Respectfully, talking about the Democratic party 100 years ago is an incredibly shaky basis for your argument. Packing courts with partisans is malicious and power hungry no matter how you spin it. "Restoring balance" is rhetoric

You are trying to put words in my mouth for partisan points. Don't. Mitch McConnell talking about "the judges project" is miles away from appointments under Democratic administrations. You can read about it: https:/&#

Well also, the party in power has spent the last 30 years specifically packing courts at all levels with friendly partisan judges. And openly talking about doing so while doing it.

One time, I sold a bunch of stock options because my company was being spun off into an independent entity. "Use it or lose it" kind of situation. As part of the spin-off the company was also renamed. So it created a slightly w

Dave Lobue and Justin Mealey should be forever shamed for the farce they put up during the hearings in Georgia. https://www.charliekirk.com/news/georgia-data-scientist-prov... If you check their work based on the publi

Not just that political reason - you can scale a workforce up and down much more quickly with them.

My favorite egregious accent snafu was The Wind and the Lion where he was supposed to be Moroccan tribal leader. Second favorite was the mad barking which was supposed to be Japanese in Rising Sun .

Listen. If you're watching Connery in a film in 1990, you've had decades to learn to suspend disbelief regarding his accent skills.

I come from a family of hunters. We have those types, but we also have the types which just love the outdoors. Even the latter type has some manly-man schtick to their love of hunting, but it's partly about spending time with male fr

My language was anything but extreme. I would make the case based on your response that you would jump to some assumptions: > You don’t consider the two obvious answers, in that they see it differently or they have higher priorities, a

Welcome to the fishing forum flame wars. Many divisive topics, such as catch and release or eating young fish ("bucket heads"), barbless hooks, etc. Hell, even fly fishermen get into internet slap fights over certain kinds of fli

I'm not talking about my city - I'm talking about the people on my fishing forums, or who I meet down by the river. The talking point about Brooklyn is about as dumb a "Gotcha" as you'd expect in: > political dis

It's not much of a generalization if I'm talking about the people in my community. YMMV.

I've observed this weird cognitive dissonance with outdoorsmen, since I am quite fond of fishing. They tend to be a pretty hardcore MAGA bunch, but also don't like pollution because it messes up their sport. When you ask them abo

There is a balance to be maintained for sure. I am known for bemoaning the almost-exclusively scammy ads on Facebook (and getting downvoted for it here). But - also - my wife and I opened a restaurant recently. We need exposure. We are b

What jumps out at me is that it doesn't touch OneDrive. You could argue two potential reasons for this: 1. This script removes only AppX packages. OneDrive is an *.msi package 2. OneDrive is something they reinstall if you remove it,

This was Naperville, IL. So that kind of behavior is very risky. You could get sued for 10 million dollars. Or these days, deported to Aurora.

Completely agree. The past 15 years or so have really opened my eyes to how power really works. The powerful are incentivized to use that power for their own benefit. Those without power do not even get to have a light shone on their poor

I used to live near a nice downtown with a riverwalk. I liked to take my guitar and go play under the bridge at night. The bridge was concrete and the reverb was crazy good. (Does that make me a troll? A troll posting on the internet??

Totally agree. LLM's are just automating that infringement process. If you make money off it, it's no longer fair use; it's infringement. Even if you don't make money off it, it's not automatically fair use. My ow

I wanted to try one of those, but I was put off by the scroll bar being above the ball. It seems unnatural to have to reach over to scroll. What as your experience been, if you (or anyone else) has one?
