How would they get the message out even if they had one? Republicans own the media.

By the way, Republican Senators know better, and they should be stopping a lot of what's happening. But they don't want to, because they think it'll end their power. Joke's on them: that's ending anyway under this r

There's no one reason this is being done. Trump has tariffs stuck in his brain because he remembers some discussion from the early 1980s about it. And some of the people around him want to destroy the United States in its current form

On what basis do you think 2028 elections will be free and fair? Congress is going to try to mass-disenfranchise women before the 2026 midterms. They've stated this on the record. Dems aren't going to gain control of congress in t

Buyers absolutely care about energy efficiency and insulation from noise, and neither can be addressed fully without upgraded windows. It's one of the first things experienced homebuyers should look at -- if the windows are 1980's

Are they? I mean, none of them are very objective. Except that #5 is objectively not true. Apple execs pay attention to DaringFireball. What he posts matters for that reason alone.

Yes. Even when all parties are directionally aligned and fundamentally agree on everything it can be a nightmare simply to get all the ducks in a row. But if I understand this correctly, this is just a way to allow for high density housing;

Brown green card holders have it worst, but white, native-born US citizens are fucked too. The agent can decide you look Mexican to him; the agent can decide you're not sufficiently enthusiastic about Trump. And if there's no due

I can't believe this actually has a name (is this an attempt to make fetch happen?) and it's not considered an anti-pattern. This sort of preprocessor/code mixing is impossible to debug and maintain; most senior C++ programme

I think there'd be some value in asking each of the major chatLLMs whether vaccines cause autism. If the answer is not some unequivocal variation of "no, aside from fraudulent and discredited research," you have a serious pro

It’s not anachronistic to make this complaint about a product still being sold in 2025. The product name is now an anachronism.

A venerable and completely reasonable approach for resource-constrained environments and/or programs with very small memory requirements (kilobytes).

Yeah, the TV series is not as well done as the radio show but is pretty good. The Guide entries are the best part. It’s a real shame the movie totally failed to understand the concept, and also didn’t match the visual wit of the TV series.

I second “Becoming Steve Jobs.” It actually gives insight into him, rather than just regurgitating what Isaacson thinks are the facts.

Genuine question: what would you have him do at that point instead? It’s notable that he did that after all the other billionaires did it. Apple can’t go alone on this, they’d be taken apart by a right wing smear campaign (and possibly viol

That data is outdated. That support has eroded since then, and will continue to erode now that Trump has stopped equivocating (lying) about his position on Ukraine. Hate to break it to you, but people in the GOP will support anything Trump

If anyone needs an alternative: the current Kobo lineup is great. You can buy ebooks directly through the Kobo store, and they work well. And if you want to tinker with the OS, you can.

No idea if Asimov’s got worse, but what we’re living right now is so much stupider than any science fiction. AI, but it’s not actually intelligent and it often produces garbage. A fascist takeover of the US from the inside by the dumbest bi

This is very likely. Bezos’ early investment in political lobbying really paid off for them; bought them a judge who effectively killed competition from Apple, and they’ve been free of antitrust scrutiny since 2005. Won’t help them much und
