's the video of the explosion https://youtu.be/igdgA-LHZHU

LOL was about to make similar comment when saw the picture.

LOL, that ammunition dump explosion must have really burned him.

 

So I ran Power Delete Suite as I periodically do. I have it configured to edit a comment and then delete it. It deletes comments that are older than 1 week old.

What was unusual was that within minutes I got the red envelope. And looking at it there was a response to a comment that I wrote 2 years ago.

So first thing is that as many were saying Reddit undeletes comments. I initially ignored that I saw some comments that I thought were deleted, but I assume it was because subreddits were locked and that's why they were invisible to Power Delete Suite, but this was on r/programming which was unlocked for quite some time (not sure if it ever was locked).

Second thing is the response within minutes.

So my 2 year old comment still exists and it's not showing up on my profile. I wouldn't even know about it is not for that response.

Of course this could be a coincidence, the account that responded to me is 9 years old, the content of it seems normal, although I saw comments on r/ChatGPT.

Though the timing bugs me off. If the comment is not from a real person maybe when Reddit restored it the AI code thought it was a new comment and responded to it.

Another thing that contributes to my suspicion of chatbots being deployed is that I noticed since the API protest and after they unlocked subreddits is that I get more upvotes and more responses than I used to.

Anyone observed something similar?
