OP said “no hardware vendor”, not “ no networked hardware vendor”.

“Why does this microwave oven cost $1500?”
“Two reasons. The first is that it has to have a full network stack to allow it to download software from competing appliance vendors. The second is the cost that the manufacturer had to bear to develop software for every single other microwave sold. There are some pretty weird architectures out there, and they had to hire a whole bunch of programmers.”
People keep complaining that solar and wind give us “too much electricity at the wrong time”, causing power prices to go negative (as if this is a problem). Having a beneficial process like co2 removal that you can do at any time of day (the co2 isn’t going anywhere) that would soak up all that energy seems like a win win.
If they own infowars, they’ll come into possession of a lot of information about the fans, won’t they? Mail them targeted deprogramming material.
Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr
He’s doing that now. He will do it if he is sentenced, and ALSO if he doesn’t get jail time. Appeasing him gets you exactly nothing.
( his campaign has claimed they already raised 55m since the conviction).
His campaign claims a lot of things, none of them true. It would be surprising if this turned out to be the first time they weren’t lying.
It’s why I think he didn’t get really anything bad when he violated the gag order so much.
I think the judge was going overboard to give every benefit of the doubt to Trump so there would be no basis for appeal. I hope that’s the case.
He can’t be worse than the ones that are already our overlords.
Pretty much all of human history would like a word.
Are they going to give him his $60B bonus now?
If you thought that making this comment was a good idea, you may be too misogynistic for life.
You did. I jumped the gun after reading the first paragraph. Sorry.
The only reason he’s gotten away with it so far is that people thought he was rich. But since it’s all loans, it turns out he’s not. As a result, he’s starting to have to play by the normal people rules, and that’s going to suck for him.
Third of all, this is a state judgement, not a federal one. So he can’t pardon himself.
$99/year is a lot of you’re just doing it to side load. If you’re using all the tools available, it’s not that much.
They are currently fighting the war. And winning it, because we keep pretending they aren’t. When they go low and we go high, they get what they want and fascism gets further up the beach.
And no they aren’t going to vote for Trump. They’d likely not vote at all. And yes they know what that means but on the scale of genocide vs genocide it’s not like it can get worse for them.
Anybody who thinks in any situation “it can’t get worse” has absolutely no concept of history.
“Yeah, he’s a convicted felon, but we can’t put him in jail because that would inconvenience the Secret Service.”
Nope. Sorry it’s a burden for them, but they can figure it out. Make a prison out of the brig on an abandoned military base in the middle of nowhere with him as the only prisoner. It worked for Rudolph Hess.
Yeah, good luck with that, Nikki. They’re stupid, yes, but they’re very good at racism and misogyny.
So it all comes down to “do Republicans want to win badly enough that they can suppress their racism and misogyny and vote for a woman of color”. Republicans like winning, but NEVER bet against racism and misogyny with that crew.
Also, a large fraction of the base WILL vote for Trump, and only Trump, whether he’s on the ballot or not, which hurts Haley. And there’s no evidence that the R’s have won over a single new voter since 2020, when they lost.
This all turns on how badly Biden does with HIS base, and that is currently pretty worrying. Democratic voters like unproductive petulance at least as much as Republican voters like racism and misogyny.
So many good shows. All of these, but also: Slow Horses, Bad Sisters, Schmigadoon, and Shrinking.
“The media has wildly succeeded in its effort to misinform many voters” would be more correct. This has been a relentless, deliberate strategy. If they had just been incompetent it would not be this lopsidedly wrong.
