Fountain where the water comes out of the neck?

Well yeah, it is far enough south to be as hot and humid as Satan's taint for large swaths of time, covered in insects like mosquitoes, and it is filled to the brim with corrupt, hypocritical politicians, and the ignorant masses that keep voting for them.

Who cares, he votes for the Republican talking points most of the time anyway. Grow a spine already and make it official.

What he wants is the party to cross the made up line he has drawn in the sand so he can switch affiliation “guilt free” and be able to say “ look they made me do it” when pressed about it.

Time to add LG to the list of computer display OEMs I will avoid like the plague on principle.

It is because the LG software is in one of the Windows Update channels.

Once Windows detects the LG display the OS pulls down the LG software and installs it like any other OS update.

Essentially they are abusing something Microsoft provides to better deploy legitimate feature and security updates for firmware to push out their data mining and malware packages.

This will never happen to me. Tucking in your shirt when its not a special occasion is heresy.

I hate talking points like this. They don't "own" anyone. They just expose a simpleton world view every bit as disingenuous and damaging as the trickle down economics crowd.

No one, and I mean no one, isn't a supporter of socialist policies because it is handing out free shit or more accurately put, shit obtained using money gathered from the masses, they are mad because that "shit" is not something everyone can easily produce an infinite supply of. Every argument against socialist policies lead back to the same fact that root cause, scarcity of resources.

You want to solve hunger, homelessness, etc come up with a way to feed and house people that can't do for themselves without taking from the masses in a way that ends up in massive corruption, debt, and market collapse.

The root issues are limited resources and a society that preaches individuality above all else in every situation. Until those 2 things are no longer issues then socialist policies are just deferred pain and more debt, just like conservative tax cuts.

Pre AI driven ram/nand increases: < $500 probably. Now, probably >= $1000.

Fired the Democrat, but "allowed the Republican to resign". That is some petty shit. Not that it surprises me coming from Trump and the hairs he has hanging on to his balls like DeWitt.

Can't wait to see how much phantom voter fraud his administration uncovers exclusively in states run by people Trump personally doesn't like. With no mention of how they know there is any fraud to begin with since it seems like they have fired everyone on the Federal side that had any direct insight into elections with this announcement.

I'm sure someone in the media will get right on that line of thought when the time comes. /s

This decision is final. Their place in history is settled.

I find those last 2 sentences amusing and puzzling. It is like he thinks he is the decider of what society at large is going to care about at any given moment. That level of ego must hurt your neck to carry around everyday.

 

You would think a Pastor would have a serious problem with that. Only in Trumps America.

 

I wonder if there is something subpar about whoever Google is getting the batteries from for the A series phones.

 

If its not more blatant ways to display ads or AI Google isn't working on anything it would seem.

 

As if those AI overviews weren't already useless enough.

 

It feels dirty to agree with an ISP on something. But even the worst corporations are on the right side of something from time to time I suppose.
