Yep, and the "block everything" McConnell senate of Obama's terms would have allowed that reform too. You could conceivably make that argument about Biden for 2 fucking years if not for Sinnema(sp?) and that chucklefuck from WV.

The Dems are feckless but the president can't just decree shit. (well, unless you're trump I guess)

A state governor just authorized vehicle ramming attacks against probably his own citizens. Disgusting and disgraceful.

Man, that's gotta be hell on any wildlife left living in the areas in which it's used. (I mean, I get the necessity, but dang)

Tillers too when this war ends (with Russia's defeat) and it's time to plant crops.

Late to the party but Verkada. Block their domain at the front door and don't look back. The highest pressure sales tactics, cold calling everybody in the company they can find on LinkedIn / website / data broker lists. Started calling our board of directors at home and their day jobs asking why we weren't returning messages. Verkada can burn in hell.

It really sucks ass when you have a Cisco voice system. I can't even get a quote from my Cisco VAR to update b/c Broadcom isn't replying to small quote requests, but are pulling shit like this for old-ass v6.5 installations like ours that only have 2 hosts and 6 vm's.

Wall-e was a single unit carrying on the task of thousands (tens, hundreds of thousands? We don't know if others were still functioning or we're global). He was doing the task he was built for. EVE's task was completely different - visit the planet every so often and search for the sustainability of life. She did that as per her programming. Different tasks.

The bill is a thousand pages, not this clause.

Throw those two taintstains from Texas in there too: Abbot and Paxton

Which is why they're not getting the requested aid... Well, actually, the local emergency manager has to make the disaster declaration to the state and have all their local and mutual aid resources exhausted. Then if the state approves a state disaster, the governor can request a presidential disaster declaration (PDD).

IF the cheeto agreed, that would free up a willing FEMA to respond to requests. However, we now have a FEMA Director that wants to eliminate the agency, so who knows. The whole thing is a shitshow.

Ahem...
