It seems like he is just puffing out his chest to hide his belly. Probably because he knew he was on camera.

Even with a live fact check requirement, would you trust Fox News to fact check? They’d probably use “alternative facts”.

Maybe… but in the long term advertisers aren’t going to be willing to spend as much on a platform if they know that ads are easily blocked.

There doesn’t even need to be any kind of cap, they just need to pay more taxes and be prohibited from buying politicians.

The charging team thing seems like pretty standard power trip behavior from an exec, not that it’s good… seems like the plan is to hire some of those people back and continue to invest in charging infrastructure.

What seems really braindead to me is the Cybertruck… they could have made a normal mid-size pickup and been absolutely killing it right now. I probably would have already bought one despite my opinion of Musk.

It really is that bad. Watch the videos of Biden from the Democratic convention in 2008 if anyone has any doubts.

I remember in 2015 I thought the most pathetic ballot would be Hillary Clinton vs. Jeb Bush because it would be like we lived in a hereditary monarchy. I had no idea how bad Trump was and underestimated him bigly.

Still, since we know fascism is characterized by the near worship of a strongman leader, I’m perfectly fine taking the opposite approach. If Biden is in cognitive decline, so what? As long as his administration continues to do good work, his administration gets my vote.

Microsoft is confused.

It hurt itself in it’s confusion.

Sold in grams for small amounts, then back to Imperial for larger amounts.

The article mentions he worked for Dean Phillips’ campaign, but it’s not clear whether he was at the time these crimes were committed.

Some of this is just because some of these frameworks and technologies have been around for a while and they iterate frequently. I see a ton of Azure content that is obsolete after only a few years.

You’re probably right about that, but he’s so blatantly crossing the line in ways that would result in a regular Joe getting thrown in jail…

Can we survive as a society of he continues to make a mockery of the rule of law? Isn’t it important to show that the wealthy are not above the law? Every day he breathes free air is evidence that the justice system is broken beyond repair and it gives fuel to those who want a violent revolution to burn the system down.

In addition, the company doesn’t invest in growing and retaining the rest of the development team for 20 years until said developer is near retirement, then finds that they need to hire 10 developers because 2 need to replace said person and 8 need to redo everything they did.

It’s been nearly 10 years since you needed to develop with C# on Windows.

New versions of .NET have been cross platform with a free IDE since 2016.

Switching to an IT degree at the last minute, would have been a history teacher otherwise.

I primarily use GitHub CLI to interact with the GitHub API, not Git. I don’t really see it as an extension of the Git CLI, which I use much more frequently. Everything you can do with it can also be done through their REST API.

I use it for things that aren’t really git features, like:

Syncing repository admin, pull request, and branch control settings across multiple repositories

Checking the status of self-hosted actions runners

Creating pull requests, auto-approving them

I think the new Ahsoka show should have been animated, in the style of Clone Wars OR Rebels.

I think Rosario and the other stars did a good job, there are just things that would have been better in animation, like lightsaber battles.

I second the recommendations here about finding an activity that you like. For me it was rec sports. Gets me out of the house a few days a week, and for me it was an activity to help me stay active but also a reason TO get fit. I wanted to feel less beat up after playing, so I started working out and stretching regularly.

I also had trouble with getting to the gym, and had trouble with focus and picking workouts, so I had success with P90x. It’s all workouts you can do at home with some adjustable dumbbells. I think I got a deal on the streaming subscription to Beachbody for 100$ for the year. Then I just followed the program and the workout calendar. They have a number of different programs on there, if you want to get ripped I recommend P90x, if you just want to do some sort of workout for 30 minutes a day I’d recommend p90x3 because it’s easier to stick to.

That was a good start for me, but I ultimately settled on just picking my favorite moves from the program and I switch between upper and lower body workouts every day because I found I was consistently skipping certain days of the programs.

There’s at least a veneer of legitimacy over the Florida supreme court deciding to award the state’s votes to Bush in 2000. Does it suck and should it be fixed? Yes. Was it illegal and dangerous to democracy? No, or at least not as bad as Jan 6 and the other crimes Trump and friends committed to try to steal the 2020 election.

Public opinion was very much in favor of the war in Afghanistan after 9/11. Maybe not so much Iraq, but it’s hard to blame Bush squarely for those wars when they had bipartisan support.

Bush is done doing damage to our country, and might actually be considered a voice of reason compared to today’s Republicans.

It’s definitely already Trump, and he’s not even done doing damage yet.

Even if Republicans elect someone who is identical to Trump in his words, views, and actions, that person would still be better for the country than Trump. It’s critically important for the justice department to hold him accountable for the insurrection and trying to overthrow our democracy, or it WILL happen again.

People should really stop conflating anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism. Unfortunately it’s very common and even part of the official classifications used by some countries. To me it seems obvious that this is another attempt to cut off any criticism of the state of Israel by labeling critics as anti-Semitic. Here’s an interesting read about how flawed that logic is:
