I wish there were a setting to block links from specific sources. I have a decent keyword filter that blocks posts with keywords in the title, but not in the link. It’s so annoying coming across these nypost links. Nice Public Enemy link.

The chuckle fucks in the White House don’t even pretend to give a shit about people anymore.
President Trump’s Director of the National Economic Council of the United States Kevin Hassett is being criticized for saying if the war against Iran were to be extended that “it wouldn’t really disrupt the US economy very much at all.”
Hassett added that a longer war “would hurt consumers, and we’d have to think about, you know, if that continued, what we’d have to do about that, but that’s really the last of our concerns right now because we’re very confident that this thing is going ahead of schedule.”


I agree with you completely and would just add that the last I read, there are more empty residences than there are homeless. Only developers think building more is the answer.


Glad to read that it’s not just me.


I can’t remember if I’ve seen a house without a garage and/or driveway.


Sure, but it only taxes a gallon $0.50 more than Texas.


Yeah, should have been “Trust us…or not. Doesn’t matter, we’ll do what we want regardless.”


It’s hilarious…I meant to say horrifying…to see all the morons and imbeciles full-throating the appeal to the imaginary rational Republican as a way forward. It’s like they still believe in trickle down theory or some such already proven false bullshit.


2-days seems pretty average for fighting in my experience.


By the way, LibreOffice also supports OOXML, so… do with that what you want.
Yes, from the article:
LibreOffice currently handles ODF files perfectly and handles OOXML files better than Windows 365 and other software handle ODF files. Poor handling of ODF files “forces” users towards OOXML files, thus pushing them towards lock-in and protecting a business worth around $30 billion (because lock-in functions like a pair of handcuffs).


Reminds me a bit of this older “breakthrough” https://petapixel.com/2021/11/01/new-5d-disc-storage-can-store-500tb-of-data-for-13-billion-years/


Copilot steals from all the code on github.


I’ve said similar about Hillary winning in 2016. Republicans were already drawing up articles of impeachment. trump or no trump, the country had already fallen into a shithole sewer and was barely keeping it’s head above water. Still would have been nice to see Sanders get the nod. Just for some glimmer of hope.


I wonder if just a larger percentage of Gen Z thinks standardized testing is bullshit and don’t even try. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I strongly believe the internet has been a greater evil than benefit to the world, and also believe cell phones have done serious damage to attention spans and focus. That is to say, I’m firmly at the “get off my lawn you damn kids” stage of life. But at the same time I admire so much of the younger generations that don’t buy into the “work hard and it pays off” bullshit that I was raised with.


I’m not sure what the fix is, aside from a foundational change in society, UBI, etc… When I was growing up, the paper was a couple bucks a month. Really cheap and there weren’t all the online alternatives. Reporting was pretty solid. Then the internet came along embracing the capitalist race to the bottom. My mom (80+ years old) still gets a Sunday paper, instead of daily, but I know that she is one of the only people on her block who even get that. And to be honest, the newspaper coverage is pretty shitty.
There has to be a way to pay reporters to do in depth reporting, taking weeks or months to do all the digging and research, but that takes a financial backing that billionaires could do, but aren’t interested in doing. And it seems more and more people don’t put their shrinking disposable income in support.
I’m in no way saying you’re wrong, I just don’t see a solution. We now just jump from outrage to outrage, informed by idiot tiktokers and uneducated ideologues. But it’s free and flashy…squirrel!


I don’t know that he’s dumb, but that makes him even worse.


Most of the weird complaints about Dems, by the nutters, are just…weird. There is always something legitimate to bitch about, but they just manufacture some bullshit and then focus on that.
Don’t you follow and obey Orange Jesus?
