its presidential pokemon and, now that they have trump, they plan on breeding him hard.

looks like the house of saud has placed its bet.

no one is trying to swing them - they are completely lost to rationality. mobilization is the goal and, I can tell you, there is zero fire out there to mobilize an anti-trump turnout.

many may vote for the genocide enabler over the actual clown-fascist, but we are fucked as a country when, in the face of blatant authoritarianism, the best we can put up is biden. un-fucking-real.

?! and this is supposed to be good news? no change against the narcissist, sexual abuser, traitor, convicted career criminal trying to squat in the seat of power that controls one of the most lethal nuclear arsenals?

are you kidding me?! this is what the Democrats are accepting? anyone proclaiming this as positve news is as delusional as the magas, perhaps more so.

I am shocked this had not (yet) been downvoted into oblivion like so many other posts clearly pointing out the obvious path we are on.

anyone blinding cheering this farce on is as complicit as the actual fascists.

no, I don’t have any answers. decades of slow corruption of anything approximating democratic rule have brought us to this point and don’t see a sane path forward.

damn, that was rough.

ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

but seriously, modern FOSS distros (yes, debian is modern, damnit!) are amazingly good. you have an exceptionally high probablility of switching and staying switched.

Don’t switch one senile old fuck out with another.

to be fair, Bernie has not lost a single step but, as a pragmatist, I think he would say his most effective position moving forward is in the senate.

I think a shit flinging monkey is a step up from drumpf, but unfortunately the electoral system may disagree with us.

the fact that we are here, facing down a possible loss to the worst shit-stain of a proto-human is an irreconcilable indictment of the current democratic party and its owners.

phew! good thing I still have a few 386sx AMI BIOS boards handy. no ones shopping around zero days on those anymore, right?

post links to the comment page (which on ars is always good), but here is the actual article link

from the same comedy troupe that brought you last seasons blockbuster hit, “the sanctity of marraige” comes the sequel, “for everyone but you!”.

there was a mental word search, glitch in the matrix moment right at that point - read into that what you will, cuz these days all options are valid.

“insinuate” is absolutely the very best word, but publicly one has to walk the fine line between complicity and hair-on-fire alarm, and so “initiate” came out of her mouth.

for the record, I think we are past the face-melting stage.

from the video…

I think we need to be very cautious with the AI narrative where we are being lead to confuse mass surveillance with intelligence and by doing so initiate these corporate technologies into the core of our social and governmental institutions.

so voice typing, huh? not really sure it matters at this point. I use an open source keyboard, but my inputs go right into the OS of the worlds largest spy organization.

on the other hand… this is a great opportunity to hone your handwriting and memory skills.

termux is absolutely fantastic. if you like a nice, clean CLI then run (don’t walk) to f-droid and install.

vote for anyone who will verifiably support ranked choice or instant run-off voting. not an absolute cure, but one of our most powerful weapons moving forward.

surely its obvious by now - “bibi” just wants to solve the starving palestinian kid crisis with american bullets. gotta throw a tantrum so kind old uncle sam will feed more quarters into the genocide machine and keep those pesky Israeli elections at bay.

edit: from the article

US Representative Richie Torres (D-NY) wrote a message to Netanyahu on X, stating “If you are looking to undermine the bipartisanship of the US-Israel relationship, then release a public video attacking the Biden Administration, which, despite hysterical opposition from the far left, has held firm in support of Israel for eight months and counting.

hey, NY… you gonna do anything about this conflicted, homicidal piece of sh*t?
